The hype
Guests are blown away by the breakfast and the views from high floors, but consistently complain about the elevator logistics and traffic getting in/out of Business Bay.
Jw Marriott Marquis Hotel Dubai
$150-250/ noche
Reserva esto si You want a 'city within a city' experience with 12+ restaurants and a massive pool deck, and don't mind being a 10-minute cab ride from the actual Downtown core.
Por qué a la gente le encanta
- Incredible breakfast buffet at Kitchen6 with six live cooking stations
- Corner Suites offer panoramic floor-to-ceiling views of the Burj Khalifa and canal
- The Vault bar on the 71st/72nd floor has some of the best skyline views in Dubai
Resumen rápido: It's a massive, bustling convention hotel that feels like an airport terminal for business travelers, but the dining and views are world-class if you can handle the crowds.
Reseñado por @prossy_young: I brought the whole family here and the sheer size of the room was a game changer. The kids had space to burn energy while I relaxed in that massive soaking tub. If you need room to breathe in Dubai, this is the spot.
Lo que dijeron los huéspedes que se hospedaron aquí
Reality check
You aren't walking anywhere. Despite looking close to things on a map, the highway and construction make walking to Dubai Mall or the Metro nearly impossible/dangerous.
- You are a Marriott Bonvoy elite member (the lounge is excellent)
- You want to eat at top-tier restaurants without leaving your hotel
- You love high-rise city views and modern, glossy interiors
Limpieza y Mantenimiento
8.5
- Housekeeping: Generally sharp and daily, but missed spots (dust on high ledges) are common due to room volume.
- Bathroom hygiene: Sparkling. Marble is well-maintained, though some grout lines show age in older rooms.
- Maintenance: Good, but high traffic means occasional scuffs on walls and worn carpets in hallways.
- Linens & towels: Crisp, high-thread-count Marriott standard. Towels are fluffy and plentiful.
- Odors & scents: Lobby is heavily perfumed. Some non-smoking rooms have faint stale smoke smells from rule-breakers.

Consejos de Insiders
- ✨
The 'Dead Sea' flotation pool in Saray Spa is a hidden gem, but it requires a paid treatment or day pass—it's not free for all guests.
- ✨
Use the 'Tower B' elevators if you can; they are often slightly less chaotic than Tower A during convention peaks.
- ✨
Happy Hour at Vault (usually 5-7pm) gets you the same million-dollar view for half the price of a regular cocktail.
5 cosas que debes saber antes de ir
💡The windows are often dusty on the outside due to desert sandstorms, which can slightly mar that perfect view.
💡You have to change elevators at the mezzanine level to get to the pool, which is annoying in a bathrobe.
💡The 'Sea View' is mostly a view of a highway and construction cranes with the sea in the far distance.
💡The lobby scent is intense—a signature heavy floral/oud fragrance that you will either love or get a headache from.
💡Room service breakfast is surprisingly good value compared to the buffet if you just want coffee and eggs.
