“Overall ok”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 3 January 2012

Reading the reviews on tripadvisor prior to our stay my expectations were, to say the least, low! We spent 4 nights at Nihal and it is for sure a budget hotel but it works. The room was quite big but definately in need of a renovation. You could see paint stains on the walls and some of the klinkers were cracked and so on. Beds were hard and music from the nightclub on floor 1 could be heard even though we stayed at floor 5. The TV belongs to the 80's and the reception was terrible. The breakfast is a complete joke, to not pay for it. I hade a piece of bread with some marmelade the rest was some kind of vegetarien food I had never seen before. The swimmingpool area is almost as bad as the breakfast.

Staff were polite. The location is great and its really easy to catch a cab outside the lobby. One thing that I love with Dubai is the taxi prices - it is almost for free!

To sum it up - You get what pay for and for Nihal hotel that means an ok stay nothing more!

“A nice place to stay”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 8 August 2011

I stopped by in Dubai for a visit and a co-worker suggested this hotel. It's not bad, but I was put on the 2nd floor and the disco's was blasting dancing music most of the night till 2 am. Taxi's all over, Chinese restaurants on every other block, local market had all necessities, pharmacies blocks away, I went on the Desert Safari tour, met some really cute college girls from Iran and Russia. Dubai was a fun place to visit. Very safe place to be.

Room Tip: stay way from the 2nd floor, you'll be up all night with dancing music

“Hotel assigned to us by a tour operator for an offroading experience - next time round we get to choose !”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 25 April 2011

Staff service was unimpressive to say the least, rooms were large but no daylight, bathroom not too clean - overall a dull place to stay in Dubai.

“Spacious rooms, good location, Punjabi food”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 28 February 2011

I stayed at this hotel as part of Lions Clubs International group from Amritsar. The hotel rooms are spacious, but service was poor, may be because of large group staying there. Restaurants serve good Punjabi food, but are cramped. Rsetaurants serve as night club/descotheque at night-they have four different in 4 different rooms-including Indian, Russian. Rooms are reasonably clean. Tolietteries are just ordinary.
