Disappointing Experience

, Sherwood Park , AB
2022-02-16
We decided to go with Rock Royalty for the ability to have a more private area due to Covid and having to test before coming home. The pools were closed for the last half of our stay.

Booking our PCR test was atrocious. We had to go back up to our room multiple times to get items they did not tell us to bring.

Room service was lacking. An order was completely missed one time and then every other time we ordered, items were missing. We would have to call back to get what we needed.

Our room decor was worn out and old.

For the price we payed to stay there, I was expecting a much better experience. We should have paid half the price. [Details]

Amazing Vacation

, Calgary, AB
2016-02-12
This property as absolutely amazing. I was there of a week with a my best friend. The service, food and staff where 5 star all the way. We stayed on the 6th floor in an ocean view diamond club suite which was very spacious and had every amenity that we needed and more. Right down to the linens everything was 5 star. The whole vacation was very relaxing. The Italian restaurant was our favorite for dinner but all the restaurants did have great food. [Details]

It would have been nice if the disco was open every night..other than sitting at the bar there wasn't much to do on the resort. Out of my entire stay they opened the disco twice. [Details]

Great room service and grounds, most staff were friendly.
The weak points
I didn't like the fact that 3 of 4 pools were closed and under renovation upon arrival. I found the infinity pool to be packed. The food wasn't bad, but not consistent with quality at each restaurant. Also, the disco was onlyopen twice out of the 7 nights

Great Stay at the Hard Rock Cancun!

, Maple, ON
2013-08-09
Loved this hotel...Visited it when it was called Cancun Palace and knew I wanted to stay at it next time we were in Cancun. Loved the staff, the service, the rooms, the beach, the spa and the restaurants. The pool water was much too warm. The 'romantic dinner' had fantastic ambiance and yucky food. Overall experience was extremely good. Loved this Hotel!!! [Details]

Below Expectation

, Pickering, ON
2013-07-09
This was our first time in Cancun...the hotel was below our expectation not a 4.5 star more a 2.5 star. Most of the front desk and service staff were not very friendly, ONLY LOOKING FOR TIPS. Very few service staff was helpful, we book 2 oceanview room, one room was good the other the toilet did not work, light bulbs were blown, towels were very old and fray,the waiters by the pool and beach were hard to find, you had to get your own drinks. All spa and other services should be booked prior to leaving, we were not inform of this...your travel agents should inform customes of these things...would not go back to this HARD ROCK [Details]

Stayed the 2-9 of June. Rained first four days non-stop. Dolphin tour was amazing well worth the price. Jungle tour was fine, but bring tons of sunscreen for that tour. Hotel overall was fine. Not enough entertainment. Amazing kids-club and staff who run it. [Details]

Hard Rock Hotel Cancun

, Mississauga, ON
2013-05-27
Overall we had a great vacation. Here are some highlights, good and bad.
The wi-fi was very hard to connect to and had a very weak signal. The rooms were not as big as Hard Rock Punta Cana so we were disappointed. The beach was awesome and the water was warm. Same with the infinity pool ... extremely warm and always a party going on in there. Plus it overlooks the ocean. We were on the 9th floor with an amazing ocean view room. It had two double beds instead of a king. If we wanted to switch, we couldn't until the next day and they were going to move us to the third floor with a downgraded view.
The food was good in all the restaurants. We only had to wait once for approx. five minutes at the Italian restaurant.
I would recommend this resort for families and couples. [Details]

We were there for part of the Official Grand Opening & had a blast. We have stayed at the hotel numerous times while it was still Cancun Palace & the changes made are great. The staff here are the best, ANYWHERE!!! The food is great & no reservations are needed at any of the restaurants. The free calling to Canada & free wifi is an added bonus. We will definitely return.
Be sure to try a Bumblebee. [Details]

Amazing Service after you get past the Front Desk

, Mississauga, ON
2012-03-14
If it wasn't for the incredibly rude and unhelpful front desk people, this would have been a perfect family vacation. Absolutely the worst service at a front desk we have ever received in all our years of travel. Originally we spoke to Ezavala, not only could he not give us any information about the room he was putting us in, he muttered under his breath in Spanish and was completely rude! They put us in a tiny room with 2 double beds then we had to squeeze in a crib which we had to push around just to get around the room. When we went back the front desk to get a room with a king bed, we were told that they were completely booked and that we could not be moved. Strange because the resort didn't look crowded at all. And after speaking to other staff in the hotel, we were told that they were only at anywhere between 30-40% capacity. Feeling lied to, we went back to the front desk again asking to be moved, at which time we were told that we were placed on a waiting list. We went back the next day and once again we were put on a DIFFERENT waiting list. And again the next day we were once again put on ANOTHER waiting list. It seemed like they were just making new lists every day to make guests feel like they were doing something, which clearly they were not. By the 3rd day into our trip in the afternoon we went again to the front desk. This time we got someone who actually listened to our problem and actually LOOKED in the computer and he found us a room with a king bed which was all we needed from someone in the beginning. So as mentioned earlier, if it wasn't for the front desk staff, this is a great family resort. There are lots of activities for kids and even a kids club where there is a small water park, video games, arcade and a kitchen. The main pool was clean and warm. There's even a kiddie pool so parents can sunbath while kids played in the shallow water. The staff onsite was always helpful and polite. They provided the absolute same service whether you chose to tip or not, which is amazing! The facilities were also very clean. The food was ok. Of all the restaurants, we would recommend the tappenyaki. The spa was very relaxing and highly recommended. All in all, the resort was nice even though they were undergoing renovations. Considering the nightmare with the front desk, the rest of the staff was what saved our first family vacation with our little one from becoming a complete disaster. [Details]

The resort staff, with the exception of the front desk, was amazing! They were very accomodating to our needs especially since we were travelling with a small child.
The weak points
Absolutely, hands down, the worst service at the front desk. Nobody knew what they were doing. They couldn't answer any of our questions about the rooms or the resort.

Front desk not friendly and takes up a lot of time. $1500 Resort credit with too many restrictions and requirement to pay 11% tax on many things. Converting to a Hard Rock Hotel so main entrance was closed.

I love this hotel!!! Various restaurants to choose from, food is great & this includes 24 hr room service. Staff is the best around and love the fact they remember us year after year. Have become email/FB friends with some of them. $1,500 Palace Promo was an additional bonus & used this for limo ride to airport, spa services, tequila purchases & cremes used for home facials. Can't wait to return. [Details]
