As I have stayed I many hotels, I have found Al Bandar’s breakfast very outdated. Their omelette station was tasteless. Some of the foods were very bland to taste and I was not fully satisfied with their current breakfast menu.

I had a wonderful stay at the Al Bandar Rotana Dubai Creek. The hotel is extremely clean, beautiful, and very well maintained. From the moment you arrive, you can notice the attention to detail and the high standards of the property.

The customer service is outstanding. Every member of the staff was friendly, professional, and always willing to help with anything we needed.

The rooms are very comfortable, with incredibly clean sheets and towels that made the stay even more pleasant. Everything felt fresh, organized, and relaxing.

The location is also excellent, making it very convenient to move around Dubai and explore the city. Another highlight was the buffet, which was absolutely excellent with a great variety of delicious options.

I highly recommend this hotel 100%. I would definitely stay here again on my next trip to Dubai.

The room was good but we did get an upgrade, however this isn’t a 5* hotel. The view to the city is great but access to metro and public transport eg taxis is limited and can be time consuming with a lot of road noise can be heard while in the room.

The spa and pool areas for the size of hotel was small. Kids pool was the size of a jacuzzi.

Room after upgrade was spacious, and if you like the bed firm to hard, you’ll be ok. Staff are all very friendly.

It’s a hotel I’d use to go to for work related visits but not a family holiday.

Outstanding stay – true 5-star experience

Our stay at Al Bandar Rotana – Dubai Creek was exceptional from start to finish. The hotel truly delivers a genuine 5-star experience, with elegant rooms, excellent cleanliness, and attention to detail throughout the property.

The location by Dubai Creek is fantastic, offering beautiful views and a calm atmosphere while still being very central. The rooms were spacious, modern, and extremely comfortable.

What really sets this hotel apart is the service. The staff were professional, welcoming, and consistently went above and beyond to ensure a perfect stay.

Dining options were excellent, breakfast was varied and high quality, and the overall ambience of the hotel felt refined and relaxing.

Highly recommended. We would absolutely stay here again.

And the night before we left we asked about a taxi. The next morning when we came down we didn’t say anything. But someone walked right up to us, took our suitcases, knew our room number and said our taxi as waiting. This hotel is hugs…and he knew who we were.

Cocktail options at the pool were a bit limited(some displayed in the fridge at the bar not included in the all inclusive package). Servers always attentive to clean our dining table. Great options to select from at the buffet, loved their croissants! Will make sure to return at Al Bandar again!

Fantastic short break!

The hotel were very accommodating as our flight arrived early morning and we couldn't check-in until 14:00. We were able to use all of the hotel facilities whilst we were waiting. This was the same on our departure, as we had a late flight. The staff were fantastic and the hotel was perfect for what we wanted. Only 10min in an Uber from the Airport and 20 minutes to Dubai Mall.

Highly recommended. If you are paying for all inclusive, it's important to be aware of the limitations on times as alcohol is only served from 12pm and until 10pm, outside of this you will need to pay, but there is a discount.

The pool area is fairly small, we found that if you arrive around 8-9am you'll have no issue getting a lounger. If you arrive later, there is a waiting list policy and the lifeguard will add your name and come get you when one becomes available. This is a great way to manage it and you can have a drink at the pool bar whilst you're waiting!

Beautiful hotel, great facilities and the breakfast was very good. The staff were excellent and very friendly apart from Ahmed who works on reception and was grumpy and never smiled. Not a good start to the holiday. We were a family of four and the room was small. My wife, my 15 year old son and 10 year old son had to share a bed. I slept in a bed that was brought in. The room should not be advertised for a family of four.

The property is very well maintained and almost all employees are very helpful (though I would argue some employees are more helpful and friendly than others). It is clear that that the hotel is intent on making sure guests have a pleasant experience during their stay. The bathroom showers are designed in a a way that may not be the best for shorter people or people with back problems. I believe the hotel should work to include bathrooms with shorter showers. Also it would've been nice if the hotel included a continental breakfast option.

Great hotel near old Dubai town - just across the channel. There is a cheap ferry for 2 AED. Not sure if this is the standard but we got an apartment with our booking. It was big with a lot of space. 2 toilets and a lot of storage. The airport is just few km away so it is convienient when you need to fly early. Great restaurant on 18th floor with beautiful views over Dubai skyline. Happy our drinks available for good price. There is a small pool on 13 floor but we didnt use it. Looked nice. The area is a mix of old and newer Dubai but still good and much cheaper than downtown or marina.

Just as a precaution make sure to watch how much money you may spend as the locals like to charge extra and judt make sure to keep that in mind when visiting. The food was amazing with plenty different options and the gym, swimming pool and bar service was top notch and to make it even better the view was breathtaking from the italian resturant (this is included in the hotel but you may have to make a reservation before-hand).
