Amazing hotel, I enjoyed the view from my room, the staff was helpful especially Javokh, and the Manager Mr Hicham
The hotel is in the heart of Marina. It is my favourite hotel.
This is not the first time I have come and I will come again. The rooftop pool is very romantic.

Excellent location, the metro is close, it takes 7-10 minutes to walk to the beach, but in such locations it is a pleasure. Near the canal embankment, shopping center, cafes. The breakfasts were delicious, there was enough of everything, but most of all I loved the omelet (they cook right away), the dinners were wonderful buffet, we had lunch once on the day of departure according to the menu, but everything was decent. I didn't really like the coffee, but it was bearable)))
Cleaning is done every day, everything is complemented (remedies, coffee, tea), the hair dryer is strange, it was difficult to dry our hair, but we managed, my daughter could not use it))). Upon request, they brought an ironing board and an iron, one stopped ironing, the second burned a new dress (it would have been better not to iron))))
We were looking for Dubai chocolate, it turned out to be at the best price in the boutique of our hotel, the prices are decent, a wonderful hostess!!! The rooftop pool is small, warm and has sun beds. But since the sea is nearby, we have been there a couple of times and the sun was already hiding behind the nearby skyscrapers.
A good hotel, everything is decent, we can recommend it!

The hotel is on 5, the location is fire, it takes 10 minutes to walk to the sea across the bridge, where it is incredibly beautiful, there are a lot of cafes, shops, metro, we lived in a chic place at an affordable price, the breakfasts were delicious, linen and cleaning were every day, the beds are comfortable, light control and air conditioning on the bedside table (no need to get up) Yes, maybe everything is not very new, but our room was clean and cozy, the staff was polite! Of course, the disadvantage is that there is no balcony, but we did not sit in the room practically, the swimsuits dried out overnight! And many thanks to Svetlana from the store, she will always advise, prompt, help in communicating with the staff (many do not know Russian there) . So I definitely recommend it) we will come back again

Very cool location of the hotel) close to the metro, close to the beach) near various shops and even a pier within walking distance)) but there are shortcomings in the service, upon arrival there was a strong smell of cigarettes, they smoked in the room not long before our arrival... in the bathroom, the towel on which there was shampoo, gel and cream was dirty ((I put it on the floor - after cleaning it was returned to the jars again the same unpleasant..and the room itself, of course, already requires renovation, old furniture, a TV with 5 channels without Internet access. And the biggest disadvantage was that the room was insanely cold! And there was no way to fix it.… The food is delicious))) The pool on the roof is warm, but the sauna leaves much to be desired, and repairs are also needed..

The location of the hotel is very convenient because the sea and the metro station are within walking distance. There are many shops and food outlets around.
The food is varied because the dishes change every day, but at the same time the choice of dishes is very small.
The staff does not always resolve issues with changing rooms.
The rooms are clean, but already a little tired.
On the lower floors there is a bar and a disco that are open until 3 am. Music can be heard even on the top floor and it is not always possible to fall asleep. Additional noise occurs when visitors leave after the bar and disco, because double-glazed windows are single-chamber.

A great 5 out of 5* hotel. We are currently relaxing with a friend. The staff is helpful and very nice. We met, the room is beautiful. A friend has a birthday, they prepared, compliments from the hotel, Edisa is a wonderful man, they wrote off before arrival, she is the hotel manager, from the Rose restaurant, from Svetlana from the souvenir and gift shop at the hotel, the karaokn club was also congratulated with a cake and fireworks, there was a disco. Everyone is responsive and everyone helps. The room has everything, large, in turquoise tones. Cleaning every day. There is a pool on the roof, a very good idea. Sauna, gym, a lot of interesting things. The food is delicious and varied. There is everything. Excursions can be selected from the tour operator or from the hotel guide. The guide is Russian-speaking, Lena. Lena and Svetlana are great, as moms they all help and prompt, and helped us solve the issue of changing the number.The beach is not far away, it takes 10 minutes to walk, there is a round-trip transfer.
I recommend this hotel in the Dubai Marina area. Let's go back again.

