disgusting hotel. All inclusive - one name. The food is worse than in the cafeteria. There are no fruits. Not even french fries. Turkish and Egyptian 5 stars are much better hotels than here. It makes no sense to overpay for all inclusive. It is better to eat in paid restaurants. For those who have all inclusive tables and chairs in the open air bar in the sun.

disgusting hotel.
All inclusive - one name. The food is worse than in the cafeteria. There are no fruits. Not even french fries.
Turkish and Egyptian 5 stars are much better hotels than here.
It makes no sense to overpay for all inclusive. It is better to eat in paid restaurants. For those who have all inclusive tables and chairs in the open air bar in the sun. When the paid bars are all neatly closed.
Beach...another story even you have to pay for sunbeds...
There are also other disadvantages. This hotel corresponds to Turkish 3 stars.

Great hotel! I celebrated my birthday in December. The weather is very comfortable. I don't see any disadvantages. There is only one - it's an elevator! You have to wait a long time. Other pluses! Location: the best. Nearby there is everything, shops, shopping malls, metro, fast food. Sea: warm 26, white sand.

I chose a 5 star hotel near the sea. Everything was great with the accommodation. But when I spoke with my tour operator, I would like her to warn me about the tour in advance. The area is great, there are a lot of pizzerias and restaurants nearby, everything was close by. The food and internet was wonderful.

The hotel is close to metro Jumeirah Lake Tower. In the prestigious, densely built-up high-rise district of Dubai Marina. The first line from the beach, but between the hotel and the water there is a road and a public promenade The Beach. The water in the bay is clean, clear and warm, although the beach itself seemed uncomfortable to me.

The water in the bay is clean, clear and warm, although the beach itself seemed uncomfortable to me. The hotel is good, the breakfast is excellent. Service, as everywhere in the UAE, is on top. The pool is only open, the water is 29 degrees and does not cool down overnight. For children, the hotel only has a small separate pool under an awning.
When checking out, they are asked to pay 20 dirhams per day from the room, some kind of tourist tax. But our operator Lik-tour solved this issue, and we didn’t pay anything.

Hello! In general, I can recommend this hotel to everyone. Its biggest plus is its location. The Jumeirah coast is one of the busiest places in Dubai. There are places to walk and walk around. Amwaj Rotana overlooks the Persian Gulf. The beauty! : ) The hotel has its own outdoor pool. On the terrace next to it there is a bar where you can relax in a relaxed atmosphere.

The hotel also has several themed restaurants: Italian cuisine and Japanese.
Dubai Marina Mall is just 5 minutes' drive from the hotel. Those. shopping relatively close! You can safely start and buy whatever your heart desires!

We returned from the hotel on February 1.2013. We flew with Ural Airlines from Samara. Convenient departure time, took off to the minute, on the A321 (on the plane, to put it mildly - crowded). The food was very modest. But the flight went fine, landed ahead of time. The airport is large, signs are everywhere, everything is clear.

