Spacious clean rooms. Enough amenities. Very good breakfast with some choices. Friendly hard-working staff. We specially book this hotel thinking for long term luggage storage, but we had to take our all the bags for our seven-day trip, because security at the hotel did not give permission for long term storage. Looks like security has more power than the management of this hotel! (We used to store our luggage in other hotel without any problems) We had noisy upstairs people, and they started coming to rooms at 3 in the early morning and made packing noises, big kids running/jumping, banging sounds for over one hour every day. Once we complained to front desk two times still nothing happened, so we went knock their doors personally to stop that issue. We stayed seven days and same trouble every day, we gave up complaining to staff as they could not solve that issue with those people!! We paid extra to get Creek view rooms but did not sleep properly 7 days. The staff work hard to keep this hotel clean all the time, nice flowerpots. The Bellman Omar, room attendant Wazir and breakfast cook Akshan are always full of smile and very friendly with us and other guests. Big thanks to dining room staff.

Good location, friendly staff and comfy beds

We enjoyed our stay, the room was spacious and comfortable. We didn't get to try out the breakfast or other facilities. I would like to suggest fitting ceiling fans so the aircon doesn't need to be run so much (our aircon was quite loud). Also, there was a faint smell of stale smoke - I am a fan of non smoking floors. Overall, I would definitely stay here again.

I recently had the pleasure of staying at Reviera Hotel in Dubai, and I must say it was an outstanding experience from start to finish. The hotel itself is immaculate, reflecting high standards of cleanliness and comfort. Its prime location is undoubtedly one of the best, making it a perfect choice for travelers. The food was nothing short of excellent, offering a delicious international buffet infused with the rich flavors of Middle Eastern cuisine. The breakfast chef was not only highly professional but also genuinely caring—engaging with every guest, explaining the dishes, and even personally ensuring the dining area was perfectly maintained. The hospitality at Reviera Hotel is truly remarkable. Without hesitation, I would rate the entire staff five stars—from the exceptional hotel manager, Mr. Mustapha, to the dedicated porter, Omar. Mr. Mustapha's professionalism and kindness stood out when I faced an issue with my booking due to an honest mistake. I had unintentionally selected the wrong dates through a third-party platform (Expedia), but he graciously approved the cancellation and even reached out to Expedia on my behalf. His generosity extended beyond this gesture, as he personally invited me for tea at his desk—a level of hospitality I had never experienced at any other hotel before. Special thanks go to porter Nazeem for his kindness in lending a phone charger to my niece, as well as to front desk manager Abdul Rahman, whose professionalism and warm hospita

Really pleased with the service offered, kind and welcoming staffs. The hotel goes above and beyond to ensure your stay is worthwhile. Not the most modern but it has lots of character and charm. Nice location in the bustling Baniyas road, close to the creek and Metro station with cab hailing just outside the hotel, 12mins drive to the airport at low traffic times.

An older hotel, it seemed, but very well kept and with a lot of interesting character. Everything was very clean, staff friendly and efficient, room spacious and breakfast interesting, delicious and well presented. I recommend this hotel, if you want something with more of an older Arabic character and different from the modern style.
