So rating a hotel really has to be relative. So my best way to compare this Hyatt is to contrast our stay with the Grand Hyatt in Kauai. These are almost identically priced for oceanfront balcony room. The Maui Hyatt Regency is awful. The carpets are stained. The hotel is dirty. The rooms have not been updated. They are small. While the lobby is fabulous with a sweeping open concept with shops and birds and flowers and a little penguin pool, the rooms in this Maui Hyatt are just awful. The interior really compares to a Motel 6. In contrast, the similarly priced rooms at the Grand Hyatt in Kauai are fabulous. Absolutely 5 star. Those are spacious, modern, updated,luxurious. The Grand Hyatt in Kauai is a gem. For the same $, the Hyatt Regency in Maui is a dump.