We did not regret at all that we chose this hotel. The location is excellent, 2 minutes to Dubai Marina, there is a promenade where you can walk in the evening, a comfortable road over the bridge is 10 minutes on foot to the beach, DMCC metro and tram stop are 5 minutes away. We also really liked the hotel itself, a solid four, the staff is very polite, always smiling, the rooms are beautiful and cozy, cleaned every day. We took meals for breakfast and dinner, I can't say anything special about breakfasts, the usual standard is like everywhere else, there is juice, tea and coffee from drinks in the morning, but the dinners were very tasty, we didn't even expect that they cook so well here, as if in a restaurant, dinners changed, every day somethingthey gave us different things, there were fish, meat, and seafood, usually we are used to the fact that in other countries they do not cook very bland, tasteless, but here we just went with joy to dinner and everything we took turned out to be very decent. Drinks in the evening are paid, but juice and water with lemon are included, the rest is for an additional fee. The waiters are very nimble, as soon as they finish, they immediately remove the plates. There is a small pool with sun beds on the roof, towels are also provided there, separately for the beach and separately for the pool. There is a free gym. On the ground floor there are 2 bars with discos, anyone who wants to drink can go there in the evening. In general, I recommend it, if you are not a fastidious tourist and are not used to some luxury and luxury, then this hotel is for you, we have not identified any hard cons during the week of rest.

I definitely recommend the Marina Byblos Hotel! A wonderful hotel, super rooms, a 20-minute walk to the wonderful beach. And the breakfasts and dinners are simply delicious and varied. The area is cool, there is a place to walk and something to see. The metro is nearby. Blue Waters Island, where the Ferris wheel is located, is nearby, along a bridge from the beach, offering beautiful views, 10 minutes. Sooooo friendly and helpful staff, many thanks to every employee for your hard work! You are super! The rest was a success!

Great hotel! I liked everything! The beach is nearby, the sea is clean, the view is beautiful! The food is varied and very tasty. Very tasty cakes and pastries!!! The staff is very friendly. The beds and towels are clean. There was no balcony, however, but this is the only disadvantage. Shops are nearby. Special thanks to the store employee at the reception, Svetlana! He will always help, tell you and the store is amazing! If we come again, we won't think about it - just this hotel!

I visited this hotel 2 years ago, I had some impressions (generally pleasant)
1. The location is great. The hotel is located in one of the central districts of Dubai - Marina. It is very beautiful here, and there is absolutely all the infrastructure nearby: shopping centers, cafes and restaurants, more modest shops, metro, the beach is a 15-minute walk away, a beautiful artificial embankment is a two-minute walk away, it is very pleasant to walk especially in the evening. So the location is perfect.
2. The food is very good quality. There wasn't a single dish that made me feel uncomfortable. A very pleasant buffet. I advise you to take only breakfast and dinner, it is much more profitable.
3. The room itself is quite spacious with a beautiful view, two toilets and a large bathroom (a family room for three), there was a balcony missing) The staff bustled in time and provided another bed, since it is impossible to sleep on the couch) thank them very much for this. The main problem in the room was the air conditioner, there were some technical problems with it, or something else, I still don't understand, but the fact is that it was terribly cold in the room, and the temperature was incorrigible. Remember, there are ENGLISH adapters in Dubai, so if you have any left over from previous trips, be sure to take them. Or you can buy it directly at the hotel in the shop, they are inexpensive.
4. The hotel itself does not look big, while the lobby is quite spacious. I advise you not to pay extra for alcohol in the hotel, it costs A LOT. But we need to understand the realities and culture of the country. It's easier for tourists to enter alcohol shops, as they are usually located at the parking level (at least in the Marina Mall). Be prepared for the fact that there will always be a long queue of tourists from all over the world. But believe me, it's better to buy like this than to pay extra for alcohol at the hotel, the difference is huge.
There is a beach on the roof of the hotel, where you can relax on the sun loungers. Overall, all the interior spaces are spacious and pleasant.
That's why I recommend this hotel to you. Everything is at a very good level here, the main thing is just to know some nuances)

A wonderful hotel, the location is super, it is convenient to get to any location, the metro is 8 minutes, the beach is 10 minutes, shops, cafes are all nearby, and if not, you can get there. There is a free bus from the Atlantic to the Marina Mall and the hotel is 10 minutes away, gorgeous. I was afraid for the food, but I was pleasantly surprised by the variety and taste of the food. The chef has a separate respect, someone wrote about the eviction, they turn off wi-fi, there is no such thing. Go to the reception and everything will be connected. The room stock is tired, but if you don't bother, everything is fine. We will definitely be back, thanks for the hospitality.

