The Old Monterey Inn is amazing. I only wish that we had more time to spend there. I would have liked to be able to relax for awhile in their beautiful gardens. It is so clear that Katy and Lawrence put their heart and soul into running this beautiful Bed and Breakfast as no detail is overlooked. The breakfast was... More

The Old Monterey Inn is nestled on the side of a hill with the most beautiful, lush, green garden I have ever seen! There are numerous trails winding through out the garden, with beautiful flowers, bushes, trees, and grass. Throught out the pathways, there are quaint places to sit and read or relax the beautiful garden! We stayed in "The... More

We spent two nights here. One night we spent in The Library Room and one night inThe Garden Cottage. Loved them both. A very special B&B and we will return. Your hosts go above and beyond to make your stay everything you want it to be. Can not say enough good things about this Inn it is a must do!

After a long flight from Boston to San Francisco then a two hour drive we couldn’t wait to get settled in the Old Monterey Inn. When we first arrived my husband and I were greeted by Katy and were given the tour of the Inn. The craftsmanship of the main house is full of uniqueness, personality and appeal. The outdoor... More

My husband and I stayed at the Old Monterey Inn for our one year wedding anniversary and we have never been happier with a place. The Inn is beautiful, the gardens are so peaceful and our room (Chawton) was so cozy I didn't want to leave there. Kathryn checked us in and gave us a tour. She couldn't have been... More

This was a very pleasant stay! Extremely quiet and very relaxing. They automatically make you feel like you're at home by them giving you the key to come in and out of the B&B. The staff are kind and friendly. A little pricey but for the hospitality and the rooms, it is totally worth every penny! Definitely staying again!

You will have absolutely no excuse(s) for not relaxing at the Old Monterey Inn! If you can't relax here, there is no hope! Wonderful hosts, food, rooms, staff, service and property! Katy and Lawrence (owners) are so enthusiastic and proud of what their inn offers. They should be! All B&B owners should take lessons for them!

The Old Monterey Inn is EXACTLY what you want a Bed & Breakfast to be. Katy and Lawrence have not left one detail untouched. The grounds are beautiful, the rooms tastefully appointed and your every need has already been thought of. And to top it off, breakfast is delicious and beautifully presented. We were greeted by a pianist filling the... More

What a gorgeous property. We stayed in November, travelling with friends and mother in law. The rooms were amazing, just as we had expected from the website. The hosts were friendly and informative, and we really enjoyed breakfast with the other guests. The grounds are beautiful and the misty rain made it even more romantic. We travelled from Australia and... More

A fairy tale getaway...every corner of the inn has something special. Gorgeous grounds, private patios, beautifully decorated rooms, gourmet breakfasts, wine and cheese with music in the afternoons, chocolates as you leave. I stayed in The Library, spending delightful hours reading in front of the fire. Katy and the staff did everything to ensure guests were comfortable and happy. A... More
