The Carmel Fireplace Inn is so cozy and comfortable! We had a fabulous time there with our in room fireplace and cozy lounge chairs. The manager Inga made sure that our day was top-notch. Everything about the hotel was divine and charming including the hot shower, and beautiful wood work. The exotic landscaping surrounding it really added to our enjoy our enjoyment. We can't wait to come back! Thank you Ingap for everything that you do. read more

Decided to stay for our anniversary but was very disappointed. The Philippine lady at the counter had the worst attitude, no waters in the rooms, no ac, and not to mention the HORRIBLE parking situation. When I explained to the pinoy lady that there was no parking for us and she said, " figure it out, park on the street " like what the hell!? I pay my hard earned cash here, very expensive too by the way and I get crap service!! Very disappointing....will NOT stay again and I will not recommend this place to anyone.. You would think that for $500 a night you would get exceptional service good attitude at least a parking spot for God sakes... oh and not to mention at least a damn bottle of water... Jesus Christ what a waste of money horrible experience will never come here again read more

Carmel Fireplace - Proof I stayed here and not bs ing - Hotels Near Me - Carmel-by-the-Sea, California

It's not a fancy hotel but it is the most charming little bunch of cottage like units. The location couldn't be better just a block from Ocean Boulevard in the heart of downtown. There is a small parking free parking lot as well. Each unit has a fireplace and split in half front doors. read more

We had a lovely stay. The front office staff was very helpful in getting us oriented to downtown and to the nearest restaurants. We have some mobility problems and walking is limited. Our room was not fancy but very clean and quiet, which we appreciated. We had all we needed. The grounds are beautiful, and I enjoyed some reading time on the patio. Parking is not the easiest thing, which is the only negative we see. But this is Carmel, and you have to know going in, parking can be a hassle. They even sent us off with a snack! We would not hesitate to stay here again if we come back this way. Great job, folks!! read more

I had a reservation at The Fireplace Inn on San Carlos Street in Carmel by the Sea with my husband, my dog and a friend of ours was joining us with her dog. As luck would have it, my dog hurt his paw and had to have surgery yesterday and our reservation was for this Sunday July27-29, I wanted to change the date to another date and I booked reservation through a third party and had trouble changing it! Then I called The Fireplace Inn and spoke to MONICA! Not only did she change the date for me but also changed it for my friend!! I don't think I would have been able to change it through anyone else because Monica really CARED!!!! THANK YOU MONICA FOR BEING SO WONDERFUL AND CHANGING THE DATE FOR ME! NOW I WILL ALWAYS GO TO THE FIREPLACE INN WHEN I GO TO CARMEL. JACKIE G. read more

My wife, my adult daughter, my 12 year old grand daughter, their well behaved Lab Gigi and I spent a couple of nights here and were very pleased. The Fireplace Inn is sort of retro in keeping with the Carmel ambience - keys instead of electronic locks etc. They have certain rooms that are dog friendly (for a $100 fee). My daughter and her entourage shared a room and my wife and I had a separate room. Each room has a gas fired "fireplace" hence the name. It was early April and the fireplace was appreciated. Each room seems to have a different layout. Our room had a regular sized bathroom plus an additional tiny bathroom which was very convenient. Staff was friendly. There is no restaurant but downtown is close. The lot does not have as many parking spaces as there are rooms so you may have to park on the street. All in all a nice place and not your typical Holiday Inn. read more

Price is right however it's a small unit, very clean but the problem is the parking. 18 units n 8 parking spots. Street parking limited to 2 hr during certain parts of the day. Good thing was it's dog friendly read more

This is a very homey hotel, very clean and upgraded towels and friendly staff. Great location, walking distance to great restaurants and other shops. The beds are very comfortable and the front staff, Augustina is wonderful!. Appreciated the filtered water dispenser in the lobby, the conveniently located ice machine and fresh baked chocolate chip cookies. We did have fireplace in our room but the weather was warm enough to not need it. The parking is a little tight but we found a spot each day. read more

