Hotel Overview

Within walking distance of Fisherman's Wharf and downtown, the Best Western Plus Monterey Inn makes a comfortable base in Monterey, California, steps from the historic Pacific waterfront.

Old Monterey wraps the hotel in history and sea air. Fisherman's Wharf and the conference center sit a short walk away, the adobe landmarks of the state historic park trace California's first capital, and Cannery Row and the Monterey Bay Aquarium lie just up the shoreline. The neighboring seaside town of Pacific Grove and the Monterey Bay Coastal Trail invite a walk or a bike ride along the water, and Carmel lies just over the hill.

Spacious rooms include a refrigerator and a coffee maker, and some add a fireplace or ocean views. The cool coastal climate keeps rooms comfortable without air conditioning through the year. By the water where California kept its first capital, Monterey rewards a slow stroll.
