Al Bandar Rotana impresses with its cleanliness and spacious rooms, with some even enjoying upgrades. The hotel's breakfast receives high praise, with a wide range of options. and the pool area provides ample sun loungers with views of Dubai's skyline; plus, the location is convenient to the gold market and old city. Guests on the all-inclusive package appreciate the variety of food, especially at the pool bar and Gusto Italian restaurant on the 18th floor, though some have noted limited food availability between certain afternoon hours. A shuttle service is available to Kite Beach.

The staff was helpful. I received an unexpected room upgrade. The hotel is very close to the airport (a short 12-minute ride). A Starbucks coffee shop is conveniently located inside the hotel.

Solid Stay, Great Amenities

king bedclear viewseparate sinksservice gap
I stayed in a City View Room King Bed for three nights. The room had a king bed and a clear view. It was super clean! The bathroom included two separate sinks.
The all-inclusive package had a gap in food service between 3:30 PM and 6:30 PM. It would be nice to have snacks available during that time. It was inconvenient. I had to pay extra if I wanted something to eat.
