Hyatt Regency Newport Beach

The overall experience was alright, all things considered. My darling and I came here for our anniversary after having enjoyed the atmosphere when we came for a holiday party last year- but it seems like a group occasion like that would be better suited for this hotel. ESPECIALLY since the walls are not very sound proof and you could here is the humdrum of ongoing hotel traffic and the commotion of other rooms. Our room was surprisingly small, but I would assume the available amenities like golf, biking, and three available pools made it so that you wouldn't spend too much time in your room, anyways. For someone looking to be out and about, that would be perfect. However, if you are like us and find yourself exhausted after a whole day of constant, back-to-back events, perhaps seek a different room. We spent the majority of one of our days inside the room where we noted it felt quite suffocating, even with the patio door completely open. The functionality of the room was awkward, particularly with the bathroom. The great hunk of door leading into it swings inward and kind of isolates the toilet from everything else, and I can't tell if that was done intentionally, but if it was, the execution leaves much to be desired. And, the interior design was quirky in a way where it seemed forced because having contemporary artwork was a requirement. This would be an ideal option for family stays or group events, but if your intention is a relaxing, mellow ambience- this would not be that place.

Overpriced for low value. Not the cleanest room. Towels and toilet paper were incredibly cheap quality. Would not return.
