Great location and access to downtown Carmel. We parked the car at the hotel and just walked the whole weekend. They have complimentary car charging as well so that was nice. Hotel room accomondations were great and bed was comfy. The complimentary breakfast options was really good, better than what I was expecting. Overall a great choice if you are looking for an in town accomondation.

The hotel is really nice and modern renovated. However, the room doors are not insulated, the cold wind enters through the door side cracks and freezes the room, even if you have the heat on. An important matter they shouldn’t overlook. The breakfast is great, the idea of breakfast tapas quite original and innovative. The wood oven pizza is delicious.

Our stay was wonderful! My fiancé and I wanted a cozy getaway to check out beautiful Carmel and our expectations were exceeded with our stay at Stilwell. We were welcomed with champagne upon checking in. The property is clean with a lovely indoor and outdoor lounging and tables for dining. Complimentary and delicious breakfast every morning. The location is right near the shops, restaurants, and cafes. Staff is friendly and inviting. Definitely would recommend and would stay here again! Thank you Stilwell for your hospitality!

The hotel is at a very central and convenient location. Plenty of off street parking and 2 free EV charging spots. The room we had was nice and bathroom was well stocked with amenities. The shower was a good size with good water pressure. The breakfast was a highlight of the hotel, with imagination not just the same old boring food. Everyday the food was different. They were very tasty and beautiful too. I highly recommend the Stilwell to anyone who wants to visit Carmel!