Good location, to the beach, metro, Marina mall about 10 minutes leisurely walk. The staff is friendly and helpful. The breakfasts are good, the menu is almost the same, but of high quality. We took a room with a view of the Marina, it was gorgeous. There is a swimming pool on the roof, sun beds, a bar (there is beer). Towels for the beach and pool are different, you can take them every day.
The hotel has a mini-shop with a Russian-speaking hostess, she will always help and tell you, please contact. There is a sale of excursions, prices are the same as everywhere else.
The hotel is a little tired, but not critical. We didn't notice any more of the disadvantages.

This hotel can be forgiven many disadvantages for its good location. Around the corner is Dubai Marina, 7min walk - free JBR beach, 7min walk - DMCC metro station and tram station. From this location, it is very convenient and inexpensive to visit a huge number of attractions using only public transport. The hotel has a rooftop pool, the view is amazing. The buffet is very decent, we took half board, very convenient. There are shops and cafes around, nearby, 15 minutes on foot - Dubai Marina Mall. Also along the same metro line are the Mall of Emirates (inside Sky Dubai) and Dubai Mall (inside which there is a huge aquarium, Burj Khalifa and fountains). There is a rather significant drawback - loud music at night from a nightclub that operates daily. I hope they'll do something about it, because it's hard to sleep. The staff is quite decent, no complaints. There is a wonderful shop in the lobby with an amazing assortment and very friendly prices, it is possible to transfer from a Russian card to a Russian one in rubles, it is very convenient when you have already spent the currency or for some reason you cannot use Union Pay

The hotel has a very convenient location! Excellent service and delicious breakfasts, there is a rooftop pool.
The free beach is a few minutes away along a beautiful canal with yachts
The rooms are a little old... but you can close your eyes to that
Rooms are cleaned every day, water and tea sets are updated.
We were lucky enough to get a room on the top floor with a view of the Marina, even though we didn't pay extra for it.

The main advantage of this hotel is its location, 10-15 minutes to the sea in a straight line. There are pharmacies, shops and cafes along the way.
Overall, the room was clean. Cleaning every day. The air conditioner works well. Breakfast is normal! Scrambled eggs (several types) sausages, bacon, vegetables, fruits and pastries. There are yogurts. Tea and coffee are brought by the waiters.
On the downside, I saw cockroaches in the bathroom. (They are sleepy, they don't run away, they are obviously being starved, the hotel is dealing with this issue)
There are no Russian channels on TV

The location of the hotel is very convenient for recreation, hiking and business trips. Metro nearby, bay nearby, restaurants nearby, marina with yachts nearby, bars, karaoke, Marina Moll, etc.
There is a swimming pool, a gym, Parking, a disco+ bars+ karaoke in the hotel 😉 The food is delicious 😋
A great atmosphere and a great price tag for food at the Nell Gwynn bar during the long happy hour (for example, an excellent English Breakfast that hardly fits on a huge plate will cost only 39AED instead of 95AED). The waitress girls are friendly and have excellent vocal skills. Live music with karaoke in the evening at Nell Gwynn and at the Molodost club on the 1st floor will appeal to most :-)
One of the inconveniences is poor sound insulation :
1) from the 2nd to the 7th floor, a nightclub is heard until 3 a.m.;
2) behind the adjacent walls of the paired rooms, you are like in the 1st row with a candle for those who are trying to break the bed with rhythmic movements ;-)
3) on the 9th floor, unhappy guests will listen to booming and extremely unpleasant sounds from the energetic actions of people furiously using exercise equipment in the gym from 7 a.m...
Breakfast is a hearty buffet in the assortment, but... the price tag does not include coffee, so at the exit you are caught with a terminal in an attempt to charge 25AED for each cup you drink...
The pool is good with a comfortable adjustable depth from 0.9 to 2.5meters on the roof with a bar and a large number of sun beds. The location of the pool is controversial - with a view of the transport highway and on the opposite side of the building from the views of the picturesque side of the marina.
Conclusion (sincerely) = Settle on the 8th floor and you will have a great time here. Personally, I will come back with pleasure, or I will settle somewhere nearby and visit these cafes and bars in the hotel ;-)

