Portola Hotel & Spa at Monterey Bay

10/10 Excellent
"The hotel is thoughtfully designed. The lobby is beautiful. The location is great. We really enjoyed our stay.

Monterey Beach Hotel, A Tribute Portfolio Hotel

10/10 Excellent
"We loved Monterrey Beach Hotel. The complimentary happy hour, and s’mores, and electric bikes were all an unreal surprise! Loved the fires at night too. Oh… I almost forgot—- the DOLPHINS! We sat on the beach and watched them flap their tails, jump about 5 feet in the air, and swim together in their pods(?). Seriously, we watched about 30 dolphins for about 2-3 hours in the late afternoon. We will fondly remember this hotel. (Only one little negative to report… outside clean up crew should be a little more attentive. There was some trash along the route to the beach that stayed there during our entire visit.). Hope we can return…"

What's the difference between 5-star and 4-star hotels in Monterey?
If you decide to holiday at a 4-star hotel in Monterey, you'll usually find plenty of conveniences to make sure you're relaxed, such as a pool, gym and restaurant. You can enjoy high-quality service and upscale accommodation. Opt for a 5-star hotel and you'll get a few more bells and whistles — think on-site spas, concierge assistance and indulgent turndown services.
