The only person on the staff we did not like was one of the entertainment staff around the pool - she was extremely pushy, rude and very abrasive.

Ok Resort for price

, Sydney Mines, NS
2023-01-19
Hotel close to airport. Stayed in better room for same price at other hotels. Room was very dated, two double beds in room, headboards were discoloured and faded. Closet doors were very dusty. Had to dust them ourselves before putting away clothing. Huge room with no dresser for clothing. Few shelves in closet. [Details]

The strong points
Food was good. Our greeter to the breakfast buffet (Sofia) was wonderful, always smiling and willing to assist.
The weak points
Not enough chairs at main pool and beach. If you wanted a chair you needed to lay a towel out very early in the morning i.e. 6:00 a.m. We were on vacation and shouldn't have to rise early to do this. Mentioned to management but they could not help.
Sanitary measures
There were sanitary dispensers but most were empty.

Hotel Nyx, Cancun

, Nepean, ON
2022-12-04
This was our 11th stay at the Nyx and we had an excellent vacation. We were warmly welcomed by reception and bell men, shown to our requested room. The room and hotel are kept very clean, the food is of excellent quality and well presented. The bar service is also excellent. The staff at the Nyx continue to be of the best, the quality of service in the breakfast room, the Deck Restaurant and the Magic Bar and Lobby Bar are second to none. Also our room was kept so nice and clean, as is the Lobby and all areas of the hotel. [Details]

Wonderful stay

, Winnipeg, MB
2019-02-28
Absolutely adorable hotel in a front ocean line with white sand shore and a palm yard. The Desk restaurant is over any expectations. The Italian one can be an example for all other restaurants of Cancun in terms of dish service, a variety of gorgeous Italian desserts, types of wine etc. Roman served us the last night before departure and we were impressed by his work. The bell boy did his job fantastically, always with a smile and great attitudes. Love LOVE LOVE [Details]

Restaurants, service, beach, DJ, and bands each night

Cleaning of the room can be better. The first impression after check-in was not pleasant because the room was complete in the dust. Then we started paying tips for room maintenance, our room was perfect

You get what you pay for

, Kamloops, BC
2017-02-11
We got an amazing deal at Nyx hotel. And overall, it was really decent and mostly good considering what we pay. This is not a fancy resort but it does have a lot of potential and they are working hard to make this resort appealing. The good... we ended up with an ocean view room after not being able to put up with the noise in the main building where the room was at first. We want to thank Jonathan for making this happen and really hearing our concern. The beach at the Nyx is marvelous and can't get any better. The food is mostly great especially their authentic Mexican dishes. They have some great chefs at dinner and the food presentation and taste is fabulous. We did not like restaurant style lunches and would have preferred to have a buffet for lunch instead as it often took a while to get the food. The service is hit and miss. Some staff went out of their way to be friendly and helpful. We would like to acknowledge Eddy and Erik for their great service. But there were number of staff who were either indifferent or even grumpy and unfriendly. I am not sure if that was because they didn't speak English or because they expected bigger tips. Room service was hit and miss as well. The entertainment was "modern" and usually too loud. We were glad to be in a tower away from it. Overall, it was a good enough experience and a very good value resort. [Details]

Cancun Vacation

, Stuartburn, MB
2017-01-21
We had wonderful service and everyone was very accommodating. Johnathan the activity coordinator was very good and entertaining. I enjoyed the food and my stay very much. The only thing that I was expecting was an elevator by the 7 th day my legs were getting sore probably because of my car accident a year ago and I had a broken leg and sprained ankle from the accident.

A place to stay if you dont want to do much.

, Toronto, ON
2016-11-25
NYX hotel is a place to stay if youve been to Cancun several times. There is really nothing to do here except for the live band nightly but finishes around 2230 ish. Food is excellent at first but got tired by the end of our stay. Breakfast is alright. I was just getting the omelette almost everyday. Waffles are soggy even when freshly made. Lunch is a lacarte, where you choose off the menu. Menu given to you is the same everyday. Dinner is a la carte also with some of the choices from the lunch menu. Appetizers and soup buffet changes almost every night.
The service is good. One waiter i did not appreciate was a man named Arturo. At first, he was alright. But the next time we saw him. What a snob! haha maybe our tip was not enough the first time. Anyway, Id like to give a shout out who EDDY who is very attentive with or without tip. A very passionate and perfectionist!:D I mean I have no problems with giving tips. I even prepared myself giving out tips and changed bills to singles 1's,5's and 10's to every person serving us.
Room (1502)
We were on a junior suite. It was clean
The room was quite spacious. It looked bigger in the picture. We had an ocean view. Unfortunately, we were placed in the older building. yayks! Its alright we get to see the entertainment show they always have next door which is the BEACH PALACE. lol
Beach area was excellent except for the strong currents that led to red flags almost everyday. Maybe because of the dates we chose. Mid NOV. Enough palapas to lounge on.

Massage people are a little agressive selling their "promotions".

Oh and theres a contruction going on both sides of the building. You can hear them drilling from the beach. haha.

All in all an okay stay compare with the price of other hotels in Cancun [Details]

This hotel is very well laid out, everything is easy to get too. We stayed on the 5th floor centre, what a view. It is the staff and the food that made this resort 5 star. [Details]

Our first trip to Cancun

, Coal Harbour, BC

The beach was ok, service was good on most days. Wifi was slow in our room and that was when we were able to connect, would have been nice to have more than one option for meals but overall it was good. [Details]

The strong points
Antonio at the pool bar was amazing. The location was good, just a short bus ride into town. Check in was fast and easy, the bellhop brought all our luggage up to our room. Resort was somewhat small but we found it easy to get around.
The weak points
The menu was repetitive and when asked for more bottled water and coffee in our room we were denied. No nightly entertainment

Nice Hotel, with more potential ...

, Montreal, QC
2016-01-24
Hotel itself I'd give a 4 star.
Stayed in Master suite(newer tower)also a 4 star
The food, oh my goodness, very very disappointed, 90% time served COLD !
Except for breakfast, very good.
Very little variety for lunch,beach menu and dinner, only one restaurant, so don't expect much.
Many thanks to the following staff:
RECEPTION: Rebeca, professional and very pleasant, thank you for a very quick and easy check-in.
WAITERS: Alberta, Richard,Edwin and Alex,regardless of the "cold food" they did their best.
EXECUTIVE CHEF: Antonio, thank you
BREAKFAST CHEF: Edgar, you did an amazing job, one chef for all hotel.
BELLBOY: Carlos, thank you for being so charming and helpfull
The nightly entertainment is short,located at The DECK (only restaurant)not much room to dance,even if you wanted to. Once done not much more to do, no music anywhere, very disappointing.
BARTENDERS: BEWARE! They are super nasty, Alexander, you are one of them, never smiled, rude and ignored travellers requests?? Another one through water bottles in sink when I requested one ??
POOLS: Were cold :(
I DO NOT GIVE THIS HOTEL MORE THAN 3 STARS, ESPECIALLY FOR FOOD, 2.5
I enjoy writing positive reviews, unfortunetly, this hotel does not merit. [Details]
