Top Sunset Center Hotel Reviews

Pine Inn

8/10 Good

"The location was excellent. Right in the middle of downtown Carmel and easy walking distance to shops and restaurants. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Unfortunately they didn’t have air conditioning and we happened to be there on a hot weekend. To be fair most hotels and stores in Carmel don’t have air conditioning. The rooms need to be refurbished and upgraded for the price. They do have a private parking lot but it’s first come first served."

Carmel Beach Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful and quaint hotel in Carmel. Very peaceful. Close to the Ocean and downtown area. Can't wait to come again"

Normandy Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Loves our stay here it was very cozy and clean. The staff was amazing will definitely stay there again."

Comfort Inn Carmel By The Sea

8/10 Good

"We stayed 2 nights, meeting old friends familiar with the area, but not with this motel. We had a ground floor room but asked to move upstairs the 2nd day because there was too much clunking around overhead. And every person walking by was a disturbance right outside the window, up and down a wooden staircase. We were easily accommodated to move rooms, with apologies. Clean smallish room, very good bed, good shower, good internet. No A/C which we could have used, noisy fan was so loud it was not usable. Parking was sketchy and very limited. It was REALLY noisy. On a hill and alot of thru-traffic, up and down, main thoroughfare. Trash trucks collecting dumpsters at 6:30am, 20ft from our open windows. Altogether, we didn't get much sleep. Older property squeezed into a crowded part of Carmel. OK if you want to shop on the main drag, not great for getting out to walk the beautiful beaches."

Carmel Mission Inn

8/10 Good

"Very good choice for families visiting Carmel."

Carmel Fireplace Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Parking lot is limited"

L Auberge Carmel

10/10 Excellent

"The staff was so friendly and operated so smoothly to get us checked in and settled in our room without having to lift a finger. All of the amenities and services were great, and we especially loved the breakfast delivered right to our room. The room was clean and roomy and the courtyard was perfect for a glass of wine in the evening. We would definitely stay here again."

Le Petit Pali at 8th Ave

8/10 Good

"Le Petit Pali was very nice and easy to stay for downtown access. The front desk staff could have been a little more friendly and helpful. The room was comfortable but really no closet for hanging clothes. We enjoyed our stay, but thought there were a few things that could have been a bit more personalized or special."

Carriage House Inn

8/10 Good

"Everything was amazing except for the Wi-Fi. Unfortunately, the signal only reached the entrance of our room, so we couldn’t reliably use it inside."
