There was some confusion with the reservation with this hotel as we had made a reservation a Highland City Hotel but the reservation was at Howard Johnson Hotel. Having said that this hotel was great. The hotel is in the older part of Dubai which is not a problem. There are some good eating places nearby which is a great... More

Rooms were good (not big though), furniture was really good, clean bedding, and clean bathrooms. Breakfast wasn’t the best, because every morning was same thing, not much variety either, but nevertheless it was filling. Swimming pool and area on the roof was really lovely. By the way, cannot swim if there a strong winds, as dangerous to be on a... More

Located in Bur Dubai, this is one of the many 3 star hotels along the stretch of Khaleed Bin Waleed Road. The closest Bus Stand is less than 5 minutes away (by walk - Al Ghubaiba Bus Stn) and the Metro (Rashidiya Line) is approx 2-3 kms away! We chose to stay at Highland City based on the reviews here...

The receptionist was not too friendly but the rooms made up for it. The train station is 10 dhrs away but apart from that, I would definatel definately stay there... More
