The room was gorgeous, well appointed, clean, and had a nice view. The only issues were that the shower leaked water onto the bathroom floor creating a slipping concern, and the balcony was wonderful with nice furniture but there were a lot of mosquitoes. So we couldn’t use the balcony. All of the house keepers and the rest of the staff did an excellent job! Coffee and patisserie in the lobby was amazing, along with an outstanding buffet breakfast.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Great location & great staff. We checked in was offered an upgrade for $500 Cad & said why not. We go for afternoon sleep to get climatized. Fountain music is load but location this can be tolerated. We get up bedroom sliding doors are stuck 5 minutes eventually we get it opeln. The Burj Khalifa light show and fountain show to 11pm allows you 4 twelve minute windows an hour. Still location trumps this. Next wedding outside our windiw front desk no idea how long offers to move us. Great everyone wants to move hotel rooms at 1030pm on your second night. On checkout I say quite disappointed inn upgraded room I had to change rooms on. Hotel is old patio doors do not close properly si no noise cancelled at all. Very poor wn you see what the originalncharge was. On checjout desk pwrson said he would report to manager & hecwill be in touch. Nothing. Dubai seems to want your money and say goodbye. Very disappointed.

This is a beautiful hotel very well located, just across the lake and within walking distance from the Burj Khalifa and the Dubai mall. We appreciated being able to see the water show in the lake every half hour right from our own private balcony. Check-in and check-out were easy and fast. We were given a complimentary shuttle to the airport, which was greatly appreciated. The only issue we had was the temperature in the room. It was noticeably cold, and the climate control system only cools the room down, it doesn't warm it up. Upon waking up in the morning, I called reception about the temperature, and they kindly sent a plug in radiator to the room, which warmed it up. I wish that I had asked for the radiator to be delivered immediately after checking in. Overall, this is a wonderful hotel in a great location and I recommend it to visitors in Dubai.