I loved this hotel! The room was clean, smelled good, and had such nice decor. The fireplace was one of my favorite parts. It was a cold day in Carmel, and it came in handy. The location was perfect, and allowed my boyfriend and I to walk to everything. The woman working at the front desk was also very sweet. Will be staying here again the next time I visit! read more

Just the cutest place! Loved the fireplace in our cozy room, the toiletries smell heavenly, the staff was so friendly, and the location is killer for walking around Carmel. We came to run the Big Sur Marathon and had the most wonderful time. Never nabbed a spot in the parking lot, but across the street was close enough. Hope to come back someday! read more

The reception was lukewarm and underwhelming. The lady at check in was strictly business and very robotic, not personable at all. But the lodging itself is super cozy and charming! My family stayed in the Dolores III cottage. It's a small one bedroom (without doors/walls to separate) with 1.5 baths, front yard with porch/patio, small full kitchen, 2 small closets, and washer/dryer combo. Two TVs - one in living room and one in "bedroom", two dressers in the "bedroom". It's perfect for 2 adults or 2 adults with 2 young children. It is super adorable. I love how it looks after dark with the soft lighting throughout. I'd definitely stay again. read more

The place is very small-tight but is very clean and well organized. It has a small fireplace in the room which makes staying more comfortable. The place is in downtown and everything is walking distance from here. I was worried about car parking as they have 8 parking spots but street parking is available, so there is nothing to worry about. read more

The Fireplace Inn is in a great location and the beds are comfy. I liked the landscaping around the place. But apart from those, there's very little else to say that paints it in a positive light. For the amount we paid, it's very poor value for money. $470 per night all in. First of all, the parking is a challenge. Seven spots for the residents to battle over and hardly anywhere else to park nearby unless you get extremely lucky. Not an easy problem for the owners to resolve, understandably, but something to note when considering potential places to stay. But the thing that really disappointed me was the poor quality of the room (San Juan). It is extremely dated. A TV from a different era, furniture that looked like it came from a goodwill store, and very badly painted wood paneled walls that seem like they tried priming it and gave up. The bathroom looks like it hasn't been updated since the late 80s. There's a coffee machine on the vanity and ONE caffeinated drip coffee bag. What if both of us want coffee - we have to share one? No breakfast but that was known ahead of time. It's really disappointing that they take so much money off customers and seemingly refuse to update the place and offer more modern services that are appropriate for the cost, all while seemingly having no staff in the office all the time we were there anyway. I will definitely not come back. read more

Possibly the cutest place we were stayed. We stayed in the San Carlos room with our 10 month old puppy Raisin. Walking distance to the beach and restaurants. Reminded me of Big Bear by the Beach. Loved the toiletries. Nice large bathroom and had ADA compliant seat and bars to hold on to for my mom. Instructions for the gas fireplace was clear and check in staff was super nice. They have a ice machine behind the check in building. Felt like I was in a OG fairy tale. Just outside was the sound of a fountain. Very peaceful to fall asleep to. Parking on 4th street has no restrictions. Bathroom was it's own large room with space for styling tools. Once the fireplace started it got real warm overnight. Coastal weather gets chilly so be sure to pack sweaters and hoodies. read more

Carmel Fireplace - Puppy - Hotels Near Me - Carmel-by-the-Sea, California

Do not go to this Inn during car week. It was noisy until midnight every night. Many streets were closed and it was hard to get to the Inn from Ocean Avenue. At the Inn there was dogs barking in units, drunk people partying on the patio until 1am. Above my unit the tenants were very noisy all night. They were walking very hard and I heard every step. The worst part was many days I could not find a parking space in the Inn parking lot. They have 20 units and 10 parking spaces. Trying to find a parking space on the street was impossible. The location is excellent but don't move your car out of the parking lot or you will never find a space again. The price was very high and my room was very small and noisy. I am exhausted. Pass on this one. read more

Whenever we visit Carmel-by-the-Sea we stay at the Carmel Fireplace Inn on San Carlos Street. It is located relatively close to the town center and near dining and shopping. It is a short walk from Carmel Beach, which is my favorite walk in the morning or late afternoon. The complimentary breakfast is a nice spread of pastries, fruit, coffee and juices. After a great breakfast, you're ready to explore Point Lobos or head out to Monterey to see the aquarium. read more

