The typical place to stay in Dubai is obviously the Burj, however having stayed there, I would strongly advise you to stay in Al Qasr. I first stayed there in the summer of 2007 and was not expecting it to be as majestic as it was. Since I was going with my best friend and we are both students living... more

We arrived at Dubai airport and had our luggage whisked away from us - that was the last time we lifted our suitcases for our entire stay! We were taken in our private car to the door of the Hotel! We were at the Al Qsar for our Honeymoon and we couldn't have asked for anything better. The hotel looks... more

We spent a couple of nights at this hotel after 6 nights at the Ritz Carlton. In terms of service and ambiance,the Ritz Carlton is like an overpriced Motel 6 compared to this place.We should have stayed here in first place. No matter how big,disneyzed-vegasized-sanityzed the place is,this hotel offers an impeccable service. Of course,for 600 Euro per night it... more

While I agree with other reviews that this is a great family experience, I couldnt help but notice there is no mention of the outdated in-room technologies such as ancient tube TV, no on-demand movies, lackluster lighting controls. Perhaps Jumeirah should take a lesson in technical innovation from the Peninsula group. It seems that much of the budget was spent... more

I'd heard great things about Dubai, and now I've been I can understand why. I stayed 9 nights at Al Qasr with my wife and 2yr old son, staying in a Junior Arabian Suite. As other reviewers have mentioned, the welcome, the check-in process and the room itself were faultless. We arrived at the hotel at 8.30am but they had... more

This is the most amazing hotel. I booked an Arabian Ocean Villa (single). The room was amazing !! The checkin was completed in my room, so efficeient, and they really looked after me knowing that I was a single lady. There is a souk attached to the Madinat with over 70 shops and restaurants - and air conditioned. The service... more

It's taken me awhile to actually write this review due to time constraints but I feel I owe this to anyone who is looking for a luxurious vacation in Dubai. I am quite a traveller and have been to every continent and stayed in many different types of hotels. I have high expectations when I am paying more. This hotel... more

I stayed 5 nights at Al Qasr recently, I was there for business - but it felt like play. All the other reviews are spot on, I just wanted to add some color. This doesn't feel like a property in a middle eastern country - its packed with westerners wearing skimpy resort attire, speaking in their native tongues and SMOKING... more

A remarkable hotel with a true arabic feel... Again as per my reveiw for the Mina As Alam the service that is received is second to none. A palatial,wonderfull holiday destination. more
