We loved our stay here -in the middle of Carmel and great service. The extra touches are so worth the few extra $ to stay here. I particularly loved how they take care of your car and then when you leave, there is bath tea left as a gift in the car. Nice touch.

You will not appreciate this hotel unless you stay for several days. Great location and attentive service will be more apreciated with each night.

Although the weather in Carmel was not up to "vacation standards," (i.e. raining and cold), we loved the Auberge enough to ignore it. Lovely courtyard, cosy room, kind and attentive service (George at front desk even offered to mail a package for us!) and delicious breakfasts all combined to make our stay memorable. Can't wait to go back!

First visit to Carmel and wanted a first rate hotel within walking distance of restaurants and the ocean. The L Auberge was in a perfect location and exceeded our expectation in every way. We wished we would have stayed longer and will be back.

I loved this hotel. It had to be one of the most welcoming hotels ever. The entire staff went out of their way to make sure that everything was just right for us. When we checked in they gave us a "home-made" lemonade drink. We had caramels, nuts, and bottled water in our room. Every night, when the bed was turned down, we found a plate of fresh, home-made  cookies for our enjoyment (each day was different). Any request was cheerfully dealt with from a dinner reservation to tee times for the Pebble Beach golf tournament. It is within a short walking distance to most of the shops and restaurants that Carmel has to offer, as well as to the water. If you ever find yourself in this neck of the woods, do yourself a favor and stay at the L'Auberge Carmel. We even found a little gift when the valet brought our car the day we left.

the hotel reflects it's price. everything was perfect from the warm apple cider upon check in to the attentive staff. the restaurant is pricey, but worth every penny for a special occasion.

One bad thing: the shower nozzle, overhead. That said, the staff was wonderful and knowledgeable, the location was great - two blocks from the main drag (Ocean) and a short walk to the beach. The bldg. is from 1929, with thick walls and wood beams. Free valet parking and a daily charge for tips, instead of individual tips. There's a beautiful courtyard,  with heaters yet and the whole place is welcoming and well-designed. There are stairs to climb - no elevators. Cookies left in the rooms while you're out (or in) eating dinner. Linen mats and slippers by the bed. Very, very nice.

What an awesome place! Like being in Europe with its brick courtyard and beautiful building.

Very good service but the room was not very good especially taking into consideration the fact that this hotel is part of "Relais Chateaux"...

I can't say enough positive things about this hotel and our experience there. My husband and I stayed for three nights (wish we had planned to stay longer!) and every staff member was literally at our service our entire stay. I've stayed at Westins, Marriotts, Hiltons, Ritz Carltons, Kimpton Hotels, etc., and this by far was a step WAY above the rest  in the quality of service we received. The staff were extremely friendly and helpful - when we checked in, the woman at the concierge/reception area called for a valet to retrieve our bags. He brought all of our bags up to our room and showed us the different features of the room (we had really heavy bags, and several of them, as this was just one stop we made on our CA vacation). The woman who checked us in also suggested we purchase a bottle of wine to bring down to the beach (walking distance) and drink as we watched the sunset. We took her advice and it was just stunning. When we got in that evening, we were tired, and started looking at their book of local restaurant menus. The staff member who was there offered to order take-out for us and bring it up to the room. We loved the idea. We just expected to get the bags of takeout (which would have been fine!), but they took it another step further and paid for the food in cash when it arrived (and charged the amount to our room), and then plated each of the dishes and presented it to us beautifully in our room. They offered to set up a table in our room to eat at, but we opted for the food on trays on our bed. The next afternoon, we took a bottle of wine out to the patio area. Another staff member was walking by and noticed our wine, and brought over an ice bucket so it would stay cold. I could go on and on about the service - all great things. But on top of that, this is easily one of the most beautiful inns around (certainly the most beautiful I've stayed at). It is French Country style, very peaceful and intimate, and a must-see. We also ate at their restaurant one
