Getting there
Great for walkers
Places to stay are graded on a 0-100 scale. The higher the grade, the easier it is for travelers to find restaurants and things to do within walking distance.
We stayed for 5 nights at the Elite Byblos Hotel in Al Barsha. The hotel was very chic, clean, and quiet, with the advantage of being close to the Mall of the Emirates. The hotel staff were very friendly and professional.
The rooms were clean and elegant, with a suitable size. The hotel's toiletries were of good quality. The room view (on the 9th floor) overlooked the houses of the Al Barsha neighborhood.
The rooftop pool, offering a suitable and relaxing environment, perfect for sunbathing. Sufficient towels were provided for use around the pool area, and there was also a bar next to the pool.
There was a nightclub on the ground floor that guests could use for an additional fee if interested. The hotel's breakfast had a wide variety and very good quality.
Overall, considering the price, the Elite Byblos Hotel is an excellent choice for accommodation.

We had an awesome experience at the Elite Byblos Hotel during our 4 day stay! The staff was professional, helpful and friendly. We loved the location - just a block away from the Mall of the Emirates and to be truthful it was easy to move around - we would just call an Uber. The in-house restaurant offered a great menu with diverse choices. We dined there twice and were completely satisfied by the quality and deliciousness of the meals. We had everything from surf and turf to pizza and all were delicious. We were not there long enough to sample any of the Spa treatments but absolutely would have it we had stayed longer. We loved our stay there and would, with out a doubt, do it again!

This is a newish build hotel if a strategic location for solo, business and couples who wish not to be on or near a beach . Pros : Location , 5-10 minute walk from Mall of Emirate , 10-15 min walk to the metro station , so rounded by many restaurants and mini supermarket . Very safe area for solo traveler male or female Spacious room , well equipped and lovely sleeping bed Very clean hotel A lively American style bar with many screens . Reasonably priced for Dubai standard . Happy hours discount for resident Underground car park Fantastic working force , courteous , helpful and abrupt for action if requested . You feel it from getting to the front door all the way until you leave Reasonable breakfast not wow Cons Covid 19 rules adherence is not good The roof top pool and bar is a gimmick with no view while having a bath or sitting for a drink

We reserved a suite, but the room had a strong odor, which caused my daughter to cough continuously while we were inside. Her cough stopped as soon as we left the room. Additionally, the breakfast offerings were disappointing for a 5-star hotel, lacking variety and serving the same items every day. Overall, I believe the hotel deserves only 3 stars.

Location and the room is good! I directly went to the hotel as walk-in however as per the front desk they cannot give same rate as booking.com or any other booking channels even the manager cannot give. (Weird though) instead booking.com will take a commission. Anyway, i paid whatever in their system.
Concierge needs more attention on to deal to the guest with pleasant.
I also tried their lunch which is set menu. Ordered beef steak for main course and i was disappointed as i cannot eat the beef at all as it was too hard. I was so hungry so i just bite little of it. Tips: waitress should gave me steak knife and not the normal knife and i guess he is the manager who asked me how’s the food i honestly told him that beef is too hard. He replied to me and offer chicken instead of beef. So I disagreed.
One more thing, i hope next time you can have special rate for your in-house guest for the breakfast, lunch and dinner.
Thank you.

We asked for a twin room but were assigned a king room. We asked for a room close to the room of our friends, but we received rooms at opposite ends of the second floor. Our room was huge with "all the necessary advanced technologies", but no signage or instruction sheets were provided explaining how to operate the "advanced technologies", so we ended up sleeping with the lights on and the air conditioner cooling the room to 18 °C. The room's large clothes closet had no shelves and only one hanger. The bathroom was also large and came with a wide selection of toiletries but no bathmat and no towels. We asked the housekeeping department for hangers, towels and, also, extra blankets and they arrived promptly but no further housekeeping services were provided during our five-day stay because, as it turns out, housekeeping services are only provided if you figure out how to use the "advanced technologies" (a digital bulletin board beside the entrance to the room) to request them. In addition, no amount of "advanced technologies" could reduce the volume of the very loud music emanating from the hotel's nightclub until 3:00 a.m. Bring your own benzodiazepines to this hotel and heavy-duty ear plugs.

We booked this property before expo and I was a bit surprised that it had availability and was inexpensive. Upon my arrival (to the room) My doubts were cleared! The carpet, sheet, baby cot, wall, carpet, tissue box, all were dirty with stains. The hotel paid no attention to cleaning its rooms. To top it up we found a plastic spoon under our bed. Looks like they don’t even check what lies around. We ordered towels and water bottles on different occasion which took 20-30 mins on average, after making 2-3 reminder calls. The hotel was running on almost full capacity, as I understand, but the service standards were nothing close to a, claimed, 5 star hotel. The staff at reception and lobby are friendly and helpful.
