We express our gratitude to the hotel staff. I would like to note that everyone is very friendly and polite, so an atmosphere of good relaxation and good mood is created. We definitely notice. separate visit to Mubarak, waiter Ibrahim, Indir and Ako.
We stayed at Amwaj Rotana at the end of March — the weather was great, about 32 degrees, ideal for a holiday! The room had a stunning view of the Eye of Dubai and the Persian Gulf. It is especially beautiful at night — the Eye glows, creating a "wow" effect that you want to shoot over and over again.
The hotel is declared as 5 stars and generally corresponds to: clean, stylish, high-quality service. There is a gym, a swimming pool for adults and children — everything is in good condition. The public beach and metro are just 3 minutes away on foot, which is very convenient. There is a 24—hour supermarket nearby (30 meters from the entrance) - I helped out more than once.
On the downside, the hotel was 100% loaded at the time of our stay, and three elevators were clearly missing. Sometimes I had to wait quite a long time, especially in the morning before going out.
Otherwise, it is a great place to stay in Dubai, especially if the location and beautiful view from the window are important.
We have been vacationing with my husband since 01/21/2025 . I liked the hotel, everything is comfortable. Breakfasts and dinners were included in the tour. There is a buffet breakfast. Everything is delicious! Excellent attitude of the service staff. I especially want to thank Maria and Ako. The room was cleaned every day. View from the room to the sea.
Great lunch on Saturdays! Barbecue party. Delicious! My husband was congratulated on his birthday with a gift from the hotel , a birthday cake in the room .
There are shops and cafes nearby. To any wallet .
The sea didn't seem too cold for us) , we swam. Pure water , invigorates ! The sand is white and clean .
The rest was a success! Thanks
Very good for an unassuming tourist. My family and I have been vacationing for 10 days for the 2nd year from January 2 to January 12. Half board. There is everything for breakfast. Delicious porridges, all kinds of egg dishes. And other things for every taste. I don't have enough cheesecakes, but I didn't even find them at Starbucks. Nothing, you can survive 10 days. Lunch and dinner are the same. Everything is very tasty, the soups are peculiar, mostly very spicy. The waiters are friendly. Compared to January 24, there were more Russian-speaking staff in January 25. The rooms are cleaned every day, and in the evening they come in and ask if they need anything, and bring water.
We found a liquor store a 10-minute walk from the hotel. Marina Mall is 15 minutes away. We took taxis to the rest of the shopping centers. Mall of Emirates 50 dirhams, Dubai Mall 65 dirhams by taxi meter.
5 minutes walk to the sea.
The photo shows the view from the balcony. In the evening at 20.00 and at 22.00 there is a great view of the drone show.
The impressions are the best from the hotel.
The hotel is excellent, the staff is polite, there are many Russian speakers. We were satisfied with the rooms, beautiful view. The only thing was that the water in the room and the water in the restaurant tasted different. The room was as if from a tap(
We were with the children, so we chose full board and did not regret it, the food was delicious, there were several restaurants and a buffet on site, everything was excellent, a good selection of drinks.
The disadvantage is that there is no private beach, I think you can buy the sun beds that are located next to the hotel, which no one uses, because they want a lot of money for them, thereby raising the prestige of the hotel.
Great location!
It takes 5 minutes to the sea, 10-15 minutes to the metro, or 1 tram stop that stops right outside the hotel.
There is a 24-hour supermarket on site. Marina Molyu is within walking distance, and it's very nice to just walk around Dubai Marina or Bluewater Island.
The room itself is huge, about 130 sq. m. Although it wasn't exactly cozy.
On the plus side: 2 separate bedrooms and each has its own bathroom. There's also a guest toilet in the hallway. Large living room and kitchen. There are all necessary household appliances: a large refrigerator, stove with oven, dishwasher, washing machine with dryer. The furniture and appliances are old enough, but everything worked except the iron, which was quickly replaced.
Excellent driver at sea. We lived on the 2nd floor with a view from the balcony on the video. They say that the higher the view, the better.
Of the nuances:
Remember that the sockets are different. Don't forget the adapters. But actually, with the help of a plastic spoon / fork, you can push it in (pictured).
