Barceló Hotels Hotels in Dubai

We rented in the apartment section. it’s a very nice size apartment and comes with a small kitchen and living room. If you’re going to be in the area and have a family, this is highly recommended.

Nice clean place very attractive marvel . Good places are all around and close easy access and I have very good time staying here and with respect to money it’s worth .

It’s a nice property and very nice location middle of the city lot of restaurants at walking distance . It has nice pool and nice gym . It’s now over one year I have stayed here many times . We are happy here .

All in all great experience with a few issues mentioned at the end. Helpful staff, especially valet parking, luggage service, early check-in for us free of charge, early breakfast packaging for check-out and so on. Location is also very central (of course convenient only by car or taxi/Uber). Arslan from breakfast is excellent and friendly. He does his job perfectly. Also Raj from the garage (delivery point) is very nice, helpful and cheers you up each time you meet him. Abdullah from housekeeping (room cleaning) is the best I have seen in hotel service in his position. Fast, efficient, friendly and down to earth. A few issues: Elevators take a LONG time to arrive. Although most breakfast service people are great, a few times they forgot your orders, bring wrong ones, etc. TV is very dim, sound is very low and the broadcasting from an iPhone only works half of the time with lots of disconnections. Bathrobes had to be requested explicitly a couple of times (since forgotten), the reception only had 1-2 people and almost always busy with another guest which means waiting time. All in all a great experience and for Christmas and new year's time, we found a relatively good price for a 5-star hotel at this time. Recommended!

I find this hotel neat and clean. All repairs are done on time and facilities are shining. But what I value the most is Customer Support. All the hotel staff has exceptional high standards to treat visitors (in the restaurant, reception, any other person in the hotel). Thanks to Mr Bikash Tharu for always keeping my room cozy and bringing homely vibes.

We booked a staycation in Dubai to celebrate my birthday, hoping to enjoy some quality time together with my sister. Upon arrival, we were warmly greeted by Mr. Rodel, who assisted us with our luggage. He was extremely polite and accommodating, making us feel welcome from the very start. However, our experience at the reception during check-in was extremely disappointing. When we approached Mr. Abdelrahman at the front desk, he requested our IDs. I provided my Emirates ID since the room was booked under my name. Unfortunately, my sister had forgotten her physical ID and asked if an electronic copy would suffice. He immediately said, “No.” She explained that she had forgotten her ID, and I asked what we should do since we had travelled all the way from Abu Dhabi. I asked if they would accept me but not my sister, what would be the point? His response was once again a firm, “No, we need a physical ID. We cannot do anything about that.” Despite our efforts to explain the situation, he remained unyielding, insisting that only I would be accepted and not my sister. I was extremely frustrated and disappointed, so I requested to speak with the manager. Abdelrahman continued with the check-in process without further engagement. When the manager arrived, he explained that while the protocol does indeed require physical IDs, they would make an exception this time. My sister acknowledged that it was her mistake not to bring her physical ID, but the way Abdelrahman handled the situation was far from satisfactory. His repeated refusals, without offering any alternative solutions, were disappointing—especially considering this is a 5-star hotel. Proper customer service, particularly in the hospitality industry, involves more than just saying “No.” It requires understanding, empathy, and a willingness to assist guests to the best of one’s ability. After check-in, we were assisted by Mr. Choi, who helped us with our bags and escorted us to our room. His professionalism and courteous demeanour were a complete contrast to our earlier experience. Mr. Choi, along with Mr. Rodel, Mr. Gaurav, and Mr. Rozaldo, truly stood out during our stay. They were all incredibly helpful, polite, and welcoming, and they deserve recognition for their excellent customer service. Overall, our stay was pleasant, but the check-in experience left a negative impression. I hope the front desk staff receive further training in customer service, particularly in terms of empathy and problem-solving. A simple “No” is not the answer to every situation, especially when guests are looking for assistance.

I was happy of the one who cleans my room for the past 15 days that is sanjeeb and suman who where always been super clean and tidy and trustworthy and when i called them for a special clean they always do it and wat i demand to clean they do it perfectly and the staff are very friendly thanks from the bottom of my heart from the amsterdam boy ronald😆😁😄😃😀🌷🌷🌷

**Review:** I recently stayed at this hotel in Dubai, and it was a fantastic experience. The location is excellent, placing you right next to the metro station and in a good heart of the city with easy access to major attractions. The rooms are very comfortable, providing a perfect retreat after a busy day of exploring. The value for money is outstanding, especially considering the range of services available. The hotel offers great amenities, including a well-maintained pool, which was a highlight for relaxation. However, the most impressive aspect was the customer service. The staff were incredibly friendly and supportive, making me feel right at home. Despite being on a very tight budget, I felt I received five-star treatment. If I ever return to Dubai, even with a larger budget, I would still choose to stay at this hotel. It contributed significantly to my wonderful experience in the city. Thank you for everything!
