Surprisingly great.

Despite to the reviews I read, I hesitently decided to take a chance and stay here. Surised to find a lovely lobby and delightful checkin. My entire5 night stay was extremely comfortable. The staff amazing and professional. True, the hotel needs some refurbishment but that's mostly surface issues rather than deep problems. They have already started the improvements. In my room, I did not hear a peep from any of the lounges or clubs. Yes, I would certainly stay at the Leela Hotel again.

Will not stay here again

I will not stay here again. There was some false advertising about the location and its closeness to Gold Souk and they also held my passport for 8$ dollars and made me forget it at the check outtime, so i had come back from the airport to get it from them

Shower leaks under the shower door, so bathroom floor is flooded after a shower. Bathroom smells of pee Woke up to find there was no water on the 27th of May 23, call reception they advise it was not coming back on till 2pm and offer a bucket of water to wash in. Bathroom light does not switch off, says on 24 hours a day, raised issue and was advise it is supposed to be like that, which is strange as there is a switch to turn it off. There was only one 1 towel in the room when we checked in, had to call to ask for more, the towels had seen better days, they were worn and fit for the bin. Went to use the swimming pool, took one look at it and turned back. The surrounding area around the pool was not clean, and it looked like It is under construction, very dusty.

Whatever we saw in the website it's not the same. Environment is not good for family. Room was very dirty and unhygienic. Washroom was also terrible. If you take the shower water goes all over the floor inside and outside. I complain to the reception but they had no reaction and it's normal for them. We came late night to the hotel from Airport but next day we left. I don't recommend this hotel specially with family.

Good hotel, if you can overlook some minor things

Nice hotel, clean and comfortable with some dated elements. Some room refurbishments have been done, but lacking in quality and finish (bath taps loose in wall, paint on bathroom tiles, lose joins in lament floor). Would stay again
