Great location and friendly staff. Have stayed here a few times over the years. Rooms are nicely decorated and sized as typical for an Inn in Carmel. Parking available which is a plus. Location puts you on the main shopping road and a short walk down to the beach entry.

This is a quaint, very charming, centrally located , “Super” Staff, great parking and we enjoyed our stay. (The Hotel itself needs some upgrading as far as condition of the furniture, carpets, door handles, bath faucets, towel racks, and dusting, we were in room #45.)That was for the owner, they need the extra hours to do this.

Loved the historic nature of the hotel and its location in town and near the ocean. Wish there were an elevator for those like me who are handicapped.

The Pine Inn is a historic hotel. For the price we paid and location of the hotel-in the heart of Carmel, it was fine but I would not recommend. Rooms did not have fridges or coffee makers and very few electrical outlets. Biggest complaint was that sheets and towels smelled like wet dog. Cleanliness of carpet at furniture also questionable. No a/c which is uncommon in Carmel but our room was stuffy. Hotel did provide fan which helped. Also, parking is nightmare especially on weekends. We arrived Saturday afternoon and had to find street parking for two hours and then keep checking back until a spot was available on hotel lot.
