This is an excellent B&B. Owners and staff are all so very charming and accomodating. Whimsical, historical, comfortable place to stay. Evening wine and morning breakfast were done expertly. Be aware the third floor rooms are small, which put off another reviewer, however we were aware going in. Best B&B we've ever visited.

Magical Stay in Monterey
Amazing stay in a perfect location, a 3-minute walk to Cannery Row, wonderful hosts who pay attention to all the details, Warm welcoming with wine and appetizers, and delicious homemade breakfast. The room was cozy and comfortable. The decor and grounds of the Jabberwock Inn are magical especially if you're a fan of Wonderland.

The hosts did everything they could to make us feel right at home and we needed the relaxation we found here. Breakfast was delicious and the hotel was super walkable with free parking for our rental that we didn't need here. I could not ask for a better stay and we will stay here anytime in Monterey.

Birthday get-away
We have stayed at the Inn several times over the years. Greeted at door and given tour of house. Beautiful grounds. Breakfast was delicious and beverages were provided 24 hours. Plus homebaked goods out also. Within walking distance of restaurants for dinner.

This bed and breakfast was absolutely fantastic. For my first time experiencing a bed in breakfast I no longer want to do high end hotels that cost massive amounts of money. Although, it is nice to have extremely modern amenities, the level of individual care to each guest makes a world of difference.
The property is Alice in Wonderland themed. It is walking distance to everything in Monterey. Cannery row, the aquarium, and many markets. The breakfast they served was delicious and very filling. Everything homemade and nothing frozen. I would definitely recommend staying here.

The Jabberwock Inn is nicely situated a short walk from the ocean and an easy drive in from the freeway. It was easy to find and easy to park. The Cannery and other things are just a short walk away. There are some lovely views from the hotel over the ocean.
I was met by the hosts when I arrived and was made to feel very welcome and very much at home. I was shown round and given some of the interesting history of the building. There was also complimentary wine and hors d'oeuvres. There is no dinner served here but I was given a selection of recommendations tailored to my preferences and I took up one of these (the Fish Hopper) which was just a short walk away
The hotel itself is absolutely dripping with charm and character, I found myself taking as many photos inside the place as I did outside in the town! My room was of a pleasant size, with a nice large bed which was very comfortable. I had a nice en suite with a shower and all the expected "consumables" provided. I was also provided with some brandy which was unexpected but a welcome night cap.
Breakfast was lovely, very unique and well presented and all done with absolute care and attention to detail. Everything in the place is down to the last detail. It is an utter delight.
I was kinda sad to leave when it was time to check out, again a most friendly and agreeable process.
