Guest Reviews
- Sana (2/5): - Very rude staff Manager was disrespectful and didn’t even call me back with my concerns
- Timothy (10/5): - From our check in early to the whole experience of our stay very good
- Zsolt (8/5): - Was just fine. Very friendly staff
- Moutaz (10/5): - Great Place
- Fariman Tony (8/5): - Overall good
- Nik Faizal (10/5): Nice Place To Stay ! - So closed with Marina Malls .The staff are kind and friendly . House keeping Baraccat are Nice . Thank you for make up My room . The beach 10 - 15 mnts walk . Will staying here again if I’m back !
- Peta-Gaye (6/5): - Good hotel friendly staff
- HANY (8/5): - Good stay nice staff
- Vasily (8/5): - The hotel was a good value for money. Reception folks and ladies are very helpful and polite. The Room was clean and nice. The pool was ok, although a bit overcrowded. It’s possible to buy souvenirs or book tours on the ground floor. There is a nice restaurant downstairs where all day meal is available should need one. The room furniture and oven would need some refurbishing. It was kind of challenge to cook as the cooker didn’t work properly and didn’t go off according to the position of regulator. It might be only in our room though and I don’t about others.
- rajula2025 (6/5): Hotel was decent - Decent hotel a little old fashion but not so bad. What was impressive are the housekeeping team, there were extremely friendly, helpful and very polite. I would like the particularly praise Shaidul Islam, Rajesh and Amar made sure my room was clean throughout my stay
- Mobile36021796851 (10/5): What a great hotel! - This is a great hotel, the staff are SO lovely, very professional. We particularly wanted to praise Rajesh, from the housekeeping staff. Every morning we left the room he would greet us with a warm welcome, check with us to see if we needed anything and he made up our room so perfectly! He was very thorough, and ever so sweet; what a lovely man! He’s a real credit to the team. The room sizes are quite big, and the bed is huge! Everything was clean, and the room service is impressive! Massive portions, really nice food! The hotel is a few minutes walk away from the marina too! Thanks for having us Marina View!
- Faisal (2/5): - Awful property. Looks old and overused. Room is smelly with flying insects. Worst stay ever
- MugNap1 (10/5): Memorable stay - My stay at Marina view was fantastic. The hotel's attention to detail, excellent service, and comfortable,clean room made it a truly memorable experience. Thanks Sharzlah for always take care of my room. I would highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a great place to stay."
- Verified traveler (6/5): Good For One Night - One night stay. Hotel staff was good. The hotel itself is in need of an update but it was fine for one night. Fair value. Would stay again if necessary but wouldn’t be too excited about it either.
- Danijel (4/5): - When we came, they told us that they are overbooked And that they give our room to someone else even thou it was reserved.
- Heather (2/5): - We booked here months in advance, only to arrive after 25 hours of travel to be told they don’t have a room for us due to maintenance and they were going to cab us 20 minutes away out of the marina to another hotel. No compensation and no other choice. After they made us wait another two hours, Expedia helped us move to another marina hotel. Choose another hotel, any other one if you want to avoid poor management and communication nightmares
- julielE8253ZM (10/5): Really good budget choice - Wonderful staff, great customer service,nothing too much trouble, from reception,restraunt to housekeeping Central location. Well equipped kitchen,full size fridge, washing machine (washing powder supplied by housekeeping) bottled water & bathroom supplies replenished daily. Breakfast was continental. Pool is wonderful but be conscious of sun being blocked by high rise buildings around it in afternoon. 1 bedroom app with camp bed for 3rd person. Mattress was uncomfortable, housekeeping even got a proper bed mattress.
- lorrainebriody94 (4/5): Rude staff - Arrived after 9am in the morning to be greeted by a rude and unhelpful female receptionist, who checked us in. Every question asked was returned with payment no customer service at all. The concierge was an absolute plague every time you went into reception he was hounding you to get a taxi and made us feel uncomfortable and resulted in us trying to avoid walking in or out of the lobby. We enquired about taxi to the airport which we were told it would be such a price and when our bags were in the car we were told it was more expensive. Again staff were very rude and unprofessional. Rooms were clean but very out dated and some repairs needed from wear and tear. However rooms were clean. Breakfast was lovely and great choices were available.
