Green Gables Inn, A Four Sisters Inn

The Green Gables Inn is one of our new favorite places in Pacific Grove, and the area in general. We will definitely stay at GGI in the future!

This our second time staying here and the first since the renovation of the inn. So let's get started. We stayed in the Sandpiper again. This is listed as an ADA room. It is to an extent. The room is nice the renovations are nice. The bed is lower and the pillows and mattress are very comfortable. The bathroom did not get an upgrade. It still has the tall jet tub that may not work for some who have step up issues. There are hand rails for sitting and turning into the bath. Most rooms I have seen that have gone ADA have gone to walk in showers with a seat and some with assists. My daughter stayed in the room next to this one and it did have a walk in shower. Room amenities were nice as well. The fireplace and thermostat heat were nice. For ADA, there is still no access to the main house via ramp so mobility is needed. This is too bad as the views from the dining room are beautiful. Breakfast. Breakfast was wonderful every day and changed. From Mexican eggs and potatoes, to quiche and pancakes. Oatmeal, granola, baked breads, sourdough toast, wheat toast muffins, cereal, bagels, oat milk, milk, tea, just a bunch of yummy. If you have dietary restrictions like my wife, no worries, just talk to the staff. They made egg white scrambles for my wife. In the evening, the wine and cheese with salami and crackers was nice. If you are not a wine drinker, there are mineral waters, coke, and diet coke. These are also available all day. Staff. Amy, Lis, Carla, Lia are wonderful. Nearby activities: Cannery row, The Monterey Bay Aquarium within walking distance. Fishermans Wharf. The Customs House. Old Monterey. Pacific Grove, Pacific Grove History Museum. Safety: Very safe. Very touristy. Walkability: Easy walks to Cannery Row, the Monterey Bay Aquarium. Fisherman's Wharf and old Monterey. To Pacific Grove and Lighthouse point.

My husband and I spent two nights here. The property has been recently renovated and everything is beautiful. The common areas and breakfast room overlooking the ocean are stunning. We watched otters play and dolphins swim by at breakfast and happy hour. The wine and cheese was great, and so was the breakfast. We stayed in the balcony room which has amazing ocean views. We slept with the windows open listening to the ocean. My only complaint is that the private bathroom for this room is across a shared hallway which is pretty inconvenient and awkward.

We have stayed before. It was disappointing this time. Rooms: the bed was old, lumpy and hard compared to our last visit. The window frame was off the hinge and the heating inadequate. the decor was updated to modern, there should be antique style furniture to compliment the Victorian feel. it was ugly. Food & drinks: very disappointing. the quality and quantity has declined. the wine hour had a sad looking cheeseboard and breakfast had greasy dripping potatoes, cold coffee in a carafe, dried out breads and little selection. Noteworthy details: The dining area remodel was cramped, ugly and cold. Oversized chairs were comfortable but took up so much room you could barely get around if anyone was sitting in them. The modern decor Everywhere did not compliment the beauty of the architecture of such an historical house. Sad.

We had a relaxing extended weekend here, during the off-season, which was wonderful. Very quiet since it was not summer (our preference). Breakfast was great (Richard, one of the chefs, kindly accommodated an allergy for our party). Location is right in front of coastal bike/walk path, which was amazing to enjoy as there is no gym on-site. Our party had one couple in the carriage house and another in the main house. We would recommend the main house (Jennifer Room) over the back house (Carriage House), though there are pros/cons for each of the spaces. Bikes available for residents, which is a nice touch. Enjoyed the living space which faces the ocean great views all around. Would stay here again, in the main house. Rooms: Our party had one couple in the carriage house and another in the main house. We would recommend the main house (Jennifer Room) over the back house (Carriage House), though there are pros/cons for each of the spaces. Beds are softer in main house. Environment is quieter in back house. Noteworthy details: I would not bring children here.
