We lived in the Palace section of the Royal Mirage and enjoyed it thoroughly. We stayed there with our 2 kids. Stay in the Arabian Court section of the hotel if you are not travelling with children as it has the best restaurants and bars. We will definately return to this hotel when in Dubai. Better than Burj al Arab... more

I had to stay at The Monarch during month of October 08 due to business meetings in Dubai, my agent was strongly recommending this hotel to me but I was not sure if I should try or not but I was really surprised with the quality and amazing service and value for money. (Just fantastic hotel) I do recommend it... more

We have just returned from a week at the Mina, and although we had a good time, and found the hotel a beautiful place to stay there was something lacking. The rooms are very comfortable, spacious with the most wonderful beds, huge flat screen TV, large bathroom with big shower, twin sinks and separate loo. We had room 408, a... more

This Hotel knows the meaning of the word Service, which it provides above Excellent . I have stayed at this Hotel twice (May 2006& June 2007) , the staff treated me like a VIP, and always made me Welcome which ever part of the Hotel I happened to be walking through. The waiters would always come and ask me if... more

We stayed at the Atlantis early in November and had a great time! Admittedly we had never been to Dubai before, but have travelled a lot. The staff could not have been more helpful, from the moment we stepped out of our taxi - we were checked in immediately, given a room upgrade and taken to our room where the... more

Havejust come back home after having a 4 day break in Dubai. stayed at the Hallmark Hotel in deira. The hotel was great. The staff in the hotel were friendly and helpful and most importantly, courtious at all times. Myself and my travel companion felt safe and well looked after during our stay. The standart twin room we occupied was... more

As you as you drive towards the Burj, you know its special. As soon as we got to the entrance, my car was taken (valet parking), and then began the adventure. .....WOW!!...what a place. Gigantic and overwhelming entrance, with delicious dates being offered. Feel free to take as many pics as you want. There are wonderful fish tanks all around... more

My Husband lived in this Hotel for over a year and found it very clean and comfortable, not quite a home from home but it had everything he needed. I visited regularly and was on my own most of the day, i felt completely safe and the staff were always happy to help and very cheerful and tried their best... more

This became the highlight of our trip to Duabi. We went on a late afternoon ride. The quad bikes are very easy to learn to use, and very stable. Soon my wife and I were zooming up and down the sand dunes. We did the 30 km ride, but they also offer overnight stay packages. And it only cost us... more

Spent 5 nights at the Royal Meridien last week. The hotel is completely surrounded on the land side by massive construction work 24x7 - huge concrete carcasses of high rise apartment buildings. The hotel is already dwarfed by other buildings and the view from the gardens/beach looking inland is of cranes and concrete ...... Theres a nearby newly built promenade... more

My husband and I spent a long time looking for a cheap place to stay in Dubai on a 3 night stop over from south east asia. The Al-Hijaz was the best deal we could find. We had arranged an early morning airport pick up via email. Although we couldn't find the person to pick us up initially, he was... more

I stayed at Atlantis for one night to celebrate my wifes birthday. I guess based on the Ad campaign we had high expectations but there are certain minimum levels of service one expects from a Hotel that charges $650 a night. Firstly, this hotel is too big and too impersonal to be termed 'exclusive'. We were given a room facing... more

Stayed at the Metro in September and I must say that if you are travelling on a tight budget and still desire comfort and a serene room, Metro is the place to stay. I arrived at midnight and rooms were easily avialable. Given it's location in the middle of active deira, I didn't expect much, but on getting into the... more

We stayed here for two periods recently one for 2 nights and the other for 5 nights. On both occassions we found the check in staff to be helpful and friendly and quick and efficent. On our second check in we were disappointed not to get a non smoking room but they organised room fresheners and made sure we were... more

We loved it. The "Dune Bashing" was probaly the highlight more

The good reviews have already said it all. There is nothing we could fault. We would go back in an instant and given the choice of 5* hotels in Dubai that really is saying something. The Pool service deserves special mention, it really was difficult to drag ourselves away from the pool some days, and we are not sun worshippers.... more

Having had to move from another hotel as a result of poor conditions what a joy it was to arrive at the Hilton. The front desk manager, Damir Kartal, set the tone for our stay. We had a room on the executive floor and it was pleasure all the way. Breakfast in the executive suite, all day light refreshments, afternoon... more

Stayed here for 5 nights mid October on bed and breakfast basis. Just loved this hotel and location and would recommend to anyone. This hotel did have the WOW factor for me as we arrived with all the palm trees covered in lights - it just felt special and relaxing. Loved the room. This was very spacious and comfortable. Great... more

I was a little anxious about going to this hotel having read mixed reviews on this website however it had been booked through Virgin Holidays by a friend so I kept fingers crossed. To set the scene we were travelling as a group of girls looking for some winter sun, low cost relaxation. We got an amazing deal with Virgin... more
