We stay with Marriott frequently, and this hotel explains why. A more than helpful [friendly and fun] staff, nice and comfortable rooms, and a great location make this a great value. We'll return here happily.

I love this hotel. All you have to do is cross the street and you are at the Wharf where all the restaurants and shops are. They have valet parking for $20, worth the money because otherwise you have to park 2 blocks away, not an easy task with little children in tow. They are fast and helpful. Our room... More

I stayed here one night for business last week and wished I didn't have to leave. One of the nicer Marriott hotels in the system. Only missing was a concierge level, but they gave me a free breakfast in the restaurant, so all was good. Will be back to explore the sights which are all in walking distance.

We wish you had more time in Monterey as well! There is so much to explore, and one night does not do it justice. Thank you for the great review and room tip though (we like to face the ocean as often as possible). Glad you enjoyed your breakfast, and we can't wait to have you back for vacation instead... More

I was treated very well. I am gold status at Marriott but rarely write reviews. I was treated well. Upgraded room, breakfast, perfect location, it was great. The car valet, the front desk and the restaurant staff could not have been better. Thank you

We stayed here for one night recently during a road trip through California. We stay frequently at Marriotts because we like the easy to use rewards program. We were pleased that we were able to book a last minute Saturday night stay using reward points. We did pay $20 for the valet parking as anticipated and we paid for wifi,... More

Typical Marriott property with fluffy comfy beds. Great location. We were celebrating our anniversary, so we got a complimentary upgrade to a roof top corner suite where we found a chilled bottle of champagne with chocolate dipped strawberries awaiting us. Front desk and valet were so friendly and nice. The only thing is that they do not have in room... More

This Marriott is in a great location in the center of Monterey within easy walking distance of the conference center, the bay and the downtown bars and restaurants. It is a very short distance to Cannery Row and the Acquarium.

The Monterey Marriott is a nice hotel overall, and we've stayed there consistently for years. However, two weeks ago, I had a really, really bad experience with the valet. When I called the valet for my car, he said 5 minutes. It took 40 MINUTES for the car to arrive. I informed the attendant via phone and at least two... More

We completely understand that nobody wants to spend such a long time waiting for their car, and we are disappointed that the valet staff did not provide an explanation and let you know what was going on. We have used this as a training opportunity and emphasized that it is critical to communicate with our guest and keep them informed... More

I am partial to Marriott hotels because of their great rewards program and the quality of the stay in their hotels. The Monterey Marriott is in a fantastic location, with access to activities, shops and walking distance to the beach. I had to request a fridge and microwave because my room didn't come with one. The fridge was in poor... More

I am not a pretentious person, by any means. My partner booked the room as a sweet surprise for our weekend in Monterey. We had the "Elite Room", but do not know how it differs from others. There was a view of the Monterey Bay beyond the facility rooftop. Not much signage for facility parking which resulted in rounding the... More
