The location was decent, a short drive or even a manageable walk from the Dubai Mall area. However the service is where this hotel shown, being greeted upon arrival, allowed to check-in early, being asked if there was anything else they could do to make my stay more comfortable, etc etc. It was truly a very pleasant experience. The room was large and modern and clean, very comfortable bed. The pool area was nice, but nothing spectacular. The hotel was also an excellent value for the price paid, would definitely stay here again.

The location is easy to get around everywhere. At check-in, I wanted to book a spa appointment, but was told to go directly to the spa to book it myself. And I made a reservation in person, but it was not reserved on the day of the event. Why? It is a chain hotel, safe and secure. They are just handling the guests.

The hotel is opposite Dubai mall so an excellent location. The room is a great size, however the hotel is under renovation so the gym is not really suitable, and the temporary restaurant was cramped and there was limited staff at the reception despite the hotel being busy.

Anatara The Palm is perfect as a family resort. It's location isn't the most accessible (as it is towards the end of the Palm) but isn't it the purpose? The hotel has excellent staff training offering very attentive and friendly service, plus facilities for everyone in the family. The F&B is great offering Asian, Steakhouse, and International proper dining cuisines, plus pool side and beach side bar/cafe and restaurant too. The sports centre is also great offering a wide variety of activities for adults and kids. The hotel also has free shuttle bus service to/from the Emirates shopping mall (closest mall to the Palm) which ride will take about 20-25min. Thumbs up!
