Radisson Blu Hotel Dubai Media City

I stayed here for several days and for each day there was at least one problem. The hotel is noisy - not just from the ubiquitous Dubai construction, but the street noise and the hallway and guest noise is atrocious. The walls must be paper thin. I could hear the person above me in the bathroom - not pleasant at all - and the rooms on either side were terrible with TV and conversation noise. Plus, the hotel has several terraces with furniture out on them and any time of day - especially between 2am and 6am, you can hear the furniture being... more

Beautiful hotel complete with all comfort expected from such hotels. Very nice rooms and surrounding. Had a big problem with never ending noise coming from building site right next to hotel..and on a business trip this could be a problem: my room was facing this site - asked reception to change room, which they did after sort of blaming me ! Second room slightly better but still noisy. Would go there again only if i get prior assurance of silence in room !!

Wasn't expecting a lot...but pleasantly surprised by appointments and quality. Room was very comfortable with well designed bathroom. Hotel food was fine/room service was convenient. Bar gets crowded. Pool is nice, but on the small side with a view of a business park. Overall, would recommmend for convenience if working in media city.

The only thing good about this hotel is its proximity to Dubai Internet City and Dubai Media City. The hotel is built as two towers, only one of which has a reception. If you are unlucky enough to be stationed in the other tower and the bridge between towers is closed (as was my case), you will be towing your luggage outdoors between the towers. The hotel restaurants are quite busy during lunch hours but deserted during the evenings. On top of that, during my one week stay at the hotel there were 2 fire alarms (one at 4 am) that... more

I stayed there for 6 nights during a business trip and didn´t find a big problem. The staff was very helpful and was very dedicated. However, my colleagues also complained about thin walls and noise on the 7th floor (notice: on 8th floors there is a Rooftop bar with live music) as well as on the 2nd/3rd floor facing the pool area, because of occational pool parties at night. I didn´t have a problem at all. There is an excellant but expensive breakfast buffet in the restaurant and a cheaper version of ot it: continental breakfast served in... more

We have been to Dubai before, and thought this would be a cool place to stay, out of the city but not too far. However there are, as a previous reviewer stated, a number of issues with this hotel. No 1- The pool gets no sunlight whatsoever. Do not stay here if you want to get a tan. No 2- The walls are too thin, we had to change our room due to the "love noises" coming from our neighbours. The receptionist intimated to us that this has been a problem for them. No 3- Slightly awkward staff who are keen to please but have... more

Have stayed in many Radisson hotels and they are generally ok BUT this one has soooooo many problems that it's NOT a recommended stay. Some of these include; a shower that runs from TOO COLD to TOO HOT and doesnt drain properly, a problem with music from the bar DISRUPTING SLEEP at 11pm plus a pool which is directly overlooked next door by office workers & labourers all day long. Needless to say my wife wasnt very comfortable lounging there. With the higher buildings right beside, theres only 2hrs of direct sunshine on the pool anyway. Made... more

We stayed there 3 nights and enjoyed it very much. The breakfast buffet is very good. The high speed wireless internet connection, flat panel TV, DVD are nice. It is very close to the Mall of the Emirates (indoor skiing, good shopping), the Palm, Burj Al Arab and the Dubai Marina. In the evening go down to the marina to enjoy a nice walk, outdoor cafes, restaurants, etc. - a two minute cab ride. There is lots of construction going on in this part of Dubai, but since you will take cabs or drive anyway, it is not a problem. The park next to... more

Very very trendy, very stylish, an excellent place to sit, its not like one of those huge hotels, you dont feel as if its a big hotel when you are staying there, just seems like a hotel with 30 or 40 rooms or so. the ambience is excellent, would definitly recommend it to anyone, speically business travellers

We have recently stayed at the Radisson in Media City and give it 5 stars. We were there for pleasure and not business. Beautiful open air lounge on roof, euro spa and rooms as well as excellent on site restaurants. The staff was most accomodationg in setting up excursions, making recommendations of wonderful restaurants around the city, etc. Could not have been more conveniently located to AUD, Marina Walk, businesses, beach and malls.
