I am currently staying at this hotel as a solo traveller and having the best experience. The location is perfect in Al Barsha. Close to local gift shops, supermarkets, and restaurants. It's an easy min walk to the Metro station, which I use daily. There's also a regular free shuttle bus to the Mall of Emirates and Jumeriah Beach. The rooftop pool area is fantastic, although it is too hot for me to use in the heat. There's also a gym, steam room, sauna and wellness spa. The breakfast buffet is fabulous with a good and varied selection of items across the world and. The breakfast staff are attentive and quick to replenish items and serve hot drinks. The hotel is spotlessly clean, rooms are lovely and spacious. All the staff are super friendly and helpful giving it a polished feel. It's very good value for a modern 5 star hotel in Dubai. This is its unique selling point, which would make me want to return here.
