Cons: I wouldnt want to quibble. On the corner of a busy traffic route, so not exactly "quiet". You are also at the mercy of other guests noise. No prob to us, but it is a pet friendly hotel, so lots of dogs - not everone's fancy. No view of the ocean

Pros:
Cons: We checked into the hotel later in the evening and the staff did not tell us there’s was no hot water working in the entire hotel. The next morning when we were checking out and I politely told them the hot water in our room was not working, and she just said, “oh there isn’t hot water in our hotel right now.” No apology, no discount- nothing!! $300 a night, you get a cold shower. Never will return again.

Secluded and tranquil, the Tally Ho Inn offers a true English countryside atmosphere. Indulge in the luxury of serenity and romance with as much pampering as you like. 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.

Cons: The senior restaurant guy was socially awkward and pretentious. The bedroom was on the small side and a bit cluttered. And to have to pay extra at breakfast for oatmeal and cappuccino at these prices, when “breakfast is included” seems a bit ‘nickel and dime’-y to me... Add $10 to the room rate and let me order what I want; I’ll feel better about my stay.
9.5 Excellent
Pros: Friendly staff, location and cleanliness.
Cons: Breakfast that was included was not healthy! All simple carbs (bread and croissants or muffins), gluten and sugar. The eggs were the only thing that was worth eating and what was offered at cost was very expensive. We chose to eat our breakfast elsewhere every morning and spoke to others staying at the hotel who were doing the same.

Also, I like a restaurant that offers more than just an eight course meal and room service if we want to stay in for the evening. I don’t think I would stay again.

Cons: The rooms are a little dated but the bed was comfortable! The shower was modernized as best as possible but in order to turn the water on, because of where the sliding door had to open, you had to be willing to get a little wet unless you had Bruce Lee moves (which I do not!).

Pros: Location was ideal and we had a parking space right in front where we could leave our car all weekend.
Cons: The hotel is quaint looking and seems to have been recently updated. Unfortunately what they left out was adding AC or a ceiling fan to compensate for the great amount of moisture that the rooms seems to hold on to. The windows weren't able to be opened either. Even though it was only in the mid sixties outside the room seemed to be in the 70's due to the humidity. Not sure if this is bc of how old the "bones" of the place is or what. We have stayed in other places in Carmel before and never experienced this. The walls are paper thin as we could hear EVERYTHING from the neighbors next to us as well as the neighbors below us and anyone walking around the room.

I thought the staff may be a bit snobby given the area, but they weren't at all. Beautiful hotel and garden/grounds. Several Hospitality events throughout the day that made for fun memories. I know it is pricier, but it is worth it with the bonuses of the beautiful landscaping, sitting areas, wonderful staff, very nice breakfast, and hospitality events. Great location near beach. We will visit again!

The hotel is located in the heart of carmel, next door to exclusive shops, galleries and restaurants. Championship golf courses and pristine white beaches are just minutes away.
This bed & breakfast is 0.6 mi (1 km) from Carmel Beach and 1.1 mi (1.7 km) from 17-Mile Drive. The front desk is staffed during limited hours. Limited parking is available onsite.

Very pretty area and many shops, dining, and beach all within walking distance. Beautiful town.
Cons: We arrived approximately 40 minutes before check-in time. Despite the fact that there were several open parking spaces in the property's lot, the proprietor declined our request to park on property and walk around until check-in time. She told us we would receive a parking space at 3:00, upon check-in. Taking into consideration the price (over $230/night) and the fact that our accommodations included paid parking, I was surprised that the proprietor took such a hard line approach. I expected the staff to be friendlier and inquire as to what they could do to make our stay more pleasant. It was difficult to find parking downtown. Also, the bed was not the most comfortable, but certainly was acceptable.
5.8 Okay
Pros: Location
Cons: The breakfast room is a 3by3 meter room . Too small to have breakfast there for all guests! The breakfast itself doesn’t offer a lot on a little table of 1 meter! The staff keep running in and out of the kitchen to refill the 2 plates with apple and orange slides. All in all a chaotic morning run

Cons: Coffee machine did not always work, however, there was always cookies and coffee in the lobby which is a short walk from any room. I’m not going to argue the price as everything in Carmel-by-the -Sea for this particular weekend was on the high end and the Inn was reasonable considering the other options.