A hotel with a really great location. On one side there is a road to the beach with a beautiful view over the bridge, on the other side there is a road to the metro and to the marina embankment and Marinamola. The breakfasts are good, I can't say that there is a large selection, but the breakfast is optimal, delicious fruits, eggs, sausages, everything is of high quality. The hotel itself is starvat, but we only spent the night there, we were satisfied. When you leave, the positioner turns on, when you come to the room, turn it off on the panel by the bed, otherwise you will freeze. Cleaning is daily.

Well, of course it's super! The location is a 10-minute walk from the beach, everything is nearby, the beauty is unearthly, there are many markets and cafes nearby. A little walk and Dubai Marina Mall, there is also a metro station. The hotel itself is very decent. The service for such a hotel is excellent. Breakfasts are like everywhere else. I would definitely go to this hotel. It's probably the 6th time in Dubai and I love it endlessly.

For, 4* is not bad at all. We took breakfasts, lunches, dinners, everything was delicious. Coffee is free only for breakfast. The numbers are normal, a little outdated, but everything works. The staff is friendly. There are many Russian speakers in the hotel. Of the cons: there are no balconies, there is no private beach. There is no shade on the beach, rent of 2 sun beds and an umbrella: 6 thousand per day. To get beach towels, the hotel takes the room key - it's uncomfortable, because the key is given only 1. The food is normal, fresh. Fish for dinner, omelets are made for breakfast.

We had a vacation in December with a friend.
Excellent service! I am glad that the reception staff knows Russian.
The food is good. The pool is clean.
Rooms are well cleaned. It would be a plus if the rooms had European socket adapters. 😁
Location - 15 minutes from the sea, JBR beach, nearby there is a supermarket, cafe and even a shopping center.
There is an air conditioner in the room, it was good for us, it worked when the balcony was closed.
The only thing that can be noisy is that there is a highway nearby.
Pleasant sea air.
I recommend it.

He definitely deserves his 4 stars. Very convenient location of the hotel! A 10-minute leisurely walk to the beach, along the way we admire the beauties of the canal and the pedestrian promenade. It's a 5-minute walk to the metro, and we're heading there wherever our hearts desire.
I read other reviews, what can I say: I can't say anything about sound insulation - we lived on the 6th floor and we didn't hear the word "at all" from the club. Meals breakfasts and dinners the buffet is quite varied, the child will also have something to eat + for breakfast you can order a variety of omelets from the chef on the terrace. scrambled eggs that will be prepared for you immediately within 3 minutes. About coffee, the truth is only partially true - tea/coffee is free only for breakfast, black or with cream, but cappuccino, etc., will be for an additional fee.There is a fee, but there is no limit, and the second and third cups will be poured. Plus, do not forget that there is a kettle in the room and when cleaning, they replenish the stock of tea and coffee in the room every day, which is also included in the room rate. Once we decided to have lunch, and here I completely agree, it's better not to take lunch here. The rooftop pool is great and small, but I didn't observe the queue there, you can come at any time and there will be free sun beds, because towels are given out only for a key, it's not quite correct, you can leave the key, or you can just leave a deposit of 20 AED for a towel and get them back upon delivery. As for the rooms, the rooms are quite neat and clean, and they are already tired, but what can you do? The staff is very friendly and attentive. In my opinion, the only and main disadvantage is that there is no balcony and there is nowhere to dry things. I can definitely say that I would check into this hotel again. Have a good rest, everyone.

