We were in room 1224 and as soon as we stepped into the room it had a very bad smell. And it looked like the room was never vacuumed because there was a bottle cap and pieces of tags on the floor. When we walked into the bathroom the smell was a lot worse and we found out that it was all the black mold in the shower and right outside it. It was in the drain in the shower too and it was not draining properly. When I took a shower I was in a puddle. We called down to the desk and told them about it and they said they would send someone up. I'm not sure they did because nothing was ever done. The next day, I went down to the desk again to complain about the bad smell of black mold. It is very dangerous to be breathing that in and there was no getting away from it in the room. They ended up sending some guys up to take a look at it and all they did was spray it. The spray smelled nice while it lasted but then the bad smell came back. You can't just scrub black mold up. You need to use bleach and wear a mask while doing it and I'm not sure they understood what I was saying because they didn't speak any English. So the next day we complained again and they asked if we wanted to switch rooms and we said we would prefer not to since we were half way through our vacation as it was. Nothing ended up being done with the mold spores. Another issue was the tv. It was snowy at times and would turn back on after turning off. I loved the balcony though!

The check in staff were great as were all the other staff. We had a bunch of small things that add up and that’s why only 3 stars. Got to our room and AC wasn’t working. Other people in our group has some mold in there bathroom, another one had a bad smell in there room. Only one bathroom by the pools. Can’t make reservations for the resturant’s on site. Washing floors in the middle of the day while people are waiting for restaurant’s. Was not a fan of the ramp going from the main building to where our room was especially with luggage. Pool and beach was beautiful. Italian and steak restaurant was very good. Activities person Mandy was excellent. We are all RIU members and had stayed at the new RIU palace Jamaica this past March and was expecting more. Not sure if we will be back.

The Riu Palace was recommended by two family members who visited in the past. I traveled with my husband and toddler this October. Upon arrival we were confused as to why there was not a working elevator in the Lobby. We later found out that the hotel is doing renovations. Although we were not disturbed by any loud construction, the layout of the hotel is extremely inconvenient with a child. Service is slow. Buffet is great. A la carte restaurants were ok but repetitive, they need more variety. We stayed in the “old” building and it is fair to say the rooms were a 2 to 3 star at most. NO samples for soap, shampoo etc, were provided. Getting a hold of the lobby for missing towels took several attempts and the service is super delayed. Not only is decor very outdated but the rooms have a really strange card detection system and horrible AC ventilation. The room felt very damp and cold the entire trip. This hotel claims to be family friendly but the music from a private wedding events AND their shows every night was extremely loud. I had to complain many times to notice a slight improvement. This made it impossible for my child to sleep. The cribs are OLD, hard and tiny. There are just two showers on the beach for hundreds of tourists visiting this resort. They are going to have to make MAJOR improvements for us to return. Management pretends to ask you how your experience is going, but it seems very rehearsed. This was no where near a 5 star experience but Aruba is beautiful!!

Our firsr room flooded, I suffered a back injury due to a fall during the water issue. We were finally swapped to a different room after complaining 4 times for our second room to have another issue with water coming from the floor. This was not a good experience. This stay was for my honeymoon and we did not enjoy our time. We felt very brushed off by staff regarding both issues.

Originally our room was on floor 0 however we requested to move by second day as that room was musty smelling. RIU happily accommodated our move up to floor 9. We had a pool view with oven view. Most rooms appear to have oven view as the buildings are spread apart well. Thank you RIU. The main building is being renovated as is part of another building however that did not impede our enjoyment of the property. Milano and Krystal specialty restaurants were our favorites. The Asian one was not. We easily secured a table during the second seating. Buffet had very broad offerings for breakfast. Hidden gem was the newer sports bar at the end overlooking the beach. We arrived Sunday and were able to watch both NASCAR and the Broncos game. I was surprised. Each morning we were down at the beach securing loungers under Palapa’s by about 7:45. They fill up pretty quick. Poolside bar was quick and efficient and the bartenders were very cheerful. We used the Renova Spa at the adults only RIU next door as the spa at our “family” resort was being renovated. I’d highly recommend as the value is much better there in Aruba compared to Jamaica or Mexico based on my opinion. Note even though we were on the “family” side we were never bothered by kids and we could use the adults only amenities as well. Overall good value for our first trip to Aruba.

While we did have partial ocean view, we also had Hilton construction view and noise, beginning at 6am daily...Expedia did not mention this. Also the Palace main building was under construction, with no elevators and 3 flights of stairs to lobby or walk further to elevators in 2 side buildings. No laundry facilities, even though listed as amenities (laundry pay service available). Finally, Room Credits not very useful or accessible at all, basically useless-very restrictive, causing you to spend money before getting minimal credit useage-very disappointed in this. The $590 room credit was hardly usable, and too restrictive! Please be more honest and upfront about these important features in future....I will not use Expedia again, unfortunately, even if they are Canadian.
