About the property

Al Bandar Rotana is a striking, ultra-modern hotel with a prime waterside location in the city’s original heartland. Ideal for business and leisure travellers, the elegant five-star property, which sits on the edge of Dubai Creek is close to several attractions including the Dubai Creek Golf & Yacht Club, Dubai Dolphinarium at Creek Park and the new Rise Dubai Creek Harbour development — an entertainment centre that plays host to live music, DJ sets, movie screenings and unusual casual dining concepts. All 190 rooms and suites offer stunning city or creek views, are stylishly furnished and feature the latest in-room amenities and technology. Options range from spacious standard rooms to palatial suites, so whether you are travelling alone or with family, you will feel at home in this creekside haven. Club Rotana rooms and suites are available too, offering added benefits, from lounge access to personalised services. The five dining venues introduce new gastronomic experiences to Dubai Creek, from Morgan’s gastropub, the only gastropub concept in the area, to Gusto Italian Restaurant, serving seasonal authentic food. Guests can also experience a culinary feast at all-day international dining restaurant Salt & Pepper, enjoy a hot drink or snack in the stylish Vanilla Lobby Lounge, head to The Deck Pool Lounge to dine al fresco, or choose from the vast in-room dining menu. The Club Rotana Lounge also serves beverages and light meals. All outlets each have a stunning terrace overlooking Dubai Creek and Dubai’s spectacular skyline. Keep your body and mind in good shape at Bodylines Fitness & Wellness Club where modern facilities include a contemporary gym with cardiovascular and free-weight training areas, an outdoor swimming pool and sauna, steam and massage rooms. Six meeting rooms with natural daylight offer business executives the latest technology and audio visual equipment ensuring events run without a hitch. Al Rotana Bandar is minutes by road from Dubai International Airport, Dubai World Trade Centre and major malls and souks. Dubai’s Diplomatic District, home to major embassies, is also close to the hotel.

I recently stayed at Al Bandar Rotana and had an exceptional experience. The staff was incredibly friendly and accommodating, making sure all my needs were met. The room was spacious, clean, and well-appointed with all the amenities one could need. The location was perfect, close to major attractions and public transportation. The on-site restaurant served delicious meals. Overall, I highly recommend Al Bandar rotana for anyone looking for a comfortable and enjoyable stay in Dubai.

Excellent stay, we had an early flight and the hotel let us check in early with an upgrade so we could rest, so thankful for that. The room was nice and roomy, and the staff was warm and welcoming. Would definitely stay here again!

Information about the area

Deira, United Arab Emirates

Deira (In Arabic: ديرة) is an area in the city of Dubai, United Arab Emirates bordered by the Persian Gulf, Sharjah and Dubai Creek. Historically, Deira has been the commercial center of Dubai, but has been losing its importance during the past few years due to recent[when?] development along E 11 road (Sheikh Zayed Road) and areas further down the coast toward Abu Dhabi.[citation needed] Port Saeed is a small port along Deira's shore of Dubai Creek. Port Saeed holds some of the dhow cruises and small shipping boats in Dubai. Deira has developed much since its early days with the development of both overhead and underground metro tracks, a number of shopping malls springing up (e.g., the Deira City Centre Shopping Mall[1]), and modern buildings and towers currently[when?] under construction within the area.
