Salinas – 23 hotels and places to stay

Located in Salinas, this motel is a 5-minute drive from the Steinbeck Museum and is 2 miles from the San Saba Vineyards.

Their was plenty of parking spots and it was fairly quiet for a weekend on that side of town. The booking process was really fast and the staff was very nice and accommodating. The bedding actually smelled clean liked they washed it. The bed was comfortable.

Conveniently located off Highway 101 with easy access to Highway 68, this Salinas, California hotel offers guest rooms with free WiFi. The National Steinbeck Center is 15 minutes’ walk away.

There was hair everywhere. In the tub, on the bathroom floor, on the toilet seat. But worst of all on the bed sheets. It looked like the sheets had not been changed

    The Steinbeck Center is a must.

    The Steinbeck Center is a must. I had breakfast at a local coffee shop on Main street, a few blocks away from the Steinbeck center. I can't remember the name, but the food was good and affordable. The staff was great. Seems like a draw for the locals.

    A little farther from Monterey than I would have liked.

    A little farther from Monterey than I would have liked. Took 45 minutes with traffic. Went to Fujiyama Japanese Restaurant in salinas. The chefs make it interactive, So much fun to watch them prepare the meal, the food was fantastic and my 8 year old loved it.

    There is a one day reason to stay in Salinas, John Steinbeck Museum. Unfortunately booking.com is trying to charge us for TWO Nights. I am on the verge of never using OR recommending them again. Please booking.com refund us for the night we did not stay at Salinas Best Western. We only stayed the ONE night .

    I came to Salinas in September of 2020 as a traveler for nuclear medicine. I was to be in Salinas for 2 months at Natividad hospital. At first I was disappointed that Monterey Car Week and other car events had been cancelled. I heard of the Salinas Cars and Coffee on Main Street near Starbucks. I met some really great guys there as well as going on a cruise held by the guys at Deadend Magazine. I have a newer muscle car but everyone was friendly and great! I was asked to extend my contract for another month and I agreed. It was sad to leave in November and return to my home in Las Vegas. I am currently back in Salinas working at Natividad. They requested me specifically while a staff member was off on medical leave. I was excited to have the opportunity to return and see everyone again. I love the city and the car culture here. Everyone was very helpful and friendly. As an example, I had issues with my brakes and one of the guys offered his tools, garage, and time to change them out for me. The weather is great and there is plenty to do and see here. Especially if you are into automobiles. There have been some vehicles here I have not seen since I was a kid. I have enjoyed my second stay just as much or more! It’s almost like a second home and I have made some great friends!!

    A boutique hotel. Rooms large with amazingly large bathroom. Set in a very old building which has been made from a large house into hotel rooms. Very quiet location. Room has an iron available. No staff available on check in but an email on the day of arrival for your stay included a code to enter the building and code to enter your room. The town of Salinas is about 5 minutes away where you are able to buy meals. Fridge in room was an added bonus. Ironing facilities in room
