Guest reviews for Hard Rock Hotel Penang

Family (1)
4 out of 5

Nice hotel with an excellent staff.

Pros: The staff.
Cons: The wi-fi is horrible. That could be a good thing because I couldn't work but it sucked because I couldn't communicate well with family.
Location: Make sure to do the night market as you can eat there very cheap. The hotel has a free shuttle that will take you there.
I went here with some trepidation from reviews I read on TripAdvisor. However, they were soon dispelled from the time I got out of the taxi. The staff greets you very warmly and welcomes the entire family with welcome drinks. I timed my arrival to come right at check-in. The room was ready and I had a great view right in the middle of the hotel on the fourth floor. We had a great view of the ocean and the pool below. However, it was the staff that made the stay so pleasant. They were just amazing. Everyone goes out of their way to make sure you have what you want and are always smiling.
