Hospitality and view were excellent. The value didn’t align with expectations. Food was too frilly and overpriced. Staying at this hotel for the view is great but no other amenities included and for the price, some items should be included such as a continental breakfast, coffee bar, fruit, etc.

We enjoyed a relaxing weekend here at this property. The staff were amazing from check in to the valet with the exception of a woman at the valet stand named Frida. She wasn’t in the best mood and it showed in her service. She acted like I hadn’t checked in to the hotel and overall was so unpleasant. However, the rest of the valet staff made up for her sour demeanor, so it was fine. Other than that, the room was stunning and filled with amenities. We had the best sleep! The restaurants on site were great, the location to Cannery Row is so convenient and we made a lot of beautiful core memories.

After searching hotels in Monterey for 3 days I finally decided on Monterey plaza hotel and spa. This trip was for 3 adults, 1 baby for just one night stay but I wanted to make sure we were in a good location and the views were perfect. I was so happy with everything this hotel had to offer and the customer service was 10/10. Carson was the best, he made me feel so welcomed. The valet staff was excellent; I didn’t get any names but every single person working the valet was great. We were able to walk to cannery row/the aquarium and leave our car with valet even after checkout until we were ready to head home.

Super slow service… waited and hour and a half to get our connecting door unlocked. Lot’s of nickel and diming (Forced Valet, forced bellman use) $37 for a glass of bad wine in the lobby. Generally dismissive staff. Beautiful location though.
