Have stayed here multiple times since 2016 and always feel comfortable. It’s not the newest property, but the rooms are clean and spacious. Great location with easy access to many focal points. Quiet neighborhood. Will be back again!
Jane, 4-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

This Inn was such a find. We have stayed here a few times and each has been wonderful. It is easy to find and parking is fantastic. We love that it borders the Butterfly sanctuary and can just step from our door to the pathway. The staff is always very pleasant and accommodating.

Convenient Location

We stayed here to visit the Monterey Bay Aquarium and friends in Pebble Beach. The location is great—close to both. The hotel has lots of space and a nice picnic area, and you can walk around outside. It feels a bit old, but it's a good spot if you want a lot of room and a convenient location.

Would stay there again

Not far from the ocean, next door to the monarch sanctuary, BGI is a good place...a little dated/rustic but we liked it...out of the mainstream...nice and quiet....good hot tub...would stay there again.
James, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Room was very clean & spacious. Could use a new bed, seemed worn down. Unfortunately we had to hear the kid next door constantly screaming and running/banging on things starting at 6am every day so I'm guessing the walls aren't very thick. It is a older place so expect it to show it but the price point was good. I do wish they offered pastries or muffins in the mornings, that would be helpful so we wouldn't have to try to get in somewhere to eat and spend another $60 just onbreakfast

The room was clean and comfortable. I would update the coffee to a kurig and put a smaller table in the kitchenette. Also bring back the continental breakfast!

This was my second time staying at Butterfly Grove Inn, it was great. It had everything we needed for our one night stay. The bed was comfortable and the bathroom was very spacious. The inn is located near the beach and has great food options nearby. I’d love to stay here again.

Adorable cottage in the woods

We got a giant room with high ceiling! A breakfast table for 4, a fridge and a microwave oven! The room is clean, the beds are super comfortable with extra blankets in the closely. The bathroom is small, with stacks of towels. The sink is tiny and is outside of the bathroom but the counter space is big and the mirror is large. Staff is friendly and parking is easy. We left a souvenir in our room and they are happy to ship it to our home for us. The hotel is in a woodsy area and we sat outside for our morning coffee. The hotel is cute with lots of amenities. We are very happy to have found this gem. ❤️
