Pros: Large room, quiet neighborhood, friendly staff
Cons: No AC, parking on site was tight for larger vehicles, breakfast was unimpressive.
6.7 Good
Pros: Location was good
Cons: There was a bad smell on our carpet. I expected the decor of the room including colour of furniture etc to be as shown online. Was quite disappointed and staff said those rooms were occupied already. Parking was tricky. The access was not very feasible.
8.8 Excellent
Pros: Clean rooms. Good bedding. On site covered parking so did not have to deal with typical Carmel parking issues. However number of parking spots seemed less than number of rooms.
Cons: Room #1 is huge, but located right on Mission Street so is quite noisy until around 11pm.

Pros: This is our fourth stay there and we just love it. The rooms are spacious, the breakfast is awesome and the staff are beyond friendly. Love the Port and cheese Happy Hour too.
Cons: Wish we could stay longer.
5.4 Okay
Pros: I like that they serve breakfast daily with a hot option. I like that the suite was obviously recently upgraded/redone.
Cons: That there was no air conditioning was a real let down and that the major windows that could have created a cross breeze were sealed shut. It made the room a hot box that, for three nights, never cooled down. Management’s excuse was “it’s never this hot in Carmel” and to look at us like we were crazy for requesting a fan. It was difficult to get to sleep there because of the warm, still air. For $2000 for three nights, they need a better plan. Wont stay again.

Cons: Breakfast was not served until late (coffee at 8:15, food at 8:30). The room I was in (#6, I think) was stuffy and dark, and it was hard to get fresh air because the windows didn't open. No chairs to sit in. Room was expensive. Parking on street.

Cons: Our particular room (#11) smelled so strongly of dog. We understand this property welcomes pets, and we love animals- unfortunately, the smell in our room was quite overwhelming. I travel with room spray (thankfully) every where we go- and I honestly could not have done without it here.

Cons: Lack of personnel - When I arrived, the front desk was vacant, but for a sign that said, "Will return in 15 minutes". After waiting 20 minutes, i called the number finally someone came. Room very small. Location is NOT "steps from Carmel Beach". It's about 9 blocks from the beach. That description is misleading. Air conditioning was not working, nor was the refrigerator. When checking out, once again, nobody at the front desk.

Pros: Place was comfortable and clean, and they have light breakfast available as well as wine tasting in the evening. Staff was friendly.
Cons: Parking is terrible, there is none. You either find a slot on the street, which is all but impossible, or walk two blocks - up and down hills - to a public parking lot. We are older, so for us this made the stay very difficult.

Cons: We would have liked the addition of a private coffee pod machine in each room, but there was tea and coffee available at the reception room 24/7 to make up for it. So this is not a complaint, just something for thoughtful consideration in the future.

Pros: Pet friendly! Clean, comfortable stay right in the heart of Carmel. Plus, you get your own parking spot! Left pleasantly surprised and would gladly stay here again,

Pros: The room was great, clean and comfortable. I liked location. Close to shops and restaurants. Walking distance to beach.
Cons: Breakfast options. I was so impressed with room and location I thought they would have more special baked goods like croissants/ scones.
6.3 Good
Pros: The room was quirky and interesting
Cons: Totally overpriced for what was just a room, and breakfast is a joke as you have to go to a property the other side of the town and the facility consists of what can only be described as a shed it’s a joke. I’ve travel the world constantly for work and have never seen anything like it especially for the price.

Pros: For 20 days , we did a road trip , in California, with my daughter 22 years old . In Carmel , for one day , we felt like we were living in a fairytale, a wonderful place. We have booked a room and they gave us an apartment with 2rooms. The breakfast served to an other hotel , very nice. The apartment was very clean and with very nice decoration. The staff perfect.

Pros: The staff was so helpful and pleasant to talk to when checking into and finding my lodge as well as at breakfast. They remembered me from the phone call to book the place and called me by name! The cleaning crew is also excellent and quite kind as well. The Forrest Lodge offered a perfectly relaxing experience in the sweet town of Carmel by-the-sea.
Cons: I enjoyed it all.
Surrounded by a furnished terrace, Forest Lodge offers free WiFi and free parking in rooms. Boutiques, bakeries and cafes on Carmel Plaza are a minutes’ walk away. Carmel Beach is 12 minutes’ walk. Opened by a private entrance, each room is decorated in ivory hues with subtle splashes of yellow. Free toiletries are provided in each room at Carmel Forest Lodge. Boasting picturesque views of cliffs on the coast, 17 Mile Drive is 12 minutes’ drive. Monterey Bay Aquarium is 10 km away from Forest Lodge.

