Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offers lovely and spacious rooms that were excellent, although cleanliness could be improved. The service is fantastic, with staff going out of their way to accommodate guests. The location is perfect for a serene and quiet holiday, but it might be far from some attractions. The dining experience is good with a decent selection. The facilities are well-maintained, ensuring a pleasant stay overall.
My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. While the rooms offered amazing sea views and were very clean and quiet, there were issues like dust in some areas and a lack of hot water initially. The staff, especially Mohammed Rafat, was incredibly friendly and helpful, even granting me a room upgrade during check-in.
The hotel is at best a 4-star level with very clean rooms and helpful staff. It offers a good view of Burj Al Arab, Palm, Anantara, and Atlantis. The service is full of attention from the moment you arrive till the end of your stay. The location is perfect for a beach holiday but a bit far from exploring Dubai without a car or a long walk to the tram. The dining experience lacks high-quality produce for a 5-star hotel.
My stay at the hotel was delightful with clean and comfortable rooms offering a great view of Burj Al Arab, Palm, Anantara, and Atlantis. The service was top-notch, especially thanks to Gregory and Morad at the reception. However, the location, although scenic, was quite isolated and not easily accessible by public transportation. The dining experience was a mix of highs and lows, with some dishes not meeting expectations.
My daughter's birthday celebration was delightful at this hotel. The room on the 5th floor offered breathtaking sea views and was exceptionally clean and quiet. I spent 4 amazing nights here, thanks to the friendly and helpful staff, especially Mohammed Rafat, who made my stay fabulous with a room upgrade.
The hotel offers spacious rooms that are nice and clean, though some areas need maintenance. The staff is friendly and always ready to assist, but noise from nearby construction can disrupt your stay. Make sure to have your card or cash on hand. The on-site dining provides a good variety of options, especially during dinner time. The location, while distant from the city center, offers a quiet ambiance at the cost of longer commutes. Overall, a comfortable stay with minor inconveniences.
I had an amazing stay at the hotel for 4 nights. The rooms were wonderful, clean, and perfect for a getaway, located on the 5th floor with stunning sea views. The staff, especially Mohammed Rafat, was friendly and welcoming, making my stay fabulous. However, housekeeping missed cleaning our room until we called them, which was a bit disappointing.
The hotel offers below standard rooms but a nice and clean atmosphere at night. It's essential to bring your card or cash with you. For a great, relaxed stay at The Palm with excellent value for money, the staff was fantastic, particularly Azeem who greeted us every morning with a smile. The service was top-notch, very nice, polite, professional, and accommodating. The location, while full early and a bit far from the city, provided a picturesque view right at the beach. Dining, especially during breakfast, was a real delight with healthy options.
My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. The rooms were full of dust and having no hot water in the shower until calling for maintenance was a hassle. The promised sea view was obstructed by surrounding buildings, and our room was often missed during cleaning, so it wasn't as clean as expected.
The hotel offers incredible rooms of great size, with friendly staff always happy to assist. However, the air conditioning issue causing a lingering BO smell was a significant drawback during my stay.
I had a fabulous 4-night stay at this hotel with wonderful sea views, clean and quiet rooms, and friendly staff. Special thanks to Mohammed Rafat for the upgrade during check-in. However, some maintenance is needed on the balcony, which was a bit small for two people.
I had an amazing stay at this hotel with wonderful sea views from my room on the 5th floor. The rooms were clean, quiet, and the staff, especially Mohammed Rafat, made my stay fabulous with a room upgrade. However, the rooms are not soundproof. Having a balcony with a palm view and hot chocolate provided made it extra special.
Staying at the hotel was a magical experience with its breathtaking vibe and wonderful sea view from the room, although there was a noticeable bad smell. The presence of a bathtub added a touch of luxury to the room.
I had a mixed experience at the hotel. On the positive side, the rooms were spacious with a full glass view and had comfortable colors, offering a simple and elegant interior. However, there was a cigarette smell in my room that was quite unpleasant, and I wish they had confirmed my smoking preferences beforehand. On the bright side, my room was also ready earlier than expected, which was convenient.
