The Pine Inn: "The Pine Inn" California Hotel Tip by londonlover

Unique Qualities: An historic and beautiful inn just off the main street in Carmel. Definitely the best place to stay in town; expensive, but worth it. Mints on your pillow, a suite with a huge bathroom with jacuzzi and a TV, and a very good light breakfast. This is a picture of the inn's main lounge--gorgeous and cozy!
