5-Star Hotels in Dubai

There are many choices for breakfast, the service is very good, there is a beach and a swimming pool, and the hotel also has several restaurants. It's about 20 minutes away from the city. I will come again next time, it's great!

Located right at the entrance of Palm Jumeirah, the views are absolutely stunning. The room itself was great overall, though the bathroom in our suite had a slight drain odor. We were charged per room upon arrival, which was higher than the amount stated during booking. Ctrip proactively covered the difference, which just goes to show how transparent and reliable major platforms are.

Booked an apartment, it was more like a studio. If you don't stay somewhere nice in Dubai, you won't enjoy yourself properly; only with good accommodation can you truly experience the beauty of Dubai! 😁 The room was very spacious, with one bedroom, a living room, and two bathrooms. The sofa was a sofa bed, which my daughter treated like a trampoline. The room also came with a full kitchen setup. The hotel's pool is outsourced, and the staff's attitude was so-so... The view was average, and the area was quite small. Coming straight from the Ritz-Carlton, the Sheraton's pool left me a bit disappointed... The water was a bit cold, and we left within half an hour. Hotels in Dubai don't provide disposable bathtub liners, which honestly could be a new business opportunity, haha~

A truly perfect stay! It's cut from the same cloth as Atlantis but with a more artistic vibe. The fire and water fountain show is definitely worth seeing! Breakfast was abundant and varied. Due to a flight change, we had to check out a day early, and the hotel surprised us by delivering our ordered breakfast items right before we left. It was beautifully presented and far from a perfunctory gesture, which was a delightful surprise!

The sole purpose for this stay is for the countdown view of Burj Khalifa and the room’s view is spectacular! We drove and was met with the valet but then from there to the lobby was not clear as expected with a 5 star hotel. Once we got up to the room it was great. Bathroom was nice and room is modern, but the TV is not great. The the colour is obviously broken with half the TV different. Breakfast was good with a good spread and taste was good but they didn’t have enough staff and service is rushed and the experience is not quite 5 star. It just seems a number of staff isn’t fully trained and the manager had to tell them to do this and that in front of us. Lastly, they tried the “menu” model like top hotels with the breakfast and that was a joke! I ordered French toast and on the menu it was with whipped cream and compote with berries. The plate given had no cream and just had a couple strawberries. It was a good stay but still some areas to improve for the premium price.

Environment: The hotel environment is great, with a beach downstairs perfect for a pre-sunset stroll. Breakfast: The breakfast selection was extensive and one of the best parts of our stay. Service: Special shout-out to Sandar and Dimas who cleaned our room these past few days – their service was incredibly enthusiastic! Area for improvement: The persistent odor in my room. It felt like an lingering smell from a previous guest.

Everything is brilliant, the service to the cleanliness to the comfy beds! Highly recommend. Clean hotel, very good breakfast. Wahab from breakfast Larder restaurant provided excellent service, very organised. Thank you.

Location - close to DXB airport, it's a 8 min walk from Al Rigga metro station (don't follow google maps, use exit 2, walk against traffic towards Al Safadi restaurant, turn left into 37 st to the end to reach Al Muraqqabat Rd, turn right and head to the road crossing, walk to the right past the carpark and you'll see the hotel building, back entrance is ahead). Good hotel for exploring this older side of Dubai. Takes about 2 hours to walk to the Dubai Old Souk area which is a pleasant exploration in cool weather. Oh there's another Asiana Hotel nearby close to Salah Al Din metro so don't get mixed up. Neighbourhood - a mix of Filipino, Pakistani, Indians and locals, a vibrant area with shops, supermarkets, restaurants everywhere. A few night markets and large discount shops are nearby too. The largest mall is Deira City Centre Mall is half hour walk away or 1 station from Al Rigga station. Room - Large room with king bed, sofa and coffee table, working table, huge tv, small kitchen with microwave and fridge, bathroom with bathtub and shower, closet room. It was basically an apartment! Too big almost. The kitchenette came in useful to reheat leftovers I took home from a large dinner. Very modern look with grey and wood finishing, marble tile at foyer and carpet in the living and sleeping area. Elegant subtle lighting for a refined soft feel. Bed - comfy, 4 pillows provided Cleanliness - very clean everywhere Bathroom - very clean, very big, awesome shower pressure Facilities - I used the swimming pool on the rooftop. Sufficiently long about 20m for lap swimming. Pool was heated given the winter season. Gym is on top level too and looked well-equipped. The hallways on the room floors are wide and not cramped. Breakfast - Good. Egg station, a good selection of breads and baked items, mains and carbs tended towards Arab and Indian cuisine styles. Loved the Masala Tea. Good service. Check in and check out - took a while because I stayed during a busy week. Lifts and access - two lifts only so can get busy at breakfast and check out time. (Taking the stairs might be quicker) The main entrance faces away from the main Al Muraqqabat Rd (so it's quieter) though there is a more convenient back entrance with a slope for those on foot heading to Al Riqqa station. Nearby places to check out - Dabha Tea Shop; Al Samadi Sweets; Little Star Peshawar Pakistani food; Deira City Center Mall; Al Safadi Lebanese Restaurant; Deira Clock Tower Negatives - a luggage rack in the room would've been nice; not many English speaking tv channels to watch; some sound of aircraft overhead might bother some; don't need keycard to access room floors which can be a security risk. Overall - a very high quality hotel in a vibrant area.

Lot of improvement in the food segment, really not expected nothing felt fresh except the fruits. May be for food I may go down to 1 star.

Was a brilliant stay at grand mercure dubai, it very close to the downtown. Good service, good amenities, cleanliness, with affordable prices. The breakfast was good too. I enjoyed my stay.