This place I will never stay again Augustine needs to be retrained in her customer service because the way she spoke to me is very unprofessional telling me I need to have common sense when she should have respect for someone checking into this so called establishment you have a coffee machine and a refrigerator in the bathroom which is disgusting and I'm Going to report this to the health department I never been to a hotel who does this and for common sense tell us where or who to call when there is noise but again no one is in the office to call why bother take the money and hid that's my attitude about this place you call nice not at all it's a dump will I stay again never will I report you yes and trying to tow a car when your own people across the way said it's ok maybe you should communicate more with them instead of trying to tow us that was wrong I doubt anyone complained but Augustine herself about the car blocking the walk way and we pay for a room no breakfast that's stupid but wait a coffee pot in the bathroom I might as well take it from the trash or grab it from the homeless guy looking for food this place is a joke will I ever stay here never and as dog friendly your charging a fee but not friendly those sheets where a joke let me give you advise change your team and attitude towards people staying there because there is other places to stay and I am sure this will get read by others I came from San Jose I'm sure and hope this will effect your business and again I will be contacting the health department about your establishment I'm done here I wish I can get my money back it's a waste of 300.00 dollars and I'm glad your response was worthless just like this place and as for Augustine she needs to find a new job 20 something years is not her trade and she admitted to reporting us but that's fine just try to address the issues of the coffee machine and the refrigerator in the bathroom your brushing off and staying here again please your just copying and pasting read more

I surprised my girlfriend with a weekend getaway to Monterey to see the Rebels and Renegades Music Festival. I was pretty last minute getting a reservation. When I booked our room , I noticed check-in was 3:00 pm. I wanted to catch a performance at the festival at 2:45, and the last act ended at 11:00 pm. So I asked if we could check in early. The desk clerk said she couldn't guarantee early check-in , but the rooms were usually ready by two if we wanted to try. I decided I would go to the festival and if we were allowed to leave the fairgrounds and return later, we would catch the performance I wanted, go check into the Fireplace Inn, and return. I didn't want to late check-in after 11:00. At about 1:45, I got a text message from the Inn saying my room was ready and we could check in! This blew me away, in a good way. I had never heard of a hotel doing that. We left after our show, and checked in at the Inn. The desk clerk was extremely friendly and helpful. The room was really cute and clean. The location was perfect, right in the middle of town. We walked to dinner and right across the street to breakfast in the morning. We also walked from the hotel about 8 short blocks to the cove and beach. We were a little slow checking out, and again the desk clerk was very nice, and we weren't charged. I would definitely stay again. read more

Carmel Fireplace - Nice Dutch door to our room. - Hotels Near Me - Carmel-by-the-Sea, California

So checking in was an easy process. The room was actually very spacious we had two queen beds in separate rooms I appreciate that the rooms were separated by a door and each room had its own restroom but only one room had a shower which was fine! The indoor fireplace heated up the room nicely and was a great touch. Also the sofa turned into a bed so we each slept in our own bed. Very romantic setting. The parking lot is very small so there is no designated parking it's first come first serve so if your able to park your car upon arrival I suggest just leaving it parked there for the remainder of your stay. There is a refrigerator in the room but no microwave. There is a microwave in the office just incase. No coffee, tea, fruit or anything like that in the office so not super hospitable but they do have maps of Carmel. Overall the room was clean and comfortable and the fire place was a great added touch but the parking was limited and for the price being paid I feel as if each customer should have at least one designated parking space. read more

The property was close to galleries, stores, and entertainment. Each room is designed different. Our room was cute and small. The bathroom is really small and could be a little tight for some people. They have spots you can sit down outside. They have ice available if needed. The property is surrounded with beautiful plants and flowers. Loved it! They do have lack of parking for your stay so once you park you don't want to leave and lose your spot. Luckily though you can walk to the beach. It is great going down but walking back up the hill is no fun. The do offer a continental breakfast of yogurt, pastries, baffles, fresh fruit and drinks. They also have a bedroom tray that you bring back when done or you can sit in the cute little dinning area. The only thing was no A/C and not good if you are heat sensitive. It was cooler outside than in the room and was hard to cool off the room. Other than that it was great! Glad I was able to check it out! read more

We stay at the Carmel fireplace at least twice a year. The rooms are small but very clean. Great location, just a few streets up from all the action. Service is friendly and very accommodating.

