I recently stayed at this charming bed and breakfast and had a truly wonderful experience. The place itself is nice and quaint, with a warm, inviting atmosphere that immediately makes you feel at home. What really stood out, though, was the staff, they were incredibly attentive and friendly from the moment I arrived. It’s rare these days to find that level of genuine hospitality and personal care. Overall, it was a great stay, and I’d highly recommend it to anyone looking for a relaxing and memorable getaway. Can’t beat the stunning views.

The room was excellent. It was very clean and has a really great ocean view. Staff was friendly and helpful! Breakfast was great but it was lacking some meat on the options. Overall, wonderful stay! It was also great that they offered champagne and wine at specific times while overlooking at the beautiful views.

Beautiful Victorian property. Champagne at check in was a nice touch. There is a courtesy cocktail hour and evening cookie hour in case you needed a reason to enjoy the shared space. Room had a seating area with a panoramic view of the ocean - perfect for enjoying the sunset. Great breakfast with views and excellent location for restaurants nearby too.

Room was so beautiful and the view was stunning. I loved having the ocean breeze come into the room and the heater was perfect at night . This place was definitely worth the money, the aquarium was only a 20 minute walk and super close to downtown area too.

This has become a destination spot for us. We look forward to the wonderful views of the waves crashing on the rocks. Beautiful location and hotel. I am glad they have kept the Victorian decor. Other hotels have not, and it goes against the point of staying at a place like this.

My wife and I stayed in one of the rooms with ocean view. It was perfect. The whole experience felt more like an Airbnb / bed and breakfast guesthouse. The appliances were of high quality, and the bed was very comfortable. With the view from our room, waking up in the morning never felt so good. One of the most memorable stays in our book.

This was our 4th stay at the 7 Gables Inn and we stayed in the Rocky Shores (RKS) room located on the top floor of the Beach House building, 37 steps up from the sidewalk to our room. The RKS room provides a complete panoramic and unobstructed view of Monterey Bay and Lover's Point.
