Golden Sands Dubai Creek
4.6/541 Reviews

Golden Sands Dubai Creek

Deira Dubai|1.15km from Deira Twin Towers
This was my first stay at this hotel since it was rebranded, however I have stayed over 60 nights in the past 8 years when it was a Hilton branded hotel. The ownership of the hotel hasn't changed, just the branding. So, with all that said, all I can really do is compare it to the hotel it used to be. The hotel closed for like 6 months last year and did some renovations, reopening as the Golden Sands Hotel Creek. Still a great location near the airport (DXB) but far enough out of the flight path that aircraft noise isn't really an issue. The hotel is now alcohol free. The main renovation I noticed was all new carpeting throughout and a new pool deck on the top floor. The carpet color scheme is a bit odd, with lots of light colors that already are showing stains and marks. It is a DEFINITE improvement from the old carpet which was very dated. The lobby is nice and sparkly but I always recall it was that way. The rooms were exactly the same with reupholstered furniture (still the same chrome framing and styling) and the glass top desk, wood style cabinets and black tile bathroom. I was on the 8th floor in a ”Creek View” room (yes, I could ”see” the creek) but what I really saw was the huge LED info sign on the Chamber of Commerce building that I think might be new since I last stayed in April 2021. It was really an annoyance and reminded me more of Las Vegas than Dubai. The bed was comfortable but I'm unsure if it has been replaced. Other things I noticed: bathroom sinks still drain slow; there is no way you can take a shower without partially flooding the bathroom floor; I think they removed a phone; they moved the Qibla compass from the glass desktop to the ceiling. Looks like they removed the sheer curtains and perhaps have replaced the blackout curtains. What has really changed was the pricing. I paid almost double per night from what I paid in the past, Check in was the same, always a bit slow. Since I booked through a travel site who required prepayment, all I had to pay for was the nightly some-sort-of-tax-or-fee which I was aware of. They didn't ask for nor perform a charge on my credit card so I could charge things to my room, which I found out the next night when room service ask for payment. I went the front desk the next morning and made the arrangement but somehow room service never could see that it was done so I had to pay at the time of food delivery. I thought I was told at check in that rooms would be serviced daily but I had to call daily and they always took the used towels but never gave me clean ones until I called back. I was either asking for the wrong thing or there is a serious training issue. Otherwise the room was fine although they did add a Do Not Disturb/Clean Room/Doorbell panel at the door. The breakfast buffet was nice, lots of variety and it seems more Middle Eastern style items which was great, but also very suitable Western Style foods in plenty. I frankly only ate the breakfast buffet once in the past, almost always eating breakfast and a light dinner and aperitif in the Executive Lounge (which is now closed but looks exactly the same through when you look in). So, here's the bottom line...... The hotel is nice, clean, a bit updated and still a nice boutique hotel in the Deira district, close to the airport and a larger souk A great view of the city and Dubai creek from the pool deck. If you stayed there when it was a Hilton, you will probably be a bit disappointed. The staff seemed nice, attentive, but somewhat untrained. Getting a simple document printed turned out to be a challenge and the business center was closed for some reason that didn't make sense to me. I will probably not stay there again and return to the Sheraton up the street. (which a staff member told me to go if I wanted a beer). Otherwise, give it a try and check it out for yourself! PS: Did I mention it was alcohol free? :)

Phoenicia Grand Hotel
2.4/52 Reviews

Phoenicia Grand Hotel

Deira Dubai|0.44km from Deira Twin Towers
I had one of those terrible 2 am flight departures from Dubai, so I decided to book an inexpensive hotel room to have somewhere to rest and shower before my redeye flight. I chose the Phoenicia simply because it was among the cheapest in the area when booking last minute, and Baniyas Square metro station was right in front of the hotel for easy access to the airport. It’s a simple hotel that, by international standards, would perhaps get two stars. I had booked a double room, which was small and cramped. I can only imagine how small the singles are. The room felt worn out, but the bed was comfortable and clean, there was a fridge, a safe, good A/C and even a complimentary 0.5 L water bottle. Wifi was free, but rather slow and I got cut off repeatedly so it wasn’t particularly reliable. I’ll give a plus for having several outlets by the bed. The bathroom was worn out but felt reasonably clean. The water temperature both in the shower and at the sink ranged from warm to hot, there was practically no cold water. I mentioned this at reception, and the friendly lady promised to ”double-check”. It did improve a bit when I returned from dinner, but not much. The hotel is right in the commercial heart of Deira. It’s a busy area, and while I was able to take a nap, the noise outside will probably be disturbing if you are a light sleeper. I paid €43 for a last minute booking. I suppose it was more or less the correct price for a hotel room of this quality. I would rather not stay here for several days, but as a day room it served its purpose.

Location has too much pathans making it relatively dangerous than usual. Amenities in the room is almost 0. Even the room card has to be changed. Room smells of cigarettes. Caught cold. The phone almost never works. Creepy place.

Carlton Dubai Creek Hotel
4.6/550 Reviews
Deira
The hotel is located at Dubai Creek and is close to the Airport. Check in was fast and Monica was very helpful. Rooms are spacious (room + living room + small kitchen) and 2 bathrooms. The bed was comfy and the Wi Fi speed was good. Cleaning service was good although they were coming in the afternoon. The breakfast was good and had good varieties. Ahmed from the front desk was amazing and helpful. The area behind the hotel is good. You will find some salons, barber shop, a super market and some restaurants. The room had 2 complimentary water bottles daily. On the other hand, getting a Taxi is extremely difficult and the staff at the hotel were useless, they will ask you to go out and get a Taxi by your own. The front door is locked after 10 and you have to go behind the hotel which is not convenient as it is bit dark and might feel scary a bit for some people. Moreover, no one will put additional shampoo and shower gel even if they are over till you ask for it. The area behind the hotel is very noisy and you will hear the sound of the trash truck collecting the waste. Air Conditioning remote does not work. It is either freezing cold or good enough. The elevator does not have the security and does not require the room card to be scanned nor the hotel has security. For me, I don't think I will come again.
