Carmel Green Lantern Inn

This is my 2nd year in a row staying here and I love it!! The rooms are so cute and unique. The staff is kind. The area is well kept. And it’s within walking distance from the main shopping in Carmel.

Very confortable and very close to the commercial zone (shop and restaurants)

We really like this place! Our second time already, it's peaceful and cozy.

Pleasant old school charm. Wooden structure built in 1927 with perfect location. Well maintained but dated charm. Limited parking. Easy walk to the beach and downtown. I would stay there again.

Sanitary conditions are good. The location is great, too. But the room was too small, unventilated, and not very soundproof. If the window is opened, people outside can see into the room clearly. There are no curtains. We even heard the people next room snoring at night.

Extremely close to restaurants and shops. The beach is just a few blocks away as well!!!! Staff could not have been better!

The location is wonderful, easy walk to the beach as well as shopping and restaurants in town. The Inn is just okay. The staff was friendly, but the rooms were in need of renovations. The carpet is old and looks dirty, I wore my flip flops. The room I stayed in had neighbors above and next door, and I could hear everything. The floors are creaky so every step woke me up when my neighbors were walking around when I was sleeping. I could hear them talking, using the bathroom, you get the picture. The bed was comfortable and there was a large TV. Speaking of beds, we had reserved a room with 2 beds. What we got was a Queen bed and a couch, not great. I was woken up the 2nd night by a terrible noise of animals fighting. I opened the shutters and saw several raccoons a few feet from my window. That is when I realized that my window was actually wide open and had been since I arrived the day before. I didn’t realize it because the wood shutters were closed, however they did not lock. Anyone, animal or person, could have simply pushed on the wood shutters and they swing wide open. My belonging were never secure when I was out of my room, and neither was I when I was sleeping the night before. I brought all of this to the attention of the manager when I left the next morning. They were sympathetic and apologized for the security issue. However, I was not offered a thing. Consider the extremely high price I paid to stay there for 2 nights it was disappointing.
