My boyfriend and I came back last week from 2 weeks in Cancun having had a brilliant time. Apart from the excellent location it was the diverse mix of the hotel guests that really impressed us. From groups of college kids, honeymooners, families, groups of friends to old couples, Mexicans, Americans, Canadians and the Brits, the Riu catered for everyone.... more

We flew out of ORD and used a company called Park-n-Jet. They made parking easy and would use them again. American Airlines did not cause any problems and was just fine. Transportation to the hotel was easy to book at the airport but would of been better to book on orbitz. It would of been the same price and less... more

A group of 4 stayed there during the 1st week of May 2008. I had read many reviews prior to booking the Riu Cancun and really didn’t know what to expect because the reviews were all over the board. I know the Mexican Hotel rating system is on a 6-star scale, but to even call the Riu Cancun a 3-star... more

We have just returned from a week's stay at the Riu Cancun & wished we had booked another week. The staff were always friendly & prompt, from waiters to maids to front desk. The food was a delight & we never struggled to find something we liked, we ate at both the Japanese & Brazillian restaurants, less impressed with the... more

This is a quality hotel. The rooms are large, comfortable and well equipped. The meals are really good at all times. The best thing about the hotel is the friendly staff who can't do enough for you. We reported one night about 10p.m that our air conditioning wasn't working expecting it to be fixed the next morning. 10 minutes later... more
