This property was in a great location. The cleaning staff were awesome, everything spotless. The Inn staff were friendly and very helpful in recommendations when asked. I loved the complimentary breakfast service (even though it was a little redundant( the change in fresh fruit and pastries were nice, though, and everything was good). The restaurant they contracted with next door that provided the breakfast service (as they have no kitchen)is excellent for lunch and dinner. Although there were numerous places to eat in the area.I liked choosing my own time for breakfast and they were always punctual. I loved the complimentary wine, cheese/crax, with nuts and dried fruit at 4:30 daily. We tended to really look forward to it. I honestly can't say there was anything I would complain about however parking would have been nice. They only had valet for a price of course, but it was fairly reasonable and convenient. I highly recommend The Spindrift Inn.

This was an anniversary trip. Beautiful hotel on the beach, ocean view room, windows you could open to listen to the waves, and a fireplace in the room. Service was very good. Recommendations for dinner was a small local place that was very good. The staff were very friendly. We very much enjoyed our stay and plan to return.

Beautiful, Clean room and friendly staff. Beach view was gorgeous. Room did not have good air flow, so got very stuffy. Windows opened thank goodness, but no window screens. Breakfast delivered to our room was a perfect touch, but pastries were not fresh.

Beautiful hotel

From the moment we arrived until we left 2 days later our stay was wonderful! The staff greeted us upon arrival, our room was very clean & comfortable with an amazing view of Monterey bay! The valet were very helpful & as we were checking out they graciously allowed us to store our luggage & car while we visited the aquarium. Breakfast was included in our stay & was served to us on a silver tray! Thank you Spindrift for your hospitality! We highly recommend this hotel to anyone!

Problem with this location is the street noise, unless your room is on water side. No air conditioning means windows need to be open. Theres a bar directly across the street from hotel.

We had an ocean view room and it was very nice! Very nice beds and pillows. Valet parking was reasonable. They have a wine and cheese reception in the lobby at around 4:00 pm each afternoon which is nice. It’s a very convenient location to the bars and restaurants on Cannery Row
