Very enjoyable stay. Obviously very busy with the start of school holidays in Malaysia and lots of visitors but still managed to find little areas of peace & sunbeds by the pool! Staff all excellent and friendly - common areas clean and enjoyable to relax in. Facilities good - the main restaurant and "Pizzeria" very clean, good food & lovely staff. Swimming pools good with areas for families (ie kids) and adults. Splash area was looking a little worn with the underfoot surface degraded but not unexpected considering the heavy use. Breakfast amazing. Good quality and enough to go round even when it was at its most craziest! Only thing I'll say is please make more teh tarik - it always ran out by 9am and no top up. Room great (we had a seaview) - large clean and had all the storage we needed and amenities (two bottles of water a day & tea/ coffee making facility). TV entertainment brilliant with plenty of movies and TV shows available. Overall very happy and look forward to staying again!

I went with my seven year old daughter and she loved the pool with slides and the very well organized Kids club. I found the food to be just so so but it is easy enough to order from Grab. Staff is friendly enough although the deposit and payment system could be easier. I would definitely recommend for families with children who need entertainment. Also very close to Escape Penang

Nice modern hotel over looking the sea, was disappointed not to see clear blue sea as apparently they have removed a lot of sand in the sea and now its more murky so you don't know what's in the warer need to be careful of the jelly fish. The hotel reception staff were friendly smooth check in, nice room comfortable bed and good shower. Breakfast could get very busy, good selection to eat staff some days were too busy to greet you, around the pool at certain times of day you could hear the noise from children great for fanilues not so good for couples but some quiet sun bsthing areas to get away from it. The pool life guats was very good helped recommend thibgs to do Feetrah? Sorr

Potentially could be better.

The Hard Rock hotel Penang is starting to show its age. Overall is a good hotel that needs a lot of maintenance in the rooms and swimming pool. Staff were brilliant and with the exception of breakfast was really good. Breakfast tends to cater more for Asian guests, beef bacon or turkey ham just doesn’t cut it.