We returned from the hotel on February 1.2013. We flew with Ural Airlines from Samara. Convenient departure time, took off to the minute, on the A321 (on the plane, to put it mildly - crowded). The food was very modest. But the flight went fine, landed ahead of time. The airport is large, signs are everywhere, everything is clear. They immediately changed money at 3.61 (a little, in exchangers in malls the exchange rate is better than 3.68). To convert the price to dollars - divide the price in dirhams by 3.68, in rubles - multiply dirhams by 8.2). From the airport hall we went along the passage to the metro, bought cards for 20 dir (they are also suitable for buses). You apply the card when you pass to the platform and after the end of the trip. Two metro lines, to our hotel on the red one, without transfers, about an hour (30 km). Stop Jumeirah Lake Tower. Dealing with the subway is very simple, trains going to Rashidia are towards the airport, to Jebel Ali are from the airport towards Abu Dhabi. From the metro station to the hotel on foot for about 15 minutes, but for the first time it is better to take a taxi from the metro, 8 dir. Next to the metro there is a 24-hour supermarket, very tasty juices and a lot of fruits (melons, pineapples, pears, watermelons, mangoes, papaya, lychee, rhombutan, strawberries, plums, peaches, raspberries, cherries and I don’t know what yet! ). Hotel. Accommodation 5, Service 5, Meals 5-. Cons: 1 - construction site between the hotel and the beach. It didn’t bother me to sleep, but my husband couldn’t sleep with an open balcony, he said it was noisy). 2 - WiFi is paid. Settled in the hotel very quickly. Things were delivered to the room without us. At the reception there is a Russian-speaking manager Christina (blonde with glasses). For 8/7 we were charged 2000 dir (returned at checkout, minus our additional expenses). It is better to give in dirhams, if you pay in dollars, they will return everything in dirhams, you will lose a little on the difference in the rate of the hotel. In general, it is very convenient not to carry money with you at the hotel. We lived in the Standard with a side sea view. The room is good. First we were settled on the 7th floor, the next morning we asked for a higher room, after lunch we were moved to the 18th floor, a great view of Palma. There were no problems with the move, they politely explained that as soon as the room was free, they would inform us, and it was, they sent a boy, he moved our luggage. The room is as pictured on the hotel website. The room does not smell. The bed is huge, very comfortable, the bed linen is good, 8 new towels, gel, shampoo, conditioner, body lotion were updated every day. Plumbing is good, works flawlessly, hot water is always available. Room cleaning twice a day. Three times left on the dollar. Bathrobes, slippers. The box with tea-coffee-dance is very handy, replenished regularly, every day they brought 2 bottles of water, 0.5 liters each. Mini bar is expensive. Russian channel one TV-3. The staff is friendly, helpful. Swimming pool on the 3rd floor of the elevator, not big, sun loungers, umbrellas, you also get towels for the beach, 5 minutes to the beach. walk, not equipped, but clean. Nutrition. Restaurant Horizon on the 1st floor of the elevator. We had NV. The manager sits down, each time they offer different places. We were very pleased with the food. Fish, meat, chicken, soups, cheeses, herbs, vegetables, sauces, pastry desserts, fruit-berries (watermelons, pineapples, melons, papaya, oranges, grapefruits, lychees, dried fruits - prunes and dried apricots, canned strawberries and peaches). Salads were not taken, there were enough vegetables and herbs. At the distribution there is a Russian-speaking cook, she kindly suggested what to eat. Cons - no coffee, tea bags, for dinner the choice of fresh juices is limited - watermelon, orange, pineapple and grapefruit. If you leave the hotel and walk 3 minutes. towards the Sheraton, at the end of the boulevard there is a street cafe, there is a large selection of fresh juices, for example, mango - 18 dir 0.5l. On the 3rd floor of the elevator there is a separate sauna and steam room, a Jacuzzi according to the schedule (sometimes boys, sometimes girls). Towels and locker keys will be given to you. Massage was not taken, expensive. Marina Mall 20 min. walk from the hotel. Battuta Mall by metro one stop towards Jebel Ali, 2.30 dir. , we went back by bus number 8, the final one is near the metro, go 5-7 minutes. , stop at the Sheraton, very close to the hotel. In Abu Dhabi, you also get to Ibn Battuta, take a bus that goes to Abu Dhabi 25 dir and about 50 minutes. ride. To the Emirates Mall by metro in the direction of Rashidia after 5 stops, to the Dubai Mall in the same direction, but further, 25-30 minutes away. We checked out quickly, a taxi was always at the hotel, our luggage was loaded, you can take a taxi for 8 dir to get to the metro and then take it to the airport - an hour's drive, we took a taxi to the airport for 25 minutes 75 dir. The taxi driver will ask which terminal there are 3 of them, we were in a common international one, we called him the airline. The city is unusually beautiful, clean, delicious smelling, air-conditioned, Burj Khalifa (near Dubai Mall) makes an impression, especially in the dark, singing fountains (ibid. ) - this must be seen at least once in a lifetime. Sea, canals, friendliness, roads, shopping no comment! Well, construction is a new city, there is construction everywhere, hotels, roads, interchanges, subways, houses, shopping and entertainment centers are being built, but all this is done quietly, not dusty and not stressful for tourists. I think that at the end of construction, this hotel will cost much more, not Atlantis, of course, but for its price, it will not disappoint you, there are very few of our compatriots in it!

