This is an excellent hotel. The bad side is that it has a sewer smell that goes in and off. Staff have managed to clean, but then comes back unexpectedly. An engineering mess.

I had the pleasure of staying at the Crowne Plaza Dubai Festival City, and my experience was nothing short of exceptional. The moment I stepped into my room, I was struck by the tasteful finishings and practical design. The spacious corner office with large windows offered breathtaking views of the city, perfectly blending business and leisure. The climate control system was highly efficient, maintaining a comfortable temperature throughout my stay. I appreciated the smoke-free environment, a significant plus for health-conscious travelers like myself. The hotel's amenities and services were top-notch, catering to both business and leisure needs. From the modern fitness center to the excellent dining options, every aspect of my stay was welltaken care of. The location, connected to the Dubai Festival City Mall, offered unparalleled convenience for shopping, dining, and entertainment. What truly stood out was the exceptional service from the friendly and attentive staff. They went above and beyond to ensure my comfort and make my stay unforgettable. I highly recommend the Crowne Plaza Dubai Festival City to anyone visiting Dubai. Its perfect blend of style, comfort, and convenience makes it an ideal choice for both business travelers and leisure seekers. Rating: 5/5 stars.
