Top Dubai Desert Hotel Reviews
Millennium Airport Hotel Dubai
"Todo perfecto!"
Hotel Riu Dubai Beach Resort - All Inclusive
"Staff are so helpful and so kind"
Atlantis, The Palm
"Staff are friendly and really helpful. At dinner staff are fast to clear tables and keep drinks flowing. We stayed half board and both selections were outstanding. The biggest pastry selection I’d ever seen. Dinner was excellent. All food was fresh and replenished quickly."
Millennium Place Marina
"We have stayed here multiple times. It is convenient, close to the metro DMCC and walking distance to the beach JBR. Very easy to get to using the Metro from the Airport Terminal 3. The staff were very friendly and helpful. We booked a club room (which we have in the past) however I was a bit disappointed with this service. Previously the Club room was a separate room, but this time the facility was provided in the common Jam Jars restaurant. This itself was not a problem but the food option was limited to 2 choices off a limited menu. The service was also limited in time between 6:00 pm and 8:00pm. The Club Room facility is well below the standard of other Hotel Chains that we have stayed with. In saying that I would stay here again based on the convenience but would need to reconsider booking a Club Room."
Radisson Blu Hotel Dubai Waterfront
"Good location. Excellent staff. Spacious, comfortable rooms."
Le Meridien Dubai Hotel & Conference Centre
"Close to airport, accommodates foreigners, spa, pool, gym and restaurants on location. Car service for additional fees"
Taj Dubai
"I’ve stayed many times at this property. There attention to detail is exceptional, especially your requirements at breakfast and through your stay."
The First Collection Marina, Dubai, a Tribute Portfolio Hotel
"Great helpful staff, love the early check in and late check out option. Most likely use again"
Al Khoory Executive Hotel
"The service was amazing, thank you"
