We are currently vacationing with our daughter, starting on 04/9/2025, and leaving on 04/14/2025.
The location is more or less. The subway is about 15 minutes away at a normal pace, healthy people are just excited to walk, especially such beautiful buildings along the way. But whether I would have taken my 70-year-old mother to this hotel is a big question. She won't be able to get to the subway, well, if only once or twice.
If you have a lot of money, you can take a taxi. All major destinations (Palm Jumeirah, Eye of Dubai, Burj Khalifa) are about the same in cost, although these destinations are different, 40-50 dirhams. And let someone write that 25-30 is not true, here boarding a taxi is paid, 15 dirhams, and it increases the cost.
The hotel staff is wonderful. There are a lot of them, everyone knows their business, everyone is friendly, they will never leave you without help. The rooms are cleaned every day, everything is clean, linen change is optional, if you leave a sign that you do not need to change, then they will simply settle in nicely. But towels are changed every single day.
A separate delight is the breakfasts. First, they bring a choice of juice, tea/coffee, bread, croissants, butter and orange jam. Next, you order one of the 6 breakfast options according to the suggested menu. The breakfasts are not only full-fledged and plentiful, but also VERY tasty. The restaurant itself is small, with 10 tables, but beautiful and cozy.
The main feature of the hotel is a free shuttle service to the private beach of Soluna on Palm Jumeirah and a 50% discount on visiting this beach. Departure in the morning at 8-45 and 9-45 on a clean, air-conditioned bus, you can leave the beach in three trips: at 14-30, at 16-30 and at 17-30. My daughter and I pay 100 dirhams per person for each visit to the beach, and half of these 100 dirhams, that is, you use 50 dirhams on the beach itself for food and drinks according to the beach menu. Delight!
Of the minor disadvantages: the hotel pool is small, and God help it, but sunbathing by the pool is not very comfortable, there are the same skyscrapers nearby and they block out the sun, and a new hotel is being built nearby, not a beautiful view from the pool. But this disadvantage does not spoil the other advantages of this place.
I recommend it for people who are planning a comfortable but budget vacation.
