The Pacific Grove

Welcome to The Pacific Grove at The Grey Whale Inn

Step into a sanctuary where the rugged coast meets the serene forest. Named after the iconic California groves, The Pacific Grove offers a sophisticated blend of nature-inspired design and modern comfort.

The centerpiece of the room is a beautiful wall mural of a misty evergreen forest, creating a tranquil backdrop for your stay. Relax on the luxurious King-sized bed, outfitted with premium linens, and enjoy the natural light from the windows overlooking historic Main Street. Keep a keen eye out the window - you might catch a peek of the world-famous Skunk Train as it whistles past on its way into the redwoods.

Modern Comforts

We’ve blended the historic charm of the Inn with contemporary luxury. Start your morning slowly with in-room coffee before stepping into your fully updated private bathroom. Featuring high-end fixtures and modern penny tiles, the refreshed aesthetic is the perfect place to unwind after a day of exploring the Mendocino coast.

The Location

Located on the vibrant Main Street side of the Inn, you are just steps away from Fort Bragg’s best local coffee shops, galleries, and the world-famous Glass Beach. Whether you’re here to see the "Giants of the Sea" or the "Giants of the Forest," The Pacific Grove is your perfect home base.

A Hidden Piece of History

While today it is a lush retreat, this room holds a unique piece of our building's heritage. In its former life, this space served as a double-bed hospital room. We’ve reimagined the clinical footprint into a spacious, airy haven that honors its history through generous proportions and a quiet, healing atmosphere.

Innkeeper’s Note: If you look very carefully, you will find a small treasure from the past: the hospital’s original call light for nurses, a subtle reminder of the care and history woven into these walls.
