Three free alcoholic drinks per person (21+) were offered each evening during dinner, as well.

they give out FREE food and drinks each day, the pool was nice and cool and hot tub was steaming hot.

They offer Breakfast and free food and drinks at night ,We are very pleased.

We were surprised to learn about included evening meals and drinks; evening meals were better than expected in that they were labeled snack

Adults are given a free beverage card which allows you to have 3 alcoholic drinks PER NIGHT between 5:30 and 7.

The meals and drinks alone saved us easily $100 a day.

After an exhausting day in traffic we were under the impression that drinks and food( we thought appetizers) would be a wonderful way to relax before going out for dinner.

Can’t beat the free breakfast and the kickoff plus the free drinks and free alcoholic drinks!

but wow, the evening snacks/dinning is also free and comes with 3 free alcoholic drinks!!!!

The associate said that we had 30 minutes left for the free drinks and meal.

Free breakfast, snack (actually a dinner), alcoholic drinks.

The evening reception was very nice after a long drive the adults were able to get three alcohol drinks, wine, beer, margarita etc… the dinner was good with a wide variety such as hotdogs baked potatoes, salade etc… they had a popcorn machine for kids also.

We enjoyed warm greetings from staff, daily maid service (rare these days), prompt responses to our requests (like extra wash cloths and blanket), hot buffet style breakfast, and afternoon manager’s reception with various food and drinks.

Exceeded expectations, made us feel comfortable, very clean room and staff cleaning lobby all the time at breakfast and evening drinks and food.

Was more than impressed with the food and drink provided at the kick-back dinner and breakfast.

It’s plenty for a meal and they allow multiple alcoholic drinks per adult for free so that was amazing at this hotel price.

The free drinks and food are a great way to end your day, as is the pool and hot tub.

Complimentary breakfast, dinner and drinks (not a brown bag you pick up item).

Each adult guest was able to receive 3 alcoholic drinks of their choice and there was a hot meal served.

The evening food and drinks is a must ; safety procedures in place due to Covid 19 situation and we feel very safe ,  anytime in Orlando we will book again

There’s an amazing free breakfast and I can’t say enough Miss Vicky who works the breakfast shift.

For a very reasonable price, our king room on the top floor was clean and comfortable, breakfast was included and also drinks and snacks in the afternoon.

We decided to try the Drury because of the reviews and the fact they included breakfast and the kickback in the evening.

Free breakfast, 3 free cocktails in the evening as well as a full meal ( not just snacks) the night we stayed they had grilled chicken strips, salad, potatoes, green beans, not sure if there were desserts,

Between 5:30PM and 7PM the hotel offers a free appetizer buffet and free soft drinks
One night there was Pasta Alfredo, sliced chicken breast, mixed salad, nachos & cheese and more.

Place looks new and comes with complimentary breakfast, dinner, and 3 alcoholic drinks daily!

Pros:
-biggest bang for your buck
- breakfast included hot and cold items, loved the hard boiled eggs, coffee and fruit
- Lucy was very helpful and always smiling
- three free glasses of wine, wow!

I knew from online reviews there is free breakfast 

After a good nights sleep, free breakfast.

The free buffet breakfast here sets you up for the day, it's great.

The cherry on the cake is the complimentary breakfast and evening ‘snacks’ which can save a packet.

They have a nice free breakfast buffet and an evening buffet for their guests.

Good breakfast and great  evening complimentary snacks/drinks 
5 minutes away from Universal.

Every morning there is a complimentary breakfast with choices like eggs, biscuits and gravy, waffles, and multiple choices of cereals.

They have free breakfast which is good and also a 5:30 meal which they have upgraded since the last time we were there.

The included breakfast was also generous and fresh.

The breakfast, free snacks, free cocktails & free kid friendly dinner are all great perks!

Fantastic little fridge for holding snacks and drinks.

The breakfast was great and we were surprised to find out the hotel had a happy hour with complimentary snacks.

Great breakfast, evening snacks, cleanliness of guest room, and friendliness of staff!

Whilst the hotel describes it as snacks, they’re full meals for most people.

Amazing hotel with breakfast and snacks, free sodas, popcorn and a lot more.

Great breakfast, and they even have complimentary snacks and drinks in the afternoon!

The hotel description listed "evening snacks and drinks".

They offer 3 drinks a day for each 21+ adult during happy hour and have "snacks" which are really full dinners from 5 to 7.

The evening snack was nice; we had it one of the nights.