I was going to Dubai at the end of November, but circumstances changed and I decided to postpone my trip. And then I soon experienced the proverb: “if it left somewhere, then it arrived somewhere else... ”))) There was an opportunity to go to the New Year, which I was incredibly happy about) We had a Biblio- a globe, and the meeting party was a Voyage tour, but we never used their services, so I can’t evaluate the work. Transaero B737 flew back, B747 flew back, took off in the morning at 9.10 without delay and after 4.35 hours we were at the airport in Dubai, where we were met directly from the escalator by a girl with a sign with our names, we pre-ordered the Marhab service for a VIP meeting at the airport . In general, she took us to passport control and a retinal scan through a separate aisle, then we received the suitcases, which the porter loaded onto a cart and left the airport. There, a representative of the Voyage tour was already waiting for us, but we said that we would go by taxi ourselves. We drove to the hotel peacefully 25-30. What I really liked was the service from the very first minutes of arriving at the hotel, or rather at the hotel)) Our things were taken from the taxi, and we went to the reception to check in, I asked for a higher floor, they gave us the 20th. Every day at the reception 2 Russian girls always work in turn, we talked mainly with Svetlana. She was always ready to help in any matter, suggest something. Since we had paid for the New Year's gala dinner, we signed up with Svetlana, received an invitation and chose a table in the hall for the next day. We paid for the classic sea view, we were offered to change to premium for an extra charge, but there was no point in this, because from all the rooms in the hotel there is a gorgeous view of the Persian Gulf and Palm Jumeirah.
What immediately pleased the eye was a chic tall Christmas tree in the hotel lobby) There was a large plasma screen in the room, bathrobes hung in the bathroom, slippers were brought after our things, a sliding wardrobe with lighting, a safe for free, a tea and coffee set, water and a full mini-bar for every taste, but everything is quite expensive. We immediately warned that we would not use the mini-bar, a deposit of $ 200 was taken from us, but if you do not spend the entire amount, the remainder will be returned in dirhams, so it’s better to go to the reception on the eve of departure and ask for a printout of the bill for drinks, services , which you used, so as not to rush about later just before leaving the hotel. And yes . . the beds were also very impressive, two beds were each almost like a 2-bed with snow-white linen, 2 pillows on each bed and a very soft synthetic winterizer blanket)
Hotel
Amvazh is located at the very end of Jumeirah, behind it is the recently opened Ocean View and a small Sheraton, it belongs to the very famous Rotana chain, there are a lot of hotels of this chain in the UAE, it was opened in 2010, completely new with good quality furniture and decoration. The hotel has 3 restaurants, the main Horizon and 2 a la carte, we had half board, it’s very convenient that you can have lunch or dinner at will, the restaurant was always greeted with a smile, wrote down the room number and escorted to a free table, they were always interested in where we would eat , indoors or outdoors. There was no crazy variety, in addition to appetizers, salads and hot dishes, there was always trout or salmon m / s, for lunch or dinner there was always a huge dish with king prawns and a dish with mussels and oysters. Of the fruits, there were always watermelons, 2 varieties of melon, kiwi, sometimes there was chopped strawberries, very tasty desserts. On the 3rd floor there is a swimming pool, a pool bar and an open part of the Italian restaurant Rosso. The pool is deep enough, where you can get towels and go to the beach by going down through the annex on the elevator.
Beach
Amvazh is considered a beach hotel, but as such, the hotel does not have its own beach, as well as the territory, the beach is near the city, there are no umbrellas or sunbeds on it, vacationers come with their own hotel towels. It didn’t bother us at all, the weather was very comfortable, there was no need for an umbrella, the water was about 20-21 degrees, it’s cool for me)) But there were a lot of bathers, both children and adults, local Arabs and tourists. There is one caveat, there is construction going on along the beach line, what is being built is unknown, but they say that it will be for a long time, again, the construction does not interfere with anything, I did not even hear any loud noises.
walk street
Right next to the hotel along the coast there is a promenade, an amazing place for its atmosphere, I really enjoyed walking there. There are a lot of various cafes of different cuisines, shops, salons and boutiques along the entire promenade, it extends to the Le Royal Meredian Mina Siyahi hotel. There are a lot of people until very late at night, even with very small children and with strollers, and perhaps even more local residents, they sit, relax in cafes, communicate, such a calm, measured life...
Dubai Marina
Another amazing place for walking is literally a 5-minute walk from the hotel, this is an artificial canal with bridges and an embankment, which also has many different restaurants and cafes, there is also a yacht club and a marina. In the evening, this is generally an indescribable sight, the lights of skyscrapers are reflected in the water of the canal . . in general, you need to see it with your own eyes) buy a ticket for this taxi.
In general, for the full 7 days of vacation, we managed to go on a sightseeing tour of Dubai (we had an individual guide from the locals), we also went to Abu Dhabi with him, visited the stunning beauty and architecture of the Sheikh Zayed Mosque, as well as an ethnic village and embankment. Also, our guide organized for us an evening walk along the Creek channel on a French boat Bateuax with dinner. While still at home, I myself reserved a table in the Arabic restaurant of the Burj Al Arab hotel and a table in the Lounge bar on the 122nd floor of the Burj Khalifa. The impressions from visiting these places are the most wonderful and enthusiastic) In terms of shopping, we visited the Dubai Mall, which cannot be bypassed even in 2 days)) Emirates Mall and Dubai Marina Mall. 3 times we watched musical fountains at the Dubai Mall, a spectacle, of course, bewitching, to goosebumps... We visited the Dubai Mall Aquarium and looked at the world of animals above it.
This is how 8, and full 7 days of vacation in Dubai passed. As they say, you either like Dubai or not, I know for sure that I will return there more than once, because it is absolutely my city in all respects)) I will definitely take my son there next time, there are a lot of joys for children, and the program , of course, there will be another)) In general, Dubai is my love forever. . . ))

