Hidden Valley Inn

The Hidden Valley Inn is our new favorite place to stay in the Carmel area. It's tucked down the hill from Carmel Valley village in a quiet location. Our room was spacious, comfortable, clean and quiet. The bed was particularly comfy. For pet owners, the setup is perfect because the dog friendly rooms are bottom-floor with easy access to outside in the quietest part of the property (so no coming and going of cars to disturb the pup). Closet in the room was also spacious and the common areas (pool and games) looked lovely. From the inn, you are close enough to town that you could walk (though I wouldn't because of the hill and traffic).

Note: I have no connection to this place and I was not paid or given any special service for this review. This place surprised me with how nice it is. The price was incredibly good. I wanted to get away for the night and do some work away from the stress of the silicon valley. Everything is 500 or 600 bucks a night. I like bernardus but it's gone through the roof cost wise, and I'm on a budget. So I gave this place a whirl, and I'm thoroughly impressed. From the quietness of the location away from the main road and the beautiful view, The place has a lot of charm and has been recently remodeled and is well done. I mean there's some old stuff Left behind that needs work but I'm not going to pick apart something that has so much going for it. I'm going to come back to this place. But I think the price is going to go up because this place is going to get popular. It's a hidden gem and it's a hidden valley gem 😉. The pastries in the morning were awesome. Coffee's always flowing and good. The staff are wonderful, helpful, and friendly. and the housekeeping crew keeps everything spic and span. I have nothing to complain about. And Carmel valley is just the most peaceful and amazing place. It's probably my favorite place and this place takes advantage of the atmosphere and beauty of Carmel valley and accentuates it at a very good price, so I recommend it wholeheartedly.

Hidden Valley Inn is beautiful and welcoming. Our room was on the small side but comfortable, with a good mini fridge and a high-quality TV, and a table and chairs on the patio. Great pool. Great towels, and pool towels are also supplied. This place is really feel-good! Free (large) breakfast pastries! The two village restaurants we tried were good enough. Excellent location for Big Sur and Pfeiffer Beach. If we're ever in the area again, this is where we'll go for sure.

Beautiful little Inn nestled in the hills. The room was clean, quiet, and comfortable. I stayed in the king room with a garden view and had a lovely little patio to sit in the morning and drink coffee. The beds were brand new and comfortable. They provided coffee and croissants in the morning that were delicious. The front desk shared lots of things to do in the area and was very responsive. The front desk is only open until 5pm but they have a way for you to get your room key after hours if needed.

Check in was super easy, just a phone call ahead and a key was left with instructions due to my late check in time. Room was super cute, clean, great AC (important because it was very hot). Staff was AMAZING, very helpful and very nice!! Would definitely stay here again.
