Directions to Monterey:

By Air

The two closest airports to Montery are Monterey Peninsula Airport and San Jose International Airport. While Monterey Peninsula Airport may be closer (only 3.7 mi. to the hotel!), it is also more expensive in terms of airfare. On the flip side, while San Jose may be more economical, you will probably want to rent a car to get to Monterey. Both airports are served by major carriers and have car rental facilities on site.