A wonderful hotel. We did not regret that we chose her. The location is top. The excellent free beach is a comfortable 10-minute drive through the urban landscape. The metro and trams are 7 minutes away. There are trams on different routes, but we managed to use only those on the subway. You can easily get to Palm Jumeira, to the monorail. There is a free shuttle service to Outlet Moll. There is a beautiful promenade with yachts nearby, where you can just walk, run or ride a water tram for 7 dirhams to Bluewaters (there is another inexpensive route, but you did not have time to try it during your stay). The room itself is good, something old and shabby was not noticed. The room has a kettle, tea, coffee, sugar, cream, water, refrigerator, safe. They cleaned every day, towels were changed as well. A cockroach was spotted and killed in the bathroom. The air conditioner was turned off more often than it was turned on, because, apparently, centralized air conditioning was still working. The breakfasts are mixed. Unfortunately, there are a lot of delicious pastries (in our opinion, cinnamon buns turned out to be the most delicious). There were always good fruits, fruit salad (even the youngest son ate, although it is difficult to get him to eat fruit). You can comfortably observe fasting/veganism if necessary and desired. Tea and coffee for breakfast on request. We haven't tried coffee. The children were leaning on the juices. I only drink tea for breakfast, I was a little stressed by the need to ask for tea every time, but this is uncritical. There is a rooftop pool, the water is warm, visits once a day, open until 23, towels are provided. There is a sauna, a gym, but not used.

A very nice old hotel, a fire for your money.
The interior was touching, old, but clean, and you can see that it used to be a very expensive and prestigious hotel, but the years have taken their toll.
I would like to mention the staff separately: they are very polite, smiling, answer all questions, even if you ask the same thing 50 times.
Very tasty and varied food, we regretted that we only took breakfasts, because we also went to them for dinners.

Very good breakfasts for four people. Good location. The price is low. In general, you can spend the night. But I wouldn't recommend living longer than one night. The hotel is old and very shabby. We stay there when we arrive at karaoke (located in the hotel on the 1st floor) and stay overnight when we don't want to return home in the morning. The staff is helpful and very pleasant. I would rate it as a three, but it doesn't pull 4*.

Everything is fine, choose rooms with a view of the Marina, everything is within walking distance, starting from the beach (10 minutes impressively mixing), and you do not need to wait for any transfer (horror), ending with entertainment, metro, shop, Cafes, everything is nearby. The breakfasts are huge from 6:30 to 10:30, I didn't have lunch or dinner, so I was always on the move. Cleaning every day, always clean towels, communication in English, but the school curriculum is more than enough. This is not a typical hotel (pretentious views), but a strong 4. Friendly staff (Pakistan, Philippines), all smiling and helpful. And of course, that really infuriated me, since the center of the universe is really annoying in the evenings with Lamborghini and Ferrari exhaust. (GROWL)

A small, cozy hotel, we had breakfast and dinner, the buffet was not very varied, but the food was very tasty, everything was quite enough. The rooms were cleaned every day, there was a kettle in the room, 2 bottles of water, tea, coffee, sugar, cream were brought daily, The big plus of the hotel is its location, everything is nearby, 10 minutes to the beach, 5 minutes to the metro, 2 minutes to the promenade along the bay. On the ground floor there is a small shop where you can buy souvenirs, dates, perfume and much more, the prices are very good, you can safely buy, you will not find cheaper. Special thanks to the seller of this shop, the Russian-speaking girl Svetlana, she willingly helped us, and not only us, but all Russian tourists in all matters, because there is no Russian-speaking staff there, she is very responsive and friendly, You can also rent an umbrella for the entire stay for a small fee.

A great option for a budget holiday in the center of Dubai, the surface metro is across the street, it is convenient to get to Burj Khalifa and other attractions, malls, etc.
The room is spacious, old, but everything is there for a comfortable stay. It is better to take the hotel for breakfast, and then the breakfasts are simple to put it mildly. If you are fans of five-star hotels with red fish, you are definitely not here. The hotel is urban, I just spent the night here and left 👌🏼 for the very fussy

They put us in a smoking room and, of course, it doesn't smell very nice. There are no adapters for sockets in the hotel, but there is one connector in the room that fits our plug, + 1 USB connector.

