Good Hotel for Family
The hotel room was not ready upon my arrival but we were offered a welcome drink for the whole family. The environment is generally nice but it's a busy resort. Breakfast on first day was quite terrible but Nigel from the restaurant was EXCELLENT, he took my feedback and the next few days the food was better. Rooms take longer to be redone but I like the in-room entertainment. Generally it's not a place if you want a QUIET retreat. But my kids enjoyed themselves and that's what is most important. Staff are also ready to serve, so customer service is good. Thank you for a memorable stay.

Some areas of improvement for a nice hotel
The services of the staffs were very good and polite, parking was easy and safe. Very visible security personnel patrolling the car park area. Check in and checkout were a breeze. The maintenance crews are also working hard to upkeep the cleanliness of the hotel. The morning buffet spared was also excellent. However there are a couple of areas i hope the management can look into as these are potential hazards that can injured young kids. Firstly the small squarish knob that you push when you want to exit the bathroom or toilet is quite sharp on 4 corners. Secondly, the edge of the floor tile interfacing the washing area and the toilet area is also quite sharp. Hard Rock Hotel is evidently a very popular hotel for families with kids but these potential hazards are accidents waiting to happen. Lastly the carpet in the room is flaking terribly, There were furballs everywhere.

The price between when I did the booking and I paid to the hotel reception it was very big difference. I forgot my iPhone charger in the room. Nobody from hotel email me or call me about that. I will don’t stay anymore in this hotel in the future.

Friendly staff and nice breakfast buffet spread
My wife and I decided to book a room for our short staycation and had dm via fb messenger regarding the complimentary parking. The response was prompt as we received the reply within the same day. I paid for the Superior room with 1 king bed for 2nights(14-16 Nov).The access to the parking at the hotel premise was convenient and the plus factor was that there was a security guard stationed at the parking location. We were assisted by Kogul and Farizzuan upon checking in at the lobby. Kogul was friendly and we received an 'upgrade' to higher floor room which was facing the water park. He was patient during the transition as my wife enquired the directions to the restaurant and the timing for the breakfast buffet. The room was overall ok except that we found ants crawling around the toilet basin and flying insects around the lights. I would suggest in having the pillows changed as they were really 'very used' and flattened. It was a real discomfort as we could not sleep well. We went for a massage session at the Rock Spa and the experience was great.Another plus factor was that the breafast buffet spread was extensive and some of the food items were different on the 2 consecutive days. I liked the teh tarik and it tasted authentic. There is room of improvement overall but keep up the good work and customer service.

Fantastic stay over Deepavali long weekend
We had a very enjoyable and relaxing time over the Deepavali long weekend staying at this hotel: The staff were all very friendly and approachable, providing good service in all areas throughout our stay. Special thanks and compliments to Aiman from Sessions Restaurant for always being enquiring and attentive to our needs. The easy access to the Adventure Coast Waterpark is convenient and a bonus. We also had a relaxing experience at the spa and enjoyed the music from the live band in the evenings. Overall a fantastic stay!
