Restaurant was a little over priced, the bar had a good selection, but the bar staff was very unwelcoming.

Hyatt Regency Monterey Hotel & Spa
The location offers great privacy. The lobby, bar, coffee shop, and pool area excellent. The buffet was great but you'll have to pay extra for omelets or other specialty dishes. Highly recommend.
