This was our first trip to the Carmel/Moneterey area of California. I did a LOT of investigating online since this was my first time traveling and not staying in a large hotel chain such as a Hilton or Marriott property. Service: Very nice front desk lady at while checking-in late in the evening. She was very helpful in answering local... More

I travel to the Monterey area a few times a year and have stayed in many different Hotels, Inns, B&Bs, and in all the surrounding areas. I've been searching for a great place that is beautiful, well kept, and has exceptional customer service, Horizon Inn is the place. I have stayed there at least 8 times over the years and... More

Spent a couple nights during Christmas week. I do not have any complaints - wish I could have used the outdoor hot tub and had breakfast outside, but that was mother natures decisions. At 240/night in the winter season, I felt the price was inflated for Christmas week, but not being a hospitality person in California, maybe the owners know... More

My wife and I stopped in Carmel for our Christmas eve-eve wedding annaversary on the way to Chrismas with family. The bed was so good we called when we got home to see where we could buy one! I tried to turn down the offer of an early morning delivered breakfast as we were meeting pals at a local breakfast... More

Thank you for taking the time to write in and highlight some of the amenities that really stood out to make your trip extra special. I took particular note of your comments with respect to the "amber lighting" above the light switches. It is actually a "gift" from the State of CA when we signed on to help conserve energy.... More

We just spent two nights at the Horizon Inn and it was everything we wanted. We were met with a very warm welcome by Brenda and John, who, I found out at the end of our stay, was the owner. They were most accommodating at helping us settle in and sending us to all of their favorite spots in Carmel.... More

We stayed here for two nights during November 2011. The room was very comfortable. The advertised 'partial ocean views' were brilliant. Breakfast in a basket was left outside the door first thing in the morning. My only gripe would be that the hotel was a bit out of the centre of Carmel, and they don't have street lights at night,...

We just got back from three nights at this Inn. It's located on the corner of 3rd and Junipero - walking distance to all the shops and restaurants. No need to hassle looking for a parking spot as the hotel provides free parking - oh, and free wireless!! We had the basic king room. It was very roomy with ample... More

Thank you so much for taking the time to send in such a nice review of our inns. I truly feel like you touched on many important aspects of our property that make us stand out. We work very hard to provide a superior quality product for a very affordable price. Even our standard rooms, as you very eloquently pointed... More

My husband and I stayed 2 nights in the Ocean View suite. It was AWESOME! Everything was perfect, the view was breathtaking and we could hear the waves from the ocean all night; the room was spacious, very clean and the bed was extremely comfortable with wonderful linens and the staff was very friendly and helpful. We can't thank you... More

I always return to the Horizon Inn when visiting Carmel! The rooms are comfortable, clean, modern, with a small fridge/eating area. Breakfast arrives in a basket in the am and the property is clean and well-manicured. The hot tub is nice to relax in, but no pool. Location is excellent, within a couple blocks of Ocean, the main shopping street.... More

My sister and I stayed 2 nights in the Ocean View K-9 friendly suites. It was grrrrreat! Extremely comfortable, lots of room and very clean. I had to leave my dog at home at the last minute and the front staff waived the pet fee. This was neither asked for nor expected. I liked that it was off the main... More

Thank you so much for specifically mentioning the cleanliness and comfort of the Lodge. It is extremely important to us that our pet rooms don't feel or look like "pet rooms". Pet owners that travel with their canine companions can and should expect to enjoy the same levels of comfort and cleanliness as those that are traveling without. Overall, we... More
