I recently stayed at Sun City Hotel for my birthday celebration and unfortunately the service throughout the property was extremely disappointing. Pool Service:
The pool service was unacceptable. We waited up to an hour just to be attended to, and in some cases our orders never arrived at all. When trying to call waiters, we were repeatedly told it was their time to go home. Staff also mentioned they do not serve certain seating areas because customers previously ran away late at night — which should not be the burden of paying guests. Even after finally placing an order, no one returned to check on us. If we wanted to order again, we had to wait another hour to get someone’s attention, followed by an additional 45 minutes to an hour for the order itself. There was no follow-up service at all. Restaurant Service (including Hard Rock Cafe):
At Hard Rock Cafe, we sat for 20 minutes before being offered a menu. We then waited again for someone to take our order, while staff stood around chatting or using their phones. After serving food, staff left quickly without asking if we needed anything further, and we never saw them again. This pattern of inattentive service was consistent. General Hotel Staff Conduct:
Staff members frequently served guests while on their phones, which appeared unprofessional. We requested an iron and waited an extended period without clear communication on whether it would arrive. Even when items were handed to us, staff remained on their phones. Check-In & Check-Out Experience:
Check-in lacked basic hospitality. After receiving our room cards, no one explained hotel services or facilities — we had to figure everything out ourselves. When our car keys were taken at arrival, we had to ask whether we would receive a ticket corresponding to our vehicle details for security purposes. We were told our keys would be returned to us, which never happened. We eventually had to go and fetch them ourselves due to poor communication. At check-out, we were told only one driver was on duty and were instructed to fetch our own vehicle. No assistance was offered, not even during the rain. There was no ushering or basic courtesy expected from a hotel of this standard. Overall, the service lacked professionalism, attentiveness, and communication. For a destination of this reputation, the experience was far below expectation.
