I recently had the pleasure of staying at the Holiday Inn in Dubai, and I must say it exceeded my expectations in every way. This hotel is brand new, and you can really tell: the facilities are immaculate and incredibly well-maintained. The staff at the hotel were friendly and accommodating, always ready to help with a smile. They made my stay feel even more pleasant and welcoming. One of the highlights of my visit was the dining experience. The breakfast and dinner options were not only delicious but also offered a great variety of cuisines. Every meal was a treat, and I looked forward to dining there each day. Overall, I highly recommend the Holiday Inn in Dubai for anyone looking for a clean, comfortable, and enjoyable stay with excellent service and dining options. I will definitely be returning on my next trip!

What can we say about Staybridge Al-Maktoum? It truly feels like our home away from home! From the moment we arrived, we were welcomed with warmth and professionalism that set the tone for an incredible stay. A special shoutout to Kate at the front desk, whose kindness and attention to detail made every interaction a pleasure. She went above and beyond to ensure we were comfortable and had everything we needed. The highlight of our stay was the head chef, whose dedication and passion for creating an amazing experience for every guest is unparalleled. Not only was the food absolutely delicious, but the effort put into ensuring everyone felt special and taken care of was remarkable. The chef's personal touch made each meal a memorable part of our trip. The facilities, the ambiance, and the overall service were all top-notch. Whether you're staying for a short visit or an extended period, Staybridge Al-Maktoum is a place where you'll feel valued, relaxed, and at home. Thank you to the entire team for making our stay truly amazing. We can’t wait to return!

Everything and the staff are amazing!! The head chef is fantastic

We were going to fly early next morning and this hotel was near the airport and has a free shuttle to the airport, perfect for us. The staff at the hotel were supernice! Two good restaurants, swimmingpool and gym. Modern, stylish and very clean rooms with good beds. Will absolutely stay here again either coming in or out from the airport. It is 40 minutes to drive to the centre of Dubai. Be aware that there are two airports in Dubai, the other one closer to the city.

Everything was nice!

The hotel looks amazing and nice. The room and furniture was new especially the bathroom. I like it but the rooms are small for a family.

The hotel has two parts one part was renevated and other part was old design and old furniture. The location wasn't close to Dubai and from the window it looks like you are in middle of construction and desert. Not nice view but there are some rooms has a swimming pool view.

Overall, good experience. Smooth checkin process. Basement parking. Clean room and comfortable beds. Dinner and breakfast buffets were having good options and had ample space to accommodate all. Clean swimming.pool. Friendly staff. For any urgent grocery/other needs, there is a supermarket in walking distance.

Except for swimming pool, no other kids activities like kids play area etc. Not even a walk path/outside greenery area to spend some time.

It’s close to the airport. You can book a free shuttle to the airport which is very convenient. Big room with a big bathroom and bedroom. Everything was clean. The staff was friendly and polite.

I didn’t have the adapter and the reception didn’t have it as well. I believe that such hotels as Holiday In should have these small but very important things for their guests.

Holiday Inn Al Maktoom Airport offers a convenient stay for travelers looking to be near the airport, though it's a bit distant from city attractions.

The rooms were clean and comfortable, and the food served was of good quality. It's an ideal spot for a peaceful staycation, featuring a nice pool area and well-equipped facilities including a gym, steam room, and sauna. If you prioritize proximity to the airport and enjoy a quieter atmosphere, this hotel is a solid choice.
