I’ll start from the beginning, the hotel doesn’t pull 5 stars, maximum 3, for Russian-speaking people staying at this hotel is quite difficult, the Russian-speaking guide appeared once and apart from selling expensive excursions to tourists did nothing, I myself eventually bought Burj Khalifa tickets on the site much cheaper, what happened to pay with a Russian card, the voucher came to the post office and without queues we went on a tour, the staff does not speak Russian at all, there is no information in the rooms either about the time of meals, or about the departure time to the Malls, or about the opening hours swimming pool, just awful, at the reception from the information only the departure times of buses to the Malls and only in English, in general, who cannot speak and read English at least somehow staying at the hotel is just a real test, I saw it myself, I can communicate in English and for me it was not difficult to stay in this hotel, there is a long queue for breakfast, there are clearly not enough places, but the food is not bad, the guide is not attentive and does not provide any information, he is only interested in selling tickets for excursions, the guide's name is Mustafa, he does not inform about changing the time of the tour, when there was a return transfer to the airport, if I hadn’t started walking and asking where the transfer was, no one would have said that the car was under the hotel, although we were waiting at the entrance, the driver arrived and didn’t tell me at all seems to be in english .

. Room with blocked windows, do not open the horror is simple, dampness in the room. But the room is cleaned every day. The staff at the entrance offers an expensive private taxi, although in this country you can not ride a private taxi, for understanding they offer almost 4 times more expensive than it is. With me, the woman forgot her iPhone in a taxi and the staff at the hotel did not provide any help and did not even call the police, although the taxi drove away from the entrance to the hotel and the cameras 100 percent filmed the car number, we rode the metro and walked ourselves, so the vacation was a success, the beach is nearby , and here's another nuisance, when they bought a tour, the transfer to the sea was included in the price, you can say it was the key when buying a tour, upon check-in we were told that there was no transfer to the sea and we had to take a taxi, with such an expensive cost of 5 stars and there is no transfer to the sea, although I saw that there is a transfer even in 4 stars. This is a big minus, and the site still has infa that there is a transfer.
The staff offered us a taxi to the beach for 40 dirhams, but I left the hotel and went to the metro and there was a taxi rank, sat down and drove for 12 dirhams, it was very unpleasant that the guests were treated like that, the transfer was canceled and they also heated up for an expensive taxi. In general, I will still go to Dubai, I liked the country, but not to this hotel, that's for sure, it's not worth that kind of money.

But in terms of nutrition during the quarantine period, everything is sad. They said at the hotel a small load, the restaurant is closed for lunch and dinner, only for breakfast. The rest of the time they offer meals in the room... I attached our menu for all 7 days with a separate photo... In general, I decided to leave this review on the second day, when we were told that of the two juices available to us, they were supposedly no longer included in the price. True, then they were again supposedly added to our menu...

We stayed at the hotel in May 2013. We were lucky with the weather, not as hot as in June (second time in the UAE). The superior rooms are small, but if you are in the Emirates for the first time and have not stayed in 5-star hotels, you will like everything. Experienced in 5-ka hotel may not like it. Breakfast is sufficient, you won't leave hungry.

Breakfast is sufficient, you won't leave hungry. When settling in, you will be understood at the reception, even if you know English very poorly. But if you have any comments or problems, they will pretend that they do not understand you))) Therefore, if there are any comments, you will need to catch the Russian manager - Olesya. Olesya will tell you everything and help you.
Cons - in the rooms in the morning and late in the evening cold water was pouring from the hot tap (you had to wait a long time until it drained). First they lived on the 54th floor, then moved to the 26th. The problem with water was not solved. (((
In the first room everything was prepared for one guest (gels, bathrobe, towels). Do not be shy, call the reception - everything will be brought to you and supplemented.
The pool is not big and shallow. Half of the pool is waist-deep. Therefore, in order to swim, you have to swim along the very edge of the pool (and there are a lot of people who want to swim, so it’s not convenient).
Pros - located right next to the metro station - very convenient, 2 stops from the largest shopping center Dubai Mall. Leaving the hotel you will see a supermarket and many cafes. The hotel is new.
Minibar is paid. Safe is free.
P. S. The hotel takes a deposit of 400 dollars for 2 people (7 nights stay). Returned in dirhams.

We rested at the Millennium Plaza Hotel Dubai 5 * in May 2013, the location of the hotel is very convenient - in the business center of Dubai, on Sheikh Zayed Road, the metro entrance is opposite the hotel, 2 metro stops - Dubai Mall, Burj Khalifa and Fountains (if you walk - 30-40 minutes walk: cross the road and cut off by courtyards).

We settled quickly, after 10 minutes we were in a room overlooking the Burj Khalifa, having previously asked about it. The room is comfortable, cozy, a bit weak ceiling lighting, but it did not bother. The beds are very comfortable, the bed linen was changed daily, the iron and board were brought on request, the tea set was replenished daily, bath accessories too. The breakfasts are good, with a large selection of breakfast items. Transfer to the beach daily at 10 am, the bus was full, pick up at 16, but usually we left earlier by taxi. We went to the Outlet Mall once - it is far away, there was not enough time for shopping, because the bus took us back in less than 2 hours. The pool on the top of the annex is nice but we preferred to swim in the bay so we only went once. . . Walking somehow towards the sea, we found the Dubai Zoo among the houses. . . In general, a good hotel for almost any category of tourists

We rested in this hotel in January 2013, really liked the location of the hotel and just the entrance to the metro in front of the hotel is very convenient. Upon check-in, there was an English-speaking girl, but I had no problems with the language and after 15 minutes we were in a room overlooking the Burj Khalifa, having previously asked about it.

Upon check-in, there was an English-speaking girl, but I had no problems with the language and after 15 minutes we were in a room overlooking the Burj Khalifa, having previously asked about it. The room is comfortable and cozy, my girlfriend lacked ceiling lighting, such lighting did not bother me. The beds are very comfortable, the bed was changed daily, an iron and a board were brought on request, a tea set was replenished daily, bath accessories too, but for some reason in one copy, although the employees know that there are two in the room. We had half board, the breakfasts are good and, in principle, you can diversify them yourself, although the set of products is the same, but the dinners are wonderful, everything is very tasty, especially pastries and desserts. Transfer to the beach daily at 10 am, there were many seats on the bus, pick up at 4 pm, I think it is very inconvenient, even in winter, preferably at 2 pm. We never went to the mall. The pool is simply amazing, there are quite a lot of people who want to be there in winter, sometimes there were not enough sunbeds, but this is probably only in winter