We rested in Dubai with my husband and a 4-year-old child in early August this year. Initially, they were going to fly to Goa in autumn, but plans would change dramatically, besides, my husband and child had birthdays for 2 days in a row, I wanted something unusual, so we bought tours to Dubai for 11 days.
We rested at the Amwaj Rotana - Jumeirah Beach Residence 5 *, just in the Dubai Marina area. We have been very lucky with ticket prices, at least 3 factors:
1. due to the heat, prices in the UAE are lower than in the season
2. in some hotels, including ours, there was a promotion, children are free, we paid only for the child's flight
3. we took breakfasts and dinners, but paid only for one breakfast.
That is, the price turned out to be more than good, especially considering the unearthly prices for Turkey and Europe.
Upon check-in, we made a deposit of 200 USD. e. , the manager asked for 300 c. u. e. , but I said that we are not going to use the minibar. By the way, it is very convenient when you leave a deposit at the hotel, then there is extra money for a dutik)))
We took breakfasts and dinners, dinners could be changed for lunches. We did just that, dined at the restaurant in the hotel, and dined in the city. It turned out to be very convenient, because we were in Ramadan, and all cafes and restaurants were closed until 7 pm, even in malls, that is, there was practically nothing to eat.
I chose the hotel for a long time, I read a bunch of different reviews. I wanted to live in Dubai, and not in other emirates, the Jumeirah area was also chosen on purpose, because I wanted to combine a beach holiday and shopping, in autumn I didn’t want the hotel to be far from the sea and be tied to transfers from the hotel to the beach. The advantage of this hotel is that it has access to a public beach (I want to say that few hotels in Dubai have their own beaches, I mean those beaches that are adjacent to the hotel building itself, mostly free transfers to the beach are carried out from the hotel and back).
The distance is minimal, from the pool to the beach go a maximum of 5 minutes, of which 2 floors are by elevator.
Due to the fact that the beach is not a hotel, it is not equipped, there are no sunbeds, umbrellas. We knew about this in advance, so it didn’t upset us at all, we were going to buy a beach umbrella and save ourselves from the sun with it, but we didn’t buy it. We were on the beach until 11 am, it was absolutely normal, I can’t say that it was very hot. You get used to the heat literally in 1-2 days. Humidity, of course, is very high, in Egypt, what kind of heat is perceived much easier, since the climate there is dry. But I repeat once again, the heat did not spoil our holiday. During our stay, the air temperature was mostly 44-46 degrees, in the sea 33 degrees, in the pool 28 degrees.
I want to note right away that construction is going on almost everywhere in Dubai, the Dubai Marina area is one of the relatively young ones, 2 new monorail branches are being built here, skyscrapers are being built, but everything is done almost silently.
View from the balcony from the pools: for children and adults and a pool bar. The children's pool is covered with a tent, which is very convenient in the heat, this was one of the key factors when I chose the hotel.
The adult pool always had free sunbeds, there was always enough space.
I really liked the fact that lifeguards were constantly on duty near the children's and adult pools, for them there were special high chairs under the canopies. Repeatedly observed Katrina, when the children stumbled from the children's pool, the lifeguard reacted faster than their mothers. In this sense, great respect for the organization of work in the hotel. Sometimes the rescuers could even play ball with the children a little, a trifle, but very nice.
By the way, all the hotel rooms have a view of the Persian Gulf and Palma. I can't remember this in any other hotel.
They checked us into the hotel literally in 5 minutes, we flew to Dubai around 19.40 local time, surprisingly quickly passed all the necessary procedures at the airport, even the retinal scan was without a queue, and we were taken to the hotels in a small minibus. From our plane we were the only ones going to our hotel, 2 more families were going to the hotel next to Parus. The sail at night didn’t impress us, it’s completely dark, it doesn’t glow at all, maybe it doesn’t work temporarily, of course, though this is hardly of course. So it turns out that our transfer was almost individual, we got to the hotel in about 40-50 minutes.