The air conditioners are not controlled. The remotes are password protected. They called a specialist to make it warmer, and at the same time he said the code from the remote control.
We had a rest for 2 adults and 2 children. full board, you could have limited yourself to breakfast and dinner, because all the restaurants are close and there are many. The hotel has 4 restaurants, a spa complex, and a gym. I really liked the hotel, it's clean everywhere, conveniently located close to both the sea and walking areas. A very customer-oriented hotel. The hotel has Russian-speaking staff: Marina, Ako, very nice girls! There are also Russian-speaking staff in the restaurant, they are very attentive, and there is also a Russian-speaking lifeguard in the pool. I have very good impressions.
The chic hotel of the Rotana chain! The reception area is very beautiful, there are 2 Russian-speaking staff, especially Marina. She helped us a lot. The rooms are beautiful, the cleaning is excellent. The views from the windows are gorgeous, but not in all rooms, you can ask to move to a higher and more prominent room.
There are balconies, for me it is a weighty choice in favor of this hotel.
Great restaurants, great buffet breakfasts.
There is a separate sofa in the room, in fact, an extra bed, for which they usually ask for money, but here it is included.
One of the disadvantages is very hard mattresses, very, my back hurt after a rest.
And wait a long time for the elevators. There just aren't enough of them for so many floors and visitors.
Well, I would like a bigger pool.
But the location is just top!
The hotel is cool in service, sincere in staff!
It seems to be urban, but there is a convenient access to the jbr through the pool area. Beach towels with a beach bag are free of charge, the set also includes an umbrella and a blanket - 25 dirhams.
Delicious and varied food, fruits, a children's corner with a chocolate fountain in the restaurant and vegetables with an interesting serving for children.
Japanese and Italian restaurants are delicious, Japanese shows are interesting.
In general, during the whole vacation, it seemed that they wanted to take care of you on vacation, which is not so common in hotels now. And in Rotan - at a high level !
To Dubai on jbr - I just want to visit them now) we were not in the same hotel in Marina, there is something to compare it with)
The hotel has a very cool location. Near the beach , metro , walking areas! And what a beautiful view from the window! The staff is very polite, always accommodating and resolves issues.
The food is delicious, the choice is small, but you will not stay hungry. We also went to an Italian restaurant. The kitchen there is also quite good.
The pool is heated in January, very comfortable.
The rooms are spacious and clean.
Amwaj Rotana rested from 05.12. To 17.12.2024. I liked the hotel. The rooms are spacious, the plumbing is all in working order. The towel is changed daily. There is a sea view from the balcony. The location is convenient, the metro is a 15-minute walk away. You can combine a beach holiday with excursions. The food is excellent. There are also meat and fish dishes. Lots of fruits and vegetables. Several types of high-quality cheese. For children, there is a children's table. Drinks are provided for dinner, which is not found in every hotel.The staff is attentive. There is always a Russian-speaking employee. The sea is 50 meters away, there is no beach, but they give out towels, an umbrella, a litter and 2 bottles of water. Is free.
We had a rest in the middle of December. Great hotel. Good location, convenient access to the beach. All shops and an exchange office are within walking distance. The food is excellent.
The only thing that overshadowed our vacation was that two weddings were played in the hotel restaurant one day. It is from 10 a.m. to 10 p.m. There was a loud trumpet outside, a lot of noise, dancing, drums, and song-dancing. Closed doors didn't help. The neighboring hotels were probably unhappy too
And the rest is normal!
A great hotel! I'm thrilled! Everything is clean and tidy. The service is timely. The food is excellent) the room is incomparable with a view of the sea! Everything works in the room, the air conditioner copes with the heat with a bang! The staff is polite, but they don't speak Russian) only one polyglot girl was) very convenient location of the hotel, near the tram stop, metro. The Mall is very close. We walked for our pleasure. There are also enough shops nearby. There is an exchange office nearby with a very favorable rate! The sea is two steps away. The only drawback is that all sun beds and umbrellas are available at sea for a fee. But you can also lie down by the pool on the territory of the hotel))) I'll be happy to go back there again!
