Proximity amenities are ok, the restaurant is average, for 24 floors they have two low occupancy lifts? Which can be challenging at peak hours! Be patient!

The room is perfect but I have been staying in the hotel for over 10 years. Its about time the television appliance be changed. Everything else is outstanding. I must give a generous recommendation to the gentlemen, who handles your luggage from inside and outside the hotel. The gentlemen are the cornerstone stone of Majestic. These gentlemen provide you a warm welcome and professionalism attitude. Especially Mr. Derrick, who always provide great customer service. Thank you

The front office staff during check-in were very considerate and helpful where seeing we check-in early morning at 4am our checkout time was extended by 2 hours which was very helpful for us.

I would highly recommend Majestic retreat Hotel for anyone who wants to have a stay in Dubai during their long layover during transit.

Great view from the 20 th floor too!

I wanted a place that offered breakfast, and was skeptical about what breakfast they offered. I LOVED the breakfast and variety of foods they had. Our room was clean, housekeeping was great, staff was great and friendly. There was supermarkets and pharmacies within a couple minutes walk. Souks within walking distance. The view was and balcony was beautiful. The tub was really nice, water pressure was good. We enjoyed the pool several days, as well as the saunas.
There were no microwaves, but everything else was fantastic. I would recommend this hotel. I’m a foodie, and just loved the breakfast. A large variety, I always left stuffed because I wanted a little bit of everything.

isappointing Experience

The Majestic Hotel has several equipment issues, including non-functional fridge, old TV with only analog channels, and an electric water heater that provides only a few minutes of hot water. The noisy AC made it difficult to sleep at night. Despite requesting a non-smoking room, the room smelled of smoke. Additionally, for a 24-floor hotel, having only two lifts led to long wait times, especially during breakfast. The hotel caters heavily to tourists from India, with Indian-flavored dishes and music in all restaurants and bars, The Majestic Hotel's old equipment needs refurbishment, as they are not functioning properly. Additionally, the smoke detector kept alarming throughout the night, causing inconvenience. The only advantage was the free valet parking.

My experience at the hotel was so distressing that I would not consider returning, even if offered a stay for free. Initially, I was placed in a room that was both unsightly and foul-smelling. Matters worsened when I had to switch to another room that was in an even poorer condition, and I was forced to settle for a twin bed room despite being alone. The tranquility of my stay was constantly interrupted by loud music from nearby clubs during the night. Additionally, the hotel's elevator service was severely lacking, with only two elevators for a large building, causing long waiting times.

The reviews rating was 8.6 ... It is hugely misleading .

This hotel is not diverse and I won,t recommend this. You may think you are India and not Dubai. The worst of it all they have 8 nightclubs with load music until 4am. None of these are diverse and all play Indian music. Is great for those who want to explore the Indian culture. The staff are friendly. Be aware that the spa and sauna come at an extra charge. My biggest regret 😪 it was also my first time in Dubai. It was a complete waste of money fell ill after not being able to get a decent night sleep.

2. There are only 2 elevators and took me 10 minutes to get a ride (up and down). The elevator was always full of people

3. The toilet spred an unbelievable smell and when I called they brought someone with an air freshener. It didn't help at all. I couldnt sleep and had to change to another room. Same smell form time to time

4. An alarm noice starts shouting at random times Daily and after midnight. It woke me up every time. No answer from receptionists on what it was

This hotel does have one thing that I like and that is the restaurant/bar called \"Sundowners.\" The things I didn't like is the room we were given didn't have a walk in shower so finally Customer Service moved us to a room with a walk in shower. Next thing was there was no iron in the room, no slippers, and the smell throughout the hotel is not good. This hotel is way different than before due to it being under new management. Lastly, we asked multiple times for towels and shampoo and didn't receive until we checked out. Unacceptable hotel for any traveler.

Overall property condition was good except for some construction works were going on at the pool area. The hotel has added a night club at the top floor and I was provided with a room a floor below the night club. The sound kept disturbing at night.

Further, the hotel seems to have some management issue in handling reservation. I booked the hotel a week in advance through Expedia. The hotel sent me a notification a day before my arrival while I was travelling stating that I should contact them directly otherwise they will cancel my reservation. Pretty strange! I had to contact Expedia and they had to deal with the hotel to keep my reservation effective until my arrival. This is the hotel I used to choose while travelling to Dubai. However, it looks like the hotel is compromising in its services.