After we crossed the threshold of the hotel, our bags were taken away from us, they were delivered to the room without us, it was very nice, because usually, in addition to suitcases, there are also dutik bags, and it’s hard to drag everything.
Dinner at the hotel was until 10.
30 pm, so we went up to the room and went down to the restaurant. Unlike all the hotels where we used to rest, and we rested a lot, I can say that it was not a "Turkish" dining room with crowds of people who had 5 side dishes, 5 types of meat in their plates, mountains of salads and sweets, namely restaurant. At the entrance, one waiter greets us and escorts us to the table, the second waiter asks what drinks we are interested in, the third brings these drinks, the fourth cleans .....
The restaurant hall was at least 5 times smaller than the usual size, but we never saw crowds and crowds, everyone always had separate tables, sometimes even with sofas.
We were very pleased with the menu, there is no huge amount of unnecessary food, salads that no one ever eats. Just right and very tasty. I was amazed that everyone had oysters, king prawns, salted and baked red fish.
Very good juices, not fresh, but not diluted with water, they were printed from bottles in front of us. Much tastier than ours. For breakfast, free drinks included the following juices: orange, grapefruit, watermelon, tomato, apple, peach. For a fee, you could order fresh juices, they were made literally in 3-4 minutes. For breakfast, the chef from Uzbekistan, Nadezhda, made an amazing omelet. I was very pleased with the choice of cheese that was for breakfast and dinner: brie, ermental, cheddar, parmesan. Delicious cold cuts, can not be compared with those cheeses and colas that we tried in other countries. Lunch was delicious pasta and spaghetti with a variety of sauces. very tasty bread.
In general, you can’t list all the food and variety. So the hotel food is a solid 5.
Standard room very nice and spacious
They cleaned the room 2 times a day, for the first time in my life I saw that the room was prepared for bed! ! ! !
I just didn't have the strength.
We rested at the Amwaj Rotana - Jumeirah Beach Residence 5 *, just in the Dubai Marina area. We have been very lucky with ticket prices, at least 3 factors:
1. due to the heat, prices in the UAE are lower than in the season
2. in some hotels, including ours, there was a promotion, children are free, we paid only for the child's flight
3. we took breakfasts and dinners, but paid only for one breakfast.
That is, the price turned out to be more than good, especially considering the unearthly prices for Turkey and Europe.
Upon check-in, we made a deposit of 200 USD. e. , the manager asked for 300 c. u. e. , but I said that we are not going to use the minibar. By the way, it is very convenient when you leave a deposit at the hotel, then there is extra money for a dutik)))
We took breakfasts and dinners, dinners could be changed for lunches. We did just that, dined at the restaurant in the hotel, and dined in the city. It turned out to be very convenient, because we were in Ramadan, and all cafes and restaurants were closed until 7 pm, even in malls, that is, there was practically nothing to eat.
I chose the hotel for a long time, I read a bunch of different reviews. I wanted to live in Dubai, and not in other emirates, the Jumeirah area was also chosen on purpose, because I wanted to combine a beach holiday and shopping, in autumn I didn’t want the hotel to be far from the sea and be tied to transfers from the hotel to the beach. The advantage of this hotel is that it has access to a public beach (I want to say that few hotels in Dubai have their own beaches, I mean those beaches that are adjacent to the hotel building itself, mostly free transfers to the beach are carried out from the hotel and back).
The distance is minimal, from the pool to the beach go a maximum of 5 minutes, of which 2 floors are by elevator.
