The resort and room looked better in person than it did in any of the pictures online. The only reason I didn't not give this review 5 stars is because the front desk girl could not tell us much about places to eat, see, or even where to park in Carmel. She told us she was born and raised in Carmel Valley and didn't know much about anything outside of that...we were a little disappointed!

We’ve stayed here often over the past few years, primarily due to its location directly adjacent to the extraordinary Hidden Valley Music Seminars. The Hidden Valley Inn has undergone substantial renovations of late and the property keeps getting better and better with each stay. Highly recommended!

We loved how quiet it was and the beautiful view of the hills. Morning pastries were good! The heated bathroom floors were so nice. We did not enjoy that housekeeping does not come to your room unless you request it. That was odd. The way of communicating with the front staff was through text. I found that to be very impersonal. The office staff is only there until 5 pm.

Quiet beautiful setting

Small quiet place surrounded by beauty. Room was clean and comfortable. Could have used a mirror to get dressed though. Pool looked nice but too cold to go in. Short walk to many great little restaurants. Nice pastries for morning breakfast. Great place to relax for a weekend

This was a beautiful place to stay. It had a wonderful pool right out infront of our room- didnt get in the pool but will definitely jump in next time. The carmel beach and carmel towel was only a 20 min drive away, it also had great dine in options that were walkable (5-7 mins). However, front desk staff mentioned they’d have fresh pastries out at 7 in the morning, but when we got there for 7:30 am they were still closed which was a bit of a bummer.

Hidden Gem.

I had a great experience at Hidden Valley Inn. Truly a gem and at a very affordable price. I planned a solo trip for new years & this place was perfect. The only thing the room was missing was a microwave. But the bed was comfortable and the place was clean.

Hidden Gem in Carmel Valley

We were happy to find this hidden gem in Carmel Valley. The staff was friendly and accomodating, allowing us to check in early to fit our schedule. Our room opened to a small patio that looks out to lawn and beautiful trees. 2 cornhole games were available and inside the pool area was ladderball. The grounds are beaurifully landscaped. Looking forward to a return trip.
