GOSBY HOUSE INN
Bed & Breakfast with fully equipped, decorated and superior rooms with outdoor patio and balcony
Bed & breakfast in a pretty yellow Victorian house. Some rooms have outdoor patios and balconies overlooking the Pacific. Most have lovely fireplaces to warm up on chilly coastal evenings. All are decorated with a pronounced taste for the past. Pleasant garden. Some superior rooms have whirlpool baths. You'll feel right at home at Gosby's, where you can nibble all day on treats prepared in the kitchen. Between 5pm and 7pm, cheese and wine are served in the lobby.

Povides a good complimentary breakfast with various options. Some may find it limited but very good quality and selection for the size of the venue (I think 22 rooms). Personnel was friendly and caring. Cheese and whine are also complimentary in the afternoon (4pm-6pm) with cake/cookies as sweet options. I do not drink alcohol therefore I cannot assess what was presented but the food selection was delicious.
Free parking was available from 6pm-9am directly at the venue. It is located in downtown Pacific Grove, a lot of dining options or shops are conveniently located nearby. Still very quiet area, though. I was there during the weekend and there was music playing from the nearby restaurants in the evening which may be bothersome to some (was reduced late evening) - I didn't mind it that much. Nearby (approx 5-10min walk) is a coastal walkway where you can spot otters eating/cracking clams and seals swimming directly along the beautiful coast. I enjoyed my time at the Monterey Peninsula a lot and this place had it's fair share :)
The room. We stayed in the ElMarie. This was a charming room on the first floor with a window bench for reading. Room was nice and had a small fridge. Bed was comfortable. The bathroom was small with the toilet a little snug against the shower for a bigger guy like me but fine. The only drawback for some may be for this room is near the back entrance and can be noisy when others allow the door to slam and talk loudly going by. This is a B&B and walls are a little thin. It wasn't a lot or late but did happen.
Amenities. This place was great. The breakfast was different each morning and provided a variety of options. There was an egg option each day. Potatoes or pancakes on different days. eggs benedict another. There was hand made mucil and oatmeal, fruit, and breakfast cake, sourdough and wheat bread. Also bagels.
In the evening there was the wine and cheese but also salami with crackers. For those not into wine, there is mineral waters, coke, and diet coke available as well. These are available all day in the dining are.
If you have dietary issues. Do not be afraid to speak to the staff, my wife has many issues and the chef made her an egg white scramble for breakfast and was going to go out of her way to come up with other options as well for our next mornings.
Lis and staff are great! This was our first stay, but will not be our last.
