Park Hyatt is an upscale brand of Hyatt Hotel chain, launched to capture the upscale market of luxury travel accommodation. It has only 21 properties worldwide, but with the "High Buzz" that they have made so far, there are 10 more new properties schedule to launch within 2 years.

It was a short one night stay, and the reason why I choosed this property mainly only because it has minimalistic modern design and also I want to know whether the service that they offers can be compared with other luxury properties in the market such as Ritz Carlton, Four Seasons, Peninsula, Mandarin, etc.

Park Hyatt Dubai located in the central district, close to the city financial district. It is situated on a well famous luxury waterfront retreat - which adjacent to the world-famous Dubai Creek Golf & Yacht Club.

The check-in process was a bit slow, maybe because it was a new property , as our visit was during their pre-opening time. The agent had trouble to find our last minute booking (via AMEX Fine Hotels and Resorts booking) and had to ask the supervisor for a help.Finally, with a short waiting, they were able to locate our reservation and had our room with the waterfront view assigned as requested.

The room is wonderful with an outside terrace overlooking to the Dubai Waterfront.
It is certainly larger than a regular city room, plus it has modern decor touch. I find their bathroom is well design - especially with the egg-shape bathtub, and japanese style separate shower cabin.

In the evening, we went to their signature restaurant "The Thai Kitchen" - specialized as an authentic thai cuisine. The Restaurant ambience is calm, and has a great architectur design with an open kitchen concept. The restaurant was not very busy during our visit, and the service was above average. In contrast - regarding the food quility - I found it jut an avarage and not as best as "Paithai" at Al Qasr, Madinat Jumeirah Hotel. The Price it a bit expensive but again it is Hotel - most of them always charge above the avarage.

The pool located in the middle of the hotel, which I found a bit not attractive while it offers no view at all. On the other hand, their signature "AMARA" spa is worth to visit. I had a spa treatment there and it is comparable to other top spa in Peninsula or Four Seasons.

Despite the average impression I had from this stay, I still found that Park Hyatt Dubai is a great place to stay especially for business traveller or short term stay. I certainly will visit Park Hyatt chain again as, mainly because of its wonderful modern decor style.

Pure luxury. Lives up to its 5 star rating. Excellent service from friendly, english-speaking staff. Location is a little out of the way on the other side of the creek, but an advantage is that its extremely quiet and away from all the construction work. Hotel grounds are a bit of a maze and staying in the 4th building meant a long walk to the lobby and a bit confusing, but the beautiful gardens made up for it. Pool area is exquisite, especially at night. Food is quite expensive so we didn't eat there. Internet is also pricey - 35AED for 15mins. Views from balcony were good, although the haze of Dubai made the skyline difficult to see at times. Amara spa is great - Swedish massage was wonderful. Very pleasant all round.

We stayed here for a few days at the end of a trip and really liked this attractive hotel. The buildings and grounds are lovely, with low-rise white-washed and blue-domed buildings surrounding quiet, fountain-filled courtyards and a strong Middle-Eastern theme. There's a prettily-located swimming pool, shaded by plenty of palm trees and quite family-friendly with a lifeguard on duty til 10pm.

The rooms were very spacious and comfortable, with an open-plan style bathroom including his and hers sinks, a two-person standalone bathtub and a decent rainfall-style shower. It also had a balcony looking out over the marina. The spa was very good, too - the staff were exceptionally friendly, the treatment I had was excellent and I really enjoyed the outdoor shower!

The hotel is right next door to the enormous Deira City Centre shopping mall; about a fifteen-to-twenty minute taxi trip to the gold souq and around a twenty-five minute trip to the Burj Dubai. When we visited (July) it was unfortunately far too hot to do much outdoor sightseeing, though.

All in all we really enjoyed staying here; the hotel feels quiet and luxurious, the rooms are lovely and the hotel's setting is extremely pretty.

Stayed here for the last 4 nights of our honeymoon and I can't think of a better way we could have ended it.
The property is amazing with big, beautifully appointed rooms that look out over the marina and creek, also capturing the city in the background.
The restaurants are brilliant - we had both the best buffet lunch (Traituer) and Thai (The Thai Kitchen) of our lives, neither of which are accolades I give out lightly!
There are many other great feaures I could go on about - lovely pool area, beautifully manicured gardens and the elegant candle-lit marble hallways at night are just some of them.
To compliment the property, the service was excellent. No problems at all and we felt like royalty the entire time we were there.
To top it all off a great location close to shopping and the airport.
