From the reviews
Definitely paradise. We've visited Monterey many times, but to experience it as a guest here was what made this trip unforgettable. I met Wendy and Charlotte who were so kind, helpful, and made me feel special during my stay.
Beautiful location, incredible views of California's majestic coastline, clean clear weather mixed with cool coastal breeze & bright sunshine. Hotel staff was very friendly & accommodating, rooms were very nice, luxurious & clean, with amazing views off the balcony overlooking the bay, romantic working fireplace for…
Family and I are average hotel stayers and I must say this is one of the nicest places we’ve ever stayed at. All the staff are friendly and respectful and the entire facility smells amazing. The general room was nice, even had a fire place, and was of good size.
Pros: * Excellent oceanfront location. * Walking distance to aquarium, restaurants, and shops. * Comfy beds and pillows. * Beautiful Monterey Bay views * Top notch service. Cons: * Expensive parking - $ 45++ * Some rooms face the street or buildings instead of the ocean.
Getting married at InterContinental the Clement Monterey by IHG
Two things make the tour worth the drive. First, see the ceremony spot at the exact time of day you'd say your vows — a west-facing beach glows at sunset but bakes at noon, and you'll want to feel the wind, watch where the sun sits, and walk the path your guests take across the sand. Second, bring your real questions: the weather backup (where does the ceremony move if it rains or the wind kicks up?), who pulls the beach permit, the sound-ordinance curfew, the catering and bar policy, and exactly what's included — chairs, setup, and teardown on sand are where quotes quietly diverge. Peak beach dates book 12–18 months out, so if the tour feels right, ask what's open in your season before you leave.
