Pleasant Stay & Beautiful Sunset

Very comfortable bed, room was clean, and property was quiet. Check-in was easy, and they even had complimentary baked goods & coffee! Front desk clerk was super helpful, and walked us to our room, which she graciously changed at check-in for a larger bed.
Christina, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Very close to everything downtown Carmel. We parked our car at the Inn and didn't use it the rest of the weekend.

10/10 Exceptional

Hotel is quaint and lovely. Short walk to the heart of Carmel, with good restaurants and beautiful shops. Fun to just walk around, and the beach is just a few blocks from the hotel.
Susan, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

Disappointment

Tiny, uncomfortable room with low ceilings. Uncomfortable pillows and not enough bedding for the cold temps. Very limited parking. Very loud neighbors. No daily cleaning service. Glitchy night stand lamps that turned on in in the middle of the night for no reason. No coffee or tea service in room.

This place was amazing! So cute and a quick walk to the ocean. The staff was amazing as well and very welcoming!! We would definitely stay here again!!

An Easy Choice

Staying at the Green Lantern was easy and comfortable. The parking in the front and on the side street were just steps away from our room. Plenty of windows and natural light in the Pine Room. Three different locks on the door gave me peace of mind since the door was close to the street. The hotel is quaint, you aren’t getting a resort experience or top tier accommodations, but we were completely satisfied with our room for our short stay!

This is a beautiful property, however the rooms deserately need a refresh.
Sabine, 4-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Friendly and attentive staffs. They only offer coffee, no breakfast. You will have to walk out of your room to use the microwave. They have a very cute outdoor patio which I enjoyed so much for the little fresh air in the morning. It’s a convenient location that is just only a few minutes driving from Carmel downtown. My room was pretty small, lights are dim. Parking is limited space but you can park on the street. Other than that, I have a good time here.

Cute little spot for a decent enough price considering all the fancy shopping and dining within just a few walkable blocks. Parking can be hit or miss though. We almost had to park on the street then got lucky last minute in an onsite parking spot.
