My husband and I recently visited the Merrit House Hotel from April 11 to April 14, 2025, for a three-day stay. As frequent visitors to Monterey, having experienced at least ten different hotels in the area, we found the Merrit House Hotel to be particularly enjoyable. The room we stayed in was clean and beautifully maintained. The complimentary breakfast, while satisfactory, consisted of boiled eggs, cereal, oatmeal, small muffins, danishes, coffee, and tea. A notable advantage of the hotel is its proximity to Rosine’s Restaurant, which offers delicious food and is within walking distance. Overall, we can confidently say that the Merrit House Hotel is our favorite among the various places we've stayed in Monterey. However, there are a couple of drawbacks to note: the beds were quite firm, there are no elevators to access the upper floors, and the breakfast selection could be improved. Rooms: 4/5 | Service: 5/5 | Location: 5/5

Very nice location and within walking distance to shops/ fishermen's warf. Very nice breakfast with bagels, tea, coffee, fruit: served in an extra breakfast room on cute dishes. Monterey has a different landscape than beach cities. Lots if wood and cypresses. Staff was very nice. Very stylish make-up table in the room. Nice heating fan in the bathroom.

Room was nicely decorated with a fireplace. Staff friendly. Breakfast was a very good continental, with a variety of options including cereal, in a nice breakfast room. Great location within 5 minute walk to convention center. Handicap parking right outside my room. French doors out to the patio of my ground floor room. Large desk and chair for sitting.

We loved our stay here. The room was so cosy, big beds and comfortable but the top was the fireplace! They give you logs so you can light the fire. The room was very clean, and we had housekeeping service It’s set in a quiet, yet central neighbourhood and very safe. The breakfast is nice and simple You can park the car inside

Maria

Great location! Perfect for fisherman’s wharf and whale watching tours. Great complimentary breakfast! Good parking facilities, although comes at a cost of 20 USD a night. Bohemian feel to rooms, pretty spacious and loved the little seating/balcony area overlooking the lovely gardens.
