I loved everything from the excellent service to the amazing rooms. However the main setback was in fact the creepiness of the whole thing. The place was totally empty! There was nobody in the hotel, I swear! I have no idea why. The staff may have been just a little bit too friendly, the place might have been just a... more

We stayed for 7 nights over Easter 2009. My husband and I with our 21 month toddler. We had a really great time and I would definately use the hotel again for business or leisure travel to Dubai. For those that say hotel is quite, staff bored etc....take a look at the whole of the city, this is not monarch... more

Don't stay here if you are on holiday but as a business hotel this is nearly second to none. Excellent rooms, unbelieveable bathrooms, beds and service in general. It is back from the beaches but on the main drag at the begining - costs you 20 usd to get to Ski Dubai for example but if you are worried about... more

I spent 9 nights at the Monarch Dubai while I visited Dubai for the Big 5 Exhibition. The amazing part of my experience, I won 6 nights free though DMG the exhibition organizer. I decided to extend for 3 additional nights since I was not willing to spoil this wonderful experience by moving to another hotel. The service was exceptional,... more

I had to stay at The Monarch during month of October 08 due to business meetings in Dubai, my agent was strongly recommending this hotel to me but I was not sure if I should try or not but I was really surprised with the quality and amazing service and value for money. (Just fantastic hotel) I do recommend it... more

Excellent service provided by all staff. The hotel was quiet perhaps due to the time of year and there appeared to be far more staff than guests. From the doormen, reception staff, lift attendents, butlers to the restaurant staff all provided faultless service. The room was a very good size with far reaching views over the swimming pool terrace to... more

Having stayed at many 5* properties around the world I can report the service at the Monarch was the equal of any. The VIP collection at the airport was very welcome after a long flight, with our passports processed and luggage collected while we enjoued a cold drink and canapes in a lounge. We where then whisked to the hotel... more

Just tried out the hotel last week. Although they have just opened and are still missing some restaurants, we had a fabulous stay. They have huge rooms and a bathroom much nicer than the average 5 star hotel. Great service overall; the butler even did all the packing and unpacking for us. Bliss! more
