We had initially booked a twin-room for 3 nights , but needed to extend our stay by another two, reception handled this very efficiently, with the minimum of fuss. Had we experienced any major problems we simply would have taken our business elsewhere. On the 3rd & 4th floors we didn't hear the discos at all, but extreemly loud at... more

Goodcentral location for sight seeing-on the whole staff not very helpful in giving info about area. THE very worst thing was the IRANIAN disco -thought things... more

All the bad reviews on this place were correct and then some. The hot water didn't work, the nightclub kept everyone awake until 3AM. The toilet was leaking, no baby cot was supplied when requested, fridge was not working, linen was ripped and dirty, hand basin was blocked. Requested 2 x single beds and got one double so 2 people... more

booked direct to stay 3 nights- sounded really good value. On first impressions on arrival we were horrified by the filthy area outside, the whole place was in need of a good clean ,the hotel looked Tacky , faded and the 'juke-box' facade cheap and nasty. We were unable to park in the slip road and offload luggage, no attempt... more

Yes there are the night clubs that are stated how ever i never heard them once. i had really good nights sleep. The rooms have every thing you need from a fridge, bed, A/C, bathroom, clean towels, hairdryer and TV. If... more

It was a last minute booking from a travel agent called 4ward travels in birmingham. Our option was clear ie. budget hotel in the heart of the town. Reading the negative views on this site, we were scared but decided to take chance. The staff was freindly the rooms were small but again what we paid was also not large.... more

We were told its a 3 star hotel when we booked infact its a 2 star, we booked a room for 3 people on the top floor we were given a room on the first floor with 2 mattresses sitting on top of each other for the 3rd bed. The noise that came from the club underneath was tremendous till... more

We stayed two nights here during a stopover between London and Bangkok. The staff were friendly when checking in and leaving, the room was adequate, a bit drab but we weren’t expecting much. They had sprayed far too much air freshener to disguise the smell of stale smoke. One can walk to the gold souk from here and it is... more

Stayed here nov 26th -30th 2006. It was a last minute booking made with a company called Asia travel who rated the hotel 3 star..What a joke...the place was abysmal, dirty and downright 1 star if lucky. The location was at the far end of Deira, about ten minutes walk to the nearest bus stop at the gold souk. Every... more
