Renamed after John Steinbeck’s Cannery Row, this historic area has transformed since the gritty industrial days described in the book.

Cannery Row was a busy sardine canning district, until the industry collapsed after overfishing. The grand old warehouses have been repurposed and today a vibrant blend of old and new make Cannery Row look quite attractive indeed. One warehouse has the amazing Monterey Bay Aquarium. Galleries, boutiques, historical attractions and restaurants fill the other warehouses. And, because of its setting on Monterey Bay, Cannery Row is always good for great ocean views.

9/10 Wonderful! (6,293 reviews)
Magnificent staff and visit with the exception of not being able to enter the breakfast area for a quick muffin etc on the go- very strict rules where even a cup of coffee is strictly forbidden to take out of the breakfast room. Multiple employees inside , directly outside the door and hall to enforce the rule. We ended up forgoing the included breakfast each day we were there and spending additional money on the onsite shop. The breakfast looked lovely just be prepared to entire and be required to eat there among the crowd of people delaying your schedule
