The staff are very friendly and helpful. The breakfast buffet selection is vast. There was work going on to complete the promenade at the rear of the hotel, along the canal, so access was limited. The shower has very low pressure and did not maintain it's temperature, running from hot to luke warm constantly. The drive to a d from the hotel to anywhere involves 3 passes of basically the same road as you have to turn left out of the hotel and drive for 3-4 mins before going around and then coning back up the same road. And then you have to do rhe sanw thing again to around the other side of the canal. A bit annoying.

Property has nice view and rooms are clean. For a large family, getting rooms on a single level might be a struggle and also moving across rooms if not on same floor is a struggle. Alley leading to rooms has a carpets that smell musty. Restaurants are good and enjoyable. Overall, it’s a nice hotel with some quirks.

Excellent-awesome

Amazing… beyond our expectations. They ensured we got an early check-in since one of the kids wasn’t feeling well. The rooms were adjoining, which was perfect for our family. The rooms were cleaned daily, and the staff were incredibly friendly, from booking taxis to assisting us at the concierge. We’ll definitely choose a First Collection hotel on our next trip to Dubai.