Cons: It's hard for me to spend upwards of 250+ a night when paint is peeling in the bathroom, light fixtures are beyond old and tile needs to be repaired. I understand this is Carmel but it would only take a small expenditure to upgrade the little things in the bathroom to make you feel like your getting your money's worth. Otherwise its a lovely place and I would stay there again.

Nestled in the heart of Carmel-by-the-Sea, guests of Hotel Carmel have immediate access to all of the amenities the upscale village has to offer. Located just steps from the hotel are the area's famed white sand beaches, art galleries, wine tasting rooms and more! When guests are not visiting the quaint shops and award-winning restaurants dotted along Ocean Avenue, they can cozy up in their chic, coastal accommodations or circle around the charming courtyard fire pit for wine and storytelling with fellow Carmel-loving travelers. Beginning with breakfast at daybreak, local fare and libations at the Brophy’s Tavern, and a complimentary nightly wine hour at sunset, guests of Hotel Carmel are treated to all the comforts of home amidst the calming breeze of the Pacific Ocean.

Pros: It was just what we needed: a comfortable hotel, no luxury, to stay in while we visited Carmel, and spent most time sight seeing. The staff were super helpful and friendly. Very conveniently located.
Cons: Can't think of anything we did not like.

Cons: The wan site could have been more specific on the number of people the room could accommodate. We were a family of four but the room was to small for four.

Pros: Didnt get breakfast there, too expensive. Lovely room though very close to Carmel's main beach. Easy walk to everything in Carmel.
Cons: TV didnt work, couldnt get cable or free to air stations. Didnt bother telling staff, too late.
4.3 Okay
Pros:
Cons: Really, we were very disappointed. The only thing we could see this accommodation has going for it is their location. The rooms are terribly basic, the bathroom was falling apart, toilet kept blocking( with no help from us..), room was off the kitchen and on a main thoroughfare so we had to keep blinds closed all the time and were awaken with banging in the kitchen getting breakfast ready. Staff were lackluster and generally unsmiling/ unfriendly.

Cons: Breakfast is ONLY from 8:15-9:30. Hate it when a place forces u up early. Should be 10 a.m. at least. Some shutters were broken in room and I like liquid bath gel instead of hard soap but that's minor. Breakfast is a tad stingy. Hard boiled eggs, pastry, bagels and only 2 kinds of yogurt and fruit. But it gets the job done!
5.5 Okay
Pros: I liked the fireplace and location.
Cons: We drove up from our home at 4am and arrived in Carmel at 10am and were pretty tired. I asked if they could get us into a room earlier but ended up being ready at 3PM for normal check in. With the small amount of rooms they offer they could have cleaned our room first and offered to contact us when the room was ready instead of us having come back to check if it was ready. We aren’t coming back to this hotel. Also windows and walls are thin. We woke up to a truck unloading stuff at 5:40 am so bring earplugs if you stay here.

4.5 Okay
Pros:
Cons: The power was out and we had to take cold showers. With comfort inn being such a big chain, there should have been a back up generator for situations like this. We live in the 21st century where technology and science are at its peak. The host or person who worked in the front (Gita) was not apologetic, nor were we informed about the situation. Such an expensive stay with mediocre service and hospitality. When we told her that we took cold showers, she was like ohh well I didn’t because I woke up early...like wow....

