What guests say
8.4 / 10 · Very good on Booking.com, from 955 guest reviews
Butterfly Grove Inn earns consistently warm reviews for its prime Pacific Grove location, direct access to the Monarch Butterfly Sanctuary trail, impressively spacious rooms with vaulted ceilings, and a genuinely quiet setting. However, a recurring thread of practical complaints — low water pressure, absent air conditioning, ageing fixtures, sagging mattresses, and thin walls — signals that maintenance and room updates have not fully kept pace, with a handful of guests noting they would consider alternatives on a return visit.
