“Very average 4 star Dubai experience. you can do much better in this city!”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 12 March 2011
2
people found this review helpful

I stayed at this hotel for three nights. it was pretty much a last minute deal, so ....
i consider myself a very easy going person, i can easily be satisfied about the place i am staying at so long at it doesn't cause me discomfort in any way and as long as the staff and service are good i can forget about other faults of the place.
now about Hallmark hotel.....
well, i try to keep it short. the gist of it is that it's not a very special place. a very average 4 star hotel in Deira area (4 star hotels in Deira are very similar in the kind of services they give you, what makes them better or worse is the quality)

good things about it: the food was very good for my taste, specially the breakfast buffet.
average sized and clean pool on the roof. good for cooling off when you arrive.

bad things: cleanliness was not perfect. i could find spots on my pillow cases and bath towels (not dirty spots, you know... the kind that stays after washing). and they also don't change the sheets when they clean your room (only change them when you check in)

another thing, they don't put slippers in the bathroom. i asked for a pair and they said i should pay 10dhs (3 dollars) for a pair. i have seen this in Dubai before, i wonder what's with them and bathroom slippers?!?! they value it so much!! :)

good or bad (depends on you): the hotel doesn't have a night club. good for me since i don't like the noise at night. (another thing is at the time of my visit there was a construction project going on at the opposite side of the street. not very bothering, but a bit of noise in the morning.)
also, it is a dry hotel. no alcohol is served in the hotel. (and there's no mini bar also)

anyway, i am sure for the same value or only a bit more you can get a better hotel. even in the same class and area which cares just a little more about the way they run their hotel. because that's all it takes!

hope it was useful

They wanted to charge me for something that I never ordered and on one other occassion they overcharged me for serving me with a coffee which had been made with fresh milk while I ordered the same coffee the day before for different price.Can you believe that they charge you for the same item with different prices and their excuse is that it had been made with fresh milk.

“good hotel in city centre”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 5 February 2010
2
people found this review helpful

good hotel with clean rooms, located in heart of Dubai city centre, Deira, which is very close to almost everywhere including 10 min to the international airport.
But during night time, the area will be "busy" as it turns into "gentlemen hotspot". So it is recommended if you are travelling with your family including your children, choose another area as Deira area is not a right choice... it is a good area, but it is not suitable for children.

“Good time at the Hallmark”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 19 November 2008
1
person found this review helpful

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 spacious and was very clean and well equipped with kettle and cups so that we could make a drink when we wanted. The bathroom was very clean indeed and well stocked with complimentary toiletries etc if you have forgotten to bring your toothbrush!
Dubai is not so hot this time of year (only about 28 degrees centigrade) so it was so much pleasant to walk around the city. Air conditioning was available in the hotel room and in public areas of the hotel as well. The hotel is located just off Al Rigga Road, the main food street in Deira. You can eat any type of cuisine you desire, though be prepared for the prices as Dubai is not cheap! There is a shopping mall located less than 5 minutes from the hotel which for me, was excellent! Dubai creek and the Jumera beach side of Dubai is a small bus or taxi journey away. The hotel is ideally located for most attractions. If you get the chance, try the Big Bus company open top bus tour of Dubai. We pre-booked this trip on expedia at the time we booked our hotel and flights and got a good discount dong it this way. We got on the bus at the Deira City Centre Mall. It stops at all the main tourist attractions and you can hop on or off at any time.

  • Liked — The location-close to all the places you must absolutely must see in Dubai
  • Disliked — Hard to find a taxi
