Novotel Dubai Al Barsha

Amazing hotel! The amenities are all to the highest standard. Excellent breakfast with a lot of options to choose from. Very close to the Mall of the Emirates and 2min from the metro station. Every area was super clean and the staff always very helpful. My room was very big, comfortable and with a great view. I enjoyed every minute of it! A memorable experience overall. Highly recommended.

It was an average stay. Overall ambiance, area wise and breakfast wise the hotel was good. Nonetheless, the room cleaning, state of entertainment (TV) and lack of adherence to the room and additional must haves that had been requested on booking were not fulfilled.

I was disappointed about the location of the pool which no sun before the end of the day.

I made 2 reservation through Hotels. com in that week. One at Byblios Hotel another at Novotel in Dubai. I have booked 1 room for 4 persons: 2 adults and 2 children. Both hotels, asked me to pay additionally for the 4th bed as the 3rd was free. They accepted to give it for free until the end. However, why do I have to go through this process of negotiation when I book a room for 4? Why it is a room for 4 where I have to pay something additionally? It is a misleading tariff - made it smaller as a price hook? Why am I discriminated when I travel with family? When I book for 1 person, I am never asked to pay additionally. Useless to say, both hotels claimed it was partially due to the fact I booked through a third party site and not directly at the hotel

I was passing through Dubai with a 20 hour layover and chose the Novotel as it is a trusted brand and was in a location I wanted to explore. Unfortunately, I could not check in early as the rooms were booked, but staff was very kind and I was able to go to the 7th floor locker rooms to freshen up- it was a very clean space. The hotel did not disappoint as it is clean, has good wifi, is in great location with lots of restaurants nearby, has easy access to the mall, beach, and airport. I would stay here again.
