I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at this hotel. The staff were friendly and very helpful in. Situation transportation and learning about the area. The location is a great area with affordable local restaurants with more foreign cuisine just the other way. There is so much to explore in the area including an outdoor market with local vendors. The facility was clean and they came in every and cleaned up after me. I highly recommend this stay and you can’t beat the price.

Comfortable boutique hotel in downtown Cancun with hacienda vibes, featuring a courtyard with a pool and Jacuzzi. The many trees provide shade and a habitat for various birds and other wildlife. It's almost like being in your own private forest. The rooms are clean and cozy, and have refrigerators. Breakfast is delicious, with Mexican specialties and American favorites. The staff are friendly and helpful. It's close to the ADO bus station, Parque las Palapas, Mercado 23, lots of great restaurants and various shopping. I highly recommend it!

The room was very clean and the staff were welcoming. What I learned at check-in was that there is a no alcohol policy. I wasn't in Cancun to party but I do enjoy a beer or drink by the pool. I stayed 4 nights and on the 3rd night I only had a 5 minute shower because the water slowed down to a trickle. Also if you go out in the evening the gate may be shut so you have to wait on someone to open it. Then when you come back there is a button to push. It was very relaxing though and the A/C and ceiling fan kept it cool.

In my room the AC remote was permanently secured to the wall (near the AC unit and away from the bed, as well as other areas in the room) with no screen light to adjust the setting.
Alas, I had a relaxing stay and the staff is making a special effort to have guests feel welcomed.

Hotel El Rey del Caribe is my new favorite hotel! I stayed one night and felt very sad to leave. It's the perfect oasis in the hustle and bustle of Cancun. Our room was clean with comfortable beds and linens, and very well equipped for a short or long stay, the pool was delightful as was the outdoor shower, the gardens were lush and beautiful, the complimentary breakfast was decent and appreciated, and the service was good! I truly wouldn't change a thing, and I hope this thoughtfully designed hotel stays the same for a very long time to come. I can't wait to return! There are many coffee shops and restaurants within walking distance and the proximity to the ADO bus station is very handy. It's a relatively quick ride to the airport as well, about 15-20 minutes depending on traffic. 10 out of 10!

The room was very clean and well equipped with a comfortable bed but smelled very moldy.

The woman that checked us in was very matter-of fact, not really friendly but did show us what we needed to know.

Breakfast starts at 7:30 but we needed to leave then to catch our flight so we missed it. We mentioned it to the check in lady but she shrugged it off, other places will accommodate for that with something small to go. They did have coffee with to go cups.

The courtyard is amazing like a little jungle and was the reason we wanted to stay. We enjoyed hanging in the hammocks in the evening. The pool added to the charm but we did not swim. Unfortunately, there is no quiet time so people we in the courtyard late into the night- kids crying and yelling and people laughing and talking loudly. The doors to the rooms are solid but there is no noise insulation so we had a hard time falling asleep.

Location is great- walkably close to a grocery store, Mercado 23, and restaurants. With that said, Adhara just down the road has an amazing breakfast that starts at 7:00 and was about the same price, maybe a bit more but would be our choice next time.

Lovely property that is eco-conscious. It’s smaller than it appears in photos so there’s little privacy in the common areas, if you value that. Pool also tiny. The room was large and very comfortable but not too stylish! (Some natural wood and stone elements would help). Yoga studio was stunning, barrel vaulted ceiling tho the one class we attended was no fun (Kundalini yoga, anyone? All breath training.) there are other classes apparently. Good japonese restaurant just steps away!

Beautiful hotel with high standard of cleanliness and service. Free breakfast was a big plus.. bIG comfy bed.They held my bags before and after check in/out free of charge. Great location, removed from downtown chaos but still very close to bus station.
Only issue was that Expedia Ad mentioned a got tub/spa which was a big part of my reason for choosing this hotel. In reality, the hot tub was as only for use of massage clients( even though it was connected to the guest pool).
Oh also a neighing dog (not in the hotel) barked obnoxiously from 6am on, bot their fault, but a huge drawback as I got little sleep.

This is a nice hotel, and the breakfast is simple but well made. Bottled water is cheap at the desk which is nice. The pool area is very shady, so if lounging in the direct sun is a priority for you then I don’t think this hotel is appropriate. The wifi did not work well in our room, and the cell service wasn’t great in the stone walls either. The staff were very accommodating of our request for an accessible room, however the room we got was on one of the outer street side walls and traffic and street noise was quite loud. The hotel and garden itself are very quiet and peaceful.

This is a female solo traveler review. A wonderful place in a great location! Lush and green, with a large, clean, cute room. There is a focus on accessibility here - in the hotel with an elevator and elevated walkways, and in the neighborhood for wheelchair access. I felt very safe on my own, even walking at night. Juan S. at the front desk spoke perfect English and gave me suggestions of where to go - the best taco place is down the street, and I walked to a huge New Year's Eve celebration. I went to Nomads, right down the street, for cheap beers and their cool, fun rooftop bar and then came back for a quiet, restful sleep.This is a perfect location in downtown for excursion companies to directly pick you up.
