The Staff are very professional and kind. The bathroom definitely need renovation, water flow pressure need to be steady. Toilet seat is detached and was not fixed when requested to. Sink faucet is visibly rusted and need replacement.

Everything was fine except the reception desk Mr Sonu i felt he was more of an immigration officer than a check in staff too many questions. I dont think that should be the case maybe he needs more training how to welcome guest as first impression is the last impression

I want to open a case for a refund. We left after the first night.
There was so dirty, and even crime, drunk people coming out of the club and standing on the street.

Hotel in good location

Fortune Karama was decently made to suit your business travel with good location and proximity to metro &taxi. Good food joints in hotel and nearby. The housekeeping staff was pleasant and co-operative. Especially Mandeep who helped a lot during my stay. Some sound of night clubs may disturb you until 2am but you gets used to it.

If you just want to stay in a great location to stores, partying, and metro, then this is perfect. For a small budget traveler this is ok.

Quite near to metro rail station, so convenient to travel locally if metro is mode of transportation you use most.

Services like calling taxis is not available! Other miscellaneous services were not bad but either not good to be appreciated!

No cold water in shower . And is summer in Dubai.
Currently visit on business and check in with my friend to catch up . But sad hotel seems doesn’t believe the costumer. Staff might thinked that all lady who check in is “business lady “ like in the bar.
Try to explain to staff but seems was miss communication.
Even my college check in still not allowed to have talk or visit in the room. Reception put us in different block like in jail. And kind of insulting.
Good price hotel. But not recommended for business or even relaxation hotel.
To many hooker around. Definitely not a family friendly

Do not reccomend it except for location

I was visiting during Gulf Food at this hotel, so hotel prices were very high during the time. This was the cheapest hotel I could find in terms of price. However, the price I paid was not even worth it. It is a very old hotel and the rooms are not too well done up (although they are tidy). The hotel has 3 or four night clubs/bars what ever you may call it, but very shady place to stay. Seemed like a pick up point, and god only knows what must be happening inside the bars/clubs. Not the there was anything wrong happening in the lobby, but the place was a little sketchy at night.

The rooms were decent, not renovated since some time, but clean overall. Housekeeping was terrible in terms of asking for help; there was an emergency light in the room that had a green light that was on all the time, and it did not let us sleep in peace. Also the fridge stopped working and there was water on the floor, but after repeatedly asking housekeeping to rectify both the issues, they both were unattended. The safe in the room was locked before we got in, and so we could not use it. Let alone asking for someone to come check it, as we didn't expect any of that service.

Since we were out the entire day and only needed the bed to sleep in the night, it didn't make much of a difference, but I would not recommend it to anyone (specially a family or a couple)

It was extremely close to the metro (the only reason I liked the hotel) and the area have many restaurants within 1 km

On Premise Massage Open till 4AM

The clubs on premise have a reputation for being loud and filled with women looking for money then love. That much is true however the hotel itself is off limits to anyone that the staff considers to be a visitor. The half dozen security personnel ensure that the front desk staff have the manpower to enforce this policy.
Not all is lost though the hotel maintains it own massage parlor that is open till 3 or 4 am. As you would expect from health care providers who provide massage services after midnight these women will provide you the relief you seek. Unlike upscale facilities that provide such on premise services this spa is an all cash affair. Not even the nominal massage fee can be charged to your card or room.
