Perched over the spectacular Northern Californian coast, on Monterey's historic Cannery Row, is the waterfront Monterey Plaza Hotel & Spa. This modern Mediterranean resort, seemingly from across the globe, is perfectly situated between crystal waters of the bay and the lush evergreen background of central California. Spacious and warm rooms, with soothing colors and plush décor, are inviting and pleasing the instant you set foot inside. Walk past large picture windows, through sliding doors, to a fabulous view of the bay from your balcony. Complete with large marble baths and all the modern amenities, each room lets in the natural beauty of Monterey Bay, and will put you in a California state of mind.

Checked into a different hotel after the first night. The lobby looked great but the room had a very uncomfortable bed, an old ugly looking carpet, and a half-cleaned shower. The ocean view is available only if you are standing up! However, the restaurant was great and the staff were very friendly.

Amazing place to stay. Staff was very pleasant and room was extremely clean. Restaurant and lobby bar was nice. Roof top hot tubs overlooking the bay was definitely our favorite. Location was perfect. It was in the middle between canary row shops and fisherman wharf so we were able to walk everywhere. We will definitely stay again.

We stayed for 2 nights.,,room was very nice as was the views. Balcony is highly recommended. Staff was incredibly nice and accommodating. Resort is large but you don’t feel lost. Valet is a bit spicy ($45.00/noght) but all other fees were representative of a good hotel. Highly recommended - we will be back

Having never been to Monterey, we did enough research to know this was a nice hotel in a nice location. Wrong. It is a GREAT hotel in a GREAT location. Perched literally on the bay at the end of Cannery row and a short ride to Fisherman’s Village, this is exactly where you want to be. Starting with Trevor at Valet, Summer at Concierge and every single staff member from check in to bar to restaurant, was very outgoing, friendly & professional. Our king room faced the bay and the waves soothed us to sleep and were great to wake up to. Food in the restaurant was fantastic (crab eggs Benedict, salmon and short rib pasta bolognese). Easy starting point for a trip through 17 mile drive and Big Sur. 100% would stay here on next visit!

We only stayed for one night but the lobby, room and gym were all very nice. The rooms are spacious and we opted for the partial ocean view. The view was nice but unfortunately we were there during a rainy period. The bathroom was a bit dated but functional.