I enjoyed staying at the Carmel Fireplace Inn and would definitely stay here again. The front desk staff were all very friendly, welcoming and helpful. I stayed in the Lincoln room #22 as it was one of the dog friendly rooms available. You walk along a charming little path to get to the room which shares a courtyard that features a table with an umbrella and chairs. The room was on the smaller size, but perfect for one person and two large, folding dog crates. The bathroom features a shower that's slightly dated, but worked perfectly fine. Not all of the windows opened, and it would have been nice to have more airflow, especially during the day. That being said, the room had a dutch door/ stable door that's divided horizontally in such a fashion that the bottom half may remain shut while the top half opens. Also, the windows all had venetian blinds and no curtains, so morning light can wake you. One of the best features of the hotel is the location and proximity to town, and yet it's far enough away to avoid the noise. The room was located by the car park, which means you may hear a car or two coming or going during the evening if you're a light sleeper. The inn has several parking spots that are first come, first served. There is also ample street parking along neighboring streets. Overall, I enjoyed my two night stay and would definitely stay there again. read more

Sister and I looked forward to Carmel at Xmas but didn't expect to need cancer surgery, they don't care even after jumping thru hoops to prove we weren't lying. Cancelled on Monday, date we learned of surgery, for Thursday arrival, too late. Said we would come in January after surgery, nope. Did all they asked, but manager couldn't talk to doctor tho got a note on letterhead from doc. Charged the full rate. We're seniors looking forward to Carmel, going to Green Lantern Inn tomorrow for lost trip before chemo begins. Thanks for nothing! We would be there tomorrow, but cold hearted and treated like liars. read more

No stars. They have bedbugs!!! We tried to tell them and they didn't care. Dolores cottage 1. I found a huge bedbug on my pillow as I was checking out. I then looked in the sheets and there were obvious rusty stains. We told the man upon check out and hoped for the best. I tried to disinfect and wash all my things before entering my home. But now my 20 month old daughter is being eaten alive. It is exactly perfect timing for the eggs to have hatched seeing as the bug I found here was large and the ones I found crawling in my daughter's room at small and new. We stayed on a Friday-Sunday weekend and by Tuesday my daughter had her first bite (she did not come on the trip). Now we are finding the actual bugs. It's a nightmare. Once I had proof I called and emailed the fireplace in asking for a refund and for them to treat the place for the sake of other guests. They just sent me a long email with pictures saying there is no evidence of bed bugs. They refused to refund me and they aren't going to treat the room. Now we have to pay 1800$ to have our house treated but all the hassle it involves. We have not travelled anywhere for a long time and the infestation came from the fireplace inn. I was going to hold off on reviewing to give them the benefit of the doubt when it came to handling the situation. Since they chose not to I decided it's best for me to share this review so others are aware. read more

Where do I start? 1. The desk clerk, Augustina doesn't show up to the front office till like 3pm in the afternoon? How does that make any sense. The front office is closed till then so if you show up early to check in good luck. 2. I parked my car in the back around 11am, alerted their sister property across the street I was doing that. Since , low and behold the front office is closed and I couldn't alert them. I told the sister property I have a room Fireplace inn and they said you can't check in till 3pm. They said I could leave my car there. At around 2pm, I receive a call from the Carmel Police dept that my car was slightly touching the sidewalk and if I didn't move it immediately it would be towed, so I had to rush back and move it. The moral of this was if the Fireplace Inn office was open I could of gave them my car info, license number etc and they could of called me instead of me rushing back to avoid my car getting my towed. 3. The fridge and coffee maker are located in the bathroom. The coffee maker and cups are uncovered. This is disgusting because as you know bathrooms have sometimes fecal matter that flies in the air and other germs. Another gross 4. There is NO security there. When I went to bed, some of my noisy upstair neighbors were partying till like 1am and very loud. No one to call, should I have called the police? I don't know. 5. The bed are supposed to be queens. I have a queen at home which is way bigger. These are slightly larger than a standard bed. Very uncomfortable. 6. This place has no air conditioning, it has a VERY small heater on the wall which looks like from the 60's, a hard pass. 7. The fireplace is super old. Yes it is gas but you have to light it with a match not modernized at all. 8. The room is very dated looking and it needs new look. 9. I bought this on Affirm, which allows you to make payments. When I get there the desk lady said they don't take virtual credit cards, I had to cancel my affirm order and pay with my regular credit. A huge joke. This place runs like its the 80's This place is a 1 star from me. The ONLY plus I would give it would be it is close walking distance to downtown. Pass on this place....its a joke. 308.00 a night for this dump is a ripoff. read more

