We stopped off for 3 nights at Rimal Rotana on the way to Sri Lanka which we booked through Virgin. Transfers from the airport were first class in a private car, took about 15 mins as the hotel is near the airport in Deira. This is a 3* hotel but in my opinion is more a 4. The hotel is... more

We stayed in Dubai for a couple of nights on our way to Mauritius and booked through Thomson. For the price we thought the Rimal was really good, other reviews on trip advisor had mentioned problems so I was a little hesitant but am pleased to say we didn't experience any.

With 7-star this and 5-star that hotels plastered all over Dubai, it was refreshing to find a small, modern hotel that wasn't intimidated by its swankier competitors. The standard of rooms was very high, housekeeping was very regular, the overall service standards professional and there's plenty of choice at breakfast. The hotel pool/sun deck is just big enough for the... more

We stayed at the Rimal Rotana Suites in Deira for three nights. We arrived at about 3 30 am and realised we should have booked for that night, as well as the three we had booked, but the staff at reception were very helpful, and they gave us a two bedroom suite so that we could get some sleep. We... more
