We booked the apartment. these are big apartments (we had a 3 room apartment, with 2 baths). overall not the newest/most modern rooms, but overall maintenance is good (everything worked). breakfast is good. nice selection, friendly staff and you have the option to choose inside and outside. swimming pool is nice/not huge, but great for kids. Final: location. this is great. you can walk to the mall of Dubai (and the Burj Khalifa), many shops and restaurant options.

to keep in mind when booking a appartment: these are not directly connectded to the hotel, which means that if you booked a breakfast, lunch or diner, you need to exit the appartment building and walk over to the hotel. not a big issue for us, but you should be aware. Noise: The appartment we had was facing the mall/Burj Khalifa side. there is a highway in front of the building and makes lots of noise (We discussed options with the reception, they offered a change to the hotel. I decided to buy earplugs, as the apprartment was more convenient for us). On pictures you see lots of water/swimming pools, but keep in mind that the hotel has only one of the pools that you can use.

This was our first visit of Dubai travelling with a young child and we were debating on location and type of property. This ended up being an excellent choice for the following reasons: - Location is great. short walk to Dubai Mall where you will find plenty of cafes and restaurants also, can view the Fountain show, head to Burj Khalifa and then walk to Wings of Mexico - Taxis are cheap in Dubai and other prime locations like the Palm are still easily accessible with a 30 minute ride - We particularly liked the offer of the Swissotel apartments which gave us plenty of space as a family. Originally I was worried that the apartments might be far away or too seperate from the main hotel and the amenities but it wasn't, it's all within one secure campus/complex - Every single staff member we interacted with was exceptionally friendly and helpful - We loved the different pool options - one is a big bigger and great for sun bathing and relaxing. Another pool closer to the main hotel has a pool bar and offers food and cocktails. You can enjoy a view of the Burj Khalifa from the pool - There is a pub attached to the hotel which was buzzing at night and had great food

- Other reviewers said to make sure to take breakfast as included as food is so expensive in Dubai. Whilst the buffet was very good with lots of choices, I wouldn't take breakfast again and rather explore the many options in the area. Breakfast also finishes at 10:30, and some days we would have preferred to sleep in ;-) - The rooms (esp bathrooms) and decor are quite dated. I knew this and it didn't bother us but if you are looking for something ultra modern then this is not it - Not a biggie but the coffee wasn't great - head to Dubai Mall for a proper Cappuccino

Was upgraded to a suite on arrival, which was nice. Clean, tidy and plenty of sockets (USB C!). All staff very friendly and professional without exception. I opted for breakfast and dinner included, which I highly recommend. Great options for both, with chefs making fresh produce throughout the service. Location very convenient for the mall and other tourist spots. A diverse cliental with multi nationality, couples/family's and business/pleasure, which gave a very inclusive feel. Always enjoy Swissotel's, and wont hesitate in returning to this one!

A traveller FYI and tip. If you travel by public transport, as I did. Rather than walk from the mall metro, through the mall, then crossing the road (which can be extremely confusing for first time visitors to Dubai, walk from emirates towers metro station. This is a similar route, and you can walk through DIFC if you need an AC break, taking the same amount of time.

Swissotel Al Muooraj is a nice hotel, ideal for those wanting to stay in downtown Dubai, within walking distance of the Burj Khalifa and Dubai Mall. The restaurant staff is extremely friendly, and the swimming pool is a great addition. However, if you’re booking a Classic King Room, note that most views are road-facing. For those who enjoy exploring via public transport, the Burj Khalifa Metro Station is about a 7–8 minute walk away. While there are many hotels in the vicinity, I had a very positive experience negotiating with Dusit Thani—they were accommodating and left a great impression. Although we ultimately chose Swissotel, Dusit Thani would have been a strong alternative.

It was in a brilliant location - within a stones throw of Dubai Mall and the Burj Khalifa. There’s a coffee shop, barber, supermarket and pharmacy all part of the building itself. Our room (a 2 bed apartment) was massive. 2 bedrooms, a living room, kitchen, 3 toilets, drying room and balcony. Everything you could think of was there (iron, ironing board, washing machine, dryer). It made our stay super comfortable and ‘home from home’. I have to give a specific mention to the lifeguards and pool staff, who tirelessly go to great lengths to keep you happy and safe. Particularly Yasser, Baldev, Kishor and Dicent - the dream team. They entertained our kids and kept them safe while we watched from the shallow pool. I’d highly recommend this as a place to stay.

Parts of it were a bit dated, but it didn’t affect the quality of our stay.

My stay at Swissôtel Al Murooj Dubai was absolutely fantastic! From the moment I arrived, the hospitality and professionalism of the staff stood out. The check-in process was smooth, and the team ensured that all my needs were met with a smile. The room was spacious, clean, and well-maintained, offering a perfect blend of comfort and luxury. The housekeeping staff did an excellent job every day, keeping everything spotless. The hotel’s location is perfect—conveniently close to major attractions and shopping areas. The breakfast selection was incredible, with a wide variety of delicious options to suit all tastes. The facilities, including the pool and gym, were top-notch and made my stay even more enjoyable. Overall, I had a truly wonderful experience and would highly recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Dubai. Looking forward to coming back soon!

Location and the customer service especially by Sunday was exceptional.

Apartment was a little outdated but was comfy and great for the price. Beds were really comfy and the A/C was great, really good to come back into a nice cool room. Blackout curtains were good and the apartment was very roomy. Breakfast was great with a huge variety. Awesome location with Dubai Mall 5 mins away, great to have everything there and Burj Khalifa next to it as well. Our party arrived early and we were able to get an early check in which was amazing as we had travelled all night, didn't have to wait too long, and as we were leaving early on our last morning, breakfast was offered to us on arrival instead, which was great and killed some time until our room was ready.

A coffee from the downstairs cafe cost a fortune, something like $15 AUD which i would not have ordered if I had known how expensive it was. In saying that, it was huge and a nice coffee, just in a takeaway cup. Arriving in a taxi we were dropped at the main hotel, but we were actually staying in one of the other buildings adjoining and part of the hotel, which nobody explained to us prior to arriving, in saying that it was no bother, the taxi just drove us around to where we needed to be when it was realized we were at the wrong place. Big complex

Large apartment cheaper than a single room..

Turned off the AC , but cold air keep coming via the kitchen vent. The whole place was quite cold. Nothing could apparently be done. Rooms next to the highway, but thankfully on of the rooms was less noisy.

Comfortable clean rooms, decent pool, although would be nice to include usage for the other pool shown in photos (for the apartments). Hotel is well located for the Dubai Mall but a shuttle would be helpful in the heat of the day (apparently, they run one in the summer only), there is an odd layout to the hotel, you go to the basement, through the gym and up 3 flights of stairs to get to the pool, or have to walk through the restaurant otherwise. We had a pleasant stay at the hotel bit probably wouldn't go back.

The breakfast buffet was lackluster, not the worst but could be a lot better. The hotel would benefit from better catering for allergies/dietary requirements with improved labelling on food etc On the whole the staff were good (in particular the reception team were excellent) however some of the restaurant and bar staff seemed slightly disinterested or incompetent. .