- khalid (6/5): - Staff very helpful and friendly except for the lady who sits at the front organising tours etc as she was not helpful or pleasant. We where going to book a tour but after talking to her we changed our plans
- Mostafa (4/5): - I stayed at this hotel, and while the staff were friendly and polite, the overall experience was disappointing. The room’s furniture was very old and outdated. Despite requesting a non-smoking room, my room had a strong cigarette smell that never went away throughout my stay. The worst part was the presence of small mosquitoes in the room at all times, which made it very uncomfortable.
- Jessica (6/5): - It’s a decent hotel. Rooms are outdated. It is walking distance to the marina and restaurants/shopping. It is an affordable place to stay in Dubai.
- Asma (8/5): - Alles was behoorlijk dichtbij en op wandelafstand. Ontbijt van hotel was wel niet lekker maar op 15min wandelen ben je bij Lash
- Adrian (8/5): - Spacious
- Alex (6/5): - The property condition is outdated. The maintenance in the room is not up to par. However, the staff were really good and professional location of the property it’s really convenient to get to the metro tram Marina shopping and JBR.
- 528dilipm (10/5): Great location - Great location near Dubai Marina. Dubai Marina provides a beautiful and serene environment. With such a lovely environment, and lovely stroll particularly in the evening. Great restaurants and close to Marina mall. Sagar Trivedi the owner was very welcoming and made our stay a truly memorable one . Thank you for the upgrade on the 9th floor. The apartment had everything you could want. The breakfast in the restaurant was very good. They made special food for us🌞. In addition to the usual breakfast choices. Filter coffee was particularly welcome ! Happy to recommend Dubai Marina if you want a friendly experience within each reach of DMCC metro and major attractions. Sagarbhai thank you so much for looking after us. Happy to return on our next visit to Dubai.
- Hicham (10/5): Nice stay in marina view - Excellent over all. Nice location close to Jumaira marina, Dubaï marina mall and shuba metro.
- Antonino (8/5): - Very good spot in perfect location. The hotel needs to be renovated
- michael (10/5): - Great and helpful staff!!! Very good location!!!!
- Paul (10/5): - A great place good location walking distance to Marina mall and metro. Room / Apartment was great had everything I needed cooker, washing machine and fridge. Restaurant was very good with nice food.All staff were friendly and helpfull. All in all a great place to stay would definitely go back.
- Ian (10/5): - Spotlessly clean, 3 free bottles of water every day, friendly staff
- Duro (8/5): - Good service
- James (6/5): - Properly very convenient to amenities very clean but a bit dated staff excellent
- angelbert (6/5): - The people who worked there were really nice, but don’t eat the breakfast and they charge you a lot for it seems like an animal trough
- JohnandLorraine65 (8/5): Nice old hotel - We stayed here from 30/12/24 till 02/01/25 We were room only so couldn’t tell you about any of the other things there Hotel is situated very handy close to the marina 5 mins walk maximum Hotel was quite old do just needs a little money spent in it to bring it up to Dubai standards The best thing about the hotel was the staff They we’re absolutely superb Couldn’t do enough for us A very special mention to Rahman What a lovely man Very knowledgeable Very friendly he was brilliant He even managed to reunite me with my phone which I had left in a taxi Thank you Rahman you deserve a rise !!
- Zoe (10/5): Lovely as always - I’ve been coming to this hotel for a few years now , the staff are always so welcoming and helpful . The location is ideal , near to the metro , supermarkets next door and easy walk to the marina . The only negative I can say is that as it’s on a main road it can be noisy .
- Vitaliy (8/5): - Good location. Close to the metro, and close to the Marina. Friendly and helpful staff. Having small kitchenette in the room was a plus. Unit itself though a bit outdated. Had some issues, which were resolved by the maintenance. Our room was facing the highway, so also had some road noise.
- Liza (10/5): - Marina View Hotel and Apartments.Nice place to stay in close to Marina Bay, train and groceries. Staffs are very friendly and helpful especially Zoraida the receptionist , Rahman and Lara. Superb! We really enjoyed our stay here. Hope to come back soon!!!
