Hi All,

Booked for the Rui Cancun in Mexico. Although I have read the reviews and they all seem fantastic - barring the odd one!! Could anyone suggest the 'better' rooms to have, for view etc......

Many Thanks,

Joe

February will be before the American's Spring Break so you'll definitely have less rowdy drunk American teenagers than you would get in March/April. The American students also have a Summer Break in early July.

You don't say what age your children are ... I have a 16yr old/12 yr old but can't imagine taking them to stay in Cancun. Beaches are great but the lifestyle is more geared to the party crowd! Some of the hotels on the Riviera Maya down the coast from Cancun have some fab children's facilities and they are nearer to places the kids might enjoy such as Xcaret and Xel-Ha.

Hi all,

Could anyone please suggest the best rooms to ask for at this hotel, having read various reviews referencing the 'smell' in some of the rooms I'm keen to avoid this. I've read that the 'east' wing gets the sun in the morning period and that the rooms on this side don't have the smell (or don't smell as much)!!! I'll be more than greatful if anyone could advise.

Many Thanks

Joe

Hi
I am travelling to the Riu Cancun on the 27th May and we have got friends staying the the Riu Yucatan at Playercar. I was wondering whether if anyone can tell me if with us staying the RIu Cancun at Canun can we use the facilities at the Riu Yucatan as we are part of the same chain.

I would really appreciate it if anyone can help me.

Thanks :D :D :D

I have stayed in the Rui Palace in Playacar, and you can use the other 3 rui hotels in Playacar, but if you stop in any of the others you cant use the Rui Palace. In my opinion playacar is a lot nicer than Cancun but that is only my personal opinion.

No, in Playacar it's the Tequila, Playacar and Yucatan that can use each other's facilities. As far as I'm aware if you stay at the Riu Cancun it's just that hotel's facilities that you can use. Bear in mind also the distance between Cancun and Playacar if I remember correctly is around 50 minutes- so you're not exactly next door to each other.
