    Deer within a few hundred  feet of the Inn.

    I have been meaning to write a view of Sunset Inn since our stay in July and am finally getting to it. This place is an excellent value. The location is excellent - the ocean is a 5 minute walk away and the Lighthouse commercial district is only a 20 minute walk. The premises have been upgraded and are well maintained. The managmement is friendly and very responsive. In my opinion, possibly the best value in Pacific Grove.

    Bathroom with adjustable warmth over sink lighting.

    This is a quaint spot about a block away from the beach. We stay in Pacific Grove often, and have stayed in many places - this was our first time here. We were a bit early for check in, but the gentleman at the front desk was so kind and hospitable. He offered us coffee and drinks in the lobby while we checked in. I asked if the tea was also available and he said "of course, while you're here, this place is your home - anything you need or want is yours". We got to our room and it was very spacious and looked to have been recently updated. The bathroom was small, but it was nicely done and well appointed with all the essentials. The shower features a rainfall and handheld shower head. Both were excellent and the water pressure was great. The bed was a little bit firm for me, but I really had no issues sleeping on it. I was worried about noise as we were in room 108 and had neighbors next door. The doors are a little awkwardly placed into the rooms so if both rooms opened the door at the same time, we would literally run into each other. However, there were no issues with noise. Maybe we got lucky and had quiet neighbors but we had no complaints with noise. Overall, hubby said he really enjoyed this place and would be happy to stay again. The price was also great for the area. My ONLY minor complaint is the parking can be quite tight. I'd return.

    My grandmother and I drove up for her brother's celebration of life this weekend. My grandmother's family lives in Pacific Grove for over 30 years so they booked us this hotel room. I'm pretty picky when it comes to hotels and I usually don't enjoy staying in them however, I'll be honest I really enjoyed this place. My grandmother is also 84 years old and so she needs to have a place with no stairs and this was really convenient for her to be able to walk up one small step. I thought they were so cute, they had little patio seating in front of each room. The room inside was really nice includes an electric fire place, a fridge and a Keurig. Usually hotel rooms have horrible shower supplies however, I thoroughly enjoyed the shampoo conditioner and the body wash they provided. The lobby is little and small but it's cute. There's a few breakfast items, some juice and some tea. He also has some maps and brochures of the surrounding areas of restaurants and places to check out if you're not from the area. I woke up early in the morning to take a walk to find the ocean. You can hear it from the hotel. Leaving the hotel if you make a right and walk down just a few feet the first turn on the left takes you straight down to the ocean, which only took about five minutes to walk. There's wildlife everywhere and the deer's are out in the open which I really enjoyed. The owner was gracious and kind, probably the best customer service I've ever received, he even left my grandmother and I a bottle of wine in our hotel. I honestly would stay here every time. I really enjoyed myself and had a wonderful experience. here are just some photos of the hotel and the walk to the ocean.

    Nice fireplace and room was very clean!!!

    1st of all....we haven't even left yet and I'm already thinking of calling my boss - cough cough The staff was super appreciative, warm welcoming, and very sincere giving great advice with local restaurants and outside vendors. The room was better than expected and when the wife loves...it's a 5 stars!! This is now our new spot to visit escaping the IE smog and heat! Most things are within 10 minutes of travel time but you can venture North or South with ease. Also easy access to the beach within walking distsnce

I made reservations to…read morestay at the Seven Gables, it's been years that I've passed by thinking "that looks like a cool place to stay". So with Valentines in mind...check in at 4 but they sent a text saying our room was ready at 11 or so and asked what time might we expect you? My timing was four and that's about when we arrived. It's a bit complicated but the signage was clear and there were a couple of parking spaces right by the check in office. Wow what a place Old Victorian and absolutely beautiful inside. Check in was easy and fun, we could keep our car where it was parked. There were small socializing events, a champagne pour at 5, cookies at 7...Our room was just off the parking area with no stairs to climb. We were also close to the breakfast spot. (starts at 8-10) Our room was well a large bedroom, tall queen size bed, a very large bathroom, with a Great shower (water pressure) and rainfall shower head. Three large windows gave us a good view of the bay, the window shades were thick enough to block out most of the light. The mattress was super comfortable, we slept well. We took an Uber to the old pier and had dinner, it was very quiet in town, perfect. Free breakfast always has me wondering but today this was a very nice breakfast, egg soufflé, hash browns, lots of real fresh fruit, croissants, various breads, oatmeal, various topping and cereal. Hit flavorful coffee, juices, yogurts...good stuff. The stay was pricy for the off season but sometimes ya gotta spend a few bucks too enjoy the finer things in life. Today we're headed up highway One to Capitola and over to San Jose to Santana Row for dinner with the kids, stay tuned. Foodguy-Martin

I find that service is usually at its best during those times and this was no exception. The staff was great and so was the property, including its proximity to the water, shopping and dining. I love staying at older hotels and inns because the properties are usually small and quaint, with so much charm and character. I like the limited number of rooms because each is different and unique, providing the opportunity for a one of a kind experience each time you visit.

