Great Cigar shop called The Leaf Master. It's probably the best in town. Had cocktails in the bar on the ground floor that were okay. The service was great, especially Laura, a waitress from Malawi. The location is a bit wonky to get to, but it's worth it.

One of the best hotel in Dubai. Excellent amenities and services. Very helpful staff. The room is specious and clean. Housekeeping is excellent. I suggest to make the front desk location in the front of the entrance. The current front desk is to the side and smaller than the concierge

Very pushy staff. We had what was supposed to be a tour of the hotel with the idea of seeing their facilities so we can consider booking a room/suite for our stay. We were hugely impressed by the suites and penthouse and actually considered booking the penthouse for 2 nights while we were here and for the full duration of our next holiday to Dubai. Then it turned out to be a very pushy sales pitch. Where we were constantly asked our budget to buy a membership with them which would give us 'discounted' rooms. To make it worth our while they also wanted US to sell THEIR rooms to friends and family for a profit through the membership. To try and get out we said our budget was only £5000 and we can't afford membership. The manager came out and surprisingly membership was £4500! Then we said no not affordable, we have £5000 and can't spend it all, the price immediately went down to £2500. I have a family member who would have been very interested as he already has various successful investments in Dubai, but the very pushy sales tactic - especially the fact it was disguised under a guided tour of the hotel to show their facilities so we can consider booking means I will not be considering this for myself or any friends or family. If they had been honest and transparent, I would have done my research and probably gone with it. Oh and they told us we have to make a decision there and then and make payment as its a one time offer... when we finally managed to walk out (4 hours later) we were given the relevant paperwork and told to have a think about it as we can purchase at any time. No thanks.

The room was comfortable and cosy. I really enjoyed the time I had at the hotel. Hotel has a restaurant where you can have a drink. Additionally, the staff was friendly, helpful and cheerful. When I asked for a late check-out, they extended my check out time to 2pm which was very helpful for me.

Stayed at this hotel with my husband and 2 children from October 8- October 13. Magnificent hotel with very courteous, friendly and alert staff. The views from the room were breathtaking. Breakfast was great with selection of continental, Indian, Greek, Arabic cuisines.
