We were pleasantly surprised at the quality of the rooms at the Victorian Inn. Don't be put off by the Best Western brand - this is a good quality hotel with spacious and recently renovated rooms. The bathrooms are a little bit old, but otherwise it's all very nice. The location is close to Cannery Row and quiet. Staff of... More

This hotel is in a great location and the rooms are beautiful. It is also within walking distance of the aquarium and Cannery Row. However, the walls are VERY thin and it is loud; you can hear everything your neighbors are doing on either side of you (and above you if you are on the bottom floor), and you can... More

My wife booked 2 nights here because it was close to Cannery Row and within walking distance to Monterey Bay Aquarium. Our room was clean and the one thing we both liked was the room had a very comfortable mattress. The hotel grounds were clean and maintained but the hallway on the 2nd floor could use a new paint color... More

When we checked into our room, the local TV station reception was terrible. The man the front deck sent up to repair the TV was Tim. He was very professional and personable. When the reception could not be improved, the front desk moved us to another room. We want to commend Tim for really trying to help us. Very impressed... More

Excellent hotel! Designed with very high quality. My wife and I spent one night as part of our honeymoon and this hotel is one of the most pleasantly memorable. We got a spacious room with a small balcony. The room was clean and tidy. Every day there are evening wine and cheese at 4:00 in the afternoon. It is close... More

I stayed one night here for work last month. I picked the hotel because of price and brand name. Knowing that you will be a good night sleep and be close my work was the main reason I picked the Best Western. I was able to check in early. The room was very nice, the fireplace was a nice touch...

This is just a average hotel. The rooms are large, but nothing special. And no where did it show that there is no air conditioner! Now that being said, I will say that it's close to things like cannery row, and the 17 mile drive, and the staff way very good. But, like everywhere in Monterey, They charge for parking... More

We returned to the Victorian Inn after being here 25 years ago, and it was still very nice. Check-in was quick and easy, and our room was spacious. The decor in the bathroom is getting quite dated--I think it was the same as our last stay. The hotel is very confusing with separate wings going outside to the various rooms,... More

The Victorian Inn was just OK- barely. The room was large and recently redone- in a not very attractive fashion. Upon check in I noticed a musty smell and asked the (very unhelpful) lady at check in about this. She said that they could move us to the first floor, but that all of the rooms were exactly the same.... More
