  • It seems with new staff, they didn’t treat me like a returning customer for over 10 years.

    “Your shuttle driver Charlie, went out of his way to assist me upon my arrival at 9 p.m. He offered to assit me when I had to retrun my rented vehicle a the Monterey airport. He asked me to follow him; helped me to take my car to the return parking lot, and where to return my key; he then drove me back with shuttle to the hotel, safe and sound. I truly appreciate his efforts and I truly believe he needs to be recognized as an excellent employee and a wonderful individual. Thank you.”

  • Great location, beautiful views but mediocre service and rooms

    6/10

    haochenz96 · NONE · 2026-08-24

    “Great location with beautiful views of the golf course. The staff were friendly but had some communication issues: 1. told us "parking is included" but still charged us in the end 2. back-and-forth on availability of housekeeping items, which wasted us lots of time Most hotel buildings are 3-floor, and we stayed on the second floor where the soundproofing was awful - could hear everything in the hallway / floor above.”

  • My first and last time staying at Hyatt Regency and Spa in Monterey, CA!

    “Haven’t been by this resort in a long time, however since their renovation, it is a wonderful inviting place. Great location! Proximity to Bay Area, Carmel and Big Sur is easy! Staff very accommodating, friendly. Amenities are nice and options for food and beverage and snacks very good. Casual relaxing spaces around fireplaces and cozy swings out front are a bonus. The atmosphere is very nice and comfortable.”

    “We stay annually ... and it's always a pleasure ... consistently excellent service and quality facility. Close proximity to Carmel downtown and easy to get to off freeway.”

  • Very “tired” decor! Breakfast is great but the dinner menu and food leaves much to be desired

    6/10

    brendabrewster56 · Business · 2026-08-21

    “The hotel is “tired” and outdated. The breakfast is great but dinner is not! No room service. The breakfast staff should be preparing the dinner menu. Maybe it would be better. We have been staying for several years for car week and we know that dinner is not an option at this restaurant. If you want a decent meal at dinner time you have to go out.”
