"Very impressed" We stayed here last weekend for a work conference but also got to spend some time sampling the facilities. Whilst generally speaking, the Jumeirah Beach part of Dubai is currently a huge building site, we were most impressed with this hotel - in particular the quality of the food and the excellent service. Ths staff throughout could not have been more friendly or helpful if they tried and the whole hotel was spotlessly clean. The pool area and private beach were both excellent. I found the food to be outstanding and thoroughly enjoyed their Italian restarant - fabulous ambience, service and cuisine. I would love to return to Dubai in 2/3 years time when all the building work is done. Had this been a holiday only, the construction going on around the hotel could have been a small problem, a little noisy and not the best panoramic views but 10/10 for an excellent stay. Thank you!

"a very nicew hotel" we have just returned from a six night stay at the Hilton Jumeirah. this is a very nice hotel the service was excellent, the room was very nice the breakfast was an extra (£12.00 aprox) this was above the normal standard with different coffee available and fresh pancakes etc. the only downside is the building work, we asked for a see view room this was fine. if your on the other side of the building its a terrilbe view. when your on the beach its easy to forget the building work. i would stay here again it was expensive at £250.00 per night but its one of the best hotels we have stayed in

"Great Hotel with a nice beach" Initial impression is that your in the middle of a construction zone. However, once inside the hotel you forget about what's going outside. We stayed 3 nights here and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The staff are friendly and attentive. Spent a lot of time on the lovely beach that the hotel has. Great selection of food at breakfast as well. Room sizes are a good size and we had one facing the beach so we couldn’t hear any of the construction at any stage. Highly recommended.

"Thoroughly recommended!" Stayed for 3 nights earlier this year and would thoroughly recommend this hotel! We were welcomed with cold drinks and ushered straight away up to the Executive floor, where we were personally checked-in and offered more refreshments. When we arrived in our room, we discovered that the extra bed ordered for our 8-year old was not there, but on enquiring, it was soon delivered - closely followed by a dish of "sweetmeats" and a card of apology from the manager! Room was more than adequate, and big enough for all of us. The bathroom was well stocked, as was the minibar. There was plenty of hanging space in the wardrobes. Balcony - although it faced on to some of the building work - provided us with beautiful sea views, and a sunset not to be forgotten! The activity on the building site was actually quite mesmerising (we actually sat out with a coffee and watched for a while!), but did not bother us at all once the doors were closed - or when we were on the beach or at the pool. Executive lounge - go for it! This was the best value of our holiday! For our room rate we were able to have breakfast (hot and cold selections, eat as much as you want), afternoon tea if we wished and, best of all, a couple of hours of free drinks and "nibbles" in the evening - although "nibbles" is not how I would describe the selection of hot and cold food available; we only actually had dinner on one of the nights of our stay, since we had filled up so much at the "happy hour" (and with alcohol being so expensive, the "free" drinks were a bonus!)! The beach was idyllic, and the pool never seemed too busy. Finally seek out the Sky Bar. What a fantastic place

"Fabulous service and excellent value" We stayed in this Hotel in September and it was perfect for our requirements. Although we knew there was some building work in the vicinty nothing prepares you for the scale of this. In saying this we had a room that was facing the sea, as they all are, and we truly did not hear anything at all. It is too hot to sit for long on your balcony so it is not a concern to anyone who stays at this hotel. We paid an extra supplement to stay on the executive floor with access to the lounge and the complimentary refreshments during the day, it is well worth it! There is a separate entrance and the rooms are on higher floors. The beach and pool areas are well equipped and the service is perfect just enough but not too much. We ate only at the Bice restaurant within the hotel, but I can say this is a world class restaurant the service was faultless and the food was wonderful. Taxis are readily available but the road outside had so many speedbumps, this would only be my small complaint and this is not the fault of the Hilton Hotel at all. I would whole heartedly recommend this hotel to anyone who wanted to visit Dubai but wanted to spend a little less than other hotels.

