Monarch Resort

Nice place. Clean, comfortable, mostly quiet. Some kid was playing in the pool at around 7:30 in the morning. But that's more the parents fault for not keeping their kids volume at a reasonable level. But also, kids are kids. It's fine.

I was blown away when I saw the size of the rooms. Heated pool and spa was really nice too!

I really enjoyed my stay, the front desk was very friendly, they offered breakfast not a lot of places do, the hotel close to everything.

My friend and I had a delightful stay at Monarch Resort. Our room was comfortable and clean. I loved the fireplace in the room with the Duraflame fire log. They gave us a log for each night. The hot tub was hot and clean. The complementary breakfast was awesome: fresh croissants and muffins, boiled eggs and fruit, hot coffee and tea. The greenery and dolphin statues inside the hotel added to its charm. We will be coming back.

We enjoyed our stay, if you stay near the pool it can be loud if you’re sensitive to that kind of thing. The pool closes at 9 but people were still there pretty loud until 9:45. Otherwise it was a nice place with very friendly staff.

It was very clean, close to downtown.

Hotel is older but clean for most part .. my room had a very strong smell of mold

We liked our room and it's cleanliness. The staff was attentive. Unfortunately, one of the mattresses in our room was very uncomfortable. We had to sleep on the opposite side of the bed in order to get some sleep.

Close to the ocean, nice and clean

Quiet neighborhood, parking was close to the door. Had an elevator, which many other hotels nearby did not. Hot tub and sauna felt good after walking all day. Near the lighthouse, aquarium and restaurants. Fresh squeezed orange juice and continental breakfast of muffins, bagels, boiled eggs, instant oatmeal, etc. Refrigerator and microwave in room.

Rude front desk: here, sign this. What am I signing? Read it! Rez was 2 people/4 days. One bath towel was all we had! Unacceptable! Continental breakfast was a sugar/carbo explosion 💥 Yogurt was all flavored (sugar)Oatmeal was flavored (sugar). Baked products were all white flour! Where’s the Greek yogurt or whole wheat/whole grain bread? The only protein was cold/super dry hard boiled eggs. Inedible! The room and bedding reeked of soot from the ancient fireplace. Our hair and clothes began smelling like we had been at a campfire. Unhealthy and uninhabitable The TV offered no option to download an app. The channels were limited and the picture was fuzzy- Unwatchable! The Wi-Fi only offered 1 bar of service. Could not make a phone call from our room! We left a day early. Waste of time/Waste of money! How does this qualify as a recommended 8.2 property? No way!

Location was good. Service was pleasant.

We stayed here for a nights. The only issue we had was the mattress springs seemed to have had it. We did sleep but the bed wasn't that great. Staff very helpful and polite.

Our stay was amazing! Excellent hidden gem

We enjoyed the location very much and the room was clean.

Perfect little stop in one of the most beautiful locations in the world. It's so centrally located. Just darling. Loved the desk staff : )

Property near the ocean and handy to downtown Monterey. Probably very nice at one time, but needs updating. Plenty of parking. Needs more outlets for charging, electronics, etc. "Continental Breakfast" was much nicer than we expected including eggs, fresh fruit, delicious pastries.

A sweet place with easy access to walking to the coast and lighthouse and just a mile from town.

The hotel was clean with good parking. Unfortunately, the beds terribly outdated and worn, which caused me and my wife to not get a good nights sleep, along with aches and pains. The room nor have air conditioning which caused a couple hot nights sleeping. If the beds are updated, it would have been a great stay.

We like our stay, quite, clean, friendly staff. We enjoyed jacuzzi, sauna, pool, we will come back