Room and all public areas spotlessly clean, staff are friendly and helpful, good breakfast and 5:30 kickback with free drinks and snacks is a real bonus, especially after a day at the parks.

Breakfast is great for an early start and the dinnertime snack will  help to keep growing children tided over for a return to the park.

Breakfast and snacks evening was perfect!

I like that they provide snacks and beverages in the evening (even

They also have fresh popcorn and an open soda machine.

Staff is very pleasant, rooms/bathrooms are spacious and clean, public areas inviting, free hot breakfast, free hot dinner, free soda and coffee available pretty much all day, fresh popcorn every evening.

With breakfast, dinner, cocktails and popcorn, soda and coffee available at no additional cost the value is just fantastic.

I love their free soda machine and their breakfast as well.

You can get free sodas all day and night if you want.

The 24/7 complementary sodas, water, coffee, and tea were the icing on the cake.

Soda, juice, and coffee are still available self serve as they have always been.

But, I am surprised how much I've enjoyed the soda fountain for Diet Coke and filtered water.

The blueberry muffins are delicious and the free popcorn and soda at night are both great perks.

A soda fountain was available to grab a refreshing beverage at any time.

..room is wonderful and clean, beds are comfy, outstanding breakfast and evening kick back nightly including 3 Happy Hour drinks, popcorn, coffee, tea and soda always available.

Free dinner including alcoholic beverages, free soda, coffee, tea, popcorn and breakfast.

Popcorn &  soda is available in the afternoon & into the evening in the lobby every day.

Breakfast and dinner included as well as adult drinks and soda and popcorn every night.

Free fountain soda and popcorn in the lobby

Free breakfast in the morning, free soda and popcorn from morning until 10 pm.

Complimentary evening drinks including soda and fresh popcorn.

It's nice to have access to a soda fountain  in the lobby during the day and free popcorn.

but when we asked for one they only had one of that type left and iam telling you we were the first people in line when it opened.Well returning to the room we got greeted by giant roaches running around sink countertop.

Like had to move to open the door and the sink was so tiny!

So for the entire weekend the toilet was leaking water in the bathroom.

Bathroom was showing signs of wear and needed a bit of TLC.

Additionally, the bathroom door is quite inconvenient as it is a very large obstacle, barely clearing the toilet and makes movement in the bathroom restricted.

Marks on most of the walls/carpets, shower grouting not the cleanest, towels small and quite thin, dripping noise from the toilet constantly.

but one is in the bathroom so not really used.

Cons:
-For the price, beds measure as "Full" not a standard "queen," so that is deceiving for two adults who weigh 150 or more after spending a long, tiring day at the parks
-For the HHN package that we spent more than $3200.00 for two nights, and we were gone for more than 12 hours from our room from 8am-8:30pm, maid service would of been nice and a replacement of our towels which we left neatly in the tub for maid service.

but the concierge text sent us to the wrong room
Tub would not drain (A message a day, fixed the last day of a 5 day stay)
Dated decor
Air was dry as heck in the room
Damaged artwork (people suck and stole drumsticks from the art?)

They sent a plumber who educated me on how to use a shower (I have 5 at home) and said it was normal.

Ripped off youtuber "Beardmeatsfood" took on kitchen sink challenge!

If there were one thing I could change about the HRH, I'd improve the lighting in the vanity area of the bathroom.

The service did not clean the room, they only left 5 towels, and a bag full of shampoo and coffee.

Not as nice as Portofino/rooms smaller, not as many amenities

I was half-expecting to be billed for toilet paper, given the situation.

Open q-tips not replaced by housekeeping.

Beds were uncomfortable, rooms needed redecorating and bathrooms need modernisation!

The lighting was not that great around either mirror – one was a backlight behind the mirror and a small overhead light, the other mirror was with the shower-tub and toilet – and it was overhead, just not that bright.

- Rooms are run down, need a revamp especially the bed sheets and bathrooms.

The rooms are tired and in need of renovation - bathroom in particular.

Distance to Universal Studios, city walk, and Island of Adventure is great, either a great walk or a quick boat ride on the water.

The ease of reaching Universal Studios, City Walk and Island of Adventures is a massive plus point as is the front of line ride access available with a stay here.

We always stay here because it's convenient for City Walk and the parks, the fast passes are always welcome and early admission is useful.

but I stood behind a woman talking to a staff member for 10 minutes about all the food options in City Walk while there was a massive queue behind us.

