Just got back from a week all inclusive at Torre Dorada. On first impressions the hotel doesnt look too great - the top floor rooms aren't finished yet and there is no grand lobby as you walk in. The public areas however are very clean and we had a good view from our 6th floor room. It had 2 double beds, cable tv, a very powerfull air conditioner and a shower you could fit a football team into! You get bed linen and towels changed every day too which is great but the only things that were a bit annoying was that there are no tea/coffee making facilities in the room, the tv's have no remotes and the air conditioner is a bit loud but after a few tequilas you don't notice it.
The only real problem is the food. It's nearly always the same every day and its warm and tastless. We did eat here a few times but there's only so many hard potatoes you can eat! Try the pool bar for club sandwhiches/burgers etc. The bar in the hotel does lots of frozen cocktails - in lethal measures (watch out for the red tequila slammers!) and the barman is a real character too!
Maurice at the hotel works very hard and will take you on some wicked nights out and dont miss the day boat trip it's well worth it!
We heard of people moving hotels but we met some great people here and had a good laugh so it wasn't too much of a problem to put up with the food. The people made up for it! The hotel has no way influenced my decision on wether to return to Cancun - there is so much to do there you won't be in the hotel much. i'd go back to cancun again definately!
