We were checked in quickly and shown to our spacious room even though we arrived at 9 am. We greatly appreciated this service as we needed to sleep after being on a whole day's flight just getting to Dubai. We were impressed with this hotel from the minute we entered its front door. Gleaming marble floors, huge globular Egyptian columns... More

We recently spent 3 nights at Raffles,Dubai in a club room. All the rooms at the hotel are large with a balcony with sun lounger ,table and chairs. I would recommend a club room as you have afternoon tea,canapés and drinks before dinner included and its open until 11pm. Our immediate arrival at the hotel was met with extremely happy... More

Loved this hotel. The rooms are wonderful, real luxury, excellent facilities and every member of staff I can across were so helpful and friendly. A really personal service. I couldn't think of anything to make the hotel better - apart from perhaps slightly nicer toiletries in the bathroom - (they were fine though). Food and rinks were also excellent. Highly... More

It was my first stay at a Raffles Hotel. The room was comfortable, well-thought-out equipped and clean. I was deeply impressed about the friendly, motivated and professional staff. I feeled welcome, like coming home. Unfortunately I didn't had the possibility to join all amenities the Raffles Dubai provides, since we were there for only one night. I hope to come... More
