“Villa Rotana Dubai”
Hi,
My name is Shery, and I recently stayed at Villa Rotana with my family. We had a very pleasant experience during our stay, and the staff we interacted with were incredibly professional and helpful. Our kids especially enjoyed the property and the services offered.
The hotel's location is excellent—easily accessible to many of Dubai’s top attractions and situated right in the heart of the city, which made exploring very convenient.
I would like to extend my gratitude to the following team members who made our stay even more enjoyable:
Abdul - Reception
Christy & Lilly - In-house Reservations
Gopal - Housekeeping
Electrical Engineers - For promptly fixing the TV and washing machine
Supun - Concierge Attendant
Gym and Pool Guard - For maintaining a safe and enjoyable environment
Thank you, Villa Rotana, for a wonderful experience. We look forward to staying with you again in the future!
Best regards,
Shery

“Felt so welcome”
I am writing to share our experience from our stay at Villa Rotana on Sheikh Zayed Road, where we lived for about 10 months, from September 2023 until June 2024.
Our very first encounter at Villa Rotana was with Anne, and I cannot express enough how much of a pivotal role she played in our decision to stay with you. From the moment we walked through the doors, Anne greeted us with a warmth and sincerity that immediately made us feel welcome. She attentively listened to our needs, gave us a thorough tour of the rooms, and clearly outlined the next steps.
Once we made the decision to stay, it was Anne again, with her radiant smile, who ensured our move-in was seamless and comfortable. Her dedication and attention to detail truly set the tone for the rest of our stay. Anne is an absolute gem, and Rotana would be wise to nurture her growth within the company—her talents would shine even brighter in a managerial role. Please, do not let such an asset slip away.
Beyond Anne’s exceptional hospitality, we were also consistently impressed by the professionalism and friendliness of the entire team at Villa Rotana. From the prompt responses of the engineering staff when we encountered issues like a bathroom leak or an appliance concern, to the tireless work of the housekeeping team, everyone contributed to making our stay smooth and enjoyable.
We want to especially highlight a few more individuals: Yusuuf, who always went above and beyond to assist us and never left us waiting for answers; and Abdul, who seemed to always be there, working tirelessly with a keen eye for detail.
We also cannot forget the incredible team effort during the heavy rainstorm in April. The staff came together in an extraordinary way, not only managing the challenging circumstances but also opening your doors to help those stranded and seeking refuge. It was an inspiring display of compassion, and we know many people were grateful for your kindness.
Our stay at Villa Rotana was more than just a long-term accommodation—it became a community where we made lasting friendships. We will forever consider Anne a lifelong friend, and we look forward to returning to Dubai and, inshallah, staying with you again.
Thank you to the entire team for making our time at Villa Rotana so memorable. Keep up the amazing work.

“Its a home not a Hotel”
Starting with the warm welcome from Mr. Abdul and Mr. Supon in the reception, to the special main road view suite we got from Ms. Maricar with her positive and funny energy. Still remember the joke about her name being a car brand!!
The buffet breakfast was the shock of the stay! Really endless varieties of fresh and delicious food run by an attentive and smile-oriented team like Ms. Mel and Mr. Kisan.
The pool is small but breath-taking and overlooks the Burj Khalifa.
We also bumped into the hotel manager, Mr. Barakat, who welcomed us at the gym with an amazing and healthy smile while taking his training.
Villa Rotana’s environment is simply nice, cozy, family-healthy, with genuine love in the air. Will be our favorite in the middle of the Dubai city.
Last but not least, a very special thanks to Eng. Tarek, who helped me with a free charging socket for my car. Really nice & happy environment

“Wonderful accommodation and peace of mind”
It is one of the best hotels in Dubai in terms of quietness and its proximity to all services, laundromats and restaurants, and its proximity to Sheikh Zayed Road. The best thing about it is the friendly reception and their speed. I doubt that Sheikout is the fastest hotel.
They have all my respect and appreciation

“Still good but global level of customer care slightly decreased”
Thanks to some excellent staff members (e.g. Maricar and Abdul), this hotel remains quite good.
It is still a very nice place to stay, "human size" hotel (5 floors Vs city sky scrappers) that is well located and with nice roof top swimming pool and gym.
But compared to my last stay there in 2017, the level of customer care has slightly decreased. Some of the crew members (specially in the night shift) are not professional at all.

“Very good hotel”
The Rotana is ideally located 200m from the Business Bay metro station, approximately 30 minutes from the airport and 10 minutes from the Dubai Mall.
Very quiet despite its location, you are perfectly welcomed by attentive and available staff. We really appreciate the very varied breakfast and also the swimming pool.
The value for money is unbeatable, establishment to recommend.
