Seven Gables Inn, A Kirkwood Collection Hotel in CA 93950, open June–October.
Seven Gables Inn stands apart as the only Kirkwood Collection property directly perched on the Pacific Grove coastline, offering dramatic ocean views that serve as a natural backdrop without requiring additional décor investment.
This 1889 Victorian mansion combines intimate luxury with modern event infrastructure, hosting ceremonies on its private oceanfront grounds and receptions in elegantly appointed indoor spaces overlooking Monterey Bay.
Lovely place to stay and the room was sublime. A place with no “room service” or elevators so if your knees are weak don’t stay in the higher rooms. To get items like coffee packets or water you have to go to the main lobby building. Waking up to the sunrise was delightful! And to see the otters play was so much fun! Breakfast-Selective fruits, coffee,tea and oat milk. Juices, quiche and a few baked selections. Breakfast is decent but don’t expect any extras - oatmeal yes but no walnuts, potatoes but no salsa sour creme or avocado. Overall very happy and would definitely comeback in the summer if the price is right ☺️
