Central California Hotels with Hot Tubs

"I’m so glad I chose the Portola Hotel for my stay in Monterey. After going back and forth between several hotel options, this one ended up being the perfect choice—and I’ll definitely be staying here every time I come back! The location is incredibly convenient—right in the heart of Monterey, walking distance to everything I wanted to explore. Parking was a breeze, and I used the valet service throughout my stay. It was quick, prompt, and made things so much easier. The hotel itself is extremely clean and well-maintained. My room was spotless, quiet, and the bed was super comfortable—I slept so well each night. Housekeeping did a fantastic job every day, keeping everything fresh and tidy without ever being intrusive. Overall, the Portola Hotel provided a relaxing, hassle-free experience in a beautiful setting. Highly recommended for anyone visiting Monterey! "

"I liked everything about this property. There was great food options near by and walkable distance. The rooms were suuuper cool and comfy. There was a pool and tub, my son loved that! It was quiet and we had our privacy for sure. Definitely recommend this place. There wasn’t complementary breakfast, however, the price was low and reasonable. "

"We came with our 1 year old and everyone was very welcoming and friendly. The staff at the front desk and restaurant were wonderful and they made us all very comfortable and happy to stay at the Carmel Mission Inn. The food at Shearwater Tavern was excellent and I would highly recommend. My husband was so impressed with the service that he complimented me choice of hotel "

"The staff was great and accommodating."

"All the employees that we ran into a really nice and I like the little sitting room where we could go and hang out and read and have some little snacks. I really liked that even though our view of the ocean wasn’t that large it was nice because we could sit on the patio and see it see the surf as it reached the sand. Too bad there wasn’t as much sun as we had hoped. And there were no lounge chairs. I don’t know"

"“Old style” Hotel, right in the middle of town, so much to do and see. Great restaurants right next to the hotel, I chose to park across the street, in the public parking structure, easy in and out. The room was basic but clean, very small tv, clean sheets, bathroom was small but clean and nice. No complaints at all, it’s priced right, for what you get, in this area. "

"My daughter broke her leg and dislocated her ankle while working in the National Park. She landed at the hospital in Fresno. I flew in from out of town to help, having never been to Fresno before. Our stay involved last second changes, chaos waiting for the doc to decide when her 2nd surgery would be, and oh, so many pillows. The management and staff were so understanding, sweet and helpful. Can't recommend them highly enough! So grateful for their caring attention and understanding of our circumstances. "

"Beautiful hotel within walking distance to restaurants, shopping and beaches. Would definitely stay here again. All the staff was so kind and accommodating. Happy hour and live music was great and the views were amazing! "

"We've stayed here several times and it is always very clean. The free drink and appetizer social hour is the cherry on top! "
