The hotel

Arguably the globe’s coolest name in hotels, the W has finally hit Dubai’s coveted Palm Jumeirah neighbourhood. Seriously stylish, it brings the W’s famous VIP vibe with it, with audacious design and décor; Michelin-starred masterchefs at its signature dining venues; a spa that mixes chilled massages with playful party-prep treatments like coloured lashes; and chic hangout spaces like SoBe – a rooftop bar with 360 degree views over Dubai’s skyscrapers and the Arabian Sea. The fashionable feel continues down at W The Palm Dubai’s WET Deck, where you’ll find a pristine sandy shoreline, DJ booth, and space-age cabana pods sitting on pool-top platforms.

Firstly, I know hotels can’t help sometimes what goes on however it is down to them to rectify an issue when risen. I had previously posted last night (our last evening) a nice review with the pros and cons to this hotel however wow what a mistake. Last night for the third night in a row we were woken up yet again by noisy neighbours next door to us, the last two nights we have grin and heated as appreciate people are on holiday but their antics were going on to 6am!! Last night enough was enough as we have a long day traveling. After finally nodding off yet again our doorbell rang at 5.30 the guest mistaking us for ‘next door’. I rang down to reception twice about the noise might I point out at no point did they ask which room was making the noise an and assured that it would be addressed however it was not they were still on the balcony, playing music, noise was going up and down at various points when your thought it had stopped they started again. I am absolutely appalled to be honest by the hotel for not addressing this as it took us a lot to ask! Will certainly not be back if you think this type of behaviour at that time is acceptable. By the way are we are a 28/29 year old couple by no means a party pooper but we know when enough is enough and to respect other people in a HOTEL. Read less

We had a great time by the beach and pools, with warm clean water and great food service. The rooms were modern and with dark decor set against the bright sun outside. To top it off, Karthik was a great help on the day of our checkout when we lost some belongings (then found later!)

I stayed here for a week in May 22 and can honestly say this was the best hotel I have ever stayed in; the staff from the management to the cleaners were amazing and could not do enough to help you; all staff were just so friendly. The hotel was spotlessly clean and the cleaners were just amazing, they were so flexible and would just clean your room whenever you wanted. The room service was amazing; it was cheap enough and loads of choice. All rooms are stocked with a minibar too. The pool area is amazing and it is a nice vibe that caters for all ages and not just the young. The hotel has lots of entertainment and has its own beach which was amazing and so relaxing. Views from the rooms are just amazing; we had a room were you could see the beach and the full Dubai skyline and my god what a view it was. Our package come with free hotel breakfast and I loved it; they had everything from sausages to pancakes. Overall this is one of the best hotels in Dubai and I would highly recommend! Read less