We stayed at the hotel in October 2024. The hotel is not bad. We lived on the 7th floor. The hotel staff is friendly and responds to calls quickly. There is a shop at the hotel. The majority of Russian speakers. The staff does not speak Russian. Lena and Sveta helped in this well
Lena is a hotel guide. And Sveta is a salesman at the hotel store. If it wasn't for them, I don't know how they would have figured it out. They are very good friendly young women. I would like to say separately about the guide of the tour operator fansan Victoria Grekova. The attitude towards customers is simply outrageous, disrespectful and boorish. If you do not buy an excursion, then there is a threat that she may not take care of the return transfer. When talking, he interrupts , shuts his mouth. Victoria, with her behavior, failed to overshadow the impression of a vacation

The advantages of the hotel. Location - near the Marina embankment, close to the beach, near a minimarket, supermarket, cafes, restaurants, within walking distance of the Marina Mall. The staff at the entrance to the hotel are men in beautiful uniforms - butlers, polite, open the doors, help with luggage, call a taxi, special thanks to them. The rooms are clean, the guys clean well, the carpet in the room is carpet, the sockets are not Euro, but you need to try all the sockets, you will find 1-2 suitable ones. The windows don't open. If something does not work in the room, you can press the button on the device on the bedside table - master, There are no Slippers and a bathrobe, but you can ask. The air conditioning system is common, it works well, it's cool in the rooms, if it's cold, just turn off the air conditioner on the unit on the bedside table with the off/on button when you arrive. The rooms overlooking the Marina have a very beautiful view. The breakfasts are good, but there are too many people, it's better to go early. There is a small but deep pool on the roof, the water is heated, it works late, you can take towels there, there are sun beds, tables, a beautiful view, we swam.
Minuses. Upon check-in, they gave another room, cheaper, not with a view of the Marina, as indicated in the voucher and which is a little more expensive. A day later, after an argument at the reception, the girls were still moved to our room. Get your number, which you have paid for. Restaurant: I do not recommend lunch and dinner, it is expensive, the choice is small on the menu, not very tasty, the staff is not too polite.. Also at lunch, the employee said that the terminal was not working and asked for cash, do not be fooled by this. We went to dinner on the Marina embankment at Oats &Co, 7-8 minutes close, delicious, prices are adequate. In general, I put 4, mainly for the excellent location, the courtesy of the butlers at the entrance to the hotel, good room cleaning, good general air conditioning and coolness in the room, a beautiful view of the Marina from our room. I advise you to book Marina View rooms, very beautiful view, we had room 502.

The hotel is not bad, a little tired, but not critical.
By room: We had a room on the 3rd floor, 317. The room is large, the bed is large and comfortable, the air conditioner works perfectly - quiet and cools quickly. It's bad that the room doesn't have a balcony - wet clothes can be hung in the bathroom on a string, but they don't dry out at all overnight, and it sucks. (We agreed with the pool staff and left things on the roof by the pool at night, in the morning we took the dry stuff). I liked that the room has a bathtub and a rain shower. I didn't really like the work of the water - it feels like a stream of hot, then cool, and it's not very pleasant. If you take a bath, then it's normal.
On food: We took breakfast - the food is quite monotonous, some dishes change every other day. There are pineapples, oranges, apples, watermelons from fruits every day. 2 types of yoghurts, blueberry and strawberry, are very tasty. Every other day, pancakes or pancakes stuffed with banana and chocolate are delicious. And everything else is like everywhere else - several types of sausage, cheese, scrambled eggs are different every other day and many different delicious puff pastry. Lunches and dinners, if taken separately, cost 85 dirhams per person. We preferred to have dinner in cafes near the hotel, for two people the average check was usually +/- 100 dirhams, so it is more profitable to go purely for breakfast or without food (breakfasts here are 75 dirhams per person, well, you understand)
Pool: on the plus side, it is open until 11 pm, whereas in most other hotels it is only 7-8, so in the evening it is very exciting to sit and chill in it. He is on the roof, the view is beautiful, there are not very many places, but they are watching this and they will not give you towels on the sunbed for half a day, a maximum reservation for an hour, then the employee will release him and offer him to other people, so that's enough for everyone.
The water is cool in the morning, but it warms up in the afternoon and becomes quite warm (

