One of the Best Hotels In Monterey

This charming hotel is exactly as it appears in the photo. The employees are fantastic, the location is perfect. The breakfast could be considered a continental plus, order muffins their baker is fabulous. The bed was so comfortable, the fireplace topped it off. We stayed in an ocean view deluxe in 201(we did order last minute), this was a great room, and if it is the last one left take it for sure, the wall of the adjoining building is in view, in any of the other 5 ocean deluxe that wouldn't be the case. Wall included this was still a 5 because it was only minimally annoying, from the bed it didn't impede the view, just the bench seat on the side. Stay here!

This place was all we could hope for and we wished we had stayed longer. The room was lovely and the staff were incredibly kind and knowledgeable. The location was perfect for all that we wished to do while in Monterey.

Lovely hotel of the highest quality - excellent in all respects. If you want an ocean view you can choose it, but we preferred the town view from our balcony overlooking Cannery Row. Breakfast in bed (the only option for breakfast) was great fun, and with the log fire in the room blazing away it was a comfortable feeling. Indeed, a very romantic hotel for couples! (Not suitable for families!) Excellent staff and services.

We spent one night at the Spindrift. It is the perfect location to explore the area and it is on the beach. We were greeted with wine and cheese upon our arrival during their evening reception! The rooms are quaint and cozy. The fireplace was great for a chilly night. Breakfast and coffee were brought to our room at the time of our choice. Wish we stayed more than just one night!

This elementary teacher needed a get-away to start spring break. Could not have made a better choice. From the front desk greeting in to the fire in the fireplace, check-in evening the wind down began. Waking up to the sound of the surf out the window, breakfast delivered on a silver tray, and watching otters play off-shore made Saturday morning perfect...and that's just the first 24 hours.

Excellent service that included a delicious continental breakfast delivered to your room! It’s right in the heart of Monterey and walking distance to the Aquarium and local eateries. I’d give this place 6 Stars if I could!

Amazing ocean front hotel with a great view of the ocean. It's located on cannery row just down the road from the aquarium. They have wood burning fire places in the rooms. I had a corner view with a almost 180 degree view. Pricey but definitely worth it. The windows have viewing benches right on the window. Breathtaking!!!!

I booked 2 rooms for my cousin visiting from North Carolina and it was a perfect stay. We met a great group of people the first night during wine and cheese and ended up meeting them every night of our stay. The rooftop is a nice place to enjoy a glass of wine and the view of the bay. Will come back again

On a road trip from LA to San Francisco we chose Monterey as one of our overnight stops. I am so glad we booked Spindrift Inn. The room was magnificent ... we had a top floor corner room, it was huge, beautifully appointed and the windows .. wow .. opened fully and all we could see was ocean (and it was so nice to sleep with the windows open to hear the ocean noise lulling us to sleep). The bed was super comfy and it was just icing on the cake to light the fireplace and be able to sit around the fire. Definitely lived up to expectations and I hope I get the chance to stay here again one day.

My husband and I decided to celebrate our anniversary with a few days away in Monterey. We read about Spindrift in an article from Fortune magazine and decided to give it a try. We are so glad we did. The staff was very pleasant and helpful. We did hit a little bump with check-in as we arrived at 4pm but our room still wasn’t available. The staff went above and beyond to make it right though and we couldn’t have been happier with our stay. Our room was lovely, clean, quiet and had amazing views. From a prior review we decided to bring an extra fan since my husband and I run warm and we were glad we had it in addition to the ceiling fan in the room. The happy hour and silver tray breakfast were great as well. The hotel restaurant was delicious and the location can’t be beat. Overall we are very happy with our experience at Spindrift and plan to make it a regular on our list of weekend get aways.
