Decent if uninspiring room, although we didn't have a view of the fountain which would have probably made it better. Service was very good, the argentinian restaurant served great food and being so close to the mall and the burj is a real bonus as there's not much else in Dubai. Nice pool area More

Only had a short stay as had a connecting flight however during our stay we were welcomed and treated like royalty - the staff couldn't be nicer and friendlier if they tried. The room was amazing, spacious and well decorated, no external noise whatsoever. The bed - sheer bliss - the best nights sleep I can remember - so comfortable.... More