It felt like we were inconveniencing her by having the audacity to check into our room. The room was small but that's fine, it's to be expected. Note that the walls are THIN AS CAN BE. I could hear the room next to us flush their toilet. I wish I was joking. The worst part was the shower head. The first day it was spraying a bit to the sides and got the bathroom floor a little wet. The second day all hell broke loose and the entire bathroom was soaked after a 5 minute shower. I had to wipe down the counter, the toilet, and the sink from all the shower water. I've never experienced anything like it. The "continental breakfast" is pathetic. Cold and tiny pastries and blueberry bagels. So expect to eat elsewhere for breakfast. I recommend Winston's around the corner (it's outstanding). The lady at the front desk the day we checked out and that I reported the shower leak to was very hospitable. To be honest, she was the only positive part of this entire experience. I'm just so disappointed in this place. I was really looking forward to our stay but it fell short in every way plus some. For around $200 a night during off season on a week day GO ELSEWHERE TRUST ME.

We enjoyed being able to walk everywhere and we loved the historical aspect of the Inn. There is a small parking lot on the property, but we chose to park on the street (it's free) because there was a space right in front of our cottage door. The staff is very friendly. The star was lost because of the poor breakfast. Cold bagels, no butter, tiny, tasteless cold pastries. Sad because the little breakfast room with its cozy seating is very inviting.

They've done a great job of keeping the character of the house but also modernizing it. All of the staff were friendly and helpful. Leese was at the front desk for most our stay and she was very kind and helpful. Housekeeping and the cooking staff do a great job as well. We had breakfast every morning and it was hot, fresh and provided variety each day. We stayed in Room 21, La Porte. It included a private side entrance outside the main house which was great. I think our room location was a little noisier than other rooms due to the entrance area outside the room being used by staff and some other guests. This wasn't a bad thing for us but something to note for those looking for quiet. We'll definitely come back to Pacific Grove and the Gosby will definitely be a consideration for lodging.

The room had a nice jacuzzi bathtub which we both enjoyed. The bed was big and comfortable. There was a cool antique wardrobe in the room which we used to store our clothes. The only downside was that it got a little cool in our room at times (it would be fine in the summer probably but this was in mid February). I put 2 extra blankets on top and we turned on both heaters, the one in the bathroom and the one in our room. Once the heaters had been on for a while it got quite warm and cozy. I would recommend they purchase a nice big down comforter for the room because then we would not need to use as much heat. There was an imitation down comforter but those are not as warm. The service was excellent and everyone was very friendly and nice and helpful. The inn was very clean. The food was excellent. I ate way too many calories for the breakfast but it was so delicious. I didn't gain weight on this trip though, maybe because of all the walking I did, Pacific Grove is an adorable little town and the Lovers Point walking trail is delightful. Make sure to admire the cute houses in the town. So many fun little details. There is a combo bookstore/coffee shop next door to the Gosby House and it was so nice to head over there one morning and get a cappuccino and chat with the other people in the cafe. We also went to the aquarium which is close by and to the Sardine Factory restaurant, which is very nice. One of the perks of staying at the Gosby House is their fresh baked cookies and wine hour. We don't drink alcohol but the fresh baked cookies were delicious, we definitely enjoyed! My favorite was the chocolate/chocolate. Yum. I would definitely return to the Gosby House or back to another 4 sisters inn. I got a really good impression. We also went to the Pacific Thai restaurant which is about 1 block away from the Gosby House. That was great too and I had a good artichoke soup. Parking was quite easy for the Gosby House. They don't have their own lot but it was easy to find parking very close. Check in time was 4pm I think but we got there a little early and our room was ready. The other guests were peaceful and nice and clearly having a good time. The inn was mostly quiet and peaceful. It was quiet at night. I would highly recommend this Inn. Overall it was a very good experience.
