This hotel is an older but quaint hotel set on a very steep slope. They have a pool and sauna. We stayed over Christmas and the host was extremely helpful with restaurant reservations. We parked the car on Friday night and walked everywhere. The beach is about a 15 minute walk; stores 5 minutes. Ask for the bridal suite. You... More

We had a great night at the Hofsas House. Four women shared a room. It was very large and had a fire place. We booked online through Booking Buddies. Received a very good price. Not a place if you can't climb stairs and walk. More

For an extra $25.00 per pet per night Fido is welcome here. The hotel is older, pink on the outside, and built on a steep hill, so room access involves stairs for many. Close to everything downtown. Take San Carlos and/or Delores Street to access the best Carmel has to offer. Shopping, Food, Drink. Hotel parking is free, but the... More

I consider several factors in choosing a hotel, then rating it afterwards. I also try and get hotels that have character or a feel for where we are, or the type of trip I am on. In other words, when Prague, I don't want the Hilton. When in Carmel, I don't want a motel 6. Reviews by others are very... More

The Hofsas House may not be the most luxurious hotel in Carmel, but it’s affordable, spacious, and friendly. If you want to be within short walking distance of the town’s many fantastic shops, restaurants, and art galleries, as well as one of the most stunning beaches in the world, but don’t have a small fortune to pay for the privilege,...

This Hotel (motel???) is excellent for travelers with dogs. About 3 blocks from the Ocean Ave, the main street, it is the last motel on the street and a short walk to a nice small park that is also used as an informal dog park. I was invited to release my 2 golden retrievers so they could play with the... More

We had a great stay here with our poodles. The 2-bedroom suite was HUGE, complete with a full kitchen and dining room table. We were centrally located and could walk to downtown and the beaches. The weekend we stayed, the hotel was overrun with poodles yet we never heard barking or saw any other dog-related problems. Even if you travel... More

Just returned from a 2 night stay at the Hofsas House Hotel. Very sweet people. I loved the charm of the hotel. Felt like I was in a B&B. Room was a bit dated, but clean. Shower could have used a bit more flow, but it worked. When we arrived we were given the choice of two rooms, which was... More

We have stayed at the Hofsas House each time we have gone to Carmel and keep coming back. One trip we had a room that was just so-so, but otherwise we have loved the place because it's clean, friendly and a great location near town. The staff are very nice and helpful. We loved the little cottage room we stayed... More
