Amazing Stay Amazing location. Awesome hospitality. Would definitely recommend staying here if you are in the area.

Nice Inn! Excellent experience. Very nice room, reasonable price. The room was conveniently located, clean and very pleasant. We needed something convenient, and the location in Carmel Valley was ideal. Staff were helpful but not intrusive. Room location overlooking garden and pool area was quiet and attractive.

Clean, Comfortable and Quiet. Comfortable and clean bed, bath and room. Bathroom is small. This Inn is a no frills place. It did have a refrigerator, and we wish it was listed before our trip. Nice view from the patio. Our friends in the room next to us had trouble with the heat mode in n the mini split unit. Both units seemed to be dated, but ours was fine. For 2 nights in the Carmel/Big Sur area, it was lovely. Plenty of eating options available within 20 minutes by car.

Hidden Valley...more like Hidden Gem! GREAT place to stay! Especially for the price point. It's a hidden gem. The complimentary pastries were fabulous and great touch. Great central location with wine tastings 5-10 min walk. No problem getting night time Ubers/Lyft to Carmel and back. Welcoming and friendly staff!

Hidden - but Superb Experience! Well worth the "search." Superb experience! It truly is Hidden! Once you finish the short downhill drive it is almost like entering Shangri-La! Beautiful surroundings and very nice accommodations. The landscaping has recently been upgraded and everything is beautiful and well-cared for. Staff are very pleasant and very helpful. It is definitely on my list to stay on all future trips to the Big Sur area.

Charming hotel in great location Hidden Valley Inn is a charming little hotel in great location! We will definitely stay here again on our next visit to Carmel Valley. We were attending a workshop at the Hidden Valley Music Seminar next door to the hotel. It was a 2 minute walk from our room to the meeting venue.

The hotel staff were polite and professional. The facilities/grounds were beautiful, very clean, and well maintained. The pastries in the morning were delicious! (They were fresh from a local bakery, not pre-packaged from a grocery store.) We stayed in a Garden View King room. It was spacious, clean, and comfortable, though our particular room did not have any sort of desk or a dresser. We had a 5 night stay, so it would have been nice to put away all of our clothes neatly folded. We did use drawers in the 2 nightstands for some clothing and there were several hangers in the closet for others. (This was a minor inconvenience, but not a deal breaker.)

The hotel is a short walk (1/2 mile, 15 minute walk) to Carmel Valley Village where there are several cafes/restaurants, markets/small grocery stores, and lots of wine tasting rooms. It is about 3 miles (7 minute drive) to Garland Ranch Regional Park which has several miles of really nice walking & hiking trails.
