I've travelled to Dubai several times and am famaliar with lower priced hotels there. This hotel should have been in the same league, but was worse as it seems the most basic things are not given attention. The laundry sheet clearly mentions (like in most hotels) that laundry given before 8.00 am (in another place it said 9.00 am) will... More

Do not book or stay at this hotel! One of the worst hotels I have ever stayed in. The noise from the bar/disco kept me awake till after 3am every night. Breakfast was a nightmare as everyday I had to ask for simple things like cereal to be replenished! Staff were uninterested and the dinner menu was pointless as they... More

The hotel stands alone, away from most of the attractions of Dubai. This means that you pretty much have to take a taxi anywhere you might want to go (though, because there isn't much around it, sometimes it's a wait to get a taxi). It isn't near the metro, and there aren't dining options nearby. They do offer a restaurant... More

Best Thing about this hotel is its location. Situated in the heart of dubai (bur dubai) this hotel is merely a few kms away from all the tourist spots.. Be it the dubai creek or the dubai mall.. Also nice indian eating joints nearby.. All in all you would get a comfortable 3 star stay.. Mot much luxurious though.. But... More
