[QUOTE=JyinJapan;2606034]Hey Ricky I have stayed here on one of my recent trips to Dubai. 4 months ago. Yes you can register different guests on different nights. You could also bypass by heading to the restaurant if you are so inclined. But I think you should register. Easy peasy.[/QUOTE]Thanks for getting back to me. Hotel prices in Nov / Dev are really high at the moment so I will probably go ahead and book this hotel using my points.
But the Nassima has a fantastic Indian restaurant. From memory its a short hop from there to the crowne plaza so should be well served on the after dinner dessert as well!
[QUOTE=MrRicky;2605966]
I was also looking at Nassima. This looks like it could be similar the the Burjuman Arjan Rotana in the sense its a hotel apartment. Does anyone have any recent intel on this place they can share?
Thanks![/QUOTE]
I stayed here for a couple days recently just to have a cheap base near Tecom. The front desk was adamant I could not have visitors so I am going to consider this place red unless someone else has information to the contrary. Not a problem for me as I was only doing incalls.

Occasion may present itself to have an escort in a hotel room along with my wife (at the same time).
Is this going to be possible? Wife will be present at check in, escort almost certainly not.
Just checking what are the best options (green for ID registration & pocket friendly) for a short stay in a hotel (couple of hours check-in without luggage) with a WG (she may have passport as ID).
Any suggestions towards Jebel Ali / Tecom side would be highly appreciated to utilize max time for booty call rather than driving to deira side.
TIA!
I've been monitoring hotel prices in Dubai for a while because of a business related trip early next year. The prices, as others have noted, are mushrooming even several months out. From the frequent flyer / travel forums I visit the consensus seems like the hotels are severely overvaluing the draw of the Expo. The expectation from fellow travelers is that occupancy from the Expo with regard to the soaring rates will prove to be a disappointment for hotels and that rates will quickly adjust for the later parts of the events (it's running for 6 months after all) will come down.
So my advice for those planning travel to Dubai is to not make any (non-refundable) reservations just yet but try to push out your visit as far away form October as possible.
I have stayed here before but was annoyed with the 1 girl only rule. I got a promotional email from them today with some offers, I took a quick look and it was quite good. The suites did look good VFM so I decided to give them a call. I was pleasantly surprised by their response to my question on their guest policy. I don't think anything got lost in translation as my questions were direct:
What is your guest policy?
Can I bring a guest?
Does she have to register when I check in?
Can I bring a different guest everyday?
I was told I could bring a guest, she just had to have ID and needed to register. I asked about more than one guest, he said that was ok as long as they were registered. I asked him to confirm the following, if I was to bring a different girl everyday would that be ok. His response was yes, please come.
So this appears to be good news. Maybe they need the business or are relaxing the rules for the EXPO. Don't book this hotel based on the above. If anyone is bored or free, feel free to call them and corroborate what I was told.

[/QUOTE]LOL. Good job on asking explicitly. If the answer was as you said, then yes it is green. I personally used to send hotels emails and only when they would confirm via email, then I would book with them. But do give Park Regis a go, I have stayed there in the past before they started that stupid 1 guest policy and after that I told them to fuck off. They could use the business too, there is a new Double Tree that has opened on the opposite side so with expo people coming, everyone wants to cash in.
Hi,
It's my first post.
If you want visits in your room, avoid Towers Rotana. Location is nice but they don't allow visitors. It doesn't matter what type of Guest.
Towers Rotana on SZR = Red.
Hi all,
Very new member here, have been carefully RTFF with excitement over the past few weeks. Does anyone know if the double tree hotels by Hilton (specifically business bay) are green? Someone asked a few months ago without response.
I've emailed the hotel twice without answer. Am avoiding calling as I don't have international calling from my home.
If no one knows, I'll take one for the team try it out and post back!

Avoid towers Rotana next to Financial Centre Station. It's total red. They don't even have you normal visiter.
Towers Rotana = Dark red!

Oh god. So sorry about the double / triple post. Chalk it up as a learning experience.
Many apologies everyone.
