In the heart of it all, Carmel Lodge is a pleasant complement to the European charm of Carmel-by-the-Sea and unique among Carmel hotels. Situated among towering Monterey pines on 5th Avenue at San Carlos and Mission Streets, the 42-room Carmel Lodge is only two blocks from famed Ocean Avenue and a relaxing stroll to Carmel Beach. Unlike a traditional hotel experience, our guest rooms exude peace and comfort while our location ideally affords access to all that's desirable for meeting attendees or family members; for those in town for business or pleasure.

Here you will discover an extensive and diverse assortment of boutiques and shops. Plus dozens of artist studios and galleries. And an eclectic collection of restaurants and taverns. Best of all, everything's climate-controlled year-round, naturally.

Carmel-by-the-Sea's location on the Monterey Peninsula provides easy access to an endless array of activities and attractions up and down the Central California Coast. Marvel at the Monterey Bay Aquarium. Golf the links at Pebble Beach. Tour a winery in Carmel Valley. Journey to breathtaking Big Sur. Whether you're making a romantic weekend getaway or taking a well-deserved vacation, this is a destination that will very likely exceed your expectations. And Carmel Lodge is in the heart of it all.

Come experience the beauty and exhilaration of Carmel-by-the-Sea, Monterey Peninsula, and California's Central Coast. And be our guest at Carmel Lodge. So much awaits for you to see and do.