Due to the fact that the beach is not a hotel, it is not equipped, there are no sunbeds, umbrellas. We knew about this in advance, so it didn’t upset us at all, we were going to buy a beach umbrella and save ourselves from the sun with it, but we didn’t buy it. We were on the beach until 11 am, it was absolutely normal, I can’t say that it was very hot. You get used to the heat literally in 1-2 days. Humidity, of course, is very high, in Egypt, what kind of heat is perceived much easier, since the climate there is dry. But I repeat once again, the heat did not spoil our holiday. During our stay, the air temperature was mostly 44-46 degrees, in the sea 33 degrees, in the pool 28 degrees.
I want to note right away that construction is going on almost everywhere in Dubai, the Dubai Marina area is one of the relatively young ones, 2 new monorail branches are being built here, skyscrapers are being built, but everything is done almost silently.
View from the balcony from the pools: for children and adults and a pool bar. The children's pool is covered with a tent, which is very convenient in the heat, this was one of the key factors when I chose the hotel.
The adult pool always had free sunbeds, there was always enough space.
I really liked the fact that lifeguards were constantly on duty near the children's and adult pools, for them there were special high chairs under the canopies. Repeatedly observed Katrina, when the children stumbled from the children's pool, the lifeguard reacted faster than their mothers. In this sense, great respect for the organization of work in the hotel. Sometimes the rescuers could even play ball with the children a little, a trifle, but very nice.
By the way, all the hotel rooms have a view of the Persian Gulf and Palma. I can't remember this in any other hotel.
They checked us into the hotel literally in 5 minutes, we flew to Dubai around 19.40 local time, surprisingly quickly passed all the necessary procedures at the airport, even the retinal scan was without a queue, and we were taken to the hotels in a small minibus. From our plane we were the only ones going to our hotel, 2 more families were going to the hotel next to Parus. The sail at night didn’t impress us, it’s completely dark, it doesn’t glow at all, maybe it doesn’t work temporarily, of course, though this is hardly of course. So it turns out that our transfer was almost individual, we got to the hotel in about 40-50 minutes.
After we crossed the threshold of the hotel, our bags were taken away from us, they were delivered to the room without us, it was very nice, because usually, in addition to suitcases, there are also dutik bags, and it’s hard to drag everything.
Dinner at the hotel was until 10.
30 pm, so we went up to the room and went down to the restaurant. Unlike all the hotels where we used to rest, and we rested a lot, I can say that it was not a "Turkish" dining room with crowds of people who had 5 side dishes, 5 types of meat in their plates, mountains of salads and sweets, namely restaurant. At the entrance, one waiter greets us and escorts us to the table, the second waiter asks what drinks we are interested in, the third brings these drinks, the fourth cleans .....
The restaurant hall was at least 5 times smaller than the usual size, but we never saw crowds and crowds, everyone always had separate tables, sometimes even with sofas.
We were very pleased with the menu, there is no huge amount of unnecessary food, salads that no one ever eats. Just right and very tasty. I was amazed that everyone had oysters, king prawns, salted and baked red fish.
Very good juices, not fresh, but not diluted with water, they were printed from bottles in front of us. Much tastier than ours. For breakfast, free drinks included the following juices: orange, grapefruit, watermelon, tomato, apple, peach. For a fee, you could order fresh juices, they were made literally in 3-4 minutes. For breakfast, the chef from Uzbekistan, Nadezhda, made an amazing omelet. I was very pleased with the choice of cheese that was for breakfast and dinner: brie, ermental, cheddar, parmesan. Delicious cold cuts, can not be compared with those cheeses and colas that we tried in other countries. Lunch was delicious pasta and spaghetti with a variety of sauces. very tasty bread.
In general, you can’t list all the food and variety. So the hotel food is a solid 5.
Standard room very nice and spacious
They cleaned the room 2 times a day, for the first time in my life I saw that the room was prepared for bed! ! ! !
I just didn't have the strength.