We have been vacationing in Marina Byblos since February 17th!
First, about the hotel itself!
He's pulling for his four! Not big, cozy, without a crowd!
The advantages that were important to us: the convenient location of the hotel from the sea is 15 minutes on foot to the beach, located opposite the Ferris wheel (the beach itself is not large, there is a deep descent immediately, in this it is inferior to Kite Beach, which is larger and cleaner and with gradually increasing depth, which is good for children).
DDMC metro station, also nearby 10 minutes to the hotel. There is a pool with warm water and a nice view on the roof of the hotel! The sauna is small, but also pleased with the good heat, you can turn on the water and enjoy the steam! It works until 23.00, which is very convenient! The breakfasts are good too! Coffee is served from a coffee pot, tea too! Lots of pastries, halva, nuts, dried fruits, sausages, bacon, cheeses and sausages! There is yogurt and sliced and canned fruits! Omelet and fried eggs are prepared separately, poached eggs and other options are available. Hot dishes include French fries in batter, beans and chickpeas, sliced vegetables! Everything is delicious! The staff is friendly, the cleaning is good, on demand and they respond immediately to requests!
Svetlana is a very accepted salesperson in the store at the reception! She will answer any question, help with purchases, and what is very good is that you can pay with her in rubles! We already ran out of dirhams on the last day and we paid for the purchase in rubles using the exchange rate, by transfer through Sberbank!
A representative, a guide from the FUN SUN tour company, also answered all questions and helped with tips and excursions!
Cons - the hotel is not new, tired carpet and towels! On the walls in the bathroom, something crawls around the bathtub, but the most important thing that I didn't like was there is no balcony and there is no place to dry a swimsuit, nothing dries in the bathroom!!!
On the first and second floors there is karaoke and a nightclub, a restaurant! I've heard loud music a couple of times! But it didn't bother us on the 7th floor! Considering that we only came to sleep at the hotel, the little things didn't particularly disappoint. Towels were changed every day! Cleaning is also every day!
I really liked the rooftop pool and sauna, although small, but the heat is good! It started raining unexpectedly for us in Dubai for a couple of days and the sauna was very much in the theme!

Convenient location-within walking distance of a perfectly clean promenade and the sea, the Marina Mall shopping center has a lot of cafes/restaurants /pharmacies/shops. A doorman will meet you at the entrance and help you with your luggage. The reception staff is very attentive and smiling. The hall is quite large, there is a "sofa area"
, the restaurant, as for me, is not enough.. the food is not very diverse, especially for cereals and first courses, the coffee is just disgusting 🤢
(For comparison, the Rosa Khutor buffet is three times better)
The rooftop pool is nice, but there are not enough sunbeds, be prepared for this)
The rooms are very tired, the furniture should have been replaced a long time ago. Also be prepared to meet with cockroaches🤷♀️ it was a shock for me in general 🤯
Also, the socket connector is different and no one will offer you an adapter, think about it yourself)
To summarize, there are a lot of nuances for a four-star hotel. I won't stop here next time.

It's generally fine.
The most important thing to understand is that you are paying more for the location, as the hotel itself is no longer new. But you won't find anything in the Marina area for that price.
(+) an area where you can take awesome photos, 100 m to the metro station, 200 m to the beach, an alcohol store around the corner. I really liked the staff's attitude at the buffet - everyone was very caring. The food is normal. I was pleased with the pool on the roof - it is heated!!! And the sauna was working!
(-) Of course, the music from the nightclub can be heard up to the 5th floor - this is a problem. Yes, there are places with mold in the bathroom, but this is not critical.
(!) the air conditioner is controlled not on the wall, but on the bedside table - call the staff they will teach you everything, plus they will tell you a life hack how to turn off the air conditioner when you leave the room.

Nice hotel. I was passing through, very friendly staff, there is a souvenir shop on the 1st floor, there is a Russian saleswoman Svetlana and you can pay for the purchase with rubles by transfer to a Russian card (useful if the currency has run out).
The prices and the course, of course, are not the most favorable, but in emergency cases it is the best.
