A magnificent expensive hotel. They settled us instantly, Charged two people 140 derham tax, from the deposit for the bar (they asked for 1000 derham) we refused and asked that the bar be closed.
The hotel is located in the very center of the hangout and coastal recreation, and from the luxury room, sea view, from the superior rooms, view of the neighboring hotel, be prepared for this.
The staff is very attentive and works flawlessly, we had Anil, who put 2 liter bottles of drinking water daily, replenished tea and coffee, made the bed and cleaned the room perfectly. The room has everything you need - a hair dryer, a safe, soap in a piece and liquid soap, shampoo, conditioner, and body gel. Keep in mind -there is no toothpaste!!Very good sound insulation.There are all towels, both large and smaller, and for hands. Two dressing gowns weigh, but keep in mind, they are up to a maximum of 46 sizes.There is a coffee machine, coffee capsules and cream are put in every day. There is also an iron with ironing board in the room. They give you slippers.On the balcony, there are two chairs, pillows from them in the closet, and a table with an ashtray screwed on. You can also smoke near the pool by asking the staff for an ashtray. In many places, both on the territory and in the city, where there are ashtrays, in general, there are a lot of them in the city on the street. The area is very popular for tourists, with very expensive restaurants, I'll give you an example, in a hotel restaurant, we drank two coffees in the afternoon and ordered 2 balls of ice cream, paid 110 derham, which is exactly 2800 rubles. For locals and Europeans, the prices are reasonable, for us it is relatively expensive for 2 cups of coffee..
The hotel restaurant- (we had breakfast and dinner) this is something unreal.
I travel a lot and have such a diet. I haven't met him. There are 10 types of pastries for breakfast, about 8 egg dishes, all kinds of porridge.sausages, ham, salads, cheeses, yogurts, All sorts of cutlets, bread, many options.Vegetables in the presence and in the form of salads , about 10.
Tea or coffee (any) to choose from, you order when boarding for breakfast.
Dinner is a whole story, I can say right away, in a week, I haven't tried all the dishes, both hot and salads.
There is a huge selection, 2 types of soups are served, the hot is in huge vats, you open and put, if you want, there is a device, sushi and Chinese noodles are served daily on a separate table. Sweet- cakes and pastries, I did not count, but no less than 20 types, this is sweet bliss, and it is all prepared in the hotel and very tasty.At dinner, freshly squeezed juices are free in carafes, tea can be ordered from the waiter, and water is always on the table.
The rest of the drinks are paid.
The hotel is magnificent, with very friendly staff.(it is necessary to know English, because Russian-speaking employees do not work every day, the rest speak English perfectly.
I didn't find any disadvantages in the hotel.
This is a fabulous expensive hotel, I didn't find any disadvantages.
A decent level!
— swimming pool with a gorgeous view
— the best breakfasts
— decent neighbors
— close to the beach
— I even used a rocking chair
— always welcome drink (very polite staff), there was a situation when a tour agent messed up something and we were given a higher class room with a great view (it was a nice bonus)
- we took a car, the concierge service pleased us
The only advice is to choose the winter for the trip 😁 (it takes a long time to explain, you will sweat at +50 there, because the humidity is even greater, in general, it is better in winter)
It works an hour later than other similar Dance places on the Marina, and so of course))…. Well, such a thing 🥴). It's like I went to a disco in Dagomys in 2004. 😂😂

Great hotel. It is conveniently located relative to the sea. Umbrellas and beach towels are provided. Beautiful sea view, we had a room with a frontal view, there are rooms with a side sea view. Varied meals , you can contact the responsive staff , organize and prepare individual dishes if there are problems with the common table. Thanks to all the staff and Zarina at the reception.
We rested at this hotel in November 2022, we really liked the hotel. Friendly and attentive staff. Cozy and clean room with a gorgeous view of the bay, ask for a higher floor. There are many shops and restaurants near the hotel, the beach is across the street. The breakfasts are beyond praise, very diverse and delicious. There is a small outdoor pool with sun loungers and a bar.
A wonderful hotel! The friendly staff at the reception, I want to mention Zarina, helped us a lot, especially with English, since we do not speak it.
Instantly helped us to solve the necessary requests.Very polite and helpful, did her job well and even more.
We also want to mention the girl from the restaurant on the third floor Kymbat, very polite and sensitive to her work, also helped us at breakfast!
Excellent cuisine and service staff, create a wonderful atmosphere! We wish you more grateful guests, we will definitely come back!!!
