Built in 1929, the European-style hotel is located just four blocks from famous Carmel Beach and an easy stroll to the village's numerous art galleries, shops and restaurants. Major renovations have transformed the hotel's 20 guest rooms, entrance and landscaped courtyard.
Luxuriously romantic, the hotel was created for adults to relax, rejuvenate and nurture relationships. Minimum age for guests is 18 years and older. The interior decor of guest rooms is rich and pleasing, warm jewel tones accent the quaint charm of the architecture. Individually designed guest rooms feature the finest fabrics and linens, enlarged bath areas with radiant floor heating, some with soaking tubs. It is one of the village's few full service hotels offering valet parking, room service and highly personalized guest services.
The highlight of L'Auberge Carmel is its intimate 12-table restaurant, featuring a 4500-bottle wine cellar.Executive Chef Justin Cogley’s and Executive Pastry Chef Ron Mendoza’s cooking philosophy is built first and foremost on spontaneity. With access to an array of outstanding local products as well as ingredients and artisan purveyors from around the world, Cogley and Mendoza focus on incorporating these elements into their ever-changing menus
