The prices listed below range from the lowest (the off season rates/single person – 1 room) to the highest (holidays and weekends /double person – one room). ‘Motel Row’ is situated along part of Munras Ave where motels are stacked up like houses, one after the other. These tend to be smaller one or two story older but well maintained properties, (unlike for instance, “Motel Row” in Tahoe’s South Shore). Most are not immediately within a short walking distance of many of Monterey’s most loved and visited attractions but certainly within a very short drive. Parking is generally not an issue at any of Munras Ave located hotels and is included in your stay.
Other hotels tend to be situated in downtown Monterey or near Cannery Row. For a city of this size, Monterey has an abnormally high number of hotel properties. Tourism is a driving force in this regard.
Prices subject to change without notice.
Unless otherwise noted all Phone Numbers are in the 831 area code.
