Nice hotel only 1 block from Cannery Row. 2 blocks to the aquarium. Nice clean rooms with gas fireplace, comfortable beds and a nice breakfast/snack basket at check-in. Plus, parking is free for guests. We parked, checked-in and walked to the shops and sights of Monterey. They could help guests a little more by placing a fan in each room.... More

Easy walk to Cannery row & aquarium. Very affordable for location! The carpet, bedding, fixtures, & furnishing are kept current and clean but hotel shows it's age. We have stayed here many times over the years and appreciate the friendly service and the generous snack basket they provide. Other pluses; great views of the bay, after checkout you can leave...

We came to Monterey for the day, but decided on a whim to stay overnight and stayed here. There are much nicer places to stay, but for us, we just wanted a place to crash for the night, knowing we'd not really be in the room a whole lot. This place is great because it is so centrally located to... More

The Otter Inn is a good deal and a great location for visiting Monterey. We stayed in an average room with two queens. They were comfortable and the rooms were clean. They gave us a basket of pastries and snacks when we checked in and told us that we could refill if we needed. We were just a short walk... More

I believe we paid $79 for a one night stay on a Friday night. This is a good deal in the Cannery Row area. Also nice was the basket you receive of danish and goodies. But, I have to say the walls are paper thin and we were up all night listening to an inebriated guest yell at the top... More

Couldn't have asked for a better location. The staff were very friendly. They give you a goodie basket which was nice for snacks. Room was older but clean. Comforter was wonderful and luxurious. Would stay again!

We've been staying here twice a year for a decade. Great location, right in the middle of the Cannery Row area. Rec trail is right out the front door, aquarium is two minutes walk in one direction, wharf is 10 minute walk in the other direction. Otter Inn is not fancy and not high dollar, but if you want a...

Clean, quiet and convienient. 2 minute stroll down the hill to restaurants and bars, 5minutes walk to aquarium. We hadn't booked anything and it was a holiday weekend. We got their last room at a great rate and a big smile. Great to be able to park the car under the hotel and walk.

We stayed for 1 night in March last year and needed a place to stay without pre-booking. We picked this hotel because it was cheaper than 2 other local hotels. A clean, good sized room for the 3 of us with parking under the hotel. In a good location within very easy walking reach of the harbour, aquarium and the... More
