Distance from Monterey Bay Aquarium: 4-minute drive, 21-minute walk

Located in a walkable neighborhood, across the street from a park and public library, the Kimpton Mirador Pacific Grove’s Spanish Revival–inspired architecture sets the tone for the residential-like comfort waiting inside. A new-build hotel just a half-mile from the beach, it offers 99 spacious rooms with high ceilings, local art, and, in true Kimpton fashion, yoga mats. Some rooms feature views of Monterey Bay; others have balconies and fireplaces. Pet-friendly suites welcome all pets, not just dogs, and there’s no extra charge, regardless of size, weight, or breed. Daily on-site wellness programming includes yoga practices, sound baths, and fitness classes, so combined with the spacious 24/7 gym, all your workout needs should be covered. On-site restaurant The Caledonian serves breakfast, dinner, and brunch on select days. Don’t miss the kitchen’s berry jam–stuffed spin on French toast.