- Keith (10/5): Excellent value for money and location - Staff very helpful and attentive. Excellent location near marina mall. Good value for money considering only a 15 minute walk from JBR
- Ayman (10/5): - Nice as described. Thanks
- Peter (6/5): - The property was conveniently situated.
- Harry (8/5): Self-service stay in Dubai for reasonable price - I wanted somewhere in the Marina, fair priced and to be able to avoid going out for meals every night. This was a good choice. Well located near the subway and for the Marina Walk and plenty of Careem taxis in the area. The one downside was the lack of variety of food utensils in the room - just plates and small coffee cups. But that’s a small issue. The room was clean, quiet and well maintained. The pool and area were very pleasant and there were plenty of local eateries and supermarkets to choose from.
- Muhammad (10/5): - Excellent customers service.
- Graham (8/5): - Convenient location to get to the Metro, malls and beach.
- Kaleem (4/5): - Rooms are cramped, pricey, beds are extremely uncomfortable, especially two twin beds in a single room are very closely adjacent to each other. Very poor quality for this price range. Breakfast is lacking in equality and taste & selection. The eggs look very undesirable, creamy and whipped, poor bread, selection, poor juice quality, equivalent to sugar water. The coffee is see-through and so weak. This management has a lot to learn to provide better quality for the money they are charging. At least the pool area was clean
- I5367KWmichaelah (4/5): Fine if your on a budget - Fine for if you’re on a budget. Booked it as reviews were good and only a few bad ones. Started off fine room was okay, a bit dated but we knew that when booking. Breakfast was not good only ended up getting it once and going elsewhere every other day. No air conditioning in the restaurant (not ideal in Dubai heat) and not a huge selection for breakfast. Room wasn’t cleaned until 5pm each day often had to tell them just give us towels and we wanted to shower and get ready for the evening. The concierge was an absolute plague every time you went into reception he was hounding you to get a taxi. We got a taxi once or twice off them and they take your phone number to book it- he proceeded to text us regularly trying to get us to get a taxi with them. Pool was freezing cold and not a huge amount of loungers and some were quite old. When checking out at 3:30am staff ignored us and sat on their phones until I called them to the desk. Checked out and had a taxi booked with them for 3:30am and asked to pay card, surprise surprise they had no card machine working and told us to go to an atm and get cash, we refused and a card machine magically appeared. Wouldn’t return here.
- hans (8/5): - Location was everything. About 5 minutes walking to the marina walk and about 20 min walk to the Jumeirah beach. Food at the restaurant was good. Very friendly and helpfull staff. The bath tub couls do better.
- Peter (10/5): Best staff ever - The Hotel is like in photos, all the staff is of top class level. From reception to cleaner could work at a 7 star hotel. Nothing to complain about at all. I recommend this hotel from my hart.
- fenderek_tw (8/5): Good value for money in Dubai - It changed a bit since I last was there (back in... 2015?). It's a bit more budget. At the same time- it's a fantastic location. Marina is close. Metro is close. You can see entrire Dubai without need for a car- and price is actually reasonable. It's not a luxury, but it's absolutely fine- and most importantly clean.
- Mike (8/5): - Great access to Marina walking
- Rhiannon (8/5): - They did not have half the stuff needed to use the kitchen like frying pan. No oven to make frozen pizza!
- Matt (10/5): - I had a very pleasurable long term stay. Very nice staff, great room service
- Bilal (8/5): - Good hotel, great area. Wish they gave you more than two towels per day.
- DAVID (10/5): - Fantastic. Thanks to the hospitality team.
- JILLO (10/5): - Good place to stay around Marina Dubai. I will definily recommend the property to my friends who will be visiting the Emirates.
- Mike (10/5): - Front desk people were nice
- shahin (8/5): - Good location. Friendly staff. Furniture feels & looks old. Bathroom tub needs attention/update
- Marlene de Jesus (6/5): - I recently stayed at a hotel that I found to be conveniently located near various amenities such as transportation, restaurants, and boasting wonderful views. However, I faced some challenges during my stay. Firstly, upon arrival, I had to wait for an hour for my room to be ready, despite having just completed a long trip. Unfortunately, the receptionist appeared to be under pressure and struggled to communicate effectively amidst the backdrop of several other guests raising complaints. Additionally, while exploring the hotel, I observed that employees at souvenir shops were overly attentive, causing me discomfort. While the hotel offers a range of activity options, prices are on the higher end. With respect to the hotel facilities, I found the rooms to be clean and comfortable. However, I noticed that the kitchen requires some renovation. Overall, the hotel's location is excellent, but the high price point may not be commensurate with the outdated kitchen.
