We opted for the Clarion on Munras Avenue since this property was conveniently central to all area attractions and did not charge additional resort fees or for parking. As with many hotels in Monterey, it is an older wood-built property, so we were concerned about noise during our 3-night stay. We were lucky and only the first night had noisy... More

From the minute we pulled in we regreted booking this hotel. We used priceline so we didn't pick it ourselves. We booked a double bed because we had three kids with us. They only had single bed room for us. Manager was rude and said take it or leave it and if we wanted a rollaway it would cost extra.... More

First things first the hotel is a tremendous value. The kids loved the indoor pool. However, the best part of the trip was when my wife left her $1200 Swiss watch in the bed sheets (my 1 year old was playing with it in the wee hours of the morning) and it was recovered by the cleaning staff!

I was not expecting much after reading some negative comments on Tripadvisor, but Priceline landed me here for $60 and I am very glad they did. The room was extremely clean and comfortable, with a massage shower, and the best internet connection I found in all of California. The Front Desk attendant was friendly and helpful, as she gave me... More

We stay here whenever we want a quick getaway (we live in the East Bay). Between Big Sur and Pacific Grove, the Clarion couldn't be more convenient. It's close to EVERYTHING, quiet, clean, the staff is friendly, professional and very accommodating. Our kids love the indoor pool and hot tub and I love they have large bathtubs and fireplaces.

I read the reviews, most of them old, but reserved for the price and was very pleased with everything. We don't have kids but it's a great place for them with the indoor heated pool and the hot tub nearby. Room was clean, bed comfortable and the location is terrific. Enjoyed the biscuits and gravy for breakfast, would definitely stay... More

stayed there from 12/26-12/28. Great location. Clean room, friendly staff. Not a trace of cigarette smoke in the room or on the premises. Kids loved the indoor pool. The breakfast is basic, but does the job.

Had a nice visit. Complex is great because the rooms are buried inside the complex away from the street, so it was nice and quiet. We had one problem with our hot tub. We called the front desk and since it was a holiday, no maintenance was available. Staff offered us a change or room, which we accepted. All was... More

Convenient, clean, good rooms and well-run, what more could you ask for? The kids enjoyed making waffles for breakfast, everyone enjoyed the pool and we couldn't get Granny out of the hot tub. Reception allowed us to switch rooms to accommodate seven of us more comfortably and the price was reasonable. If you're lucky enough to get the glorious weather... More
