The Shangri-La Dubai is favored for its elegant atmosphere and convenient location near the subway station, with spectacular views, especially of the Burj Khalifa skyline at night. Many guests enjoyed the Horizon Club Premier rooms, finding them spacious and well-equipped, with access to the Horizon Lounge providing good value. The rooftop pool is often mentioned as a highlight. However, a few guests have found the standard rooms a bit small for families.

Valet parking seemed optional, despite its supposed purpose. I had to practically beg someone to take my car. also, the hotel is showing its age a bit. the furniture looked like it had seen better days, a real pity.

The hotel definitely shows its age. I booked a room and noted the decor felt dated. A lack of attention to detail was apparent and some fixtures looked worn. I was also not happy with the attentiveness of some staff members in certain areas. Responses to requests were slow.

The staff was lovely and so helpful. i especially remember khodarahm, the doorman. He was so kind. the hotel felt warm and elegant, a romantic atmosphere. our room had the most beautiful views of the burj khalifa skyline, a view especially magical at night.

when i arrived at the pool, i was guided to a lounge chair, and i left my things there. after a bit, i saw someone moved my things to another chair without asking first. when i asked security about it, the bar manager seemed upset because i wanted to know what happened.

the location offered convenient access. the staff was polite and generally helpful. the free valet parking was efficient... these services certainly added value to my experience.

my room was somewhat outdated. the carpet seemed worn, and the furniture showed signs of use. the pool area was a bit crowded during peak hours. finding a vacant lounge chair sometimes became difficult.