Location and view from room 10 out of 10.
Breakfast is 5 out of 10. (it doesn't reach breakfast with other similar 5* hotels, fruits and vegetables are not ripe.,
The breakfast is generally excellent, but not for the 5* star segment.
Dinner at Horizon Restaurant 10 out of 10
For 130 dirhams, the very best in Dubai! What we liked (sushi, marbled beef steak, cakes are all super) the rest of the meat is hot and too spicy.
Everything is great, the best in Dubai for that kind of money for a family with children.
Special thanks to all the staff, they helped and responded to all requests quickly (a heater for children, additional blankets for children).
In general, the hotel is the most suitable place for a contingent of married couples with children.
The advantages are clean and cozy rooms and very good staff. The disadvantages are the lack of a private beach (there is only access to a public one, where you will have to pay for everything), and as a result, the beach becomes a dirty barrel with sprats. The pleasure is below average... The breakfasts at the hotel are not bad, but if you ask for a container to take something to your room, you will be politely refused. The territory of the hotel is too sparse for landscaping. In general, I would give no more than 3 stars.
The hotel is excellent, the location is very good. People specially come to this area for a walk. The food exceeded all expectations. We took breakfast and dinner. We changed dinner for lunch several times. Meat and seafood every day. I don't eat sweets, but I couldn't help myself here. The staff is very friendly and friendly. They will always prompt and help. Special thanks to all the staff of the Horizon restaurant
We had a vacation at the end of March 2025 with our family. I'll start with the restaurant. The choice of food is not big, there is a lot of mutton, the side dish is mainly rice, greens. They gave fish for breakfast, but it went to those who came at 8 a.m. for breakfast. It was often taken out to the chosen ones for tips. The lack of teaspoons that had to be extracted. Lack of salt in salt shakers, napkins. When asked to bring it, the waiters reacted very slowly, and everything was brought in about 10 minutes. Requests were generally fulfilled one per day. If you asked for tea, they don't bring you coffee. We tried to talk to the administrator, they nod their heads, but nothing changes.
You can rent sun beds and umbrellas at the hotel for money. But for some reason they were not always ready to give the right amount. And they began to limit it.
Overall, the service is very slow everywhere. Especially in the main restaurant.
Alcohol that is free of low quality, my husband started having allergies.
Desserts are served in small cups, which do not include teaspoons.
The all-inclusive system is also weird. In restaurants located on the territory, pasta is free, meat is for an additional fee.
The hotel does not have its own beach, you will go to the city beach, where there were a lot of Indians and African Americans. They came in huge companies, washed in the water, and started fights.
Very nice hotel, convenient location, excellent rooms and the overall atmosphere. The staff is of a high level, there are Russian speakers, I would especially like to mention the Ako administrator. Very friendly, in-touch and the main assistant of all Russian-speaking guests.
I highly recommend this hotel! Wonderful view from the window (the main thing is to choose see view), bed linen and towels are completely changed every day (they are not folded and folded neatly, but they are changed), including foot mats, very good varied food at any meal time. A few words about the pool - there is a view of the Ferris wheel, there are enough sun beds for everyone, they give out a tinder bag and a towel. You can walk to the beach (about 5 minutes) to the sea and then settle down in the Beach Club or just on the sand. In any case, it is very close to the sea. I've marked this hotel for myself and remembered it for the future!
We have been staying at the hotel since the end of April! We noted a good location
Nutritionally delicious and varied
Friendly staff! I would especially like to mention Sabrina, who speaks excellent Russian and will always help and prompt you in everything! With a smile and a good mood!
I recommend the hotel
Have a nice rest
The hotel is conveniently located near the beach, good cuisine, service. I definitely recommend it for holidays with children. The room for 4 is large, with a comfortable large bed and a pull-out sofa. We lived with children aged 8 and 13. Everyone is accommodated. Near the Marina embankment, it is convenient to take a walk in the evening.
