Despite the heat (July) this hotel

Despite the heat (July) this hotel was comfortable and the air conditioning worked well. Across the road from the Dubai Museum which is a must to see. Walking distance to the souks and cheap abbra's across the river. Recommend using taxis for transport as we found them to be very good value. We recommend a desert adventure with a taxi tour of Dubai to look at the wonderful architecturally designed buildings. An enjoyable place to visit for 3 nights.

Excellent facilities and service

Excellent facilities and service at the hotel. A minor dampness problem in the first room I stayed at (June 5-8) but my room during the second stay (June 15-16) was fine.

I had some hopes before arriving

I had some hopes before arriving and my executive room was really non smoking room, with the nice view. My room was great, beautiful and coffee always available, In addition, free snacks in the evenings in their executive lounge. It was so good not to have wall to wall carpets on the floor in my room! It was very quiet room. Bathroom was very basic, small, but shower and toilet worked okay. Their staff was very polite.They really wanted you to feel good in a hotel and enjoy your time. I enjoyed their sauna a lot, it was hot enough! Really relaxing. Also massage was good in the spa, with 30% offer.

A beautiful old style hotel with the best service and friendliest staff. A lot of choice for restaurants on the premises, also with a pub, gym and pool area. A 6km cab ride from the airport made it a really good choice for a 2 or 3 day stop over. Will definately use this place again.
