Monterey Plaza Hotel & Spa

Location. Gently hugging the waters edge, the Monterey Plaza Hotel & Spa is an enchanting resort property with the posture of a seaside Mediterranean hamlet. Located on the shores of California's prized Monterey Bay, the hotel attracts vacationing professionals and honeymooners from around the world. A prominent figure on Cannery Row, the Monterey Plaza Hotel is neighbors with charming boutiques, fine dining and a breezy boardwalk, where sea lions gather in tide pools without hesitation. Of interest to families and nature enthusiasts, this portion of Monterey Bay serves as a major habitat for marine life, and the Monterey Bay Aquarium is only four blocks away.
Hotel Features. Overlooking the deep blue Pacific from a five-story rooftop sundeck, the hotel spa features two spa tubs, a fireplace, and an impressive menu of massages, baths, facials and body treatments. Schooners Bistro on the Bay offers both indoor and alfresco dining, where soothing coastal winds render a delightful ambience atop their heated outdoor terrace that overlooks the Pacific. Other well conceived amenities include childcare, a library and 24-hour room service.

Guestrooms. With the California sun pouring through floor to ceiling windows, the eyes move effortlessly around these guestrooms, where crown molding, textured wallpaper and beautiful carpets give guests plenty to take in. Elaborating on a theme of classical design, the interiors feature mahogany reproduction period furniture and framed oil paintings. Taking a personal interest in the comfort of each guest, the Monterey Plaza Hotel accommodations feature marble bathrooms with scales, telephones, bathrobes and designer toiletries. Other important guestroom amenities include 27- inch televisions, CD players and stocked minibars.

Expert Tip. Located just across the street, Adventures by the Sea rents bicycles to guests who are interested in following the seaside recreational trail along the coast to Pebble Beach, which is only 17 miles away.
