One of our absolute favorite hotels in NorCal. Happy to bring friends visiting from Australia to Monterey and stay at The Spindrift. Pricy but the views are world class!

Bellman and staff was extremely supportive and helpful. They met all of my needs for my wedding including helping with some chairs I had rented from another company. The room service was great. I can’t wait to come back for another stay

The staff is fantastic! They’re very helpful, and seem happy to help. When we asked for things like ice or extra coffee pods/sugar, they brought them to our room very quickly. The views from this room are so incredible. The hotel provides binoculars to watch the sea life. We saw so many seals! The only “negatives” I have, and they’re so minor, are just that the skylight windows desperately need dusting, and the cover to the heating grate is hanging loose. Absolutely fabulous, though!

A perfect stay for a romantic weekend getaway. The room were very cute with the fireplace and view of Cannery Row, and the plus was that it had a sauna! You can't beat the convenience on staying on Cannery Row just steps away from the aquarium and multiple restaurants and shops. We will definitely return!

It felt like home. Very welcoming. Staff exceptionally cordial and accommodating. Loved the location and loved the room with a view. We were in Monterey for a special personal event and the SpinDrift made it even more special. Thank you.

Amazing hotel, spacious room. It was warm the day we got there and there is no a/c. Windows do open and offer a nice breeze just wish they had screens. Bed was very firm if you like that. Bay view was gorgeous!!!!

I like, very much, that they serve breakfast and bring it to your room. I do miss, though, the full breakfast like we had the last time we stayed here instead of a continental one. Everyone was friendly and helpful. I also like the Valet parking option. The beds are very comfortable and the rooms are roomy and very clean. They knew it was our anniversary, so they brought us a bottle of wine with a note and it was in our room when we first walked in. Very nice! Hope to visit again soon.. lovely place.

The breakfast was always late and not very good. The front desk was not efficient and we waited more than 30 minutes for our valet parked car. The room was nice. The bathroom ok. Bathtub shower combination was fine. I prefer separate shower stall.

This was perfect for our three-generation visit.
We came for the aquarium as my grandson had never been. We also wanted to spend some time on the beach. I just wanted a hotel that would feel special and wouldn't require driving or walking long distances.