- Sami (8/5): - the location and the staff are great the hotel need Renovation big time breakfast is just ok nothing special could be better
- Fatmah (2/5): - Hotel is very old. Smelly wet carpets and elevators
- Verified traveler (4/5): Short stay - Unfortunately I found out it's an old building. When I asked for upgrade of what I booked after I looked at the room they asked for very high amount
- zoe (10/5): Lovely stay - My third time staying here . The staff are so accommodating and very helpful . Location is ideal , near to the metro , marina mall and about 20 minute walk to the beach . The rooms are quite basic but if you need anything extra the staff will provide very quickly
- Diego (8/5): - Good stay overall
- E. Stephen (10/5): Nice hotel, great staff! - Nice hotel, convenient to Sobha Metro station, with friendly and helpful staff.
- Daniel (8/5): - We found the Marina View Hotel Apartments ideal for our stay with the location with its proximity to both the Marina promenade/area and the metro/tram. The cleaning staff were excellent and serviced the room daily and the only thing my wife missed was not having a balcony to sit out on but we were close to a main road which would probably not have been great as roads in Dubai are generally very busy. Unusually we had some rain during our stay and some of the rainwater managed to get into our room, which we pointed out to the cleaning staff who very quickly sorted it out. We had one episode during our stay when we were trying to get a taxi from outside of our hotel and asked the concierge. I understood he had gone into the hotel to arrange one and within a minutes a 'white' taxi arrived (similar to the one who transferred us from the airport). It turned out that this is a 'private hire' car not one of the normal taxis limited to the charges set by the government and we were subsequently charged 3 x what the normal taxi charge would have charged us, so avoid these at all costs. When I queried this the next day in the hotel reception the concierge couldn't recall ordering me one and stated he would not have ordered a 'private hire' car in any case so I can only presume my request got 'lost in translation' and put this down to experience. Other than this we enjoyed our stay in Dubai and would certainly recommend the Marina View Hotel as a good base for a visit.
- Robert (10/5): Marina View Apts - Perfect.location to beach, marina walk, food stores and Metro
- Nataliya (6/5): - I was very upset when they gave us room on a smoking floor, I didn’t want to be there, then they moved us to another room, while eating our dinner, I saw big cockroach, I was so upset, my suitcase was on the floor and open, I do not want to bring home cockroaches, they moved us to the first floor for that night and they said tomorrow they can move us to the eighth floor, so the room on the eighth floor was ok, really needs a good cleaning, huge stain in a tub, it’s probably not washable, everything is in ok condition and really needs updating, kitchen barely stuffed, no soap or sponge, no pan to cook, we asked so they brought it for us, workers friendly and helpful and did probably the best to accommodate us, but this property is disappointing, the only thing is, it’s close to metro and marina, I traveled a lot and stay in different hotels and this was in the worst condition that I ever stayed at, at least we got the room without cockroaches, or maybe we just didn’t see it, not sure, it was disgusting and very upsetting, I liked that they have shuttle to the beach, kitchen cabinets is in not pleasant condition, this property really needs to be upgraded.
- Simon (8/5): - Nice comfortable hotel
- Ararat (10/5): - Very friendly and professional management. Special thanks to supervisor Arthur. All workers smiling and super friendly
- Andrea (8/5): - Excellent staff at reception, comfortable rooms, location perfect! We were 3persons in a small apartment ( living room 1 bedroom) and they put an extra bed to the living room, which was also comfortable. Really just about 10 minutes walk to the JBR and Marina beach. The Marina Walk is 5 minutes on foot, also few minutes to the Marina mall and the Metro station. If your room faces the Main road it is a bit noisy even with closed windows, but we did not have problem sleeping. Daily cleaning is fine, several bottles of water provided free of charge each day. The condition of the rooms is a bit lousy, i.e. in the bathtub there were traces of the paint they had used for painting the wall.. and as this is a relatively old hotel, it surely must have been there for years! Nevertheless I would choose it again.
