This was our third stay at the Carmel Inn & Suites. It has pretty much become our go-to place in Carmel for family trips.
Carmel is obviously an expensive destination, but this place is quite reasonably priced. Travelling with my wife and daughter, we've taken a suite each time that has a living room with a daybed for my daughter to sleep on, along with a separate bedroom with king-sized bed. We have generally paid between $100 and $150 for these accomodations, depending on the season. The living room and bedrom each has its own wall-mounted gas heater with individual thermostats--a nice feature on chilly, foggy Carmel winter evenings. The rooms are nicely decorated (though a little more frilly and feminine that most of us guys would prefer). The staff is friendly and accomodating. There is a small swimming pool, but unfortunately no hot tub/jacuzzi. The location is great--only two blocks off of Ocean Avenue, and only a block or two from many of Carmel's best restaurants.
I really have only one complaint about the place, and that's that the walls and floors seem a little thin, and guests in other rooms can be heard. The first time this happened, I thought it was just that the neighbors in the next room were loud (and they WERE, and also quite rude), but the last time we stayed we heard noises from the room next door (shouting kids and loud adult voices) and the room above us (the footsteps were so loud it sounded like they must've been wearing ski boots). Again, maybe it was just that these were particularly loud neighbors, but in the middle of the night I also even heard a guest SNORING in some other room, which would suggest the walls are a little too thin unless he happened to be an EXTREMELY loud snorer!
That aside, this is a very good place to stay, at a reasonable rate and in a good location. There's a reason we've returned in the past, and we undoubtedly will again.

Needs updating
Location: Any street close to Ocean Avenue for downtown shopping. Going to the beach would pretty much be the same. The town is small; everything isclose in proximity.
Location was fantastic; we could walk everywhere in downtown Carmel from the inn. However, the inn itself needs updating and some repair. The wallpaper was pealing off the bathroom walls. The electrical sockets were the old 2-prong type, hence we had to have an adapter to plug in our laptop. It just needs to be refurbished.

We picked the Carmel Inn Suites off the internet and we totally lucked out it was very cute , the room was very clean and exactly what the website detailed, the rooms although on the small side are well decorated , bathroom worked fine, TV, and everything else was good. The parking is a little tight but I would still totally recommend it. Check inn was handled very nice by a gentleman with a british accent. Would totally go back there again. They also had a nice little continental breakfast setup....nice touch.

Pretty in Pink
Location: Make a piont to go to the Chees Shop on the corner of Ocean and Junipero Streets. Great cheese and wine selection and very helpful staff.
Well, What to say... First the location of this hotel is great. The rooms are clean and the staff were very helpful. The only real negative is we ended up in the (Pink and I mean Very Pink) room. The hotel itself shows a bit of age (peeling wall paper and old furniture). But all in all for the price, I would stay there again (but request a Non-Pink room). It had free wireless, a DVD player and a basic continental breakfast. We had an oppertunity to see a couple of the other rooms and they seemed nice. Other than needing some TLC, this hotel was a good value. Thi sis by no means a 5 star facility, but everything is well within walking distance. The beach is a short 15 minute walk, down town Carmel By The Sea is just steps away.

I stayed at the Carmel Inn for just one night and fell in love with the city and hotel. I did not have a reservation, and and the reservationist Rana was so kind and helpful to me. She was wonderful. The room was beyond excellent and had a gorgeous decor and dreamy comfort. And the buffet breakfast the next morning was delicious. I definitely recommend the Carmel Inn. You will not be disappointed. Thank you Rana for everything.

We stayed here recently with friends. They upgraded us to a suite upon arrival, which made our stay even better. From this inn, you can walk to restaurants and shopping easily. I would highly recommend this hotel!

We booked two rooms to accommodate four adults for one night. Hotel staff greeted us warmly and handled check-in quickly. The rooms were a little small, but very clean. The bed was comfortable. We had trouble with the TV, but someone came to take care of it immediately. The parking lot is tight, to say the least. If you have a large SUV good luck. It's located within easy walking distance of many shops and restaurants. All four of us were satisfied with the Carmel Inn & Suites and would stay there again.

We spent three days in Carmel in July 2011 and found the Carmel Inn and Suites to be comfortable and resonably priced in an expensive town. The room was ornately decorated with antiques and had a cheery atmosphere. A microwave, coffee-maker and mini-fridge were included. The inn is centrally located and we walked everywhere. The owners (a friendly couple) provided information about the town. There was free internet in the room. I especially appreciated the small breakfast room which thankfully did NOT have a loud TV with ugly CNN news programs like many hotels (this Inn played quiet classical music). The breakfast was simple but adequate (oatmeal, cereal, muffins, fruit, yogurt) and we had a chance to meet travelers from Hungary, Germany, French Canada and Portugal. We asked for a second-floor room which was quieter -- but there is no elevator, only stairs.

Surprisingly very neat, clean and safe feeling. Staff very helpful. You have to drive to beach and the building we were in has no elevator so if you ok w/ that very nice accommodations.
