I stayed at the Ritz-Carlton Dubai for three nights while on a business trip and was thoroughly satisfied. I agree with some of the other tripadvisor reviews that attribute a special charm to the hotel precisely because it is not housed in a gleaming modern space of glass and steel. I might describe it as a fusion of Middle Eastern... more

We went to the ritz-carlton dubai following 2 nights at al-maha on honeymoon in Sept. Our initial impression was one of wow...lovely driveway, attentive staff and elegant reception. Unfortunately we were a little early to check in and were eventually offered a coffee in the breakfast/lounge area. They didn't tell us we could order cake too... Eventually got to check... more

Truly luxurious and one of the best hotels I've stayed in. Can recommend it everytime. more

Dubai - the craziest place in the world, hundred constructions where ever you go, a skyscraper a day......total madness. The Ritz-Carlton a smaller luxury retreat surrounded by sky scrapers which don´t disturb you. the construction site of "The Palm" nearby, but not really disturbing. excellent service, beautiful beach, excellent italian restaurant "Splendido". overall a lovely place for a couple- not... more

Overall a great stay at the RC. Mixed reviews recently but we were not disappointed. Staff worth a mention as they do relaise this is a five star hotel and the service they give is therefore very good.

Our room was spacious, comfortable and well-decorated -- a cross between European luxury and... more

Sorry folks. After having just returned from this property, I am severely let-down. In fairness, I think I had been built up from reading the rave reviews on this site and forum and it did not live up to the expectations. I booked at Club Level. The Good * Bedrooms are what you would expect from the Ritz Carlton: Comfortable,... more

For the 2nd time in 6 months, Ritz-Carlton fails to deliver on its reputation. Had a good start when i arrived off the early morning flight and was greated warmly & taken to my room (although i met up with other guests off the same flight who were not so lucky and had to wait until 3pm). The room itself... more

If you only go to Dubai once stay in this hotel it is the best!!! more