- Robert (4/5): Terrible WiFi - The room was not as clean as they should be, the windows were dirty and the WiFi was terrible. The room was comfortable, the location was good and the staff were nice.
- Jonathan (10/5): Well set up & located for Shabbat at Chabad Dubai - Friendly staff, large clean rooms. Stayed in a suite that was very reasonably priced. Just a five minute walk from where Chabad Dubai have Shabbat services and meals.
- Osama (2/5): - It is unclean. Had to purchase cleaning supplys and towels. Sheets are dirty. Customer service only care about money.
- Ibraheem (10/5): Highly recommended hotel - The hotel service was outstanding. It is in a very convenient location with the metro station approx 5 minute walk directly opposite the hotel and 10 minute walk to Jumeriah Beach. The hotel room was cleaned on a daily and the bed was really comfortable. Only downfall is the kitchen cabinet was hanging down, I think the apartment need a little modernising. Although, that was a downfall the stay overall was amazing. Air con throughout the hotel and room.
- fiona (4/5): - Staff lovely but shabby executive room, aircon issues and breakfast delivered cold, bath is not big enough for a normal sized human ! Not value for money at all :(
- Neelam (6/5): - The only good point this property was near the Metro the bad point is the room we were first given was the size of a cupboard. Not as you see in the pictures. We had to complain and the other 2 choices were only slightly better but needed redecorating. Kitchen cupboards broken fridge old and noisy. the room was disappointing we know they had decorated rooms but said hotel is booked. I will not rebook this hotel again.
- Michael (2/5): Not a pleasant stay - Had to move Hotel after 4 days , not putting towels in room, uncomfortable beds. Room not catered for 2 adults and a child . Things falling apart in room like , toilet seat , cupboard doors
- ALEXANDER (8/5): - Great location, good value for your money, close to metro station, Marina walk, restaurants, beach, Marina Mall, supermarkets; needs some cosmetic repairs. Good amenities, including fully equiped kitchenette, washing mashine; ask for drying cloth rack if you need. Very friendly and responsive staff- ready to help at any time and provide good cleaning. We stayed for two weeks in a comfortable studio apartment on 8th floor (non-smoking) and enjoyed our extended stay. Special thanks to staff member Aslam- nice, caring, friendly young man!
- Kirsty (8/5): Good overall - As previous reviews say - a bit run down and not the cleanest.. my sheets had some markings from previous stains (they were clean and fresh though). This doesn't bother me much but I know some would be bothered. Otherwise great pool and gym area good, service excellent, room amenities very good, walking distance to loads of good areas, would stay again.
- Joven (10/5): Accommodating - The Filipino receptionist is very accommodating
- Mary (8/5): Good value in a good location. - The Marina View is in an excellent location with easy access to the Metro, Marina Mall, and the Walk at JBR. The staff were excellent - extremely helpful. The hotel is a bit tired in terms of decor and furnishings, but it was very clean and comfortable none the less.
- Jamie (2/5): - This property was a disaster. It is not marketed properly. The rooms are old, I changed appartments twice and both have sound issues due to the windows not fitting properly, the design is old and the kitchen is basic with no finishing touches. The wifi also is archaic and does not work properly. It is a 2.5 star property at best.
- Rovshan (4/5): So so - Plus for a location. Rated as pour.
- Mozher (6/5): - After paying for this expensive hotel for 18 nights, the extra single bed brovided was uncomfortable. When my family decided to stay an extra night, the manegement tried to charge them more than duble the night price for a smaller room { studio}. When my fafily objected they didnt care. My fafilly had to move for anothe hotel. Shame on them.
- Rebbecca (6/5): - Property overall is ok but our fridge broke and our toilet was leaking which left a bad smell
- Pourya (4/5): It’s 2 star at best with a foul smell - This is not a 4 star hotel- Thai is a 2 star at best / rooms smell - it is old and ugly It is not a nice place to stay
- zoe (6/5): Basic - Positives : the staff are lovely , housekeeping , reception and pool staff are all very attentive . Location is great , easy to walk to the marina , close to transport connections and supermarkets all around . Nice pool area which gets the sun all day . Not so good: My room wasn’t great . Classed as a deluxe studio but it’s the smallest room I have ever stayed in in Dubai . There were ants everywhere in the bathroom and kitchen area . The hot water situation was poor . Never any hot water at night or morning for a shower and the water pressure was rubbish . Minimum utensils and crockery in the kitchen area and no washing up liquid or cleaning things provided . To sum up , it’s good if you’re after basic .