Have stayed a lot of hotels in Carmel, and this has been one of my favs. When we checked in, the woman at the front desk was very helpful and answered all our questions. She even gave us a map without asking. The room was clean and comfortable. There isn't an air conditioning unit, so keep that in mind when booking a room if it's hot outside. July was the perfect temperature, so we didn't need it. Even turned on our fireplace at one point during the night. Will definitely stay here again. read more

Comfortable beds, great location, clean and very pretty grounds. Front desk was very helpful. Would definitely stay here again .

We've stayed here before so we are familiar with the motel. It is long in the tooth, but comfortable and convenient. This visit was VERY disappointing. First, there was no hot water to take a shower in the morning and no one in the office until 10 AM to help. When I asked about it that afternoon I was told I can't get hot water when the ice machine is running and that happens randomly. Great to know. We didn't get a good night's sleep because someone had their TV on too loud at 2 AM and again at 6 AM. Tried to call the office, but no one there until 10 AM. Finally, they only have 7 parking spaces for a lot more rooms so unless you are lucky enough to grab one you risk a ticket on the street from the voracious meter maids. We come to Carmel frequently, but we're going to try somewhere different next time. read more

There's always a first-time for everyone and this was my first time in beautiful Carmel and also my first time staying in a Bed & Breakfast. I had no idea a B&B can be so home-like and nice. The unit we had was like a spacious 2 bedroom / 2 bath apartment. It was very clean, had nice wooden window treatments, 2 televisions, a fireplace, and a nice view of the courtyard. In addition, this B&B is located in downtown Carmel, which is most convenient (via walking) to the local stores, galleries, restaurants and, of course, the beach. The only complaint, if I should call it that, is that this B&B still uses VHS tapes. I was shocked to see a VCR in our room but at least the movies are free, and they must be checked out from the front desk. To be honest, when you're in Carmel you really don't want to spend time in your room watching a movie because it's too nice outside. Another high note of this B&B is that they offer a very nice breakfast for free, and the staff here is very helpful and nice. So, if you want to stay in the heart of downtown Carmel, at a reasonable price, I suggest Carmel Fireplace Inn. I'll definitely keep this place in mind for my next trip to Carmel. read more

I've stayed at the Fireplace Inn going back over 30 years. Our last visit was a few months ago when my husband and I enjoyed a quiet weekend here. I agree with the other reviewers, it's a great location, parking is an issue as it always is in downtown, and some rooms need updating, but they're slowly getting around to it, room by room. Most of the staff is very helpful however, there is one short tempered woman that answers the phone. If you get her, hang up and call back later. Also, don't buy a gift certificate or make reservations as a gift for anyone here, if they have to change the date it's a HUGE hassle and they'll charge a fee to the givers card. The best thing going for this place is location. I know there a lots of places in downtown Carmel and this little spot is very convenient. read more