Great location, private pools and close proximity to the beach. The menu is varied, the staff is very polite and courteous, there is a Russian-speaking staff, there is always the opportunity to ask for a favor or cleaning. The cafe is Italian, Japanese, generally for every taste. The rooms are in perfect order. There is a gym.
Great hotel! There are a lot of Russian-speaking staff, the service is at a very decent level. They see you off everywhere, they meet you, there are more than enough employees. Very clean rooms - despite the fact that the hotel is not new, the furniture, appliances and room facilities are in good, new condition. Cleaning every day, although it is a common thing - cleaning is treated very reverently here, if they could not clean the room, they leave a piece of paper under the door with the name of the cleaner, date, time and the reason why they could not get into the room (we had a flag on the door handle, do not disturb).
I was also pleasantly surprised by the compliment from the hotel, in honor of our honeymoon - a cake, cakes, fruits. It's a small thing, but it left a pleasant impression.
As for the food, we had a semi-boarding house, I recommend it to everyone, otherwise you will be tied either to dinner or lunch, as in full board. Breakfast and lunch/dinner are buffet style, the cuisine is mixed. Everything is very tasty, the products are fresh, with an adequate variety, the waiters bring drinks, no one is waiting for anyone, everything is fine.
There is a swimming pool on the territory, it helps to cool down in the heat, but you will not be able to sunbathe on the sun loungers, because of the height of the hotel, the shadow constantly changes position, covers different parts of the pool and sun loungers.
The sea is within walking distance, 2 minutes and on the sea, beautiful scenery, the beach is moderately crowded, there are not so many people, despite the fact that the beach is urban.
The location of the hotel is excellent, close to the island with a wheel, Dubai Marina and Mall, 10 minutes to the metro at an average pace. Very close to the 24-hour market, where you can buy everything you need. Two good exchangers are nearby.
We will definitely return to this hotel!
Nice hotel, in the center of Dubai Marina, music from morning to evening by the pool and outside, the beach is 2 minutes from the hotel. There is an elevator directly from the pool to the beach side. The rooms are cleaned every day, okay. Water is brought every day. The food in the restaurant is varied, I didn't like the dinner menu, but it's more like everyone's attitude to the dishes served. Who likes what? You can give the hotel 5. I would especially like to mention the Russian-speaking administrator of the Ako hotel, the girl is very friendly and helpful, always helped with any questions.

That's the end of a small family trip to Dubai. We are sitting at the reception and waiting for the transfer. It is difficult to assess the outcome of our stay in Balaly, as we are all overwhelmed with joy, happiness, delight and a little sadness due to departure. This is my first trip, and I'm sure it won't be my last.
Briefly for those who are still thinking about going or not, is it expensive, maybe to another place?
Dear fellow countrymen and not only, YES, YES, YES, pack your suitcase and go to Dubai. Rest is for everyone. And go for a walk, and look, and go shopping.
Our location is Jumeirah district, Amwaj Rotana 5* Hotel. The hotel offers the best possible comfortable conditions, and the service is courteous and attentive. Special thanks to the receptionist Hassan for his responsiveness, willingness to solve any tourist's question when he is in Dubai for the first time, and just for his charming smile. In general, all the staff at the hotel gives vacationers a great mood, in restaurants, cleaning the room, repairing the crane, lifeguards by the pool, administrators, everything around. Prompt execution of any request or wish. Delicious food, a very well-organized lunch on Saturday, it's just a real holiday. I have never eaten so many seafood and meat dishes anywhere else in this hotel. The chefs and restaurants of the hotel have the highest rating in their business!
In general, I am delighted with the hotel, I am delighted with the Emirates.
Thanks to the FAN&SAN tour operator and his guide Elshad Muradov. Transfer, first meeting, organization of excursions, we are in touch 24 hours a day. Everything is at a high level. You should not try to take excursions from third parties. Operator only!
