Dubai Hoteller i Downtown Dubai

Just the location, that's about it. I stayed in the apartments tower, even though my booking had been for a room in the hotel ("suite"). By far the worst stay I've had in Dubai, and I've been there many times. There is no chance this hotel is rated 5 stars, it's fraudulent or old and needs to be updated. The hotel lacks energy, lacks a buzz, the bar is packed with hookers, TVs don't have the right channels (Aljazeera/Bein football ones to show crucial Champions League games), the restaurants are on the 24th floor and look like a 3-star hotel's restaurants at best. Their seating and tables are old, and doesn't look luxurious at all. Let's put it this way - I'd be embarrassed to take a colleague there for a business lunch. The hotel itself is dark from the inside, despite a ton of sunlight and unblocked view on all sides. Inside the rooms, the carpet was smelly (probably old) and the bed/cupboards were old with scratches and all. There was barely an office desk to do any work on, and the kitchen was too big for the place. Overall, this hotel is equivalent to a nice 3 star in the US / Europe. I didn't mind the policy to allow gents to take "guests" (girls) upstairs because that's the only consolation one deserves to get for staying at this crapchute.

Big room Bad smell in the room

near exhibition center,close to downtown,near train station. old furniture,specially sofas,windows can not be opened,result in smiley smoking floor.

Direct access to Dubai Mall

Smell of the rooms and coridors good swiming pool nice birthday and hony moon decoration arrangements free The towels was not soft at all , in very bad touch to the skin very expensive according to the room size and furniture quality ad access to the mall ,, elevators very slow , very dramatice bad view over looking the metal roof of the dubai mall , small lobby bad lighting for the room , spot light in top of the bed , yes you can turn them off , but still they look bad not luxury feels like 4 star level of dubai driling and maintinace was more than what they told us in the letter paper from the manager

The towels wasn't so clean

The fact that it is connected to the Dubai Mall is a great Plus.. The hotel is very new hence the staff managing the hotel had little exerience on how to deal with guests, and many of them didn't speak neither English nor the local language (Arabic) fluently. The furniture was custome made and was low on finishing quality. The connecting corridor between the hotel and the mall wasn't finished, and we had to walk through the hot/humid indoor parking to get to the mall while the decoration workers were finishing the corridor. The hotel had no taxis waiting at the entrance like other respectable hotels, we had to wait 25 minutes to get a taxi. Taxi drivers didn't know about it, and got confused when asked to drop us at the hotel. The room didn't have a floor plan with emergency exit hung on door

room space reception, service approach, response time, breakfast too expensive, asked for an extra bed 3 nights in a row but no reply

Quoted a lower rate for single occupancy, but was charged for double occupancy and despite speaking with a manager, issue was still not resolved. He claimed he would and get back to me, and never did. Very unprofessional front desk staff plus bad management makes this rather nice hotel undesirable. Will not return.
