Dubai - Hotel Information

[QUOTE=Jompaq;2024753]I am confused.

What a good location to stay on the mongering trip.

Jumeirah / palms is amazing locale and feels elite. (hoping to get an ocean facing room).

Deira / bur is too crowded and busy.

Can someone suggest a GREEN hotel in the $125 range.

I will be renting a car (have no idea of the traffic in DXB).

Intend to use in while club hopping / nighttime.

Will Jumeriah be to far away from action.

Is Deira derivable at nights (have to do premier / Moscow).

Have good 6 nights, and can change hotels.

Pl guide guys.[/QUOTE]I personally don't like the palm and marina or Jumeirah too much. More expensive and a bit far away from Bur / Deira, that I do prefer. It's probably a 30 m drive, If traffic is OK. Driving around bur Dubai and Deira is no problem, if traffic is OK. Forget it on Thursday and Friday afternoon and evening.

I mostly prefer a taxi, it's more easy.

I would like to enjoy Deira for two nights next week. Any suggestion for 4 or 5 stars hotel there or nearby?

Your 87 "FRs" are really a lot of questions like the one here, and you have asked in many countries but you don't really FR much after you get the information (if people do respond to you).

Try RTFF and put ion "Deira, 3-5 star" and surprise you will loads of information and you will find some from there also.

Been here many times without issue. Got denied for the first time today. I am a Platinum Premier at Marriott and it didn't matter. Sucks big time.

Could not find much info at RTFF.

Is the apartments at WTC, green.

[QUOTE=Alex7J;1976512]Palm means green all hotels, hotel apartments, air bnb, private apartments, villas and penthouses all meant to party and super green until you don't create ruckus and police has to be called.

Simple and easy.[/QUOTE]

Is there no way of circumnavigating the desk?

How about heading to a bar first in the hotel then going to the room?

Appreciate any advice.

Thanks.

LE Meridian Airport was green, with no ID, just a few days ago.

I also thought that this hotel was very green. It is surprising to see the change from management, my guess is something must have happened.

Suitable to note that this hotel caters to a wide array of business travelers so it is indeed a surprise.

I have done the going up to bar approach before at different hotel though. One thing to note is that on each side (left and right towers) there is a security guard in both elevator areas who I have seen asking guests / visitors where they are heading towards.

About to book my stay in this hotel.

I take your word for it. It's all GREEN.

Renting a car, can access rooms from parking I guess.

Any other tips on this hotel.

[QUOTE=Marlin36;2003696]Hotel apartment. Very spacious and green. Direct access from parking to your room. Enjoy.[/QUOTE]

Last visit of mine there was 2015. It had turned red from yellow.

So I immediately checked out and was given partial credit of the booking amount.

I haven't seen many updates on this one.

Harry.[/QUOTE]Harry, here is the deal, if you bring a girl back after 2 ish, you will have a problem and most likely get denied. Prior, pretend you are going to the bar on the 69th floor, or really take her to the bar and then head back down to your floor. So, while it is "red" there are ways to circumnavigate.

Be mindful that due to CCTVs someone can / may follow you up / down or knock on your door. I did an FR on Novotel alBarsha back in April 2016 where we were given notice of this practice and the hotel's 'solution'.

Needless to say we checked-in elsewhere.

Be careful.

I once picked a girl in a bar for ST, she led me to one of those Chinese hotels and we got some fun there. On my way out and I talked to the manager about coming with my girl and he gave me his business card. Since I took several part timers there whenever I could not accommodate. They charge between (50 to 100 per hour. They are mainly set up in apart hotels. I found recently one not far from Panorama hotel. They provide condoms and clean towels (which I recommend to use as a sheet). It is not equivalent to hotels but it is a good solution for residents who can't bring in WG home for whichever reason. It is not as convenient as hotel for privacy (during the peak hours you might bump into someone waiting for a room) but it is cheap and convenient enough for a quickie especially in daytime and they of course they don't ID.

Stay safe.

Signature Hotel Al Barsha is GREEN with ID as of April 26,2017.
