This is the first time I stayed in Holiday Inn although I have stayed in the area before in other hotels. The overall ambience of the property, facilities, convenient location and access to metro stations makes it highly desirable. I would like to call out Mr. Khurram from the reception and check-in area. He was very professional in making sure my check-in was smooth and I observed him interacting with other patrons as well. I hope to stay here again with my family in the future

Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Mostly everything was great besides one huge problem I had. I normally don’t allow my room to be cleaned unless I am inside for this very reason. The cleaner threw away my brand new clothing, jewelry and other accessories I purchased because he classified it as trash. It was in shopping bags. The cleaner denied it at first but I pressed on. They then went through the trash and got my brand new items out and brought them to me. However he had no business going through my stuff. If it was in a bag he should’ve cleaned around the bag. They forced me to allow them to clean and that was the result. I am still highly upset about this. When you clean you are not supposed to touch personal items no matter what. If it’s not in the trash don’t you just classify it as trash. Other than that the entire stay was great.

The stay was bittersweet of sorts. Started on a high note of great check in and very good standards and services by staff to finding dead insects in Asian breakfast which was acknowledged by chef and presumably corrective actions taken to the Hotel suddenly showing a cheap attitude to charging AED 20 for empty plates and cutlery one fine morning out of my 9 nights stay for which I paid AED 610+ per night. That was the lowest point and spoilt the overall stay experience. Given a chance again i would not stay with them rather opt for Novotel Al Barsha barely 500 meters away
