Monterey hotellit lähellä Colton Hall Museum

Plussat: Room was clean and comfortable. Furnishings etc were of a high specification.

Miinukset: Location was disappointing as it was in a concrete shopping mall. The swimming pool and spa could only be accessed by walking across the mall. No breakfast or parking meant that the stay was poor value for money. A bottle of water cost $5! We would have liked a bath as well as a shower

Plussat: Excellent location, really nice clean hotel

Miinukset: There isn't much to dislike!

Plussat: First of all the location,location,location we both loved the area everything so close by. We will for sure be back and will highly recommend this place to others.

Miinukset: there is nothing negative about your hotel.

Plussat: The hotel was lovely and located in the perfect place in Monterey! There was numerous outdoor fire pits which set for a lovely romantic evening drink!

Miinukset: When we were checking out we were told that the payment for parking had been taken care of, insinuating that there was no charge or I hadn’t been charged... later on I received a bank statement that I had been charged for parking and they had taken it from my U.K. credit card without my consent therefore I got charged a conversion fee (only small but never the less) if they’d of asked I would of used my travel card to pay the bill! Also... I would bother wasting your time ordering pool service from the bar... it took nearly an hour to arrive and we had to chase them up several times. When we complained the waitress told us that we could discuss on checkout but that was the last we heard of it.

Plussat: This was our second stay at Portola Hotel and Spa. We had a very lovely, cozy room. A little smaller than expected but still very, very nice. The coffee was wonderful, the breakfast buffet was excellent. We loved it all! Nice TV, cozy little patio, nice and quiet,

Miinukset: Maybe a little better lighting in the bathroom....

Plussat: Location is good

Miinukset: Front desk man who checked us in was rude. Bed sheets had odor as if they weren't washed

Plussat: Fantastic hotel with great food and drink offerings.

Miinukset: Only point when hotel is attached to a conference centre, as a guest we were inconvenienced getting in/out hotel and using outside fire area due to delegate activities.

Plussat: Very clean

Miinukset: It was huge and hard to navigate around the hotel. Parking garage was 2 buildings away. Not huge problems but something to be aware of.

Plussat: Smart, modern, stylish finish the hotel was a lovely stay in a great location. Exactly what I wanted.

Miinukset: Didn’t advertise price of parking. First room offered was terrible, no view and very noisy. Second room was ok but then had to go out of the hotel to get to the car park and the spa and pool.

Plussat: Location, lobby area, room

Miinukset: Very loud birds early in the morning

Plussat: The location is great for this hotel and access to the shops and fisherman’s wharf is a few mins away. The reception area is beautiful with palms and a high ceiling. We had stayed here 18yrs previously and I recognised it on line because of the reception so we wanted to stay here again. Staff were very helpful and the bed was very comfy. Staff were accommodating and refunded our parking costs because we had a few issues with our room. Which was much appreciated.

Miinukset: I had wanted a room on a low floor to access via stairs as I don’t like elevators. We were given a room in a separate block over the parking. The room was clean and comfortable but tired and in need of decorating. The aircon unit was extremely loud like a jet engine! So we couldn’t use it and as it was a very hot night there so we struggled to sleep. The staff refunded our parking fee as a gesture which we appreciated. Bit of a noisy room as you are located on a walk through road and not in the hotel but as it was the only block accessible via stairs, it accommodated our needs to a certain extent. Bar was expensive - $18 for 2 beers!

Plussat: Great location! Right across from the Wharf where we walked to dinner and all around the town. Great brew pub with great food and beer.

Miinukset: Check in time was 4:00. I don't think we got in our room until after 5:00. The lobby was filled with people waiting for rooms.

Plussat: Big rooms, lots of space

Plussat: Room was ok

Miinukset: They should not even advertise that breakfast is available as its only fruit or a packet of oatmeal or a small selection of cakes, all of which you have to eat in your room and it's basically on the counter at reception.

Plussat: Good location just in the outskirts of town.

Miinukset: Nothing.

Plussat: Size and accommodations of room.

Miinukset: The fact that I still am waiting on a return of $100! Also, I think that the continental breakfast could have fresh bagels ir toast or at least a couple things that are fresh not packed with preservatives

Plussat: Breakfast was okay

Miinukset: Great rooms

Plussat: Rooms where recently updated and very comfortable, location of hotel is great. Responsive and friendly staff. Altough they kind of dont have breakfast there was served cereals, porridge and some fruits which is very nice for quick light breakfast.

Miinukset: TV signal was very poor, but that can be improved, rooms are updated but outside of hotel and common areas needs improvment. Also coffee quality is very poor.

Plussat: It was very clean and comfortable, the fireplace was a very comforting and the staff were friendly.10/10 would recommend this if your planning to stay in Monterey

Plussat: The room was very nice, the view , the balcony was nice,

Miinukset: No bell hop to carry the luggage up stairs, short on towels, coffee was bitter. The ocean view was tiny for the price that I paid.

Plussat: not a whole lot.