- Sinan (4/5): - The room was not clean, every thing there need a major maintenence for example tried to move a chair in the room and peace of wood came off, batheroom drawers came off, the room was 1 king bed for family of 4, no sofa bed and they said will charge me for extra bed, i tried to leave the hotel from day 1 of my 6 nights reservation but they refused to refund me.
- Steven (2/5): Charged for extra beds on checkin beware!! - Booked a room for a family of four only to be told at check in we would have to pay for the extra two beds! Absolutely ridiculous showed them our booking confirmation for two adults and two children and they said this is a common issue with Hotels.com, room was shabby and dirty. Avoid if possible.
- Abdul (2/5): - This property was terrible. No hot water. Dirty sink. Bugs fly out of the sink. Dryer wasn’t drying the clothes.
- Jamie-Lee (2/5): - worst place I've ever stayed. bed bugs a first night. management denying the situation. moved my room but the quality is so deceiving from online. flies all over breakfast. had a package delivered to the hotel very important for work and the hotel concierge declined it and turned it back although I told them to hold it and was a guest. when my room was made up the cleaners would forget toilet paper, basic things, and the phone didn't operate. do not stay here.
- david (2/5): Not as advertised - Not a four star hotel, not even close. Dirty and poorly kept.
- Samira (10/5): Worth booking - Had an amazing stay at the Marina view hotel apartment... all tourist spits close withing walking distance or via taxi... hotel clean .... try and book at sea view or beach side room as opposed to city view as sometime noise can interruot sleep... food at resturant was lovely and room service was brilliant ... stafff friendly and polite and very accomadating... lovely gift shop in hotel to grab ur goodies for family.... lovely area... close to jbr ... can walk or taxi.. overall it was a brilliant apartment ... such a great help with the washing machine... would defo recommend booking its worth it.
- Karolina (4/5): Not good stay - So we booked 3 adults , 1 bed apartment , thinking that logic for one person they prepare bed in living room , maybe sofa bed anything . To our huge surprise we been told we could have booked for 5 adults we would still only get 1 bed ??? I mean how can I make a booking for 3 adults ( my son is third ) and get 1 double bed ?? Out of my understanding . And then they asked me extra cash per night to bring additional bed . Not nice communication in the reception . Only good is location .
- Marianna (8/5): - Centerly located, clean, they also have free shuttle to the beach and malls
- Ryan El (6/5): - The wifi wasn’t connecting properly
- Kevin (10/5): Expat - In Dubai long term for work - Having stayed in many short term lets in various parts of Dubai, I definitely rate this hotel highly for value for money and location. My room was excellent and the location is great, beach a short walk away, metro nearby etc. Connectivity was also excellent, thus enabling me to work from the hotel room at no additional data cost and on occasion the staff printed 1-2 page documents at no additional cost. Overall, the staff were attentive. My only slight negative is that when I'd thought I'd lost some jewellery and looked behind/under bed it was apparant that only what was visible waa cleaned before I took possession of my room. Overall, very pleased and will stay again
- Verified traveler (4/5): Family staycation - We had a confirmed reservation for 3 adults and one child for the one-bedroom apartment, but there was only one bed in the apartment. Upon checkin I was told we were supposed to share the existing facilities (!). We requested a rollway cot, which was quite expensive and only fit one person. In the end, one of my daughters wound up sleeping on the floor or on the couch. Too bad, because this hotel has some good things going for it, is in a good location and the pool area is quite nice.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Nice hotel, friendly staff, excellent location
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Represents excellent value for money. Not luxurious accommodation but rooms and facilities are good. Position, service and staff all very good. Would use again.
- Verified traveler (8/5): Good Hotel Apartment - Overall it was a good hotel and very nice staff, good service and in short time staff cime after calling room service or house keeping. The swimming pool also was good. The reception staff also very helpful.
