Property's Favourite Review
Because of its fabulous location in Carmel By the Sea, outstanding accommodations and the best staff anywhere, with Lucille, Gene and Nicole, we now go there twice a year! By being in the heart of Carmel, they are minutes from great restaurants and galleries, our favorite places!

Gorgeous inn. Quiet and the staff is so wonderfully friendly. Only thing I would recommend is that the trees be trimmed a tad off room 103. Could barely see the ocean view. But other than that… it was perfection! Also loved how close it was to il fornaio and the little pet boutique on the corner!

Office closed upon arrival at 5 pm. Went across the street to sister hotel to retrieve our key. Bellman helped with luggage to our room and provided no information (like how to turn on the heat). The room was 60 degrees upon arrival and the bathroom floor was 65 with no way to change the setting in the bathroom (toilets do not flush by the way). The flower bed on our balcony was filled with overgrown weeds. Breakfast coupons covered $10 x 2 for a $50 breakfast of oatmeal; juice and an omelette. After staying at their beautiful sister hotel in Santa Barbara (Santa Barbara Inn) the night before I was quite underwhelmed and would not recommend this hotel to anyone.

One of the best groups of reception staff (talked to three) I have had at a hotel, made us feel very welcome (we had arrived early and only expected to be able to leave the car). Hotel starting to feel frayed around the edges (hole in the bath panel, TV in the bathroom hanging just, various lights not working, one chair outside (for a double bedroom....) However, location is perfect and fire pit great to sit around on a cool evening

Our first time to experience Carmel and could not have chosen a better place to stay ! It is adorable, and roomy , staff was so friendly. Brandy to taste in lobby upon check in, parking under the facility, walking distance to everything! The bathroom was unbelievable with heated ceramic flooring. We had a room with sea view and the sound of crashing waves from balcony was amazing! Highly recommend the Tally Ho!

Tally Ho is located at the end of main shopping/restaurant strip and close the beach. We stayed in RM 109 which has a big window and private balcony with lounge chairs. They also have private parking area. The room was super spacious with older style furniture. Two minor complaints: Our room had somewhat of a musty smell since it didn’t have AC. Wasn’t a deal breaker, though. Also, RM 109 was off the street where you heard the garbage truck every morning around 6:30 am… wasn’t an issue since the time zone we came from was three hours ahead anyway. Request a room away from the road if this could be an issue for your party. Overall, we enjoyed our two night stay. Staff was super pleasant, walking distance to everything, and parking was underground which made access to the car simple. We would stay there again.…

I had not only seen good reviews of Tally Ho, I also saw the room with the best ocean view was rm 107. The room was well appointed, offered a great patio and yes, a great ocean view. Staff was very friendly. Town is steps away. Hoping to visit 107 again in the future.

Great location, but not a true bed and breakfast. No coffee until 8am. On our second night, the lobby was closed at 4:00pm, so no coffee, tee, or services then either. Even though we received two $10 coupons for breakfast nearby, we still spent $30 for breakfast. Disappointed.

First of all, the Tally Ho is such a warm, lovely boutique hotel offering rooms with with ocean views and large, beautifully appointed rooms. The staff is the best. Gene, who has been there for 17 years plus and Lucille, who has been there even more years make anything you are hoping for come true. I love this charming place and the can do attitude we encounter each time we visit. It makes the Carmel experience a must for returning.
