A WONDERFUL EXPERIENCE
This was a great location to celebrate my mom's 82nd bday. As soon as she opened the room she immediately said.. "oh, this is a beautiful room! Take advantage to wine down with the wine and cheese moment and definitely enjoy breakfast! The jacuzzi was wonderful to enjoy a last discussion on what the days experiences entailed. I would definitely come back again! The location was PERFECT

This was our first visit to Hotel Carmel and it was a wonderful experience. The lobby staff, especially Anne, were inviting and helpful. We enjoyed the homey feel and it felt more like a B&B rather than a hotel. We will definitely be back!

6/10 Good

Hotel cute and quaint. Limited parking spaces. Great pub restaurant below hotel good food. Room cozy. TV service did not work properly. Service quite bad with house keeping. Last day Xmas Called for late checkout regulars check out 12:00 They gave until 12:30. At 10:30 cleaning maid knocked on the door to do room. We said no need and placed a do not disturb written note on the door handle from there after every 15min cleaning maid came knocking until 12:00. We ended up checking out at 12 as required. Was a very unpleasant experience.
