Meinungen MARTINE INN Pacific Grove

We had an amazing time at Martine Inn!???? The hotel is beautifully located next to the sea, truly amazing views from the breakfast room (also great breakfast). The staff was incredibly nice and attentive and the family suite room perfect for the four of us. Would definitely come back when we’re visiting Monterey again!

Our trip to Monterey was wonderful due to the hospitality, nostalgic accommodations, delicious, homemade hot breakfasts and a front row seat to the Monterey coastline. We’ve stayed at the Martine Inn several times. It has definitely become our favorite. Judy, the manager, makes sure your every need is met. She does it with an infectious laugh, attention to every detail and a welcoming personality that makes you feel as though you are home.

Rustic beauty with wonderful views and amazing hot breakfast. Who can be perfect since 1899? But what you get is elegance and superior hospitality, even when you air out the musty room smell, you’ll still be happy with the value at this charming Monterey bed & breakfast.

Beautiful location. Very personalized service as soon as we arrived. Very cool bed and breakfast with a Victorian feel. Wine and hors d'oeuvres in the evening. Full service breakfast. Clean. Walk to the ocean/path. We will definitely be going back!

Best location and the staff always goes above and beyond.

The staff was great.

Good location, nice room (small). However, we called and were quoted $239 (less a senior discount, plus tax), which we both heard. We were shown the room and were quoted the same price. When we checked our email the next day it was $295 (we were never given a paper receipt), plus taxes. The person who checked us in claimed we were mistaken & heard wrong (she was covering for her mistake). The manager did not honor the price we were quoted & said we should have checked our credit card statement right after booking. We were told we paid the correct price for the room, but the price we were quoted should have been honored. In the service industry, isn’t the customer always right? Not at the Martine Inn!

Beautiful B&B in a perfect location! My husband and I spent two nights in the Marie room which has a gorgeous ocean view. It was so peaceful lying in bed in the morning watching dolphins and sea lions swimming in the waves and the seabirds flying through the morning fog. The bed was cozy and the room (the whole building, for that matter) had lovely antique furniture and art.

A full service breakfast is served each morning in the dining room overlooking the ocean, with a fire in the fireplace. The food was outstanding! One morning we had French toast with berries and another morning was eggs with Parmesan potatoes. There is one main entree each day but other choices available if desired (scrambled eggs, oatmeal, granola). There is a tea and coffee bar 24/7 in the lobby. We didn’t get to try the evening appetizers since we were out.

The B&B is located in a quiet neighborhood of beautiful antique homes, right across the street from the ocean with a nice walking trail along the shore. In the morning we walked this trail 15 minutes to the north to visit Lovers Point and beaches. Walking 10 minutes in the other direction takes you to the aquarium and cannery row. It’s a flat trail with gorgeous views. Perfect way to enjoy the area without worrying about driving and parking! The B&B has its own small, free parking lot but be aware spaces are first-come first-served and difficult for large cars to get into. However, there is free street parking with plenty of available spots.

We didn’t spend a lot of time hanging out in the B&B but it’s a very peaceful spot, with multiple sitting rooms overlooking the ocean and a pretty courtyard garden with a goldfish pond. Deer frequented the yard. Every staff member we met was very polite and helpful. Be aware you must check in by 8pm as there is no front desk and no staff there overnight. When you arrive you ring a bell to get your keys.

This is a great place for couples but I would not recommend it for families with children. It’s a quiet place with a lot of breakable antiques and an older clientele. Not kid-friendly.

Overall it was a great stay and we would definitely return!

We loved this place. Sherry who welcomed us on our arrival for one night showed us around and we enjoyed some appetizers, much appreciated after a long day of travel. I found the history that is reflected in every corner of the inn compelling. Sure it’s dated but it’s comfortable and unstuffy and interesting. The location is perfect for exploring on foot. We enjoyed the breakfast and the staff were friendly, helpful and attentive. We stayed on the second floor in the Parke room, large with a lovely view, comfy bed. Wonderful spot.

My review is late from probable a year ago, breakfast was fantastic!, service super good as well!, I just believe rooms need more attention and remodeling.

Great location just across the street from the ocean and easy walking to the south to aquarium and cannery row (5-10 mins), or to the north to lover's point (15-20 mins). For anyone seeking a charming bed-n-breakfast experience, this is a very good choice. All the decor / art work / furniture is from another era and adds to the experience. Hot breakfast and afternoon light happy hour (dining room overlooks the ocean) and parking included. Room had its own bathroom, though sink was in the room (not in the bathroom itself). Friendly service was great. Would definitely stay here again.

We were not expecting much as it was a very last minute trip but were BLOWN AWAY by our stay.

We were greeted with a tour of the house (super old and creaky house with a lot of character and antiques), a charcuterie board, and different choices of wine - complimentary, of course. Apparently this was a daily occurence in the afternoon. In the mornings, we had complimentary breakfast with the best service and an amazing ocean view.

Rooms are not big and look old but are cozy, comfy, and come with a fridge!

The staff are SO welcoming and the service is top-notch (we asked if they had a ironing board and they went out of their way to set one up for us right away!)

Location is also amazing; it is minutes away from the aquarium and "busy" area.

We thoroughly loved our stay and would recommend this place to anyone. If we were to ever visit Monterey again, we would definitely book the Martine Inn.

1st class breakfast service. A very friendly staff. Spectacular views of Monterey Bay.

You will love it! Kind inn keepers Yuri and Rich made our stay comfortable. Walk to PG, Lover’s Point or Monterey and Cannery Row. Do it!
