“Go to meydan Beach, Dubai Marina”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed January 24, 2013

Forget about the hotel (which i am sure is very nice) the place you MUST go when in Dubai is Meydan Beach- Cafe del Mar in Dubai Marina. The entry fee is not cheap at around £ 80 but well worth it for a treat, you get the entrance to the private beach with infinity pool, gym, and great service. besides the usual lounge, towel servie, you also get food and drinks credit at the beach bar/restaurant and you basically have a lunch and also nice glass of prosecco or otehr drinks...While you are sunbathing they bring you fruit, or later on lemon sorbet, and when the sun starts setting and everybody is tryign to get into the Cafe del Mar or have to wait outside trying to get on the guests list you are automatically in because you are already on the beach, and great way to spend the day and end it on the beach ....

Room Tip: it is only a beach the Medan hotel is not at Dubai marina, so I have not stayed there

“The Best stay”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed January 20, 2013

Very good place to stay and dine. Nice big rooms with all attractive comforts. Excellent view of race course from balcony. Viewed New Year fireworks at Burj Khalifa from Hotel Meydan. Complimentary breakfast is of excellent nature both in taste and in its variety. had stayed in two rooms, both give excellent view at different storey levels (3rd level and 8th level). had arranged the stay through Arabian Adventures (part of the Emirates group).

“Totally one of a kind resort destination”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed January 17, 2013

This hotel should be on everyone's bucket list of places to stay. Not only is it one of the most unique destination hotels in the world but also the longest on the planet. Service impeccable, rooms to die for and so much to do. If there is racing on you get to see it free from your private balcony as well as many other things to keep you amused and entertained. Try blowkarting or hunting or take in 18 holes of golf. The pool is out of this world and if you want beach, they have their own private beach club at Jumeriah. What more can I say, this is truly SPECIAL

Room Tip: They are all excellent with free wifi

“Excellent in every way”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed January 5, 2013

Stunning hotel, great suites, if you attend whilst racing on its fantastic but also worth a visit anytime, pool area is bit small for such large hotel, and its out of town but that's really not a problem.
Worth a visit believe me.
