Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. The rooms were spacious with a balcony offering stunning views, but there were issues with cleanliness, as the floor was untidy and filled with sand. The service was friendly, but they did not handle complaints well. The location was a bit distant and not easily reachable, taking away from the poshness advertised. The dining options were lacking in value, with limited choices for breakfast. However, the facilities were adequate for a comfortable stay.
My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The rooms were a bit moldy but had a fabulous balcony overlooking the polo fields. However, the room was too hot as the AC was not working properly, and I had to repeatedly complain about the missing shower pipe to the reception. The service, especially the in-room dining service, was excellent with well-trained and friendly staff who go the extra mile, but there were delays and some staff seemed unfamiliar with the hotel's facilities. The location, although good for a quiet weekend or business trip away from the busy city life, was far from Dubai's main attractions, requiring expensive transportation. The dining experience needs improvement, as the food quality was below par with limited options. Despite these shortcomings, the facilities were adequate, offering some comfort during my stay.
The hotel room had some issues with the A/C not working properly and the maintenance needs improvement. However, the outdoor seating area was enjoyable. The smell of food in the corridors and noise were bothersome. The service was nice and prompt but lacked attention to detail. The location was not private, and the hotel was far from the downtown area. The dining experience had good food variety but faced issues with reservation.
My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. The service was exceptional with friendly and helpful staff like Osama making our stay memorable. However, the room had a cleanliness issue with dusty surroundings and a disappointing birthday setup despite paying extra. The location was a bit far but good for those wanting a quiet getaway. The dining experience was a mix of highs and lows with some delicious options but also cold and oily dishes.
The hotel had its ups and downs. The rooms weren't that great in terms of cleanliness, but they looked beautiful and were comfortable. The amenities left a lot to be desired, especially with no welcome amenities even after paying for a birthday setup. The service was a mix of kindness and professionalism, but there were instances of being ignored. The location was excellent with a view of the polo field, but some privacy concerns arose from the neighboring villas. The dining experience fell short of expectations for a 5-star hotel.
My stay at the hotel had its highs and lows. The location was convenient for my visit to Hamdan sport complex, but it lacked nearby entertainment options. The rooms were not as clean as I expected, especially the dusty floors. The service was friendly overall, although there were missing amenities in the bathrooms. The dining experience, although limited, was quick and the food quality was good.
I found the hotel to have a mixed experience. The rooms had a bit of a musty smell and were dusty, but the balcony view overlooking the polo fields was fabulous. The service was a bit inconsistent, as they took my car but didn't return it in the morning; however, the staff was very nice and upgraded us to a higher room category promptly. The location, though a bit far from my house, was still worth it, with friendly staff and a well-stocked mini bar. The dining was satisfactory with a good variety of food, but some areas need improvement. The facilities were decent overall.
My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. The room I initially got had a broken bathroom door, and the extra bed I ordered seemed overpriced for what I received. After a couple of issues, I was moved to a different room that was dusty and not well-maintained. The hotel lacked some amenities that I paid for, like a birthday setup which was disappointing. On the bright side, the staff, especially Nasima and Ahmed at the reception, were kind and helpful, making our day better. The location was a bit isolated from outside activities, but the view over the polo field was excellent. The dining experience left much to be desired with limited options and some issues with reservations. Overall, an average stay with some room for improvement.
The hotel was not ideal in terms of bugs and dust shortly after my check-in, although the room itself was clean and comfortable, and quite spacious. The service, particularly in-room dining and addressing complaints, was lacking. The location, although slightly away from town, is perfect for a quiet weekend or business trip. The dining experience had a good variety but could improve. The facilities were satisfactory.
I found the hotel to be comfortable and clean, with friendly staff making my stay enjoyable. However, the room service could have been more polite. The location, while slightly distant from major attractions, offered a quiet and relaxing atmosphere.
