Dubai - Hotel Information

[Kool Dude]

Hey Guys:

FYI: Das Al Sandos is advertisig 170 AED prepaid price on the Sheraton website for early July stay (that was the period I checked) and Renaissance Dubai was down to 360 for a Friday or Saturday night stay for the same period.

Appreciate if you could provide the website address that advertised AED 170 for Dar Al Sandos Hotel. At present Asiatravel.com is quoting AED 300.

At the risk of being repetitive...does anyone have any experience of the park hyatt dubai, by the dubai creek golf club? I am aiming to book soon and any insight appreciated

Part of me says go with the tried and tested, but not been to the park hyatt and it seems like a nice place....but that would change if it was not nice to my friend(s)

Hi,

Thanks for the info.

I have booked this hotel from 13 to 20 June. I wonder when are the tour operators going to inform me. I hope they are not going to re-locate me after I have arrived as I would hate to be re-located to a non guest friendly hotel.

Welshboy:

Same thing happened to me. Fortunately, someone posted this info a few months ago and I confirmed with the hotel and posted the information I received (just to reinforce the utility in reading and searching the thread).

Anyway, here is the gist:

When I first heard about it I immediately contacted the hotel and they gave me the following rebooking options:

Sheraton Dubai Creek Hotel & Towers, Deira
Sheraton Deira Hotel, Deira
Four Points by Sheraton Downtown, Bur Dubai
Al Sondos Suites by Le Meridien, Deira

I have not stayed at any of them but in reading the thread it appears that AL Sondos and the Dubai Creek are GF as well as the Sheraton on Mankhool road.

My advice to you is to contact the manager (I can PM you his email or I will post it on here if Jackson allows) and he will make sure your rebooking is done.

One other point, when I wa rebooked and asked if I should cancel my reservation at the Bur Dubai location he said no. They will do that as they rebook everyone.

New to the forum - This is great info! I am in Kuwait on business but planning a fun based trip to Dubai or Bahrain within the next month. Dubai is looking like the place to be. The Hotel list is exactly what I needed to get started.

RTFF is your friend! An active forum is a happy forum. Had to go back nearly a month to get the list but there is was with all kinds of good feedback reports on the way. Thanks!

Please inform if Burj Arab dowmtown is guest freindly. thanks

Following up on my last post, I took a premium room at the Rotana airport. Very excellent deal, got a room on the pool level. They are hurting for business and deals should only get better as it gets hotter here. It is still girl friendly but upon main entry and going to the elevators on the right, there was a guy stationed to intercept. This was a weekend night so not sure if he is posted other days. Requirement was a clear photocopy of the passport (best for her to have with) and she signed the copy. This all took a few minutes so as a few people looked over at us, I laughed and pointed at myself with thumbs up. The debauchery had later in that room was so worth it.

just a heads up, one of the best monger friendly hotels (Four Points Sheraton in Bur Dubai) will be closed from 16 May to 16 July.

Hi everyone,

Anyone knows if Villa Rotana, in Sheikh Zayed Road is GF?

Regards,

R.

Dhow Palace had some problems a while ago, is it ok now?

Interesting question. It was GF (for me anyway) two weeks ago. They were crowing about now being part of some big chain (Best Western or something) as if this really meant anything to me. Hotel is the same, rooms are the same.

I got a higher level of stink eye parading in my company, but nobody said anything. YMMV.

Cheers,

Sporadic

Does anyone have intel on the Monarch Hotel?

Thanks.

I will be in Dubai on the 15th-19th, the sheraton 4 points is closed, the Ramada is undergoing external works so no pool, help, can anyone verify if sheraton downtown is GF. Very good rates but contradicting reports on status. The Majestic looks ok but not on any GF lists, Dhow Palace had some problems a while ago, is it ok now?

Just to add. I am getting a play room later this week. Checked out Jumeria Rotana, Moscow, Dar al Sondos, and Bustan Rotana. Settled on the last one, 130US++ for a premium king bed room on the pool level. Great big hotel, no hassles getting in. Dar I know well, just wanted an upgrade. Jumeria Rotana has a nice large classic suite for like 170USD++. Hotel not as big at Bustan, but a good second choice. Moscow rooms were a bit not my taste, but priced well in the 500-650dhs range. All these prices can be found on the hotel web sites and now is the cheap days. Front desk people at each of these hotels told me business was poor. So I would advise anyone booking to actually call and see if they can upgrade for the same rate.
