Lovely boutique hotel with a great location and incredible views of Monterey bay. Beautiful design everywhere, from the lovely gardens to the lobby and rooms. You notice the high attention to detail in every corner. Excellent service too, from the receptionist at the check-in counter to the breakfast and cleaning staff. I would love to return for a longer stay soon.

I stayed at this hotel about 34 years ago, before they did a lot of expansion.The hotel is beautiful and the room was very pretty and it was oceanfront. The problem with oceanfront at this hotel is that the road in front of the hotel is extremely loud all the way through midnight. Also, I paid a little bit more for oceanfront with a fireplace, and it was a fake mantle with an electric light that looks like a fire. I just feel like this place is so nice, it would’ve been better to either advertise that that’s what it is or don’t do it at all. Many places in this area have actual fireplaces and I’m sure that there are rooms in this hotel that have actual fireplaces, but this looked very cheap and it really was nothing more than a light.

A lovely, picturesque, Victorian boutique hotel with the most amazing location and incredible views of Monterey Bay from the room. You notice the attention to every detail in the interior decor and the manicured gardens all around the property. Wonderful staff and service, great breakfast with healthy choices included. My husband and I enjoyed walking the coastal trail from Lover’s Point to historic Cannery Row and back to Pacific Grove, breathing the fresh air, watching the otters and other wildlife and lush vegetation around the path and stopping every few steps for yet another picture with incredible views. I would highly recommend staying at this hotel when visiting the Monterey area.

My wife and I have stayed in great hotels and B&B's all over world for decades and our experience at Seven Gables Inn was absolutely one of the best. The Cypress Room was a thing out of a dream. Staff was all VERY welcoming and helpful. Highly recomend. Not sure how anyone could be let down

The Seven Gables Inn pills out all the stops to make their guests feel welcome and comfortable. The property is absolutely beautiful, and to be able to sit in the lobby and watch sea otters, seals, sea lions and other wildlife is pretty special. It’s a short walk to restaurants and the spectacular Monterey Bay Aquarium, and a quick and lovely drive or bike ride through 17 Mile Road to Carmel. Absolutely lovely place to stay - felt five stars all the way!
