This hotel is clean but dated! It’s advertised as quaint and charming which the courtyard is but the room is just old with old furnishings. The faucet in my bathroom sink was broken so I got whatever temperature water was running in the other bathroom. It is walkable to some nice restaurants and shops. Parking is very tight! This place just needs a remodel!

We have stayed at the Carmel Fireplace Inn a few times now, and it has been consistently good. The gardens are always beautiful. The rooms are clean and comfortable. The Inn is a nice walk away from many restaurant and shopping options in the beautiful town of Carmel-by-the-Sea.

It was small living quarters, but fortunately we are fairly small, and it was adequate for us. The location and people who work at the hotel is definitely the best part about the property, and we would consider excellent.