Accessing the park from the hotel was a breeze; you exit The Hard Rock at the 1st floor level and walk down the path, where either you stop and catch the Water Taxi that leaves you off right in front of VooDoo Donuts on City Walk, or continue on to a 5 minute walk to the hotel gate located right outside the Universal Studios entrance.

I would definitely recommend this hotel for close proximity to City Walk, Universal and IOA .

We skipped breakfast at the hotel and went to Starbucks at city walk, we also took a couple of meals at City Walk as there are a variety of restaurants there.

Its a close walk or water taxi ride to both of the Universal parks and City Walk.

It literally took our family less than 5 minutes to walk to the Universal City Walk, to access Universal Studios and Islands of Adventure.

-Water boat taxi is fast and super clean and I recommend going to city walk for the first time by boat at night.

The hotel is very convenient as there is a walkway through some very nice gardens along the river.You can also take the river boat to city walk.

Very convenient to City Walk, US and IOA.

Lots of energy, great pool and super close to Islands of adventure, city walk and universal  studios!

It is so easy and fast to access the City Walk and Theme Parks.

Hard Rock Hotel is closest by water taxi or walking path to Islands of Adventure, Universal Studios & City Walk therefore 0 wasted time getting to/from desired entertainment or resort. Easy-Peasy!

It was fun to take the water taxi to the parks and city walk.

Hard Rock Universal is the best place to stay if you want to be extremely close to the parks and City Walk!

The short walk and or ferry ride to city walk alongside the express passes and early park admission makes this hotel well worth it and superior to some of the other surrounding hotels.

The food is astronomically expensive- $7 for a bottle of water.

We stayed on the Club Level which costs more per day;

Not acceptable for the price you pay at the Hard Rock and the club level

This is a very poorly run hotel and not worth the money, they are basically stealing money from people expecting to pay over $500 a night for these rooms with terrible conditions and service.

My ratings are primarily based on club level expectations for that experience at that price point which is why they took a bit of a hit.

After also staying at the Royal Pacific twice (once pre covid and also January 23) we felt the club level there and general upkeep of the hotel is now better and if the price was the same we would probably choice Royal pacific.

It's notna cheap hotel and having to pay extra for self parking at the hotel parking lot makes no sense to me.

And they only way you could access music was to pay $9.99 per 24 hours for music - come on, this is the Hard Rock Hotel!

We didn’t eat at the hotel at all because it was way too expensive.

And as usual food and drinks in Emack & Bolio's Marketplace are totally overpriced.

My only complaint was we paid for a pool view and there was a giant tree that covered up the entire window.

Gotta love it when there is no good customer service at a hotel that you pay 800 dollars a night for!

but for the cost of my two night stay stay I should have had no worries or issues.

I have to say that without these it would not be worth the rate per night.

But for $400 per night when we checked in the phone didn’t work, there was a stain on the bed sheet and the room was just not worth the price.

Couldn’t add one more day to my package so had to pay standard rate for last night which was petty steep and because we booked our last night when we first checked in(ie, before we knew what we had gotten ourselves into,) we couldn’t change and go to another hotel.

We had rock royalty access and can not praise a particular staff member enough.

Rock royalty level- This felt like a letdown to previous visits.

Overnight stay at the Rock Royalty floor with the family.

The rooms are very spacious, we stayed in a junior rock star suite.

Also the rock memorabilia throughout the hotel is really incredible.

The Rock Royalty lounge does not disappoint with breakfast, afternoon snacks, happy hour, and bedtime desserts.

We walked around the Rock Shop, which for a hotel shop was pretty cool and had some good memorabilia on display.

Love the rock and roll 🎸 vibe everywhere and the friendliness of all the staff, it feels like a small hotel, we stayed at the club level and it was great to have complimentary drinks and food throughout the day.

The rock and roll memorabilia the hotel has are great, and the resort has a really high-end feel to it.

The hotel isn’t as Rock and Roll as they advertise, which could be a bonus.

Rock Royalty Lounge is a great place to relax.

The room we had was on the sixth floor.It was  adorned with rock star memorabilia.

The hotel itself is amazing with modern rooms and rock music blasted throughout the hotel.

The rock royalty rooms are great as you get free drinks and snacks at certain times of day

We stayed in the Rock Royalty area on the 7th floor in a Club King room.

I wouldn’t call this “Rock Star” service.

Top-notch customer service combined with a modern, energetic, rock and roll atmosphere made our family feel like VIPs all week.

Loved the live music and overall rock star theme.

however, it includes breakfast, snacks and drinks throughout the day, and heavy appetizers (usually enough for dinner) in the evenings along with beer/wine.

