If you're looking for a place close to the ocean, quiet and somewhat affordable, this is the place for you. You're off the beaten path here, yet close to downtown Pacific Grove, 17 Mile Drive, Asilomar Beach, Monterey and Carmel. The staff is friendly and the beds are very comfortable. They even put us in a suite for no additional... More

This was our second stay at the hotel. We stayed over Christmas. Seems to be the best value in the area for having two separate bedrooms. Very pleasant and quiet location. The innkeepers are very pleasant. Check-in and check-out is very fast. We had a two bedroom suite with a king bed in one room and two twin beds. We... More

We booked this hotel after looking for a place online to stay while visiting the Montery area. The price was great and it was nice that we could get 2 bedrooms for cheaper then others with only one bedroom. It was great that the kids could have their own area. It is well off the beaten path of other hotels... More

I loved this place. I am a mother of two little boys, 3 & 5, and there is nothing worse than at the end of a long day having two little boys cramped up in a hotel room and making sure they don't stomp hard or yell too loud. We have stayed at the nicest hotels on cannery row and... More

Best things about this inn: nestled in nature, and close to beautiful Sunset Drive and Cannery Row. Biggest complaint: When heating or air conditioning came on, it sounded like what you would hear if you were sitting inside a plane and the jets would start up - I needed earplugs at night. What also wasn't so great: shower temperature would... More

Having stayed the previous year in a very sub standard place (see review - still fuming about treatment), I was quite careful about booking this time. I cannot recommend more highly a visit to Pacific Grove and this time I took my teenage son. This HoJo was a most pleasant find and surprise and I would recommend it highly. Spacious,... More

Was put off other hotels in Monterey by high prices. Telephoned HoJo and met with courteous voice and very good price. Hidden away in Pacifc Grove the whole hotel has an aura of tranquility about it. Each room is self contained appartment with every amenity you could want. Can't recommend it enough. We were coming to the end of a... More

A true find. Quiet, restful, quaint. Rooms are nice. Close to whatever you wish to do in the area. Listening to the ocean at night is so relaxing. Look for deer running around. Nothing wrong with this place at all! Well, OK, maybe one thing, the towels were kind of on the thin side. Big deal. More

The rooms were clean and at night it was very quiet. Great environment to sleep in. Best of all it had ceiling fan which was also very quiet. Made the room that more enjoyable even thought you had the cool air from the ocean. More
