“Consistent”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 6 February 2012

It's been years since I stayed here. The last time I swore I wouldn't come back. Desperately wanting to get out of town and on the beach I made the journey again. Funny how times change but this Hyatt doesn't seem to. Don't get me wrong... you can't beat the location but how is it they still don't seem to get it would be a good thing to have one of the 2 pools for adults only? Kids are great but they're everywhere. Slow checkin and lazy staff still plague this Hyatt. Subash at the pool bar was a welcome change. He went out of his way to make drinks and bring them to us in spite of the bar being closed... and covered with kids.

“Really nice hotel, pity about the rooms”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 19 January 2012

Nice reception, lovely friendly staff. Great restaurant for dinner and breakfast.
Nice gym. Nice pool area. Excellent rating for these areas.
The rooms we had are really old and tired. Chipped and broken floor covering and furniture
Shower over the bath with mouldy peeling celings. Poor rating for the rooms.
The rooms need a serious revamp as they are definitely not Hyatt standard.

“Expensive Accommodation”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 9 January 2012
2
people found this review helpful

Hotel is located in a far location from the city but it is beside nice beach. No free Wifi in the hotel rooms/Lobby(excluding the Kampung Restaurant) and LAN cable in the room also to be paid at per minute rate. Management has to review the policy. Rooms looks pretty old and the Spa here offers some massage services nd find the price is little bit expensive but hope they provide good service and it requires advance booking.
Its good to book the hotel from internet as the price was better when compared with across the counter rates.
Had a good experience that they did not charge for printing my flight ticket.
At the Kampung restaurant met with some problem with Wifi and the girl helped to solve the issue by discussing with the IT team after I insisted to her that the Wifi Router needs to be reset.
It took about 20mts to wait for a taxi.

“Poor and a discredit to Hyatt”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 27 December 2011
4
people found this review helpful

Can only echo many of the comments below. The hotel is 3 star (at best); rooms are very shabby; many bits and pieces not working. Beach is equally shabby and unkempt in sections for hotel. Beach seats worn, broken and dirty. TV selection abysmal - assuming you can get good reception; 1 movie channel (Star). No international papers even in Club lounge. Club lounge amenities almost non-existent. Barring breakfast and early evening snack - during the day a cup of tea/coffee drink + cookie is it.

Club section not especially separate from the others. One reviewer described hotel as "child friendly" - what that means is swamped by noisy families and screaming kids everywhere.

Service people are well intentioned but just cannot cut it. Maintenance is clearly a loosing battle.

Kuantan is utterly charmless and devoid of anything to do (play golf?). Heavy traffic.

Noisy revellers outside 2 nights running at 12.15am and then 4am in swimming area. In 2nd case letting off loud fireworks.

Internet quality variable - sometimes OK but sometimes so slow system hangs.

If cannot be done properly Hyatt should get out of the business as all this does is destroy Hyatt's reputation.

Been once: never go back.
