We stayed 12 nights from 8/10/08. We had read some adverse comments but found them to be without foundation. It is an excellent hotel, an oasis of comparitive peace fairly near the city centre but with noteworthy restaurants, beach, pools, water features and a very friendly staff - all at a reasonable price for Dubai. We stayed in standard rooms... more

Just back from a 5 night stay and we had a great time, never been to Dubai before but were given the opportunity to upgrade to a junior suite for an additional £30 which was well worth it, separate area to chill, read etc a bigger bathroom and a walk in wardrobe. Staff were all very attentive and couldn't do... more

We were upgraded to a three bedroom suite having paid for a two bedroom suite. There is a lot of building work going on in the area but once you get through the front doors it is five star luxury all the way. Fabulous building, friendly and efficient staff. Only downside was the lifts take ages and staying on the... more

not the best hotel i have ever stayed in.access with a buggy was difficult as no lifts and lots of steps and stairs.getting a taxi was stressful in itself and the area all around seemed very claustrophobic and well worn by people...room quality was only average for the price.find that dubai boasts 5 star but does not walk the walk... more

Be careful with the people who works in the hotel, this is the first time I go to a resort in Dubai and I have problem, maybe It is near to the beach but this is the worse one, in dubai all the resorts are incredible except this one. If you have another chance go to another, with better services. more

We chose this hotel for its more central location between the city and beach, as we wanted a beach resort but didn’t fancy being so far away from the attractions of the city as some of the Jumeirah beach hotels were. Our standard room was not really a 5 star room and could do with being updated but nevertheless was... more

After looking at working in South Africa for a few months I decided to detour Dubai on the way back to England. I found this hotel and thought it looked nice. After reading the reviews on here I was rather dubious but thought I'd give it a go. I contacted the hotel direct and was quoted a great half board... more

Having read some of the reviews of this resort, I was slightly apprehensive, despite the fact that my sister (who is based in Saudi) had stayed there on several occasions, and was happy to recommend it. We chose this hotel partly for its central location between the city and beach, and were perfectly happy with it as an easy point... more

I 100% agree with the previous review - how this place got a 5 star rating is beyond me. It is 3 star at best. We too were limited for a place to stay as we booked at short notice. We paid ax extremely high rate and thought, well it's 5 star so it must be worth it. WRONG. While... more