Lounge offerings were good in the morning, snacks were ok

We had Club Level rooms which were spacious and having the free snacks and drinks available throughout the day was perfect and time and money saving.

Anyway check in was easy, the room was spotless, the view from the room was spectacular, the club level room for snacks was handy.

We booked a club room and really liked the ability to have water, soda, coffee, snacks, light breakfast etc without having to pay.

Snacks were available in the afternoon, including popcorn, chips, cookies, granola bars, candy, etc.

The food was good, plenty of snacks and a happy hour is included for 2 hours - the staff member was wonderful !

The pool bar is okay for snacks and casual dinning

Buying anything on site is just silly prices so bring along your snacks, and alcohol, there was a small shop in the hotel which was Ok for lunch meals (big enough to share)

We had a Club Level and really appreciated the breakfast and snacks at tea time.

We stayed on the top floor where we received a constant supply of snacks, beverages and food throughout our stay.

We stayed at the Club Level and did enjoy the breakfast, snack and the evening offering.

The club level had perks with a continental breakfast in the morning, snacks early afternoon, appetizer foods in the early evening and bedtime dessert.

Emack and Bolios is great for ice cream and snacks.

Stayed on Club Level and it was worth the additional money as it offers continental breakfast daily, snacks in the afternoon, beer, wine and hors d'oeuvres early evening and desserts later evening.

The rock royalty rooms are good as you get continental breakfast in the morning and snacks all day plus water and pop and in the evening, you get beer and wine along with different things so you could skip dinner and just eat there.

Pro-tip bring all snacks and food into the parks.

The beds are comfy and the rooms are pretty good, we stayed on the Rock Royalty floor which includes access to the lounge, which provides a very good breakfast and complimentary snacks and drinks throughout the day.

The hotel is located within walking distance to CityWalk and Theme parks,

The location is amazing if you are looking for the theme park experience.

Pros:
-Check in was easy with "Page" and she was friendly and welcoming
-Love the walking distance to theme park, shortest of the hotels that offer the Express Unlimited Pass, so we skipped using the water taxi ride back most of the time as it was faster.

Great location to access Universal theme park.

It's still a great place to stay for access to the theme parks,

.staying at The Hard Rock Hotel automatically upgrades your tickets to fast pass on all the attractions apart from two at Universal studio theme parks.

The walk or boat  ride to citywalk  and theme park is convenient.

Main reason stayed at this hotel was closeness to the universal theme parks.

The rides and themes in the parks was amazing.

The Palm being a walk from the lobby is an added bonus and great for someone that likes an upscale theme park getaway.

Easy walk to the theme parks and so useful having the express passes included in the cost.

The early check-in, resort amenities, convenience to Universal theme parks, concierge services you name it every detail covered.

Recently stayed at this hotel when visiting both Universal theme parks .

Loved the five minute walking trail to universal theme parks.

One son went to the theme park and my other son and I went to the pool to play catch.

The staff in every area of the hotel from bell service, check-in, and cleaning were professional and polite, incredibly friendly and very knowledgeable about all aspects of the Universal theme parks.

Hard Rock (to me) is the best hotel in the theme park area of Central Florida.

Transport to both theme parks is via the little boat to city walk.

Easy access to Universal City Walk and the Universal parks.

Great Location for all things Universal with the walk, Taxi Boat and Shuttle bus all very convenient to get you to City Walk and all the Parks.

The boat shuttles to and from the parks/ city walk to Loews Royal Pacific made everything so easy and quick.

Both options mean security is a lot easier to do than facing the bustle of City Walk each morning.

It was a 7 min walk to the city walk, self parking was easy, Valet guys were helpful and friendly.

Lot of possibilities to dine in or go to the city walk.

The boat to City Walk is really helpful and we also enjoyed the short walk on occasion.

Excellent location, just a short walk from City Walk and the Parks.

If you are into walking for exercise, there is a nice walking path from the hotel to City Walk and the Parks.

Just take a quick walk to city walk or you can take a boat or bus if there is rain.

We used the garden walkway to get to and from City Walk (and the parks) many times.

This resort is amazing, close to Islands of adventure, City walk and universal studios.

It’s an easy walk to city walk and the parks and the express passes are a MUST!

The location to the theme parks and city walk is a huge plus point of this hotel along with the major benefit of express passes for the attractions.

We loved thecoation as it was ose in proximity to Universal theme parks and city walk.
