Great Hotel!!
I had a great stay at this hotel. Exceptional service and staff. Seemed as if I was staying at a 5 star hotel. They might want to add a few more variety on their Room Service menu though. Breakfast was also very good. The best facility however was Free Internet in the entire hotel. Highly recommended!

Perfect stay
very clean and modern hotel; just opened in October 2009, very friendly staff, clean clean clean rooms (as the most important thing is cleanness for me). 32" LCD, variety of channels and my favourite VH1, pretty good minibar with almost everything that you want (fizzy drink, munchies, etc.). the A/C is more than fine. the carpet and any other amenities are fine; what else do you want from a hotel?! there are always available cabs.

Nice and New - BUT TRYING TOO HARD TO BE COOL!
So the Hotel is still new, but after 3/4 months they should have learned from at least some of their mistakes, feels at times like I was staying in a nightclub, bar in lobby completely destroys the relaxing in the lobby time we sometimes need. The hotel room was small, dirty sheets, bathroom was dirty, feel like the staff were not there to clean just to make the beds. Then there is the club night a the pool, some times at night on business trip you just want to take a swim and relax, but not when there is a party going on around... more

Dear RegularBusiness, Thank you for sharing your experience from your recent stay with us at Media One Hotel on Tripadvisor. It was with concern to read about your feedback regarding the cleanliness of the room as well as about the volume levels throughout the Hotel that you considered to be too high. Whilst our Rooms and Suites are varying in sizes and design, your comments about the Housekeeping Service have been shared with our Executive Housekeeper who will investigate to eliminate a recurrence in the future. Regarding the music you find throughout the Hotel we have recently reviewed the levels of volume in all areas of the Hotel as it is our aim to cater in style and service for all our guests needs, whether they travel for business purposes or just to relax. I certainly regret that your recent experience with us has left you feeling that you would not wish to return to Media One Hotel, but I do hope that you will allow us the opportunity to restore your confidence in our standards and concept in the future. Once again, thank you for taking the time to post your review on TripAdvisor. We look forward to welcoming you again at Media One Hotel. Sincerely, Steven Mueller Director of Front Office

what a terrible terrible hotel ! spend your money somewhere else !!
One of the worst i've ever stayed in, check-in needed more than 15 minutes, check-out needed around 10 minutes, when i arrived they did not have keys for the rooms so I had to use the master-key and stay without a key for my room !!!! totally unprofessional service ... the hotel's club is right next to the lobby and reception which is totally stupid as you cannot hear the receptionist when talking to them !! It was such a terrible experience and the list can go on and on, I had to make an official complaint to the manager-on-duty !

Dear Mar_Sam_Jo, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback from your recent visit to Media One Hotel. I was of course most alarmed to learn that your experience did not meet the high standards we strive to achieve. Please accept my sincere apologies for the shortfalls you encountered. I appreciate you bringing these issues to my attention and the opportunity to address your feedback. With regards to the prolonged check-in experience as well as the issues relating to your room key which was not available upon your arrival, may I please request you to regard your experience as an isolated incident. Whilst we were facing challenges with our key system for a few days after the opening of our Hotel, I can assure you these have been overcome and we have taken measures that an such incident will not recur to any of our guests in the future. Concerning the noise level in the Lobby that affected your conversation with our Front Desk Agent as a result from our Resident DJ’s music in our Z:One Bar; many of our guests consider the set up of our Lobby with a Bar next to our Front Desk as an advantage, however we have reassessed the volume levels and come up with ways of minimizing any disturbance to guests not joining the party in our popular Bar. I would like to once again apologize for this shortfall in our service and reassure you that your comments have been discussed among the team. Whilst I certainly regret that your recent experience at Media One Hotel has left you feeling disappointed, I do hope that you will allow us the opportunity to restore your confidence in our service standards. We all are looking forward to the possibility of welcoming you back to our Hotel and I am certain we will be able to redeem ourselves on the next occasion. Once again, thank you for taking the time to share your feedback on TripAdvisor. Sincerely, Steven Mueller Director of Front Office

Waste of money
Stayed in this supposedly new hotel. The front office staff were busy chatting and looking good rather than pay attention to guests. The hotel was empty and the lobby resembled an empty museum. The rooms were average size but the bed had stain marks. The bathroom toiletries were more like holiday inn express than a 4 * hotel. The hotel is on the main road next to the motorway. Couldnt sleep one wink. Felt like sleeping on the road. Never again to this waste of money hotel.
Mixed Feelings..
I like to try new hotels when I visit Dubai as I haven't found my 'number 1' here yet. There are some good offers on in Dubai at moment and as such, thought I would make most of offer at this new hotel. Yes; it has a modern, somewhat funky feel about it but my honest opinion is that they could have put more effort in with this design and pay more attention to detail (I can't help feel the designer got lazy or lost his passion during the project for this hotel). The same with the finishings. The rooms are tiny and my view meant I pretty much... more
New concept hotel with good value for the money & very friendly staff
the hotel has a nice stunning conceptual interior design. The hotel staff is so courteous, friendly, helpful and attentive. The Breakfast is great serving variety of good foods and the hotel has a terrace that overlooks the Jumirah coastline the Jumirah palm & Atlantis. they have a lovely glassy bath room with nice large bath tube. they offered us a free lunch on our depature to celebrate our own event. the hotel provide free internet via Wi FI or cables. the swimming pool is shallow. The room is so compact relative to Dubai's spacious... more
holiday
this hotel is a new hotel, it's a very nice and new stylish, the location is near the JBR (jumira beach residence) and the walk also near the media city and the American uni in Dubai, the whole are is called Dubai Marina, for the people who has a car it's will be so easy to go anywhere in Dubai, for the taxi i prefer that you take a taxi from the street it's cheaper than the hotel taxi, or you can call a taxi from a local taxi company. we stayed there in Eid Holiday for one night, really it's a nice hotel the staff are good but... more
Excellent Hotel - Nice Soft Launch Bargain
We stayed at this Media One Hotel for only one night before heading to Atlantis the Palm for the next night. We arrived at the hotel at 6am in the morning and were greeted by very friendly staff at the reception. They arranged a room for us w/o additional charge. The room was relatively small, but very cozy and clean! It has an open bathroom with a beautiful bath tube. Only 10 minutes by cab to the Mall of Emirates (supposed to be the nearest Metro station)! One thing I have to highlight was that, the hotel sent us a surprise birthday cake... more
Serious bargain during soft launch
I stayed at the brand new Media One for 3 nights in November. The staff were very friendly and eager to please although still getting to grips with this brand new hotel. At the time of my visit only the Med Restaurant (8th floor) and lobby coffee shop were open so food choices were a little restricted but certainly not a problem for 3 nights. I believe the bar was opening on the day I departed (great timing!). The lobby is very open, light and airy with a few shops and lots of staff on hand to meet and greet. My room on the 19th floor... more
