Cypress Inn

Great vibe, great location, worked great for our large group. Bar downstairs was great place to meet at night after our activities.

We enjoyed our two night stay at the Cypress Inn in Carmel by the Sea. Lots of positives to mention. Our corner room on the second floor was nice and had a fireplace (July) . They kept a bowl of fruit and snacks full and also a bottle of water. They provide a bottle of sherry for your enjoyment too. We ate once at their restaurant and it was good. We had breakfast each morning (included) and it was very good. The staff were always friendly and helpful. They have a fair amount of free entertainment and we enjoyed this in their parlor one evening. The location is great and we ate once a 7th and Delores a short walk from the hotel. The hotel is pet friendly and there were a lot of pets. The downside for the hotel is that they have no parking. So you have to park at least two blocks away to get out of the two hour city parking zone and in our case that was never less than four blocks. They have an elevator but there are a few steps after that to get to the actual level of your room (at least in our case). The positives outweigh the negatives and we would recommend the hotel.

I have stayed at the Cypress for years, and this time didn't disappoint. Wonderful ambiance, fabulous food, and the doggies are always so much fun.

Incredible location...incredible live music...incredible food...and I love that the Owner (Denny) still honors Doris Day by playing Doris Day movies all day in the restaurant! Sooo Cool! Love all the movie memorabilia and his collection of cool toys! (no other hotel in the world has any of this!) Love the Cream Sherry they give you in the rooms and you can go to the Bar and get a soft drink, juice or coffee for free anytime! Dogs, dogs and more dogs...which I love and was never an issue! (which I thought it might be) Booked my room for next year again!

I took my mom to Carmel to celebrate her birthday and was so glad we picked Cypress Inn. The location was fantastic - every restaurant and shop we went to was in walking distance. We stayed in a suite, which had a lovely sitting area with fireplace for cooler nights. I thought we'd hear a lot more noise given that it's a pet friendly hotel, but we always got a good night's sleep. The staff were very friendly and helpful, the food was good (including the complimentary breakfast) and the whole place is just very charming. Would visit again.
