I think disappointing would best describe this relic of an Inn. There is Old with Charm, and then there is just Old; you know, pealing paint, tired furnishings, broken tiles, over grown landscaping, chips and cracks, sagging floors & decks, everything that goes with a property ready for demolition. The pet friendly feature is what led us here. Unaware as... More

This place is not the Ritz, however, the rooms were comfortable, clean and nicely appointed. The selling point for me was the fireplace in every room. Great on those chilly nights (which are often in Carmel). More

The place is a bit older like many of the inns in Carmel but the people could not be friendlier! The gentleman proprietor is a true gem offering a smile and a laugh that is infectious. His sense of humor and kindness is a joy to everyone he greets. We had a lovely room that had been recently redone which... More

Small but nice room. It is a bit of an older establishment. Not glamorous or glitzy, but sufficient. Continental breakfast was fine, not extraordinary. Location is superb, a 2 block walk to Ocean Avenue, 10 minutes to the beach. More

Not much value here. Overpriced for a very basic motel feel of a room. Nothing to look forward to here. More

We were driving the Pacific Highway one didn't have a room booked so stopped T the tourist office for a recommendation...we weren't disappointed. It wasn't expensive (with breakfast included), the room was chintzy and the real fire was gorgeous. It's right in the centre of Carmel which is a GORGEOUS place - we loved it. More

This is the first time we stayed at this B&B. It's located two blocks away from Ocean Avenue, the main shopping street in Carmel. We love coming to Carmel and the Monterey Pennisula and have stayed ay several hotels and B&B's. Carmel Fireplace Inn is very cute and the room was clean. You get free internet access and cable TV.... More

We booked a last minute/spontaneous overnight trip to Carmel and found online the Carmel Fireplace Inn. We stayed in the San Antonio room and were nicely surprised. It had all of the amenities we needed for a one night stay and a very cozy gas fireplace plus a flat screen TV. We liked that it was quietly tucked in the... More