"Great family friendly Hotel and Don't Worry about the building work !" Just got back from a week with the family at the Jumeirah Hilton and was extremely impressed. - Great room (family suite) - Great breakfast - Fantastically friendly staff - Several really good restaurants (Italian and South American) - Small but excellent kids club - Friendly and reliable baby-sitters who are hotel employees - Good pool which is shaded for most of the day - Beautiful beach leading down to crystal clear warm (30 degrees) waters Thinking about negatives: - It is a long way from town (30 - 45 min in a taxi) - When you look behind the hotel there is a mass of construction work going on (see my photo) but it is OK because they have finished all the heavy building work so you don't notice it unless you look behind and above the hotel. I would still avoid any room which faces inland though partial sea view rooms are fine. At the hotel (UK half term holidays) many people were paying up to $350 for a standard room per night. This was after scouring the internet for bargains. I simply emailed them 3 months before, asking for the rate for the multi-national company I work for and got a family suite (2 rooms) for $250 per night. Overall I would recommend this hotel without a moments hesitation and the kids absolutely loved it !

"exellent hotel" My first trip to Dubai.Was apprehensive, but this fear was unfounded.This place is absolutely fantatic for a short break.It feels so very safe,why can't we feel this way in England.It was refreshing to walk around the bars and restaurants at night without encountering any Engish type of yob behaviour or drunks.The taxis are plentiful and cheap with no ripping off.The hotel was exellent especially all the Indan staff.

"Absolutely Fantastic Hotel" I was really apprehensive about staying at the Hilton due to the construction work I had heard so much about so I checked this site every day for new updates. As it turns out, we made the right decision to stay there. We stayed at the Hilton from Nov.12-19 and found the hotel to be absolutely fantastic and first rate. The construction work is more fascinating to look at than cumbersome. I would urge anyone planning on staying there to get a seasideview if possible, but if not, it shouldn't really ruin your stay. The staff are unbeleivably welcoming and friendly and we enjoyed every minute of our vacation. What I appreciated the most -unlike some other resorts we stayed at like in the Maldives- is that there isn't a general culture to suck as much money out of the guests as possible. They offer you complementary water in your room each morning and have a happy hour at the sports bar so you can get a few rounds of cheap drinks in before your evening meal. The Italian manager of the BICE restaurant even offered us a couple of after dinner drinks on the house after we chatted with him for a while. Everything is really made so you can enjoy your holiday. The fact that we got upgraded twice didn't hurt either. The best aspect of this hotel is that although it is a five star hotel (as most of them are in Dubai), it is very accommodating to both couples and families and at no time do you feel out of place with kids. The staff actually genuinly love kids and it is not simply a prerequisite impossed by them on management. Don't be surprised if by the end of your stay everyone knows your kid's name. The beach has some swings and a bouncy castle which is great for the kids. The priceless benefit of this hotel is that it has a day care centre so you can either leave your kids there or get a baby sitter to watch them. We went with our 15-month old boy who absolutely loved running around in the sand in the morning and playing in the day care centre in the afternoon. He was so exhausted by the end of the day that he went straight to bed in the evening and we were free to eat by ourselves in the hotel. Unlike some earlier reviews, I found the pool water to be a nice temperature and not too cold. It wasn't overpopulated either. The beach is great and you have staff who are there at your beck and call ready to bring you drinks etc. if you want. You can do a host of water sports activities but they come at an additional cost. The Italian restaurant BICE was apparently voted the best restaurant in Dubai. The food was really good but there is naturally a price tag that comes along with that. The beach side restaurant (only really open for lunch) looked good but we never really got a chance to eat there. We ate lunch once at Almuntaha restaurant at the top of the Burj Al-Arab. The food was ok but you have to be ready to walk out with a £250 bill for two at the end. The view is fantastic and it's a once in a lifetime opportunity so the choice is yours! If you are really looking for the great bargains in Dubai, go to the Karama market where you can buy anything from clothes, shoes, bootleg DVDs and fake watches. The shopping centres in Dubai are nice to stroll in but the prices don't differ that much from European prices unless there are sales on. This is definitely a hotel I would return to in the future.
