Great location, clean, friendly staff, only issue was it was noisy from above floor rooms and around during night sleep time

Shangri-La Dubai
Excellent customer service from front desk, to restaurants, executive lounge and housekeeping. Great food in the executive lounge and a wonderful place to relax. Excellent spa services. Decent location that has a shuttle to the fountain/mall. Highly recommended.

The First Collection Dubai Business Bay
We stayed at the first collection business bay for two nights and it was good although didn’t have enough time to experience facilities in full. There is no complimentary water in room and everything is chargeable which is poor for Dubai standards. This is basic necessity in life. 7/10.
