Moevenpick Hotel Bur

Where can I begin.... I stayed here along with a cousin for 5 nights. We requseted an early check in as we had booked an overnight flight and on our arrival we were welcomed by staff and given our room without any hesitation. Staff were very friendly and polite and every member of staff would greet us each morning. We were unsure of what places to visit in Dubai so approached the concierge staff who were very efficient and prompt and even made reservations for us to visit clubs on nights out. Buffet breakfast and other hotel... more

Very luxurious hotel deserving of 5 stars, staff courteous nothing is too much trouble. World class breakfast all you can eat, highly recommend the Italian restaurant also catch the Big Bus tour from Wafi City. Hotel really classy, every night chocolate and an orchid on my pillow. Jimmy Dix's great for live band and we paid no cover charge. Taxis really inexpensive, Irish Village and Century Village not far from this hotel make sure to visit. Will definitely return

We stayed at Movenpick Dubai last October and found it to be great value. The service we received from all of the staff was second to none. Shashi (the concierge) went out of his way to ensure that we had a great holiday by booking the restaurants and activities we wanted. Everybody was friendly to us, from the manager to the cleaners, who ensured the hotel was always in pristine condition. The hotel is not in the best area but with taxis so inexpensive this was not a problem. We visited many other hotels in Dubai but none compared to... more

I stayed with my hubby and 2 kids in the Moevenpick Bur Dubai in a "family room", which catered fabulously for the 4 of us. The food was good, particularly in the Italian restaurant. The buffet breakfast rich and good value. They offered daily free shuttles to the beach (very nice one in a park, not too far from hotel) and to the major shopping malls. All in all we spent a memorable five nights in that family friendly hotel. Can highly recommend it to anyone who is not after a beach holiday.

Movenpick Bur Dubai is an average hotel in the prime location. Close to most shopping centres ( Lamcy Plaza is really in walking distance), the hotel is well situated. We had booked 3 rooms, all with interconnecting doors. We got two, and the third was not connected. To add to this the third room had twin beds, while we had requested a double bed. We took the matter to the front desk who then promptly upgraded the third room to the 4th floor (executive floor). Menawhile, all the baggage was sent down to the otehr tow rooms, and it took... more

The Movenpick is not on the beach, but is in a great location to access all parts of the city - business, shopping malls, beaches etc. Staff are friendly and helpful - and they have special rooms for families! Accommodation is not cheap in Dubai, but this hotel is great value. And you have to try the Friday Brunch - they have a craft market, stalls with superb food and dessert to die for. Plus a kids room with bouncy castle, colouring, kids food, and supervision so mums and dads eat in peace ( a glass of bubbly is included in the great... more

PLEASE IGNORE the negative reviews about this hotel!!! Both my girlfriend and I had the pleasure of staying in the Movenpick Bur Dubai for two weeks and enjoyed every minute there. The staff, from the front desk to the room attendants could not have been more friendly in their approach to make our stay as enjoyable as possible. The actual hotel itself is stunning and there were always taxis on hand to ferry us around at a very affordable price. All in all - we strongly recommend the Movenpick Hotel Bur Dubai and look... more

Me and my wife visited Dubai during the peak season between 24th April to 31st March 2005. Due to the Dubai Gold cup and Easter holidays all hotels were fully booked. We were able to get an executive floor room at Movenpick Hotel.Being our first time in Dubai we needed all the help we could get to enjoy our stay. One of the concierge SHAHSI was excellent, he has a wonderful knowledge of Dubai, and he adds a lot of personal touch and efficiency to his work,He was able to get us to dine in all the top restaurants in Dubai, Pepper Crab at Grand... more

I stayed there once, and never again! Looks very nice but service is terrible. For example, when you check out they ask "did you use the minibar?" and when you say "no", they keep stalling until they send someone to actually check whether you are lying!! This could take up to 10 minutes!!!! When I insisted to talk to the manager about this, he came out, gave me an insincere smile and simply said "we will certainly take your comments into consideration". Yeah right. Your loss, sir!

I thought this was a terrible hotel. It has five stars outside the hotel - but I would certainly not rate it as that! Granted the reception area is beautiful. We however found staff quite rude. There is no type of mini-bus to take you into town. There is a near by mall. However, the ladies changing rooms were a mess! Having previously stayed at Le Royal Meridian in Dubai - this could not even be compared! I would NOT stay here again!