3.8, solid Think Melrose place (condensed and smaller) meets English cottage in this decent value close-in B&B that I patronized recently... chose the Lincoln room (only shared walls on one side, as it's at the end of the unit, and one above). Luckily, there was neither on the Thurs. that I checked in, so tranquility, calm, and the nice patio table in the courtyard by the fountain were alllLLL mine! (mu haha!) Nothing terribly fancy to speak of---there was a gas fireplace, comfortable enough bed (but would have preferred mattress firmer), smallish bathroom (clean but dated) with yucky assortment of soap/shampoo (uh, i always take that stuff home, and this time, I just left it), and very wan lighting inside. A small dorm-sized fridge in the closet. I enjoyed the location to the shops/restaurants, and the breakfast in the morning was served in its own room near front desk. Def very decent---nothing hot, save Costco-type toasted bagels and cream cheese, but no Otis Spunkmeyer stuff wrapped in plastic either.... loaf cakes, muffins, fresh fruit, fresh juices, coffee good, and the service is wonderful. I would come to stay again....just temper thy expectations, as it's more country charm than pristine, refined B&B life. Parking lot is tiny---holds 5-6 cars. First come, first served. When I slid open my bathroom window, I was staring at the right rear wheel of my Prius spaceship! =) (place located on a slight hill, so some rooms are below ground to the parking!) read more

We booked two nights here for $400 on booking.com, but beware that does not include the pet fee of $25 per dog per night, so for two dogs we paid $100 on top of the $400. Front desk is fine and accommodated us after unknowingly booking a non-pet friendly room on booking.com, but there was no way I would've known that. Unfortunately, the walls and windows are very thin and we were called for being too loud. Early in the evening, my 6 year old and two small dogs were playing and being normal, so it made us feel like we had to whisper and walk on egg shells the rest of our visit. It put a bit of a damper at the end of our stay. Positives: Location is great and room was super comfy with the gas fireplace and firm beds. Would probably stay again, only if we got a deal. read more

The woman at the front desk seemed to give more of a narrative when we checked in than being welcoming. She didn't even know she had our reservation until we got there because we made it through Expedia, which for some reason seemed to irke her. She ran my boyfriends credit card and said it didn't go through when in reality, she didn't enter the right expiration date and that's why it was declined. We stayed in a room that was right in front of the street, and while the room was cozy, there is no air conditioning and if you open the windows, you get terrible noise from the street, including a grate that bangs every time a car passes by. There's also a restaurant right across the street that has outdoor seating so you can hear the noise from there. We thought we'd be offered coffee in the morning since most places at the very least do but not here...we'll probably stay elsewhere next time. read more

I was really skeptical about this place because of all the sub-par reviews but I absolutely adored this little B&B. It is cute, quaint and charming. We stayed in the Junipero room- had a king size bed and fireplace and our room overlooked the flower-filled courtyard. The landscaping around the inn was really nice, it felt like we were in our own little cottage. When we arrived we had a bottle of wine, wine glasses, wine tasting passes, and chocolates waiting. The bathroom was small, but not a problem and everything was very clean and put together. The room was perfect for me and my boyfriend. Breakfast is from 8:00-9:30 and it's in this cute room off of the lobby. My boyfriend was still sleeping so i went over to grab a bagel or two to bring back to our room and the receptionist handed me a tray with plates and silverware to put everything on! Breakfast was the typical B&B meal, bagels, muffins, breads, fruit, juice- I really enjoyed it. The Inn is right in the heart of Carmel so we parked and never moved our car again until we left, were able to walk to everything. It was just such a pleasant experience and I can't wait to return. Definitely recommend. read more

The outside of this Inn is beautiful and matches the quaint vibe of Carmel. Everything else about this place is awful. Walking in our room the carpet smelled musty and the walls were damp. Low ceilings and a shower that made me feel dirtier getting out of it then I did going in. $300 a night is way too much, and the photos they have online are misleading. At half the price I would have been okay with a place as bare bones as this. But for $617 for two nights, I expected a nicer stay. The front desk/ breakfast area is tiny and dingy. Honestly, as soon as we got there I wanted to leave. The cherry on top of the nonsense was the Inn adding on a additional charge for having a 3rd person in the room, which we did not find out about until after we left. Carmel is a lovely town, I'll be back. However, I will not be staying here. At a lower price point I'd be willing to put up with some of this; but there are simply nicer places to stay in town for cheaper. read more
