Overall the property is in good condition and the staff were all really courteous, knowledgeable and keen to make sure we were taken care of. A couple of fixtures are outdated but that’s being really picky. We’ll definitely come back.

Five star stay
Whilst on a recent Disney holiday we decided to book the Hard Rock for one night to take advantage of the express pass offer. Arrived at 10am and Paige in reception was very accommodating and managed to find us a room early which was hugely appreciated. We could then leave our belongings safely in the room whilst accessing Universal, which was a five minute walk away. Our 9 year old loved everything about the hotel, especially all of the memorabilia located around. All facilities looked clean and menus on offer looked amazing. Great stay as expected from the Hard Rock Hotel brand, would definitely recommend and also return in the future!

Within a 5 mins walk to the universal theme park gates, this is the greatest strength of the hard rock hotel. The rooms are dated, unclean, dusty and in dire need of a refresh considering the premium rates charged. Dinner at the Palms restaurant was very nice, must try the lobster.
