Great stay, incredible location.
Loved staying at Hard Rock Hotel. Location was SUPERB. The bed was terrific. Everything was great, except the shower and sink did not drain well. Other than that, would stay again. Great service, food, drinks, decor, etc. Thought it might be cheesy or run-down, and none of that was true! It was a great stay!

Unfortunately, my experience at Hard Rock Hotel was tarnished by a disappointing incident. After leaving my coat, scarf, and gloves in the room post-checkout, I returned to the hotel after driving 2 hours to collect them. While the coat was returned, my scarf and gloves were nowhere to be found. Despite my certainty that I had left them behind, the housekeeping team claimed they were not there, which left me feeling disappointed. That said, apart from this issue, the rest of my stay was fantastic. The hotel front staff were friendly and attentive, the room was clean, spacious, and the location couldn’t have been more convenient—close to all the major attractions and easy to navigate. My husband and I truly enjoyed our time at the hotel as the hotel offers excellent service in most areas, but incidents like this make it difficult to fully trust the staff. Guests should feel assured that if items are left behind, they will be returned rather than lost or unaccounted for. It’s something I hope the management will address to maintain the trust and satisfaction of their guests.
