Thank you Luper Calia, Wicked Roger (I like the picture of your fishing trip with Piper1. I did a fishing trip in May in AD. Was rather boring... with my wife and my little son), Sonic Ray, Disappointed and especially Hunter105 for your recommendations.
I appreciate your response as a warm welcome for a newbie to your forum.
I finally choose the Towers Rotana. Best value. There is more money left for mongering!
See you in the UAE

I had asked this in the hotel -information forum but since we are talking about hotels here let me ask...
Does anyone have any experience with MyDubaiStay.com ([url]http://www.mydubaistay.com/default.aspx[/url])? I'm coming out again later this year for a few weeks and I'd like to stay someplace other than a hotel. I'm thinking it might be more GF friendly...
Feel free to PM if you wish
TIA,
Joe

Joe. Something else to check on are hotel-apartments. They are much nicer for longer stays. Two I can recommend are across SZ road from the Marina area. Sapphire Hotel Apartments and Legacy Hotel Apartments. On most travel search engines if you use 'hotel apartment' for the name, they will come up. I have spend several weeks in a one bedroom at Sapphire. Serviced, cook if you want, nice. WR has seen it and can attest. Most of the parking is underground and you can go directly to the lift and your floor. Not going past reception. Check them out!

i arrived back in dubai mid week and was looking forward to a bit of music before ramadan which is due to start 1st or 2nd of sept depending on moon sightings. i missed the boat however. i “wasted” thursday evening in a convivial meeting with friends in the otherwise tedious “underground” in the habtoor grand so friday i decided to hit bur dubai.
[b]music room 8:30 to 10:10[/b]
ordered a beer and waited for my wingman to arrive, no music, wing man arrives we order food, still no music, wing man thinks flip side left a few days ago. ask the waitress, no music until after ramadan – bollox.
there was not much in the way of other distractions either, 3 prc, obviously working, one in a nice mini dress. with a few others on dates.
[b]seaview 10:15 to 10:30[/b]
same story, the band has gone, sparse rep001tering of prcs, some reasonable filipinas (i am guessing) but they are accompanied by some european guys. we considered the york, but neither of us was in the mood for the place. my wingman suggests “savage garden” at the capitol hotel.
[b]savage garden – capitol hotel 10:45[/b]
closed until after ramadan!
[b]rockwell café – capitol hotel 10:45 to 11:30[/b]
no live music, wingman identified some of the band members having a beer. not much going on, two nigerian lfubs trying to drum up some business, not overly aggressive but they did take a little while to get the message we were not interested.
it looks like this may be a reasonable place to hunt “civilian” filipinas.
after that - gave up and went home
my wingman told me he weny hunting for a mexican resturant last week and ended up in pancho villas in the astoria. i have not seen a report on this place for ages. he was surprised to find it was a down market version of the york. nothing changed there then!

Yes this is a a nice place, smart rooms, large enough for a party ;)
Also no walk of shame, so easy and looks like good value as long as you do not mind being far from Bur Dubai
[QUOTE=Loxfun]Was in Dubai for a few days recently and met Steve D while out and about. He told me that he was with PRC Lisa any nights he was out and didn't feel he had anything new to add to the forum. I also think he has no access to the forum for the next few weeks so maybe that answers the questions.[/QUOTE]
Well guys - I'm back - but still out of action - if you know what I mean. (and for me mongering happened after marriage - did not realise I would miss the variety, chat-up and hunt so much!!)
Have managed to save about a dozen numbers for daytime liaisons - which should keep me content until the next bout of bachelor freedom - hoping the new visa rules don't force the girls to leave too soon.

I know that with the new rules there are many problems with hotels, but what's happening with VISA?
Might be that girls in Dubai will have to go away?
Was in Dubai a few times in recent weeks and stayed at Ramada Bur Dubai. GF as usual and very central for the area. While I have nothing particular useful to add on the forum, I do want to say a big thank you to Wicked Roger who was more than helpful trying to sort out my requests. Visited all the clubs/pubs in the area. York is as reported many times. Regal to me anyway seems to have a much poorer selection than say two years ago: always busy but M/F ratio was 60/40 and the quality was only fair at best. Where have the a listers gone? Was in Panorama a few times and there were a few reasonable lookers but age wise in the older bracket. Only made it to Imperial once and for a short time leaving at 11.30 but as Piper stated recently there certainly was quality to be had.Next time it will get more attention. Seaview a few times and band excellent as always but again felt that quality was thin on the ground with a few lookers but the vast majority falling into the c list. Hit Rumours one night and while it was very quiet there were a few Ukranian ladies that you wouldn't say no to. Price was coming in at 700aed for the night but I had other plans made. As stated thanks WR for your help and as I told you after the event I felt that filipino Jean, who you helped me to meet up with is not giving quality service at the minute and I sensed that her mind was elsewhere.Not one for repeat business at the minute anyway. Maybe lack of quality lookers has something to do with Ramadan being so close and alot had already left Dubai for the month.

Hi LF
So that others know as well, Jean's mind seem to preoccupied (as I found out later) and maybe the fact she has her visa issues resolved she doesn't really care as much now etc. Who knows but certainly it was not the Jean I know and others know (a pale shadow). Menu was discussed and agreed as was price but menu not delivered. Even spoke with J the next day and she was not really focused.
We will see if this trend continues or not as there are others who will take her place if needs be. I hope this is one off and LF just got her at a bad time (we all get those but wish she had told us).
See you you LF

[QUOTE=Netviking 2008] but what's happening with VISA?
Might be that girls in Dubai will have to go away?[/QUOTE]
Confirmed from some work collagues that Visa runs to Kish are still happening. Only difference now is that replacement visa is a one month tourist visa that can be extended once by one month only.
Also a few PRC contacts have done their visa runs in the last two weeks - but still to get the details.
So it would seem that visa runs can be done every two months now, instead of every 3 months. This obviously will push the costs up for the girls - but not as much as initially feared.

[/QUOTE] If it can only be every two months then it will make it very difficult to stay in the UAE if visa's validity is only one month and only extendable by a further one-month on a one-off basis. The girls will need to have a bloody good sponsor/PRO to make that happen.
