"The Hilton Garden Inn Monterey offers a convenient, comfortable stay in the heart of this scenic California town. Guests enjoy an indoor pool, fitness center, and on-site dining, plus easy access to top attractions like the Monterey Bay Aquarium. While lacking some local charm, it provides reliable, well-priced accommodations for both leisure and business travelers.
but one of the reception woman(seems like manager) is not very polite."
"I like the town of Monterey very much. The location of this hotel is OK. It takes 5 minutes to get to Uncle ** Supermarket and Panda Express. The front desk man is very enthusiastic and the hygiene is OK. The breakfast is simple and enough. Coffee and hot water are provided free of charge."
"Originally wanted to go to the small town of Monterey to participate in the music festival, missed, random hotel, stay was very pleasant, the layout of the whole room is very emotional, the service is thoughtful. There are many restaurants and small bars at the entrance of the hotel, it is worth staying. But the treasures booked on Trip.com have noticed that in addition to paying the room fee when placing an order on the webpage, the amount marked to the hotel and then pay xxx yuan is wrong. The hotel's single room is charged as if it is about 100 💲."
"The hotel is located on a street in Monterey, and it is easy to see the navigation in the past. The parking lot is downstairs in the room. The hotel has a beautiful European style with a garden and a small dining room. The rooms are quite large with a fireplace. Breakfast is relatively simple, bread and fruit coffee granola."
"The location is splendid. Everything is alright except for the fact that we had to carry our luggage up and down the stairs to reach our room. There are in total 2 sets of stairs with small steps and our luggage was quite heavy. There is an elevator but it only carried us to to the floor and not where our hotel room is actually located. You definitely need to request for wheelchair accessible rooms if you don't want to burden yourself in carrying your heavy luggages or if you are bringing someone who is disabled or the elderly. The free breakfast had a pancake maker which was really nice."
"Good location, walk 10 minutes to the old fisherman's wharf, there is a Chinese supermarket on the right.
The room structure is reasonable and easy to use, and the bedding and sofa are comfortable.
Cold meals are available at 16:00 in the lobby, ham cheese fruit wine is very good.
No hot food for breakfast and no meat, sorry.
Overall good and worth recommending.
Monterey town is beautiful, there is no parking near the aquarium, 17miles is beautiful, and the coastline of camel town is stunning."
"There is no gate or fence, it should be a motel. It is within walking distance of Fisherman's Wharf and the aquarium, where you can see the sea and seals. The room has air conditioning and a fireplace that seems to be able to warm up, but it didn't work because I didn't know how to open the window and was afraid that the air would not circulate. The bed in the room was too soft, and the breakfast was okay."
"Everything was good except the fact of someone pounding on my door at 1:00am then they took off! It was ridiculously unacceptable as they think it’s funny! Other then that, the view of the beach from our room was spectacular. Well worth the cost. Checking in/out was quick and easy."
"The overall price/performance ratio is relatively low, the rooms are relatively old, and the scenery is really not good in the United States. The wind blowing in from the balcony is also a bit unpleasant, and you need to charge dozens of knives to the hotel, including taxes, parking fees, etc."
"Super good hotel room is very large, very clean, parking lot seats are a lot, breakfast is ok, the front desk service is friendly, the location is super good, everyone come to live, the picture is the scenery nearby is super good"

Great
GGuest UserCheck-in went smooth; top notch room & views of the harbor and bay. This is the safest hotel near the Monterey sea. In house lounge and restaurant. Gorgeous room with huge shower, balcony and comfy bed. Worth every penny. Valet, parking and nice cleaning staff too. Prime location; it was very busy with a conference happening but still great!!
Ffanfan07It’s a motel that picks up itself. It’s clean and safe. It’s very close to the Monterey Shopping Center. It’s convenient for shopping and eating.
GGuest UserI’ve been to Monterey many times over the years and always considered spending a little extra to stay here. My stay was alright. The room was clean, loved the big tub and stand alone shower. Duvet was very comfortable but only thin down pillows with no support.
I was disappointed with my “ocean view” which ended up being brick wall of the building next door, with a questionable metal “balcony.” If you were brave enough to peer over you could see the ocean.
Parking is $50+ a night whether you valet or self park. We weren’t told which of the nearby parking garages were affiliated and ended up in the wrong garage the first night and had to pay double. If I stay again I’d just skip on their garage and use the one on Foam St for $20 overnight parking.
We did not visit the restaurant so cannot speak on that.
Area is fun, love the proximity to the aquarium. Lots of little touristy shops and cafes right outside on the *****.
For the price plus the additional parking fee I do not know that I’d stay here again. Driving to all the local hot spots is pretty easy so staying a little bit away from the area and spending less seems to be a better idea for me personally.
DDingxueThe breakfast in this hotel is OK, with meat dishes, but the soundproofing is too poor. We lived downstairs, and the people upstairs were walking around the room all day long, so we couldn't sleep downstairs at all. They were still walking around very late at night and very early in the morning. We could hear them very clearly downstairs, so we couldn't sleep at all, and it was difficult to complain, so we didn't get a good rest.
GGuest UserThe room is nice and the location is good, but the hotel's swimming pool, gym, etc. require additional payment, even if you don't use them, you still have to pay $68
EEric N.Great location! I had a conference at the Monterey Conference which is less than a 3 min walk! Only thing was that there was no AC, I’m so used to assuming that hotels always have AC, but it was my bad for not checking ahead of time. I asked for a roll out bed, and they were able to provide that, depending on availability at no extra cost. Had a good stay! Quite historical hotel.
GGuest UserMy favorite place to stay when in the area. The man who runs the place is the nicest man in the world ! Very friendly, understanding, and hospitable. The housekeeper is a sweetheart and works very hard and quietly. Cleanest hotel you will find in the state. Highly recommend.
陈陈Good location, clean small hotel with ironing board and electric kettle. Motels with good facilities in the United States. The 17miles entrance one or two kilometers away is a lot cheaper than living in Carmel
