Excellent views of Dubai downtown and Burj Khalifa from the room! The hotel room was clean, spacious and well maintained. The service was truly exceptional and made our stay an enjoyable experience! Breakfast was delicious and in-room dining provided a great selection of multi-cuisine dishes. The hotel location is excellent - Dubai Mall and Burj are in walking distance from the property. Couple of things that can be improved - Electric switches in the room that are on the wooden touch panel don't have any haptic feedback. We personally didn't like the softer beds we received.
