Hyatt Regency Dubai Hotel

We ate dinner at the Hyatt Regency Hotel in Dubai at their revolving restaurant. The views are out of this world. The food is very good and is buffet style so you can eat as much as you like. The choice was excellent covering a range of hot and cold dishes with wonderfull desserts. Please try the American prime rib roast beef with the gravy it was the best we ever tasted and my husband had four helpings.

We have just returnded from an 8 night stay and i hope i have provided here a fair review to help other travellers. The hotel is very nice, rooms are excellent, clean and spaceous. The reception area is an open souless place with none of the touches that make Dubai's 5 star hotels outstanding (this is our 7th hotel in Dubai). The photo supplied by trip advisor above is the Grand Hyatt Dubai, so don't be misled, go on the hotel website for the photos. We had some little niggles that the hotel could not/ would not resolve, they put our 15... more

I have just got back from the Hyatt Regency after staying here for a week with my family. I had the most amazing time and the hotel is lovely. Yes there are quite a lot of businessmen but there are in many hotels in dubai. The reception staff are very efficient and helpful, we arrived early morning, not expecting to check in till 2 o clock but were alllowed straight into our rooms which was great after a long night flight. The club olympus includes everything from a gym to table tennis and squash. The pool is a decent size and there was... more

We have just returned from a 6 day trip to Dubai where we stayed at the Hyatt Regency. A lot of review sites said it was a great hotel but a poor location. I have to disagree - it is a fair way from the beaches and construction sites of Dubai but is in walking distance to the Gold and Spice souks and a short cab ride (which are cheap) to most of the old Town on both sides of the creek. The hotel was spotless, the staff very helpful and the rooms were spacious, clean and modern. I am fussy and we could not fault it. The hotel... more

It was my first trip to Dubai so thought I'd treat myself with a nice hotel and the Hyatt didn't let me down. It is a large and not very attractive building from the outside but when you enter the lobby you realise what's ahead. The check-in staff were superb and noticed I had a late flight onto Colombo at the end of my stay so organised a late check-out for me. The room was outstanding; plenty of space, huge bathroom, nice view out towards where they are building 'The World'. Used one of the hotel's eating places - there are plenty - and... more

After three weeks of travelling around the region I just wanted something comfortable to stay in for two nights before going back home. I was very pleased with the suggestion of the travel agency in the airport arrivals hall to stay at the Hyatt Regency. (not to mention the excellent last minute deal they got for it!) This hotel is a little further north than a lot of the newer ones, situated in the older part of dubai. But it is extremely close to the Gold Soukh. If you want to be close to the beaches and the newer Dubai Marina area... more

Stayed here for four days. We stayed on the newly refurbished fourth floor overlooking the pool which was very nice indeed. Bathroom was fantastic with a seperate shower and bath. The minibar was very very well stocked but be advised it will cost you more than your average minibar. If you feel like ordering booze from room service think carefully it will cost you a LOT of money. TV shows quite a varied mix of channels and it was a definite bonus to be able to watch British news and see how the folks were freezing back home in the... more

My girlfriend & I stayed here for one week. We were given a freshly-renovated room with a view over the Gulf, and could not fault the room - large & comfortable. Breakfast served in the room was enough for 2 people. The gym is decent, and the outdoor pool is fairly large. Tennis courts have a ball machine which is inexpensive to rent. All the staff were friendly and helpful. Internet access is indeed expensive, but we were able to pick up a (weak) signal from an open access point, and surf for free using that. The... more

Admittedly the decor, service and all was very good, but it was very businessman aimed. There was nothing much to do and all the shops were aimed at men, hmm... Although I did think the ice-skating rink and Baskin&Robins was pretty cute :)

Cold, marble clad and one to be avoided. Reception staff pleasant...and that's about it! Definitely a business hotel, being near the gold souk doesn't make it 'central'. As for Al Dawaar, the revolving restaurant - save your money.
