Carmel-by-the-Sea Majatalot

Plussat: Location plus parking

Miinukset: Room was slightly gloomy.

Plussat: Breakfast quiche is delicious! The first room was like being in a dungeon. Room 15 was delightful. Enjoyed sitting on our patio late afternoon.

Plussat: Room size, ease to park and fabulous location.

Miinukset: Nothing really

Plussat: It looks like a motel from the outside, but it’s actually a lovely inn with a delicious breakfast. We were upgraded to a luxurious suite because the room we had booked had a missing tile in the bathroom.

Plussat: Location and welcome.

Miinukset: Nothing really.

Plussat: Breakfast included in price was very delicious and fresh. Location was excellent for walking and exploring the town. Only caution is parking is a premium and availability. But the hotel is not to blame for that.

Plussat: Good location

Miinukset: Hard to get up the stairs with our suitcases- no elevator. Had we known - would have requested a downstairs room . Room dark & stuffy - no air conditioner. Water pressure poor in shower. Staff didn’t get our breakfast order correct either morning.

Plussat: Location,

Miinukset: The layout was very odd. You have to go through the bathroom to get to the bedroom. Very noisy- walls are thin and ceiling is thin. Hard too sleep. Not worth $--- including taxes.

Plussat: Very comfortable, clean, light and airy. GREAT BREAKFAST delivered to your suite!

Miinukset: There was a neighboring building’s air compressor next to our bedroom; but with the windows closed, the noise was minimal.

Plussat: Great breakfast. Great service.

Miinukset: Bed too soft (personal preference)

Plussat: The property is darling, situated right in the middle of Carmel-By-The-Sea. The rooms are large. A lovely hot breakfast is brought straight to your room each morning of your stay. The lobby is charming and the staff very friendly and accommodating.

Miinukset: Because of its location the property can be quite noisy. I believe there is a noise restriction implemented on the immediate property but I imagine there is little the hotel can do about the noise in the surrounding area. On the two mornings we stayed (during Labor Day weekend) there was a noisy garbage truck collecting garbage right beneath our bedroom window. We are early risers but this was quite an alarm clock! Also because of the location of the dumpster staff was bringing garbage to the dumpster late at night, again right beneath our bedroom window. Overall the hotel was lovely, but this was definitely a setback.

Plussat: Very well appointed, big rooms, comfy bed, has a fireplace, table for eating and a big sofa and TV. Just great!

Miinukset: Cannot think of anything!

Plussat: Very peaceful and zen place, I really liked it , very hospital and lots of free parking

Miinukset: Carpet and baths a bit dated

Plussat: Clean, welcoming and so relaxing. Interconnecting rooms and amazing beds and sheets. Large bathrooms with separate bath and shower. Close to the beach, shops and restaurants.

Miinukset: Nothing!!

Plussat: Very comfortable, spacious room, cozy bed and peaceful grounds. Nice fresh breakfast, w/quiche offered on weekends. Great staff, helpful, knowledgeable, responsive.

Miinukset: A nit - room had a small fountain (great) but when you turn on the fountain a light comes on in the room, so can’t sleep w/fountain on providing a peaceful background environment

Plussat: The place is beautiful! Big rooms and bathrooms with everything you need. Easy parking. Nice breakfast, complimentary.

Miinukset: The isolation is pretty bad. We could hear everything that was happening upstairs, so resting was hard. The shower is super low, so it was hard to get my hair washed.

Plussat: Lovely far-east Asian feel and decor to the rooms. Choc-dipped strawberries and an orchid upon checking-in were a v nice touch. Also lovely fire pit and gardens. Good location for amenities.

Miinukset: Room was a bit stuffy. While breakfast was a good spread, the room was quite small and smoerines getting a table was tricky.

Plussat: Close to Carmel dining and shopping

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: The Tradewinds was perfect for me and my lab. The room was spacious and I enjoyed having the balcony. I had my breakfast there each morning. It was a treat and my doggie enjoyed lounging there. I loved my room. Very spacious. The Tradewinds staff is fantastic. Every single person was helpful, friendly and responsive. I can't wait to visit again! Breakfasts were great!

Miinukset: Can't think of anything in particular.

Miinukset: Outdated, requires remodeling. Too expensive for what you get !

Miinukset: While we thought we rec'd a decent deal at $360 for a single night for a deluxe king room, a day before our trip i noticed a similar king room for $100 less. Figuring i would just get a better room with a view, i was disappointed to learn that the room had no view and just a gas fireplace. I mentioned the discrepancy in the rates, but they only suggested that we should have booked directly instead and called in first to verify the rates and the available rooms.

Plussat: N/a

Miinukset: More sundries in bathroom. Upgrade breakfast.

Plussat: It was within walking distance from other shops and restaurants. The hotel feels like a luxury hotel. Professional staff. I would stay here again.

Miinukset: I wish there was a swimming pool or jacuzzi!

Plussat: Beautiful rooms! The bed and sheets were amazing and the room was immaculate. The soaps and shampoos were very high quality. This hotel is in a very peaceful street. I slept like a baby. The fireplace was lovely too. At night, the courtyard is lit up with little torches so it's quite pretty. Theresa, the manager, was incredibly kind and helpful.

Miinukset: The lobby was a little spartan, so I was afraid the rooms would be too. They were NOT.