We arrived at the Amwaj Rotana - Jumeirah Beach Residence 5 * hotel by 11.00, the resettlement was quick, they offered 2 rooms to choose from. Room with sea view, spacious, stylishly decorated, large bathroom. The hotel itself is new, beautiful, with a good fitness room. The food is of high quality, but a little monotonous in terms of meat dishes, but a large selection of fish dishes, seafood, juices for breakfast.

The food is of high quality, but a little monotonous in terms of meat dishes, but a large selection of fish dishes, seafood, juices for breakfast. We took the HB system, which turned out to be very convenient and profitable. It was possible to attend lunch or dinner at our discretion. There is a metro station not far from the hotel. The lack of sun loungers on the beach is not critical, the beach itself is clean, the sand is soft, with a lot of shells, which everyone collects). A 15-minute walk (behind the Sheraton Hotel) there is a public beach (free) with a breakwater, when it was difficult to swim on our beach due to high waves, we went there. Since the hotel is very far from the airport, I recommend taking a private transfer. In general, I liked the hotel very much! Thanks to Lady on Tverskaya

The hotel is good, but pulls on a solid confident 4 *. The room is quite spacious and cleaned daily. The beach is located right next to the hotel, the first line, but it is municipal - there are no sunbeds, no umbrellas. The food is quite monotonous, but one of the pluses I want to note in the diet every day is red fish.

There are free shuttles from the hotel to the malls, but the only more or less sensible one goes to the Dubai Outlet Mall in the desert, the rest are stupid. The biggest problem of the hotel is the elevators, in the morning you can wait for the elevator for half an hour, and it is constantly overloaded. In general, the hotel is quite decent, given the prices for hotels in JBR, it is quite democratic in terms of pricing, there is a noisy embankment nearby, there is always where to go to have fun and eat.
