Hofsas House Hotel - A Bavarian-inspired boutique hotel with heated pool, ocean views, and European hospitality in Carmel-by-the-Sea
Located three blocks north of Ocean Avenue, this family-owned Carmel-by-the-Sea hotel features 37 individually decorated rooms. The three-star Hofsas House combines traditional European elements with modern amenities, including a year-round heated swimming pool and dry saunas. Guest rooms offer Dutch doors, HD cable TV, and free WiFi, while selected accommodations include fireplaces, private balconies, wet bars, or full kitchens. A complimentary continental breakfast serves French pastries, yogurt, and locally-roasted coffee from 8-10 AM daily. The property provides spacious two-room family suites with dual bathrooms, accommodating up to six guests. Pet-friendly rooms are available for travelers with dogs. The hotel sits eight blocks from Carmel Beach and one block from a city park, while Monterey Peninsula attractions like Point Lobos State Park and Pebble Beach are within 3 miles.
Pros
Ample off-street parking allows guests to explore the village on foot
Continental breakfast features fresh local pastries and Carmel Valley Roasting coffee
Distinctive Bavarian-themed murals and artwork throughout the property
Cons
14-mile distance from Monterey Airport
Some rooms require street parking
“Hofsas House feels like a comfortable, long-established family home, full of character and warmth, and that's a refreshing change from the predictable chain hotels; the Bavarian-inspired design and the local art give it a distinct personality, while the thoughtful touches, like artisan chocolates, add to the welcoming atmosphere. Its location is ideal for exploring Carmel-by-the-Sea, combining convenience with a sense of peaceful retreat, especially for families and those traveling with pets, which makes it a great place to visit. I think many would enjoy its unpretentious charm.”
