We returned from the hotel on February 1.2013. We flew with Ural Airlines from Samara. Convenient departure time, took off to the minute, on the A321 (on the plane, to put it mildly - crowded). The food was very modest. But the flight went fine, landed ahead of time. The airport is large, signs are everywhere, everything is clear. They immediately changed money at 3.61 (a little, in exchangers in malls the exchange rate is better than 3.68). To convert the price to dollars - divide the price in dirhams by 3.68, in rubles - multiply dirhams by 8.2). From the airport hall we went along the passage to the metro, bought cards for 20 dir (they are also suitable for buses). You apply the card when you pass to the platform and after the end of the trip. Two metro lines, to our hotel on the red one, without transfers, about an hour (30 km). Stop Jumeirah Lake Tower. Dealing with the subway is very simple, trains going to Rashidia are towards the airport, to Jebel Ali are from the airport towards Abu Dhabi. From the metro station to the hotel on foot for about 15 minutes, but for the first time it is better to take a taxi from the metro, 8 dir. Next to the metro there is a 24-hour supermarket, very tasty juices and a lot of fruits (melons, pineapples, pears, watermelons, mangoes, papaya, lychee, rhombutan, strawberries, plums, peaches, raspberries, cherries and I don’t know what yet! ). Hotel. Accommodation 5, Service 5, Meals 5-. Cons: 1 - construction site between the hotel and the beach. It didn’t bother me to sleep, but my husband couldn’t sleep with an open balcony, he said it was noisy). 2 - WiFi is paid. Settled in the hotel very quickly. Things were delivered to the room without us. At the reception there is a Russian-speaking manager Christina (blonde with glasses). For 8/7 we were charged 2000 dir (returned at checkout, minus our additional expenses). It is better to give in dirhams, if you pay in dollars, they will return everything in dirhams, you will lose a little on the difference in the rate of the hotel. In general, it is very convenient not to carry money with you at the hotel. We lived in the Standard with a side sea view. The room is good. First we were settled on the 7th floor, the next morning we asked for a higher room, after lunch we were moved to the 18th floor, a great view of Palma. There were no problems with the move, they politely explained that as soon as the room was free, they would inform us, and it was, they sent a boy, he moved our luggage. The room is as pictured on the hotel website. The room does not smell. The bed is huge, very comfortable, the bed linen is good, 8 new towels, gel, shampoo, conditioner, body lotion were updated every day. Plumbing is good, works flawlessly, hot water is always available. Room cleaning twice a day. Three times left on the dollar. Bathrobes, slippers. The box with tea-coffee-dance is very handy, replenished regularly, every day they brought 2 bottles of water, 0.5 liters each. Mini bar is expensive. Russian channel one TV-3. The staff is friendly, helpful. Swimming pool on the 3rd floor of the elevator, not big, sun loungers, umbrellas, you also get towels for the beach, 5 minutes to the beach. walk, not equipped, but clean. Nutrition. Restaurant Horizon on the 1st floor of the elevator. We had NV. The manager sits down, each time they offer different places. We were very pleased with the food. Fish, meat, chicken, soups, cheeses, herbs, vegetables, sauces, pastry desserts, fruit-berries (watermelons, pineapples, melons, papaya, oranges, grapefruits, lychees, dried fruits - prunes and dried apricots, canned strawberries and peaches). Salads were not taken, there were enough vegetables and herbs. At the distribution there is a Russian-speaking cook, she kindly suggested what to eat. Cons - no coffee, tea bags, for dinner the choice of fresh juices is limited - watermelon, orange, pineapple and grapefruit. If you leave the hotel and walk 3 minutes. towards the Sheraton, at the end of the boulevard there is a street cafe, there is a large selection of fresh juices, for example, mango - 18 dir 0.5l. On the 3rd floor of the elevator there is a separate sauna and steam room, a Jacuzzi according to the schedule (sometimes boys, sometimes girls). Towels and locker keys will be given to you. Massage was not taken, expensive. Marina Mall 20 min. walk from the hotel. Battuta Mall by metro one stop towards Jebel Ali, 2.30 dir. , we went back by bus number 8, the final one is near the metro, go 5-7 minutes. , stop at the Sheraton, very close to the hotel. In Abu Dhabi, you also get to Ibn Battuta, take a bus that goes to Abu Dhabi 25 dir and about 50 minutes. ride. To the Emirates Mall by metro in the direction of Rashidia after 5 stops, to the Dubai Mall in the same direction, but further, 25-30 minutes away. We checked out quickly, a taxi was always at the hotel, our luggage was loaded, you can take a taxi for 8 dir to get to the metro and then take it to the airport - an hour's drive, we took a taxi to the airport for 25 minutes 75 dir. The taxi driver will ask which terminal there are 3 of them, we were in a common international one, we called him the airline. The city is unusually beautiful, clean, delicious smelling, air-conditioned, Burj Khalifa (near Dubai Mall) makes an impression, especially in the dark, singing fountains (ibid. ) - this must be seen at least once in a lifetime. Sea, canals, friendliness, roads, shopping no comment! Well, construction is a new city, there is construction everywhere, hotels, roads, interchanges, subways, houses, shopping and entertainment centers are being built, but all this is done quietly, not dusty and not stressful for tourists. I think that at the end of construction, this hotel will cost much more, not Atlantis, of course, but for its price, it will not disappoint you, there are very few of our compatriots in it!
