Perfect location, gorgeous unique room with beautiful bathroom. I like to say sincerely that room reminded me ; my stay at DC Mandarin Oriental hotel room. The manager Randy was very kind and helpful. He even walked us over to a restaurant nearby to ask its manager a question we had about an item on the menu. Our first visit to Carmel; now we feel; we have a home there ; definitely Monte Verde Inn. Complimentary breakfast in a basket is brought to your door every morning! Complimentary parking is available in the two parking lots owned by the Inn

An excellent location!! A short walk to restaurants, bars, shopping, the beach. Right in the heart of town!!

It was lovely!

We had a great stay at Monte Verde Inn. We were welcomed when we arrived and were actually shown to our room. The gentleman at the front desk gave us great advice on what to see and where to dine. The room was very comfortable and the breakfast delivered to our door in the morning was very good and more than what we had expected. Highly recommend.

It was a terrific trip. The hotel is in an amazing location. But, be prepared for lots of noise and an uncomfortable bed. There were minimal pillows and blankets. The staff and front desk are fantastic.There were ear plugs and I would either ask for more pillows and blankets or bring extra.

Inn owner Casey was very welcoming and helpful.

This is a great location in Carmel, close to everything. It is an older building and is noisy. They do provide earplugs in your room so they must have had complaints. We got a lovely breakfast basket this first morning delivered to our door, yogurt, OJ, HB eggs, bagel, English muffin and fruit. Day 2 and 3 we got nothing. Day 2 we were out anyway but day 3 would have been nice to have breakfast before we left. I saw other baskets outside doors so not sure why we were missed. Also did not get room serviced on day 2 even though we were out for a 4 hour stretch.

Loved the cleanliness and the ocean colors of the room. The staff was superb.

Great location, friendly staff.

This is a harming funky Inn. Loved how breakfast arrived at your door in a basket. Great location close to restaurants and Carmel Beach. Very dog friendly.

The staff was very helpful, gave us a lot of suggestions to local food and drinks. The location was brilliant, right next to downtown Carmel and 8min walk to beach. They also serve breakfast to your door around 8 am daily, which is delicious and has balanced ingredients. My only complaint is the soundproofing was poor, you can easily hear the voice in the next room. Fortunately everyone was mostly quiet during my stay.

Front desk staff here were amazing! The owner Kate was so kind and helpful right from my first email. Stayed in room 11, very cozy, comfortable and clean. The basket breakfast is good and a nice touch. Found that the lock to the door was a bit fidgety, mentioned this at the front desk, so that will likely be looked after. My only suggestion for anyone who is bothered by light when sleeping, bring yourself a sleeping mask. The window coverings are shutters without a black out capacity. Very quaint. Loved the old fashioned stand alone tub. Everything within walking distance. Highly recommend!

Really liked the staff.

Great location and wonderful hospitality. The breakfast was lovely, delivered to your door in a basket each morning. The only thing that I would warn other travelers about is that the parking is first come, first served. We didn't have a problem with this during our stay but it was a little off-putting as I had thought that parking was guaranteed when I booked the hotel. It's also a bit loud in this location, like many other hotels in Carmel. Bring a white noise machine, or use the earplugs provided by the hotel for a better night's sleep. Overall, we loved staying here and would stay here again.

Beautiful decor, cute cottage style, great breakfast, easy WiFi, complimentary amenities. Small rooms, sound can travel through walls. Need more modern outlets for phone charging.

Lovely hotel in the heart of Carmel by the Sea, within walking distance of many restaurants and stores, as well as the beach (although, it's a hike uphill, thank goodness for the benches along the way!) Casey was a gracious host, very helpful informing us of nearby restaurants.

MVI was exactly what I needed, with some special touches that pushed things above my expectations. The property has "historic charm" and certainly some patina, but the location is ideal, the room was clean and comfortable with everything I needed, and the bonus breakfast basket each morning was an unexpected touch that really made it special. Then when you consider that the rate includes parking and wifi, this is one of the best values in the village. Thank you MVI for hosting me!

We loved the breakfast delivered to our door

Stunning hotel. Cute and cozy and fits with the vibe of Carmel. The check in process was easy and quick. We were given recommendations on where to eat and explore which was nice and helpful. We had a lovely time there and I would definitely stay again.

Host was gracious and helpful in every respect. Great location. Clean, well appointed room. Good value.

Great location. Quiet. Affordable. Room was small but ok.

Very safe area and close to amenities. Mattresses and pillows did not provide too much comfort.

I loved Monte Verde and my quick stay there. I brought my dog along, and they were so accommodating and kind. I felt safe in my clean room, and so did the dog!

The room was ancient. The windows were 'jalousie' style (louvred) - which means zero sound / climate insulation - worse than single pane (looked like they were from the 50s). You could hear everything outside (they even provided earplugs, which is a sign). I had to crank the heater up to offset the cold air (this was January). The bed had just an ultra-light blanket, and I was cold the whole night (there was an extra blanket in the closet but I'm not too keen on using those - not sure how often they are cleaned). The front door was split 'Dutch style' which meant there was a gap and no insulation. The floor felt like it could collapse at any moment (I was on the 2nd floor). This place really is a relic from the past, and feels like it hasn't been updated in decades. Parking is free but was very tight - practice your uphill reversing skills! For 'breakfast' a basket is left outside your room with some OJ, bagel, toast, yoghurt, and fruit. Since it's left outside, I hope they don't recycle the contents but as I only ate one item (a cold bagel), it's a terrible waste. The hotel location is fantastic - steps from Ocean Ave, which is ideal - no need to drive anywhere as you can reach the shops/restaurant in seconds and the beach in minutes. The price was reasonable for the location. I can only imagine the high rating is because of location and price.

We loved the Inn's location, its spacious rooms, the breakfast basket delivered to the room, and the price!

The location was great and so was the service.

No time

Convenient location in Carmel Friendly and helpful staff

Great location in Carmel-by-the-Sea. Only a few blocks from the ocean. Near shops and very nice restaurants. Very easy check-in and check-out. Friendly staff.

The staff was great, very attentive and helpful. Location close to restaurants and shops.

We had our dog with us and the room was great on the first floor but across the street from where I thought we were staying. Staff was friendly and the breakfast basket was appreciated. We'll be back.

Quaint and centrally located
