"It is in a nice and convenient part of town. They did not have good directions for getting into the property. Did not even explain that there was another bathroom to use with a shower which would have been nice considering the bathrooms were always occupied. Worth the stay, but could have been better. "

"From the address provided via Expedia, it is impossible to find this property. Had it not been for a caring and persistent taxi driver, I would never have found it. This accommodation is one large apartment with 5-6 bedrooms. You are renting a bedroom and have access to the kitchen, living room, etc., shared with anyone else who is staying there. After finally finding the place after 2 hours of searching, I left and checked into the Ramada next door. "

"I wasn't even welcome! They left me on the street and a guest, to help me, went to reception and brought back the following response from the woman who was working at the time: that I had made the reservation on the same day and that things didn't work that way. Extremely rude and not true, as I made the reservation 12 days earlier. I was left alone on the street at 3 a.m., with three suitcases and nowhere to go. "

JW Marriott Marquis Hotel Dubai

JW Marriott Marquis Hotel Dubai

10/10 Excellent
"Our stay at JW Marriott Marquis Hotel Dubai was exceptional. The room was immaculately clean, extremely well-maintained, and offered a stunning view that truly elevated the experience. A special highlight was the breakfast at Kitchen6, one of the most lavish and impressive breakfast spreads we’ve ever had, with incredible variety and quality. Everything felt seamless, luxurious, and thoughtfully done. A fantastic stay and highly recommended."
