Such a cute, historical inn to stay! The rooms are pretty old, so factor that in, but very cute and rustic common rooms. Not much for breakfast, but there are many cute cafes nearby if you have any dietary restrictions like me. Loved exploring the inn with all the wintery lights!
This older property is located near to the main dining and shopping area of Pacific Grove. Parking can be problematic due to narrow streets and closely packed residences.
The rooms are adequately sized but due to age of building, floors and doors are a little creaky. No soundproofing of course but guests were not noisy during our visit.
No staffing after 9 p.m. until morning is unfortunate.
It is however, a slice of local history nicely preserved for this coastal town.
The staff has been very friendly and helpful. I recommend accepting the use of text messaging for communicating with hotel staff. It has proven very useful and reminded me of things I might have otherwise forgotten.
My wife and I would definitely consider returning for the hospitality we have received here.
As for the accommodations, the room (for us, it was cute cottage next to the main building) was comfortable, with and old world charm, but with all the necessary modern amenities.
In the lobby area, there is a common area with tables for dining and a big screen television surrounded by couches and comfy chairs, a coffee table and a cabinet filled with board games for a little group entertainment.
All in all, I would definitely recommend Centrella Hotel if you're looking for someplace outside of the big corporate hotel chains, or for a romantic weekend.
The property was very cute and cozy. Located walking distance to the beach. The staff was on point. The bfast needs a little improvement. Maybe more options.

So so
It was ok. Super old. Lukewarm staff. Clean for how old it was. New carpet is a 100% necessity and maybe an option other than yogurt for “breakfast” would be nice.
Staff was friendly but didn’t seem too excited to be there.
The pictures on the website are a little nicer than the actual rooms. However for the price, it was perfect for one night. The staff was friendly and check in was easy. The breakfast in the morning could have been better if they offered hot food like eggs instead of just breads and yogurts. The juice and coffee was abundant and the parfait with fresh fruit was delicious.

The stay was nice and the hotel was in a good location. The walls are paper thin and we could hear the guy in the next room breathing heavy all night.
There was a cat meowing and pawing at our door from 3:30 a.m. until 6:30 a.m. Very disturbing. Staff great! Beautiful old historic hotel. Bed just ok.

We stayed in room 6.
The washer/Dryer is directly under that room so it was little noisy but manageable.
The water temperature fluctuates a lot l guess the hot and cold water might possibly be sharing the same pipes as the washer/dryer below
The TVs remote does not work properly.
