Villa Rotana Suites - Dubai, United Arab Emirates     

My fiance and I stayed here in Nov of 2007 for a quick trip to Dubai. We were in the executive suite. And in my opinion you cannot beat the price for the location and amenities. There are resorts on the "beach" but lets get real... who thinks the Persian Gulf is pretty? haha... I dont. So it wasnt about the beach. If you want to see a Beach go to Tulum Mexico, or Bora Bora. The staff was VERY VERY pleasent and helpful. They let us check in early with no hassle and the bell hop was such a great guide. He gave us a great tips and let us onto a great safari tour. It was an awesome trip for what we spent. The food was VERY good and it came so very promt. I recomend the hummus and kabobs! Traditional Meia as it is called (or something like that) You WONT be dissapointed. I travel to some VERY spendy resorts world wide and I could not have been happier with the service and attitude and atmosphere of this Hotel. They have a very catchy design to the very modern building. It is amazing and they can be very proud of what they have. It is in an awesome location in terms of its near most everything. The Ski Dubai Mall was cool, and you will be AMAZED at the growth of Sheik Zayhed Road! It is like out of a movie. I hope you enjoy your stay there. We did! I Recomend the Executive suite it has a kitchen and laundry room to do your own laundry! See ya!

My boyfriend and I have just returned from our 5th trip to Dubai and know our way around extremely well. Having paid £610 for 10 nights for both of us including breakfast we were highly excited when we arrived outside the hotel. Its very modern and high tech and the staff were fantastic . They were the first to run out to get us taxis as they said it was too hot for us to flag them outside the hotel. The room was immaculate with good kitchen facilities which we didn't use apart from the kettle and the fridge to store cold drinks and make tea. If you like to make use of a gym and pool then it couldn't be better and it was very quiet. You could go from the sun lounger, step into the pool and then into the shower, then into the changing areas to visit the jacuzzi, steam room or sauna all within a few steps. Amazing value and we were made to feel really welcome. Bed sheets were changed daily and towels twice daily!!! What four star in the UK could offer service like this. I actually couldn't believe breakfast was included in our deal! Definitely would stay again, More suited to those perhaps who dont mind not being near a beach! I read a previous request and would ensure to ask when you book for a side or internal facing room not looking out onto Sheik Zayed Road if poss! We had a side facing room on the second floor and heard absolutely no noise at all from outside. Those who have moaned previously must have either paid significantly more or must be really picky!!! All staff could not do more to help you. They even gave me directions for a brand new outlet mall just opened and spoke to our Taxi driver to ensure we got there. Would definitely return to this hotel! Exceptional value for money. Great lunch up on the pool deck too with the quality of great restaurant and only about £4-£5. Only 15 mins from the airport too but near enough the gold souk, karama, mall of the emirates and the madinat Souk........only abot 30-40 dirhams for a taxi round about and very central.
