Dubai - Hotel Information

[QUOTE=Whatsgoingon]Steve,

I did a dummy booking on a well known travel site and both the Ramada and Majestic are less that 300AED in s

I would be interested to book Ramada for AED 300 for my short visits during this summer months of July/Aug. Which is the travel site?
Thanks Simon,

Hi all, I am a new member.

Does anybody knows the latest status with Radisson & Ku-Bu? Are Ku-Bu girls still not allowed in the hotel?

I am a regular there and I must say that the place used to be so convenient that I feel really annoyed by these recent turbulences.

Regards,

Sam

Deon123[/QUOTE]You can book at Ramada 260 AED/night on Booking.com at the moment. This is low season - very good value for money.

I was wondering the best hotels with clubs were at? I'd like to go some where with a good mix of nationalities. I'm going to be there in a few days and want to figure out where I'm going before I get there.

Thanks in advance

Hello gentlemen!

I’ll be staying in Dubai for a month. Could you please recommend me not expensive hotel that is gf, so I’ll be able to bring a girl from time to time.

Thanks

My turn to finally do this :-)

Chancesrq - if you look on the blur bar top right of the screen you will find a search button. There are literally hundreds of reports to the information you seek, one posted just yesterday gave a great account of a whistle stop tour of Dubai and many of the bars/hotels.

Try RTFF and you will get the info you need.

[QUOTE=Chancesrq]I was wondering the best hotels with clubs were at?... I'm going to be there in a few days...[/QUOTE]Define "best". Really depends on what, well make that who, you're looking for. (Clue: don't tell me who you're looking for - do your homework).

In the few days before you get here, you might try doing some reading. Besides the last 10 pages of the dxb thread and the hotel thread, the ROD thread is always a good read - there are reasons why there "reports of distinction". Or download the pages and read when you get here.

Things do change, but be careful of hotels that have P4P bars - a number will NOT let guests into the rooms.

[QUOTE=Zaridtron]I’ll be staying in Dubai for a month. Could you please recommend me not expensive hotel that is gf, so I’ll be able to bring a girl from time to time.[/QUOTE]Define "not expensive". Below 50 dhs? Might be able to find a bunk in a labor camp. 5000? Barg al Arab (cheap now, summer rates).

Otherwise, try some reading.

Raffles at Wafi, Fairmont and Ritz Carlton all qualify .. take your pick, depends which area you need to be located. Near Deira, SZR or Marina end of town

Thanks[/QUOTE]At these three places you dont need to worry about from time to time, you can have your girl(s) camped out 24/7

A friend of mine stayed at Dar al Sondos last. He brought an Iranian from Regal. He was allowed in. No question or Id. So probably it is green again

I stayed at Ramada in Bur Dubai this weekend for AED 300 including taxes. Brought two, one in after noon and one at night. 100% green

[QUOTE=Global Surfer]A friend of mine stayed at Dar al Sondos last. He brought an Iranian from Regal. He was allowed in. No question or Id. So probably it is green again[/QUOTE]It's a news. I was there two weeks back to meet someone & had a chat with the receptionist whom I knew for sometime. He told me that the origional is a must due to the change in the rules very recently & this need to be sent to the authorities.

This rigid stance might have changed due to many mongers avoiding this place. Shall check once again for the latest.

That is bad news about the Radisson. I had a reservation there and have since changed it to the Four Points. 3 nights for only 200 dirham per night; unbelievable prices even if one must pre-pay in advance.

By the way, I will be there on the weekend of the 7-10th of July, which includes one of their holy days. I imagine the bars and clubs will all be shut down on that day, but I don't imagine they would kill the whole weekend. Does anyone have experience with this particular holiday weekend in Dubai?

After some time away I will be making a short trip to Dubai. I'm staying at the Address Downtown by the Dubai Mall. I've searched this thread but there is no info on this hotel being GF for a year or more. Can anyone provide an update please?

Many Thanks

Please double check this by phoning your hotel. Best bet is to arrange/agree with someone on 7th. Alternativley you may request phone number through private messaging system. This will only work if your are paying member.

Third option is street walkers. You may find them on the pavement between Regal and Ramada usually late at night.

WM[/QUOTE]My Russian live in girlfriend (ex Cyclone A lister) works part time at Cavalli Club (Fairmont) when I am away on a business trip. She reports that she has visited the Address Downtown several times recently. Customers have given her a spare room door key and asked her to make her own way to the hotel. Make sure you specify Address Downtown and not Address Dubai Marina.
