Swissôtel Al Murooj Dubai
Staff was absolutely fabulous. Loved the coffee and snack bar in lobby. Stayed here last year and just love the new refurbished rooms. Would suggest a grab rail in the shower for safety as it’s slippery when wet and the safe needs to be attached to the wall. Otherwise 10/10 thank you

Roda Al Murooj Residences
The staff were extremely courteous and friendly. The first room we were given was not up to par, and when we asked to be moved into another room not only did they accommodate, they took us to two 2 other rooms to pick which one we liked best! We very much appreciated this
