Itwould be nice to have detox water at the reception, as in Rove and Ibis three-star hôtels, as well as tissues, because it is blister ing hot and humidity outside. ##### Martin Stayed 1 night in May 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Muhammad Nov 28, 2024 Reasonable for a one night stay. Staff was helpful. Rooms are somewhat small, and smell a bit. We arrived late after midnight and the Room wasn't ready. We had to wait for a while until the room is ready. I didn't like the idea of that extensive ID verification for every one staying, but it seems a common thing among hotels in the region. ##### Muhammad Stayed 1 night in Nov 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Hanadi Dec 18, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness Excellent ##### Hanadi Stayed 5 nights in Dec 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### BYRON Jul 7, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness Good property. ##### BYRON Stayed 6 nights in Jun 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kristian Jun 14, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities Great ##### Kristian Stayed 8 nights in Jun 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Sabah Dec 27, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Clean rooms and amazing location as it is right behind emirates mall!

They gave me a different room and promised to switch me later. Upon entering the room it looked very little like the images. The furniture was worn, faded and in rough shape. When I tried to take a shower the water scalded me and I burnt my arm. It would not cool. Additionally the shower quickly flooded. When I complained they found another room for me. I was told that the weather caused the hot water. At 4 am it was hot enough to burn. Upon going to the new room I was able to get cool water but the shower head was broken and would raise above my chest. And again it flooded, to which maintenance said they all flood. I got about 30 minutes of sleep on the rock hard bed before I packed up and checked out. Moving to a different hotel. ##### Anthony Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### lucio Jan 28, 2026 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities La zona dove si trova l'hotel la conoscevamo, posizionata vicinissima al Mall of the Emirates e quindi alla fermata della metro, fondamentale per gli spostamenti se si opta prevalentemente per questo mezzo. L'hotel offre delle camere spartane e un po' datate, ma bisogna considerare anche il prezzo vantaggioso nel nostro caso rispetto alla media. La pulizia in generale è risultata ottima. La colazione a buffet l'ho trovata eccellente, non ci ha delusi. Al nostro arrivo la camera assegnataci, però, è risultata, (sarà stato un caso), parecchio rumorosa probabilmente per assembramenti in strada di riders, locale con musica etc. Ma qui ci è venuta in aiuto la reception tramite la gentile Leonora che ha provveduto ad un cambio stanza immediato e da li è andato tutto bene. Approfitto per ringraziarla dell'assistenza che ha saputo darci e dei suoi modi professionalmente garbati. Consiglio questa struttura? Si, se cercate essenzialmente una struttura di compromesso tra la praticità ed economicità. ##### lucio Stayed 4 nights in Jan 2026 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Francisco Apr 27, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Excelente experiencia Mi reciente estadía en el Hotel Citymax Al Barsha fue una experiencia verdaderamente grata. Desde nuestra llegada, fuimos recibidos con una atención cálida, profesional y llena de hospitalidad. Un agradecimiento muy especial para Leonora, Stella y Fatiha, tres joyas en la recepción que nos trataron como auténticos reyes, siempre con una sonrisa y una disposición admirable. Y, por supuesto, gracias al manager Ahmed Farik, por liderar un equipo que realmente se esfuerza por brindar un servicio de clase mundial. El lobby del hotel tenía un aroma encantador que invitaba a quedarse, a relajarse, a disfrutar. El ambiente era acogedor y moderno, ideal tanto para viajeros de negocios como de placer. El desayuno fue excelente, y todo el personal del restaurante nos atendió con una amabilidad espectacular, atentos a cada detalle. La única observación que tengo es respecto a las camas en las habitaciones dobles, que me parecieron un poco pequeñas, como si estuvieran pensadas más para niños que para adultos. Fuera de eso, todo lo demás fue impecable. La ubicación del hotel es lo mejor que tuvimos, llena de restaurantes, tiendas de compras y una cercanía de dos Mall de los más conocidos de Dubai Emirates y Dubai Mall Gracias por hacer de nuestra visita a Dubái una experiencia aún más especial. ¡Espero volver pronto y recomendaré el hotel con entusiasmo a todos los que viajen a esta hermosa ciudad! — Francisco Montás Echolatino Viajes ##### Francisco Stayed 2 nights in Apr 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### SHUNSUKE Feb 10, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### ジャワールームの排水 他の方もご指摘の通り、シャワーの排水が悪く、弱い水圧にもかかわらず、トイレ、洗面エリアまで水浸しになります。 なぜここまで排水が悪いのかと気になり、排水溝を見たところ、謎の蓋が。 蓋を外すと気持ちよく流れました。 また4階のお部屋でしたが、夜中もクラクションが鳴り、騒音が気になりました。 ##### SHUNSUKE Stayed 2 nights in Feb 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### George Jun 14, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities I had a good stay, the hotel is clean and the location is fantastic! ##### George Stayed 7 nights in May 2022 ### 8/10 Good #### Stephen Nov 16, 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Hotel located very close to the Mall of the Emirates (just across the road). Downside is traffic can be bad at peak times. Rooms on the small side, but adequate and very clean. Two bars onsite (one sports and one with live music) both reasonably priced (for Dubai). Hotel breakfast also reasonably priced (for Dubai) - but hot choices a little limited. Roof top pool nice size (15m) and very clean, only downside is limited sun bed space. Owing to Covid, only 12 at a time permitted in the pool area on sunbeds (with no more than 8 of those in pool). ##### Stephen Stayed 12 nights in Oct 2021 ### 6/10 Okay #### Jean Francois Nov 14, 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Bel hotel propre avec un bon service.

I didn't like the towels, they were too old, the room was tiny in conoarison to other rooms that seem more spacious, the bathroom was poorly installed and my safe didn't work.

Budget friendly The hotel is accessible via metro: you have to go through the Mall of Emirates to the entrance D (near the food court) and go straight through the car park, past the street at the traffic lights, turn left and now you've got only about 180 steps to the doorstep of the hotel. I met very positive people at the desk, I still think it is very important to respect each other. Before you start showering, do check if the shower tray drain is not covered (closed). Some could have heard / felt an annoying low frequency sound in the evenings probably originated from neighboring facility. If you visit Dubai as a tourist, it will not prevent you from sleep after long sightseeing... The safe is big and your notebook will fit it well. It is located over the fridge, which gives the result of somehow warming of objects inside it. Maybe the breakfast does not give a big choice of meals, you have to remember, though, that this is a 3, not 5 star hotel. Perhaps the immediate vicinity is not extremely distinguished, but you may find a number of restaurants / bars; the shopping centre with a hypermarket (its name started with the "L") is about 500m distance. ![Look at the floor -
