I have been to Dubai many times but this was the first time I spent anytime in the Al Barsha area. Normally I am only in town for a few days, but with 9 days on this trip I decided I wanted to be near the Marina and I was looking for a good price. I found both of them... More

Stayed there for a few weeks. The staff simply does not care. If it happened and you forget a belonging in the room after you check-out simply forget it! Nobody from the staff takes any responsibility for anything! Also the laundry service they are using is crap. I had several of my clothes damaged even teared and of course the... More

As this was our first trip to Dubai I was unsure where to stay for our 5 day stay there. Originally we were planning to stay either on the Palm Jumeirah or Jumeirah beach but settled on the Star Metro as it appeared very close to Mall of the Emirates. We arrived late at night from London and our transfer... More

Rooms were clean and spacious, and the location was convenient to Mall of the Emirates/Metro. However: 1. After a four-and-a-half hour drive from Muscat, it took more than 30 minutes to check in, even though we had a credit-card confirmed and guaranteed booking. 2. It took an additional 15 mintes after check-in for the extra bed to be brought in,... More

We booked this apartment with some reservations because of the location, as when we have previously stayed in Dubai, we have been more central. These apartments are beautiful, they are well maintained and I would say that they are without doubt four star English standards. The only thing we missed was a swimming pool. The apartments are only a few... More

We stayed in this hotel and left 3 golden-diamond rings in the bathroom. During check-out time they told us everything was fine. After couple of hours I realised that my rings were left there. When I called the receptionist and asked about the case he was unhelpful and rude and said that nothing was found. Finally we were contacted the... More

We stopped over for 3 nights with 3 young children (5,3,1) and 3 adults from Auckland to London. We had a great deal for 2 double rooms and I was more attracted by its close proximity to Emirates Mall where I knew we can eat, entertain the kids and spend our time enjoying our limited time in Dubai. We arrived... More

We stayed at the Barsha for three nights for an Emirates Airlines stopover on our way to Kuala Lumpur. Be aware that not all taxidrivers can find this place. But it's close -walkable- to the Emirates Mall, so good location, although there is still a lot of construction going on around the hotel, which was noisy at times. The only... More
