Hotels in Bur Dubai, Dubai

The 8th Rove hotel I've stayed at and, like all the others (for the most part), it doesn't disappoint. I must say, though, that I'm not liking the introduction of the burnt orange patterned upholstery. I think it's to invoke the madjlis of Emirati culture which is a great idea, but just not a fan of the colours.

(I am the wife of guest Salem) I would like to extend my deepest gratitude and appreciation to the wonderful reception staff, Aisha (from Morocco) and Manisha (from India). They upgraded our room on the second day after we complained about the first room (it was very bad, to the point we felt like whoever chose it for us wanted to punish us). A staff member named Wajdi had told us there were no other rooms available.

Yes, the hotel is in an old neighborhood, but the staff are very polite and attentive. I constantly had the 'do not disturb' sign on, but they would leave water by the door, and I could always go and ask for water or anything else I needed, and they never refused. I didn't try the breakfasts, but there are many shops and cafes nearby.

The hotel is located near the old town, just a 5-minute walk to the metro. It's a 35-minute ride to Burj Khalifa and 1 hour 20 minutes to Marina Bay. The neighborhood surrounding the hotel is predominantly Indian, so the shops and cafes in the area are quite vibrant and authentic to that culture. It can be noisy and crowded on the streets, but everything you need is available almost 24/7. The staff is very polite and attentive. Check-in and check-out were quick. Room service was good. I used their complimentary luggage storage service at the reception. I didn't opt for breakfast. The in-room Wi-Fi was fast. I was assigned a room on the 4th floor, an accessible room (which essentially meant it was more spacious and comfortable). It was clean, tidy, and roomy. The room featured a large wardrobe, a cabinet by the entrance, a double bed, two nightstands, a desk, two chairs, a small table, a shelf, and a wall mirror. There was a large TV, a kettle, a refrigerator, plenty of power outlets, tissues, water, tea, and coffee. The lighting was good, and the light switches were convenient. The windows had thick curtains. The bathroom was huge and combined, with an accordion door, and fresh linen was provided. My main drawbacks were: 1. Poor soundproofing – even with the window closed, the street noise was unbearable. There seemed to be a dance club nearby, as low-frequency vibrations resonated through the walls late into the weekend nights (you couldn't hear it with your ears, but it definitely interfered with sleep). I was glad I was on the 4th floor. Interestingly, I stayed in a different room on the 4th floor of the same hotel a week prior, with windows facing an open courtyard, and it was significantly quieter there. 2. The air conditioning was practically unregulated – the room was incredibly, incredibly cold! I switched off the cooling right after checking in, but the background ventilation continued to cool the air (it blew directly on my feet). There was no heating mode. It was extremely uncomfortable – I couldn't walk barefoot and had to stay in warm clothes all the time. 3. No hairdryer – I'm used to blow-drying my long hair, but that wasn't an option here. This is a minor point, though. Overall, it's a very decent hotel for the price. I would gladly stay here again.

Honestly, the hotel left a lot to be desired. The service was really poor. The description clearly stated that it included transfers to the Dubai Mall (considering it's quite far) and to the beaches. However, upon arrival, we were told it wasn't available, and no alternative was offered for us to pay for a taxi if we wanted to visit those places. It's far from everything, even the metro station, so taking a taxi is the only option. The only places nearby are their own restaurants. Given the price-quality ratio, I wouldn't choose it again. I do, however, commend the cleanliness and the comprehensive breakfast.

We initially planned to stay at the One&Only Za’abeel hotel, but when we approached the SIRO reception, we met Usman. He told us about the hotel’s innovative concept—smart mattresses, rooms without TVs, and in-room fitness. He showed us the spa and, most importantly, explained how everything works. After that, Usman showed us several rooms to choose from and was incredibly friendly, so we decided to stay at the SIRO hotel in a Fitness Suite. I would also like to highlight an absolutely wonderful front desk employee, Alina. Thanks to her, we extended our stay at this hotel several times. She is extremely positive, helpful, and kind. Because of employees like her and Usman, you really want to stay at the hotel longer. SIRO is a hotel that is definitely worth experiencing.

Dear Hotel Management Team, We have safely returned home and would like to express our sincere gratitude for your excellent service during our stay. We really enjoyed our time at your hotel and were deeply impressed by the warm and professional service provided by all the staff. A special thank you to Shahid for his kind help and thoughtful assistance throughout our stay. We truly appreciate everything he did for us. Thank you again for making our trip so comfortable and memorable. We hope to visit again soon. Best regards,