Pros: The food at the restaurant downstairs was impeccable. And the bar made great drinks as well. It seems very baloney to me, though, that they offer a FULL breakfast on weekdays and no voucher or coupon of ANY kind for guests on weekend mornings.
Cons: The parking situation is NOT as advertised - there are only 19 spots for 49 guest rooms and the parking lot is not even attached to the hotel facilities! If you are arriving as late in the day as the actual check in time, or later, you are going to be absolutely screwed trying to find parking pretty much anywhere within at least a 1 mile hilly radius. And in such a pedestrian & vehicle dense area, it is CRAZY that this hotel offers only ONE temporary parking space to park in while you check in/out and unload. The parking situation was very stressful and one that would keep me from likely ever staying here again. Additionally, there is no elevator and the rooms are extremely small and uncomfortable. No screens on the windows, no safe in the room, and no fan in the bathroom.
9.5 Excellent
Pros: Old world charm. Clean and beautiful hotel in a great location.
Cons: Our room in the second floor had no elevator, so carrying there all the bags we had (traveling with toddler) was somewhat heavy. Quite small rooms, but very nice ones.

Pros: Liked the location and the breakfast was excellent. Staff were friendly.
Cons: Rooms were not updated at all. Poorly ventilated, electrical outlets scary and no thermostat! Way too hot! Very very old and very, very noisy. All kinds of crazy people kept us up all night and staff starts vacuum at 8 am! Also adjoining restaurant has a bar. Do not order a drink there. They don't know what they are doing.

Pros: Inge on reception was probably the best Receptionist I have ever come across. Extremely friendly and welcoming with lots of local knowledge.
Cons: We were offered the opportunity to upgrade our original booking of a Queen Room to a King Room (which we took). However, even though we were told it would be noisy because of the road, we didn't expect the bins to be emptied throughout the early hours of Sunday morning. There was no air con in the room so had to have the windows open and didn't end up getting much sleep.
9.1 Excellent
Pros: Close to every restaurant you'd ever want and walking distance to the beach.
Staff were incredibly kind and accommodating.
Cons: Low ceilings meant that I kept hitting my head and hands on the ceiling fan.

Plus, the room was incredibly hot, even when it was nice and cool outside.

Cons: Room was VERY warm, even with the radiator off. The windows had to be completely open throughout our stay, day and night, for comfort.
Walls and floors are thin, as often true in older hotels -- you will hear some walking and talking from above and next door.

Pros: The location was quite good.
Cons: It was hot in the room, and the windows opened onto the outside hallway, so I didn't feel safe having them open. To turn on the fan, you had to also turn on the overhead light--no fan only option. The bathroom cabinets were worn and discolored. The shower was tiled in very dark tile, so it was hard to see. The walls were so thin, I could hear the man next door clearing his throat. Except for an apple and banana, the breakfast was all sweet things.

Cons: The property is very old and in serious need of upgrading, furnishings, landscape. There was a fire hazard in the closet which I reported to staff. No space to put anything on by the refrigerator and coffee pot. It could be very attractive and pleasant if a serious effort was mounted to remodel all. I'll never stay there again.

6.3 Good
Pros: Very comfy bed and the room was spacious!! Loved the hardwood floors and shower was awesome.
Cons: Thought each room was a stand alone but found out the first night it wasn’t. Duplex neighbor was either fighting or practicing gymnastics for a long time in the room. Was disappointed that we weren’t in the grassy area of the compound, our room faced Guadeloupe Street. We also faced the setting sun which heated up the room. The yard was a bit overgrown. Other than getting hot and a noisy neighbor one night, the room was awesome!!!

3.8 Mediocre
Pros: Can't say I liked anything. Oh, the back door of our "Executive Suite" was convenient access to the sidewalk. Garden is "okay.
Cons: I rented a 2 room "executive" suite for $450 a night. So please understand this from the perspective of $900 2 night stay. If I paid $350. The value would be closer to the cost, but I'd still be dissappointed. Room decor was trying to be quaint but was really just very run down and terribly mismatched. Furniture was broken down and filthy dirty. For heat they provided loud and rattling space heaters for each room. The hot water ran out quickly. No full length mirror. Had to stand on the bed to catch a full body image. I slipped in the shower twice because there was no mat or slip preventive options. The free "breakfast" was terrible. The toaster didn't work. Guests would push the lever down over and over making it clear it wasn't working. The coffee was often luke warm. No non-dairy creamer available for my vegan family member. Waffle batter and 2 kinds of dried cereal or oatmeal were provided. No juice or water available. Definitely not a Carmel experience.
