Hotel Carmel is the current incarnation of the Dolphin Inn and its convenient location gives guests easy access to galleries, restaurants, and shops.
The hotel is fully-refurbished with traditional cottage-style architecture mixed with the feel of a seaside property. The 30 rooms and suites have been redesigned. Expect USB charging ports, STAYCAST media streaming, flat-screen TVs with cable, high-speed Wi-Fi, cotton robes, hair dryers, bright and modern bathrooms, ultra-plush platform beds, high-thread-count linens, and pillowtop mattresses. 14 of the rooms have fireplaces or you can choose one with a private balcony. Suites are also available with extra space in a living room with a wet bar or dining area and fireplace. Accessible accommodations are also available.
The garden courtyard is warm and inviting, perfect for enjoying the gorgeous weather. The courtyard fire pit is ideal for socializing or just relaxing. Start the day off with breakfast in the Lobby with fresh bagels, house-made cream cheese, hot tea, orange juice, and fresh brewed coffee. Visit Brophy’s Tavern for pub fare, drinks, and large-screen TVs. Head to the Lobby in the evening for the complimentary Wine Hour.
