Clean and well maintained! The pillows are soft and the bed is nice and firm. Coffee machine and fridge in room also. Few parking spaces in the center but plenty of street parking although we stayed in the middle of the week. This property is centrally located in between shopping and the beach. Carmel has a very beautiful & clean beach. The sand is white and powdery. Shopping and dining is plentiful in this area also. The hotel itself is clean and updated, and the staff are very kind and helpful. Cecile and Jane at the front desk are very welcoming. The breakfast is a bonus, simple but complete. They have toast, pastries, cereal, oatmeal, yogurt, hard boiled eggs, oj, coffee, tea and hot cocoa. The dining room is small but very efficient, a staff is there to help out and make sure everything is clean and orderly. I will surely stay here again when I’m visiting. Thank you so much Normandy Inn!

We’ve stayed here several times in the past few months as we are renovating a house. It’s always clean, the bed is comfortable, and the bathroom has been updated and is a decent size. We appreciate the breakfast on busy mornings. The location is excellent. I know parking can be an issue for some people, but it’s never been an issue for us. If the lot is full, there’s plenty of parking on the street.

The front desk staff was phenomenal- very welcoming and they helped me make my trip changes in a way that truly worked for me. They definitely put the customer experience first. Great job to the team - including those who helped out in the Dining area (Daniela!). Grateful for my time there. Thank you for a restorative stay!
