Very nice staff, great location, very clean rooms and nice common area.
PATRICIA, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The room was easy to find, clean and the staff were friendly. I loved how we had an ocean view and even though we weren’t directly on the shore, we could still hear the ocean. I like how bright and welcoming the room was. The staff were also kind.

The Green Lantern is in a quiet area of Carmel. Loved that. They are renovating and making the property fresh and updated. Our bed was very comfortable and our room was clean! Loved our stay in this peaceful, lovely inn.

it was so great
Michael, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The hotel was so cute and quaint, and we absolutely loved the Maple room! Very private and cozy... Agustina who helped get us settled was just a lovely gal, and super helpful with all the little details; we really enjoyed chatting with her! Think next time we are in that area for the night, we'd most likely just opt to stay there again, and would even book the same room! Dinner Saturday evening on the patio at Anton and Michel was also wonderful, we'd highly recommend both spots while in Carmel!

Fresh baked goods in the check in area, cute cottage look, friendly staff, close to the beach, what more could you ask for? Very happy we stayed here.
Colette, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We were delighted to stay at this hotel! It seems we received an upgrade because our room was so cozy, complete with a fireplace and a spacious bathroom. The hotel is situated in the city center, surrounded by many cafes and restaurants, and just a couple of blocks from the ocean. Despite its central location, the hotel is in a quiet area. I definitely recommend it!

Challenging

The location was very convenient, close to downtown & beach, but the parking was challenging very minimum spots at the Inn the rest available was on the street again very challenging & disappointing. The sofa bed was very uncomfortable, you could feel the springs, very disappointing. The breakfast needs improvement, they served Costco muffins & croissants (next day or two days old). For the prices they charge I thought it would be a lot more comfortable & with fresher pastries & perhaps some fruit. We won’t be staying there again.

The Carmel Green Lantern Inn is a lovely old charm cottage style inn. Paul was wonderful and very helpful. The scones at breakfast are to die for, parking was always available and our room was delightful! We will definitely visit again!

Ok place

It was convenient location- but the room was not worth the high price. Breakfast was all carbs - just croissants and danish

Extremely overpriced for a property like this. And the front desk was going to give me a room though I've booked a family suite instead
