This was my 15th trip to Playa del Carmen in the last four years, but my first stay at Riu Palace Mexico (RPM). I have stayed multiple times at Riu Palace Riviera Maya and Riu Playacar. RPM is a wonderful hotel. The rooms are large with a couch for sitting, and a 32" lcd Sony TV. The air conditioning worked... more
We spent four very pleasant nights at the Riu Palace Mexico from October 27 to the 31st. Yes, there is a musty odor that permeates the entire lobby area and inside corridors as well as our room, but I attribute this to the climate and not to upkeep. Our room was spotless as were all areas of the resort. And... more
Just got back from Riu with spouse and friends. This was my 14th trip to Mexico, 4th in Riviera Maya. Always a great time. The hotel is beautiful. I personally prefer an open-air lobby and restaurants but the lobby is absolutely gorgeous and the main dining room was lovely with better than average food. I did not care for the... more
This was our 4th visit to this property in the last 5 years. We paid extra for a suite which was very nice with a flat panel TV, liquor dispenser, walk-in closet, very large king bed, and french provincial decor. The beach is in very good shape, and everything is clean. The ocean was the most beautiful blue I have... more
This was wonderful and the staff was great. We had 28 people and everyone was treated wonderfully. Food was great. The Fusion restaurant was my favorite. Pool and all was good. more
I came home from my second trip here on monday, and miss it already! I love this hotel. I travelled with my mum to mexico for 2 weeks. The weather was fantastic, the hotel was fantastic and everything about it is fantastic. The reception staff greet you with a drink, and talk you through details of restuarants bars etc while... more
This was my second time at Riu Palace Mexico. Since my first visit in 2004, the hotel has gone downhill. The food was mediocre at best--and some of it was not edible at all. The food used to be really good. (That might explain why the price hadn't changed much in 5 years--lower quality food and drink.) The beach was... more
I would recommend this beach front Property for an Honeymoon, Anniversary etc. I love the cleaness of Hotel and the Hospitality was great as well. The speciality restaurants were good although i prefably prefer the buffet at Chillis Steak House there was more of an variety. The rooms were always restocked with Beverages such as Liquor, Soda, Water, and the... more
This was our first trip to Mexico. So glad we choose riu palace mexico. What a beautiful place. The resort is kept spotless, the staff go out of their way to pamper you,the beach is beautiful,white sand as far as you can see. Anice view of Cosmel across the water. The food was ok. The ice cream was very good.... more
We have stayed at this hotel 6 previous times. We got a good deal due to the "swine flu" panic. This was our first time back in a couple of years. The hotel looked a little more run down. We think that this hotel needs to be the next Riu to be remodeled. The staff continues to be excellent. The... more