Miinukset: there was no ambiance .. the exterior of the motel was disappointing . considering you are in Carmel/Monterey and most places are charming this place had no charm. also the bed was so soft.. it seem well used to say the least. a bit depressing..

Plussat: The room size was spacious and great and the interior was very nice. Location is good as it's close to downtown and still at the HW#1.

Miinukset: Breakfast

Miinukset: High priced for what we got.

Plussat: I loved the room and its unusual touches with the chandelier and gas fireplace. The bed was comfy too.

Miinukset: I wish the room had had a safe.

Plussat: Location and staff

Miinukset: Room was older. No USB ports and there was an air refresher somewhere in the room that was horrible.

Plussat: Free breakfast - omelette lady was fantastic (great personality / fast / great cook).

Miinukset: Hotel is very dated, smells heavily of artificial air freshener, way overpriced (I used 50,000 Marriott points - same as the Ritz on the beach in Santa Barbara?!) - unfortunately the entire area is this way - high demand / low supply of rooms so lots of lousy accommodations for high prices. Expect to pay $500+ for a decent room (not here).

Plussat: Decent sized rooms

Miinukset: Staff at checkout didn’t have a clue as to what she was doing and it took 40 mins to check out. Wholly unacceptable!

Plussat: Booked two queens and front desk staff said we booked one king. Front desk staff argued with me which was surprising and also spoke poorly of booking.com because apparently although you book one room the hotel can put you in any room they want. Not a great start to our stay for 3 adults.’

Miinukset: For almost $600 the rooms were cramped and seemed a bit dated.

Plussat: Clean, nice room with separate toilet and a good communal and bar area. Huge bar snack plates!

Miinukset: The pool area was disappointing.

Plussat: Location

Miinukset: Had to wait along time for hot water in the shower and one time my wife never got hot water. Not so good for the hotel rate we paid.

Plussat: Room was spacious and service was good. Convenient location.

Miinukset: Room needs to be renovated. Carpet and furniture are tired and don’t feel clean. Bathroom is old and mediocre. Ventilation is poor. Disappointed overall in quality of room.

Plussat: It was a really clean and nice hotel. It was at a great location near the beach. Was able to walk to everything. Got a free upgrade when I checked in. Would go back again!

Plussat: Service at the bar/Starbucks location

Miinukset: Very slow food service, old school floors, wallpaper, & pop corn ceilings.

Plussat: I've stayed here a number of times. I typically stay here when I dive in Monterey. Great location, and clean and comfortable. Also they give you a baked treat when you check in!

Plussat: Lisa met us on arrival, provided us with key and cookies. Room (16) was lovely. Walking distance to all Monterey restaurants and sites. Ample free parking. Highly recommend.

Miinukset: It was perfect

Plussat: Front desk was very nice and helpful with recommendations for food. You can easily walk downtown as it is very close. The home made muffins were great as well. Everything was very clean. Towels were soft and big. Bed was comfortable and big. Everything was very good and we would be happy to be back.

Miinukset: We were not able to shut the heating system off all the way. So it was a tad warm but that was not really an issue. Might just been our room.

Plussat: Recently remodeled inn. Very clean and super quiet when the window is closed. Rooms have undergone an extensive soundproofing and it really works. Due to the hot and sunny days, the room did get a bit warm though. The folks running the place are exceptionally nice and helpful.

Plussat: Friendly and helpful staff at checkin, super comfortable bed and good shower. We only stayed overnight, but the staff gave us recommedations for dinner and things to see during our stay.

Miinukset: A/C would have been nice on the hot days.

Miinukset: They started cleaning the room before we had checked out our checkout time was 12,they were cleaning before we were required to leave

Miinukset: Poor air conditioning

Plussat: Nice big room. Easy to work in.

Miinukset: The breakfast is not really a breakfast and there is no where to eat except your room. Might as well just have coffee and leave it at that. They need to have a laundry!! Very important for a motel.

Plussat: The room setup was great and kept very clean. The staff was exceptionally responsive to questions and concerns. There was a mistake in how my card was charged, but it was dealt with very quickly and professionally. I appreciate the staffs' openness.

Miinukset: There is no option for AC, only a space heater. We stayed during one of Monterey's hotter weeks, so the ceiling fan and open windows weren't enough to cool the room down. Difficult to sleep comfortably due to sweat.

Plussat: Friendly and helpful staff, fast check in.

Miinukset: If they could put more protein like sausage links, patties, or bacon in their breakfast menu, it will make the stay experience more wonderful.

Plussat: Staff was very accommodating to our needs.

Miinukset: Parking was a little difficult.

Plussat: It's quaint, charming and welcoming. I have stayed there every year for the last 10 years and it never disappoints! Highly recommend. It's within walking distance to Fisherman's Wharf downtown Monterey and the trolly to the Cannery Row/Aquarium. The continental breakfast never disappoints.

Plussat: Rooms were clean and beds comfortable!

Plussat: excellent location
