Seven Gables is one of our favorite place to stay and this stay did not disappoint. So many good features--excellent ocean view, beautifully decorarted rooms, morning breakfast buffet, comfortable bed, upgraded bathroom, helpful staff, and close to walking paths along the ocean. Be ready to carry luggage up stairs for top floor rooms. This is the perfect location to watch the ocean and relax. Excellent place. Highly recommended.

This property was exceptional! It is so very clean, comfortable, safe and welcoming! It’s right across the street from Lovers point, and we enjoyed watching the sea life from there. We were within walking distance to the quaint downtown part of Pacific Grove, where we got dinner. We had large windows all around our room and a beautiful view of the ocean! The bed was very comfortable, and the breakfast was delicious! Would highly recommend!

A perfect, cute little getaway stay in a small town with amazing scenery. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The complimentary wine/champagne was an amazing touch to the place. The rooms had a beautiful view by the water and were well kept. The complimentary cookies were AMAZING. I can't stress this enough on how good they were. We asked the staff to leave some aside for us as we weren't going to be around at the time the cookies were placed out, and they were so friendly that they wrote our names down and kept some in a ziplock bag for us. Me and my wife will definetely be coming back and staying here in the future.

Came for my mom’s 70th birthday surprise trip and she and I both absolutely loved it. You won’t regret staying here, even I got cold feet because the pictures were scarce for each room. We stayed in the Steinbeck room and it was utterly beautiful, the bathroom had very modern marble and the bed was stunning with the three-sides window right in front of us. Perfect walking distance to Lover’s Point and nearby shopping districts, even for my mom who uses a cane. Staff were so kind and very attentive on their messaging system. Lobby and amenities are so cute, and the Inn as a whole is just right for a laid back relaxation trip.

I recently stayed at this charming bed and breakfast and had a truly wonderful experience. The place itself is nice and quaint, with a warm, inviting atmosphere that immediately makes you feel at home. What really stood out, though, was the staff, they were incredibly attentive and friendly from the moment I arrived. It’s rare these days to find that level of genuine hospitality and personal care. Overall, it was a great stay, and I’d highly recommend it to anyone looking for a relaxing and memorable getaway. Can’t beat the stunning views.
