Booked last minute and a bit worried about other reviews - particularly construction around the hotel. It is scary when you first arrive but once there you really don't notice it.

Hotel is brilliant - staff superb, food excellent - BiCE is a must. Best Italian restaurant outside Italy we've been to.

Kids loved it - laready plannig next visit.

We got a taxi from the airport and arrived at the hotel just before 8am and even though check in was officially 2pm, we were able to check into our room, during the check in we were given a lovely fruit cocktail.
Our room was facing some building work (i think nearly every hotel in dubai has some form of building work nearby) but also had a sea view. There was a little bit of noise during the day but it didn't affect us at all, however about 2 hours after checking in, a member of staff arrived with a bottle of wine and glasses with a little card apologising for any noise from the building work. A few hours later somebody else arrived with a vase of red roses for the bedroom and bathroom. A few hours later we got back to the room and there was a chocolate cake with plates and cake cutter in the room and then finally when we returned in the evening there was a bowl of fruit (this also came again the next day) and a leather hilton box containing luxury stuff dates ( a delicacy over there). We also had our towels and sheets changed twice a day. We felt really spoilt getting all the little treats.
We had breakfast included in our room rate which was lovely with a great choice on offer, as we arrived early we were allowed breakfast on our arrival day as we were leaving early for our departure. We also ate at the beach bar in the evening which was great and had room service meals too, also great and great value.
Facilities were great, the hotel was very clean and well maintained.
Finally, I just wanted to say how the staff were just so welcoming, friendly and polite. I have travelled all over the world including Asia and the Caribbean and these were the best staff I have experienced.

This is the fifth time I have stayed at the Hilton Jumeirah Beach. As with every other time, it was an excellent experience.

Being a Hilton Diamond VIP, I have always been upgraded to a suite, and the suites are EXCELLENT. This is not a new hotel, but the executive rooms could be in any new-built resort. Further, the interior of the hotel is well maintained and without the scuffs and flaking that you find in older properties that are trying to squeeze every penny out of the facility. This hotel is CLEAN. Everything in the rooms works like its supposed to. Our room had its own espresso maker (bless the heart of whoever thought of that), and not some wretched tea kettle and instant coffee.

This is an extremely well-managed hotel that gets the details right and has a very well trained staff. In 5 stays the only non-positive experience was an overbearing fitness center receptionist who was less than polite in asking my wife if she was a hotel guest. I sent an email to the hotel from my room mentioning that, while I did not feel it was a serious problem, the management should be aware of it. The hotel general manager sought out my wife and apologized...certainly not necessary, but a sign of how serious the management takes guest relations.

The beach is clean and the water superb. The beach and pool staff (especialy Ly!) are attentive and friendly.

Construction: Yes there is a huge amount of construction, and since the first visit this has been prominantly proclaimed on the hotels website. The construction does not continue at night, and during the day the noise was never enough to disturb in any room we stayed in. Most of the construction will be completed by the end of the year. I found it interesting to see a city full of skyscrapers being built, and it didn't detract from swimming or lounging around at all.

The only real negative I can point to is the price has risen substantially, but even so, it is still good value for money, especially if you have a hilton VIP card, and since Hiltons reward system is the best of all the hotel chains, you definitely should. Also, unlike many Dubai hotels, getting a visa is a breeze. The hotel handles this efficiently and for a reasonable price.

Lastly, this is a great family hotel. Our children LOVE Dubai and staying at the Hilton. They constatly want to go see Theresa at the "Kindergarten" (kids play room), and the staff treats the kids great-- when our 5 year old fell asleep at the table in Pachanga at dinner, the staff scooted two chairs together and got pillows and a blanket for him to sleep while we finished our meal. Thats typical of the treatment kids get at the Jumeirah Beach Hilton.

we very much enjoyed our stay at the hilton we did have to change rooms to the pool side of the hotel which was a little less noisy lots of construction going on around the hilton and most of dubai we found it quite intersting to watch but we where aware of it before booking would not of been happy otherwise staff at hotel great rooms kept v clean ate at bice excellent pachanga ok weather v hot & lots of jelly fish in sea we were told they would sting but not dangerous so did not put us off ! thought shops were dearer than uk then we were told to try karma FAKES galore our 17 yr old daughter thought she was in heaven but haggle !would like to go back maybe in 5 yrs time when the construction might have calmed down .
