I had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The rooms had amazing views and were very neat and clean, making my stay comfortable. The service, especially from Yana, was exceptional and a major reason why I would come back to this hotel. The location was superb, right in the center of downtown with easy access to shopping and dining options. However, the dining experience, including the eggs, was not ideal. Despite this, the friendly staff and the stunning views of Burj Khalifa and the fountains made my stay memorable.

My stay at this hotel was fantastic! The rooms were spacious, well-appointed, and offered great views of the city. The location couldn't have been better, just a few minutes' walk to Dubai Mall, Burj Khalifa, and many restaurants. However, it was a bit disappointing that my room wasn't on a higher level and far from the lifts as I requested.

I couldn't fully enjoy the amazing view outside due to the high balcony wall, but the room was comfortable. The service was excellent, although there was a slight delay on the last day.

The hotel has a fantastic location with a view of the Burj Khalifa and the dancing fountains, and it's very close to Dubai Mall. The rooms, though spacious, are a bit dated with old furniture, so I wouldn't recommend booking a Deluxe Fountain View Room. The service was a mix - some staff weren't helpful at all, but others like Adel & Nabil were very supportive and even upgraded me to a suite at a special rate. The location is superb for those wanting to explore Dubai Fountain and Dubai Mall.
