The design of the hotel is very good. I like the retro American style very much. The breakfast is also very surprising. I will stay here again.

La Playa hotel is a unique blend of a cozy B&B and a hotel. The rooms are well appointed, the breakfast is exceptional and the staff is very friendly and gracious. The hotel is walking distance to the beach, Carmel shops and restaurants. I highly recommend La Playa Hotel. Can’t wait to go again.

We stay here rather consistently and it is consistently good. If there ever is an issue, it is addressed right away -- and to our advantage! The food at Bud's we find excellent. This will continue to be our destination of choice.

What a wonderful treat! Gorgeous hotel — a step into the past with every modern convenience one could wish for. Great daily champagne breakfast and yummy Ghirardelli Chocolate Chip Cookies every evening. The staff was wonderful, providing a dining shuttle into the main part of town every night so we didn’t have to use our car. Can’t wait to come back!

This is a beautiful property. The rooms are small--at least the room we had. The bedding is great. The property and location are wonderful. Beautiful breakfast buffet. Would definitely stay again.

Rooms are small, Wi-Fi in room not available the first day and a half. Service is great and attentive. The breakfast is very good. Located closer to beach than main part of town. Restaurants are all walkable but up a steep incline for 3-4 blocks. There is no elevator.

We like staying here very much, the only issue was the smell of mildew in our bathroom, this was the only reason for four stars rather than five

LaPlaya Hotel is wonderful. Beautiful grounds, friendly and helpful staff. Fantastic breakfast including made to order omelets and waffles. Bar onsite and a fabulous view on the terrace. This is an absolutely lovely place. Excellent location...Close to the beach and close to downtown. Complimentary shuttle service and fresh baked chocolate chip cookies in the evening. I think I found my favorite place to stay in lovely Carmel.