A hotel that can be recommended to everyone, without risk! Great location, wide selection of different room categories, great pool and SPA! Restaurants on the level. But the highlight is probably the Lounge, which is located on the 25th floor. It offers the most beautiful view of the Wheel, Blue Water Island, Palm Tree and Atlantis, and of course Jumeirah beach. Access to the Lounge is provided to guests of High-class Club Rooms and Suites. By choosing one of them, if you are not looking for an all-inclusive Turkish, then even breakfast, not to mention half board, is not required to pay - the Lounge has breakfast, snacks, a light dinner and even a little alcohol at certain hours. In general, the hotel is quite consistent with 5*. Rooms and public spaces are regularly renovated. In 2022, they completely redesigned the Lobby on the ground floor with a beautiful atrium, and in 2023, the Horizon restaurant was renovated. We regularly stay at this hotel with the whole family and recommend it to friends!
I recommend a great hotel to everyone, there are a lot of Russian-speaking staff, the hotel staff always help, they will tell you. A large room with a beautiful view of the beach, there is also a swimming pool, spa, gym on site. The restaurants on site are excellent, there is a lot of choice. A sweet Russian-speaking girl Sabrina meets at the entrance to the buffet. The waiter Ibrahim constantly served us, special thanks to him, every time he knew what to bring from the drinks. At the reception, Ako helped us if there were any questions, very nice. Thank you very much for such a wonderful, interesting vacation 🌅
Excellent service, very polite and friendly staff. The products in the restaurant are always fresh and perfectly cooked, there are a lot of greens, sauces for all tastes. Excellent drinks, alcoholic and non-alcoholic.
I really liked the hotel!!!! The location is perfect - JBR beach, Eye of Dubai, Marina. The service is super -friendly, friendly staff, delicious breakfasts and dinners. The rooms are clean, the view is gorgeous.
I rarely leave positive reviews, but I really liked it here. The staff is top, friendly, responsive, they make concessions, for example, they settled us much earlier, which was very pleasant, all the guides were very surprised by this. The location is probably the best possible location, close to the beach, near the metro, a walking street right at the exit, in general, what you need. The food is top-notch, very tasty, for my taste, the dishes don't change that often, but there are quite a lot of them, so if the soul requires variety, then it should be enough for a rest period. We took breakfast + dinner and never regretted it. On one of the excursions we ate in Radisson, it was +- the same. Somewhere worse, somewhere better. My wife had a doctor, they came up to me, asked me delicately, congratulated me with a cake, my wife was very pleased. Even at peak load, there were no problems, except that it took a little longer for the waiter to bring a drink in the evening. Room cleaning is always done without any problems or unpleasant surprises. The pool was not used, the towel was taken quickly, conveniently, without any problems. In short, it's been the best hotel I've been to so far.
Great hotel. With a beautiful view. Very polite staff.I would really like to mention Ako and Muhammad. The rooms are clean. They clean it every day. The breakfasts are varied. Near the beach. Happy birthday. It was a pleasure. Thanks for the rest.
Great hotel. All rooms have a balcony with excellent sea views. The rooms are large. The beach is nearby. Metro 10-15 minutes on foot. The kitchen is on the level. A large selection. There are many retail outlets nearby. Nearby are McDonald's and other establishments.
The food at the hotel is excellent, varied, and did not get tired during the rest period. The location is good, near the beach and at the same time a lively walking area with many shops. The hotel staff is polite and attentive. The room is generally not bad, I did not like the bathroom (everything is old and the nails are rusty). The view from the room is beautiful. In general, I recommend the hotel, the overall impression is good. Price and quality.
The overall impression is positive. The view is really cool, the beach is urban, there are a lot of Indians who swim in their clothes and behave, to put it mildly, not very well. The room is nice, spacious, the cleaning is done every day, the staff is responsive and even without knowledge of English they try to help. There's not much variety in the food, almost everything is the same every day, but it's delicious. In the evening, it's great to walk around the Dubai Marina and not far from the Ferris wheel. The drone show is visible in the evening.
A wonderful place , wonderful people, and excellent service. The kitchen, the restaurant, the waiters , the room service are top notch . Thank you for a great time . You are the best! We will definitely come back again
I really liked the hotel. Good location. We lived in an apartment. There are dishes, appliances, pots. There's a store downstairs. You can buy everything you need. The beach is across the street. A walking street with lots of cafes and shops. It's a really cool hangout place in the evening.