Only half a block from the heart of Carmel, the Tally Ho is an idyllic retreat of flowers, gardens, fireplaces and a soothing view of the ocean. Take a short picturesque stroll to Carmel's famous white sandy beach and revel in the fabulous views of the Pacific Ocean, Pebble Beach and Point Lobos. Flower-filled decks, patios and views create a natural setting that promises to refresh and relax. Combine nature with elegance and let us serve you a fabulous meal on Tally Ho's peaceful deck while you enjoy the warmth of the outdoor fireplace.

Pros: Very Clean and charming room. I was upgraded to King on top floor, due to work being done on room I requested. I was very happy - lovely views come with most rooms, too - I peeked at 2 other pretty rooms while there, and rooms with a view also available without having to climb stairs. You can see the whole bay. As an avid gardener, I appreciated the sweet flowering garden pots here and there outside- decorated with xmas lights in mid December. The hotel staff were friendly and the office was delightful with a roaring fireplace and a bountiful continental breakfast in the morning. GREAT coffee. This hotel has a peaceful, comfortable, and inviting character - I recommend it - and plan to return.

Pros: We loved the spaciousness of the rooms at the Tally Ho Inn, as well as the amazing ocean views. I'm not sure if any room has a bad view at this hotel. It's a very well done renovation of a former typical 50s motel into something much nicer - moving parking underground and creating a central fireplace patio. The location cannot be beat for Carmel. The beds were enormous and very comfortable. Loved the fireplaces and the giant TVs mounted above. Breakfast each morning was definitely light (continental style) but tasty and much appreciated!

Cons: We could hear a little bit of the TV of our neighbors below. Some rooms' bathrooms are much more recently renovated than others. The beds are perfect, but overall the decor is dated - think 90s splendor with high end antiques, and a light Asian aesthetic. Didn't stop us from enjoying the room but it was noted.

Pros: This lovely Inn is just 1/2 block from Carmel Beach, so we could hear the ocean's surf from our room! lots of windows in our room & bathroom that opened up to the oceans 65 degree breeze. The downstairs living area/lobby with a stone fireplace & adjacent library was cozy to have breakfast in which was perfect! Fresh quiche every day, fresh berries, wonderful granola & the absolute best croissants ever! All served by a delightful Brittish innkeeper that had worked there 40 years! The front garden area with beautiful plants & lovely giant hydrangeas had seating & a fire bit for enjoying a glass of wine in the afternoons & good conversation with other guests. The walk to town will give you some great exercise; do go left and stroll the beach of lovely Scenic drive up to Ocen drive. What an awesome way to get your steps in! This place was recently sold to an investor who is going to gut it & update it, put in modern baths, silk drapes, etc + add a few rooms. so they can get more $$$; hmmmm, I guess nothing ever stays the same!

Cons: that we had to pay twice the price ( or more) to stay the week of Concourse D'ellegance! the soaps in the room were so tiny! the shampoo was in micro-tiny 2" tubes! the conditioner or, what resembled conditioner was actually body lotion! the tubes were so small, that you could not read them, until the last day. I could not figure out why my hair had looked so bad and felt so bad for 5 days; so I got out my reading glasses & saw the tiny words -Body Lotion! Seriously! I am pretty sure most hotels/Inn's have both shampoo & conditioner! & the one trip that we did not bring our own! My hair looks so bad in every photo! Thank goodness I brought hats for this fancy week of the Concourse! We got a big laugh out of it!

Pros: A quaint Inn with very small but comfy and clean rooms and perhaps a little dated. The gardens are neat and quirky We stayed in the Lincoln room and there was only space to fit one suitcase comfortably. The shower was very compact and dark. As in most small places we could hear the guests moving about upstairs but not an issue for us. Location was good, right in town and about 15 min walk downhill to beach. Between 5-6pm you were served sherry or port in the front room which was a nice touch Staff were pleasant and helpful but not overly chatty.

Pros: We liked the king sized bed, the cleanliness, and the convenience to shops and restaurants.
Cons: We could hear the upstairs neighbors walking around and talking after we’d gone to bed. The chairs in the room were uncomfortable because the springs were worn out. We declined to use the shower because neither of us found it to be inviting.