Excellent hotel, the staff is ready to help with any question. Rooms with stunning sea views, comfortable beds and pillows, good cosmetics in the bathroom. The breakfasts are simply gorgeous, a large selection of cheeses, eggs Benedict with salmon, several types of fish, freshly squeezed juices, The Infinity pool is cool, but very small
As elsewhere in the south, the persistent harassment of shop assistants in the hotel itself is annoying.I would like to have peace of mind at least within the walls of the hotel
I really love the Emirates. Modernity! Beautiful! The prices are really very high. As it is, everything is fine. I really liked the fountains. They are good to watch from the Novikov and Leto restaurants.
A very nice hotel. It is actually located on the first line , near shops , cafes, restaurants. Sea view from the window. It 's 3 minutes away . Service, breakfasts, everything is on the level.
Great hotel, great rooms. Lived on the 21st floor, had a view of the bay, the service staff is polite, ready to fulfill your wish. I will definitely come back myself and I advise everyone to visit this hotel, you will not regret it.
The chic location of the hotel. Very friendly staff in sufficient quantity. Decent food in the hotel restaurant. The pool is too small in size and there is a passage to the sea across the road, but this is absolutely not critical. A very decent hotel.
A great hotel with excellent service, very friendly staff. Of the cons: there is no private beach, the restaurant is dominated by spicy, spicy dishes

We were in November 2019 , Lanvin cosmetics in a simple room , pillows , bed linen and blankets are magic , we didn 't want to wake up and get out of bed . I was twice congratulated on my birthday ( the date was mixed up )😂 , but I 'm pleased !!! The pool is nice, though not big. The room was spacious, 37 meters, with a shower, a separate bathroom and a separate toilet. The location is our favorite))))
The location is good, however, already tired, breakfasts are not varied, porridge is not their forte for sure, the beach is nearby, it's a pity that it's not your own, you need to pay if you want a sunbed, many people just walk with towels and an umbrella from the hotel, there are good places to eat nearby
At the time of the order, it was not the most expensive. 😃 but it depends on what to compare 🤷♀️ we had a small but cozy room with a view of the beach. The service was excellent, the staff was well-trained. Breakfasts and lunches are not enough to say chic, I would call them masterpieces, especially brunches, if you get to them, do not spare the extra charge - we had lunch with oysters, shrimps and at least many different high-quality and delicious dishes. I recommend it for a five plus
I'm betting
Three stars exclusively for the reception, upon arrival they mislead that the room is not ready yet, although the check-in time has already come, and they say that there is a room right now for an additional fee, but you need to pay extra. If English is not very good, then after 10-15 minutes of arguing, nothing becomes clear.
Otherwise, an ordinary good-quality hotel, not 5 stars of course, but 4 stars for sure
The small room and the toilet with glass doors surprised. The Russian-speaking staff of Kazakh origin is arrogant and rude, it was unpleasant: you check into an expensive hotel, come by a business class taxi and meet this…
The food is delicious, the view is beautiful, overall ok.
A posh hotel. The staff is well-trained. The truth is that only the girls in the restaurant knew Russian.
There are a lot of entertainment nearby for every taste and budget.
The view from the window to the beach is something. Coffee on the balcony will be remembered for a long time. Kitchen for 5 points.
The hotel does not pull on 5 stars. There is no private beach. The pool is one, small. The food is monotonous and absolutely not tasty, children have nothing to eat. We took an improved room at the same time there is a door in the room, behind which there are neighbors and the audibility is 100%
Guests are greeted with unprepared rooms. There were no toothbrushes, despite the fact that there were three of us, there were only 2 towels. There is noise on the street around the clock, from cars, people. Traffic on this side of the palm tree is busy.
An old hotel, lack of service. The room is not bad, but the location is terrible, the noise from the street and the traffic jam at the entrance to the hotel
The climate is very hot. There are many visiting Hindus, Palestinians, etc.
The products in the shops are very expensive. Dubai is not for hiking, there are no conditions). The water in the sea is hot (sometimes it is hotter in the water than from the outside).
A chic hotel! We are very happy with the rest. Delicious breakfasts and dinners. Swimming pool with a beautiful view. Ask for a room on the top floor, the view from the window is excellent. We'll come again!!!
Nice hotel. Questions about the placement of noisy companies next to family ones, the hotel thinks about it every other time. At the reception, girls who are not very smart, save on everything, do not know how to offer the maximum to maintain the rating of the hotel and create comfort. They don't treat Russian travelers very well.
Everyone really liked the hotel there is a Russian-speaking staff, which is very convenient and not a little important, breakfast and dinner according to the Swedish table system were enough for the eyes, in the spa area on the counter there is an umbrella, mini sun loungers, towels and a bottle of water per person for relaxing on the beach, if there is an opportunity, I will definitely return to this hotel.
