Al Maqtaa Fort Tours and Activities

Big spacious rooms in the middle of the city

Very nice room and a very comfy bed. Good shower too and bath tub. Pool area was very nice and the hotel was very clean. Breakfast was above average but not the greatest breakfast I've had in a hotel out here. It was relatively quiet, which was good. Stunning view from the window in the room. Hotel is near the end of the Corniche opposite Emirates Palace and a few other fancy hotels. Marina Mall is pretty close, as is the Khalidiya area for restaurants, shops etc. I'm recommend it, no problem.

We had a wonderful stay at Emirates Palace in a beautiful sea-view room with Club Lounge access. The property is truly grand and spectacular, with so much to do without ever needing to leave — from camel rides to a variety of activities throughout the resort. The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming, but the Club Lounge team was truly exceptional. Everyone was so accommodating and went above and beyond to make our stay special, including helping us arrange dinner reservations and organizing thoughtful anniversary treats in our room. A special thank you to Rohit, who was phenomenal with our 1.5-year-old son. He went out of his way to prepare special purées for him and would always ask if there was anything he could make for him. That personal attention meant so much to us and was one of the highlights of our stay. The breakfast was truly incredible — one of the best hotel breakfasts we have experienced, with an amazing selection. The Kids' Palace was a little underwhelming compared with the rest of the property, and the enormous size of the palace can sometimes take away from the personal feel of the experience. Overall, Emirates Palace is an incredible and unforgettable property. The grandeur, setting, activities, amazing breakfast, and especially the exceptional Club Lounge staff made our stay very special.
