I was lucky to find Normandy Inn during my stay in Carmel By The Sea. The room was like a Motel 6 but spacious and well-located, allowing for a good airflow through the room. The service was very efficient and apologetic about any issues that arose, creating a friendly atmosphere. The hotel's location made it easy for me to visit my local family and enjoy walking to the beach and nearby shops and restaurants. The dining experience, although not what I hoped for, was still decent, with room for improvement. Overall, the facilities were satisfactory, offering a comfortable stay.

My stay at the hotel was average overall. The room felt more like a suite with a great shower and a king bed, but the lighting in the bathroom was a bit lacking. The service was not very friendly, especially for the rooms that offered nothing. The location was excellent, right on Ocean Ave and close to the beach, ideal for exploring the area. The dining options were good but could be available earlier for early risers. Overall, it was a decent stay with some room for improvement.

The hotel is situated in a prime location convenient for exploring Carmel with easy access to shopping and the beach. The rooms, although spacious and light-filled, faced some street noise issues restricting ventilation. The service was efficient and helpful, though a past inconsistency was noted. The dining options, while handy, could benefit from more variety, especially considering surrounding choices. Overall, a good place for a stay with a few minor drawbacks to keep in mind.

Rooms

The spacious rooms with modern luxury bathrooms were bright when shutters were open, offering a glimpse of Carmel Bay through lush vegetation. Street-side location limited window opening.
Service

The hotel's spot on a shopping street in Carmel made it convenient for exploring both the town and the beach on foot, with easy access to dining and shopping options.
Dining

While the dining options were adequate, more variety would enhance the experience, especially compared to nearby choices downtown.