We were at this hotel from May 6 to May 16 ! Excellent service, convenient location , very atmospheric!
We recommend it! 👌🏽👍🏽
The room was cleaned daily, everything is fine!
Lovely staff at the reception !
Cool club Havana inside the Sofitel! I recommend it, it works for a long time - until 4 a.m., great music, you can dance when you don't want to go home)
Great, party place! A very lively and colorful space. Everything is safe and quiet. The water is clean, the seagulls are playful 😉

The hotel absolutely does not match its price category! I have visited many 5-star hotels in Dubai and the Emirates, I will definitely not return to this hotel! The only plus of this hotel is delicious breakfasts! A wide range of dishes! Don't try everything!really tearing off the head! The chefs are great! Service staff well done! Thanks! Otherwise- horror! When checking in, they tried to breed on suit! Although the room was booked and so not the cheapest, club with a balcony and sea view! They offered to pay about $ 1200 extra for 3 nights. I refused, I was immediately thrown off the difference in cost by 2 times! I again refused to upgrade the room category. Then they said wait, and arrived at 7 a.m., and asked for early check-in in advance, but this is not guaranteed, and the rules are the rules. As a result, after the "breakfast feeding" come in an hour- they settled in exactly at 15.00! Although many more guests came after me, and they were settled immediately. During the entire waiting time - they never offered a glass of water, although in many "fives" they were greeted with cool lemonade and a wet towel! Apparently, this is not accepted here! There is an ironing board and an iron in the room. Silent air conditioning system. Perhaps this is all of the advantages. There is a kettle, tea bags and coffee BAGS Nescafé! Comrades are 5 stars! And in place of a teaspoon - wooden sticks!!! I haven't seen this for a long time! Everywhere, in hotels of this price category and stardom, there are capsule coffee machines! There were no cutlery in the room! Closed minibar. The water was changed with reluctance. You can't look at bathrobes without tears- waffle, which has seen more than one hundred washes, shrunk to unrecognizable sizes! Towels have also already seen a lot, they differ both in color and quality (washed). No toothbrushes with toothpaste and shaving accessories! Night noise from the window! If you are a light sleeper, take a room with a view of the city, there will not be a construction site and loading and unloading trucks to restaurants and cafes, of which there are many on the promenade! And garbage trucks, from 3 am to 6 am! Also, be prepared for the fact that if you do not live alone in the room, you will not be able to comfortably go to the potty! Through the sliding wooden door to the toilet, all the sounds of nature will be heard! On the bidet, the girls can't turn around from the word at all! It's too crowded! In general, I will not return to this hotel anymore! Alas…
A cool hotel right in the middle of all the traffic!!! The rooms and the view of the wheel are just super!!! The room is awesome! Believe me, my wife understands this and found it herself!!!))))
A good hotel for your money. The location is first line, very convenient, clean, tidy. I didn't really like the food, next time I'll take it without it. In general, I recommend
I really liked the hotel, but you definitely need to choose rooms with direct sea views, otherwise there will be a view of the wall of the neighboring house
A gorgeous place. European breakfasts are of very high quality.
Its own swimming pool with a view of the coastline. The service is great.
Nice spa and hammam. They give sun beds and towels to the beach.
Transport accessibility and walking are super.
It's not the first time I've stayed here. After updating the rooms, it became much more pleasant. Plus a great location, pleasant breakfasts and dinners.
The rest is super, there is something to see, the hotel is class,50 meters from the sea,there are Russian-speaking staff, dishes and desserts are super!It's worth going back there!!!
A good hotel, in a party place - so it's noisy at night if you sleep with an open balcony
But audibility in the toilet is something! And there is no door to the compartment where the toilet is a bidet, so it won't work for two people to use it at the same time, unless, of course, you are not shameless)
The pool is not very large, or rather, small, it can be cramped. But if you want space - the beach is across the street
We rested at this hotel from 27.04 to 07.05.2023. During the check-out, we left things in the hotel's luggage room for 4 hours, there was a late departure, and our bag was stolen! We handed over 5 pieces of luggage, and received 4. At the same time, the employees corrected the figure 5 by 4 in their receipt, and mine was simply taken away at issue. When they began to demand to call the police, they admitted that there were 5 pieces of luggage, the manager even wrote a receipt, but nothing went beyond that. They do not get in touch, they do not respond to messages. There was no time for further disassembly at the hotel, because we would have missed the plane. So be careful. They steal in the Sofitel!
Very surprised by the good reviews!
From the positive only the location,
Food, service are all very very weak, there is something to compare with!, Rested October 2023
