We stayed at the Al Manzil hotel as part of a two-centre holiday to the Maldives and Dubai. We spent 4 days here and really enjoyed our stay, although we didn't spend much time at the hotel itself.

First off, the hotel is in the new area of "Downtown Burj Dubai". This is really hard to find on a map, cos it's so new and generally most of it is still under construction. It's near the World Trade Centre and Emirates Towers area of the city. Location wise, the hotel is well situated for a few days break in Dubai, as it is within a short taxi ride of all the major malls, beaches, sightseeing tours etc. (taxis are really cheap in Dubai). However, if you want to spend a lot of time at the beach, you'd be better off booking a hotel at the beach itself!

The hotel itself is great. Good room, good food, great staff and we really enjoyed our stay. We didn't have time to use the pool, but it looked nice. The hotel is really geared mostly towards business travellers, but was fine for tourists.

Still new and clean.... not worn out like some of the others... modern and arabic mixed together in lovely way. Bathtub in the middle of the room! Great food at the restaurants.... loved every minute of the stay. Friendliest staff of any hotel.... will bend over backwards for you.

We just returned from a trip to Dubai and stayed at the Al Manzil.
Everything about this hotel is perfect.
The rooms are well equiped and comfortable.Added touches like a beautiful stationary box and easy access keys make this a Deluxe experience.
The breakfast buffet was very nice and the staff were the nicest of any hotel I have stayed in.
Concierge service was excellent as was the Housekeeping services.
We ar independent travel agents and would definetly recommend this hotel

I stayed for five days in this wonderful hotel and enjoyed every minute of it. A very nice hotel with great staff and beautiful rooms. Also, the restaurant is very good and offers a high quality range of Middle Eastern food. The outdoor pool area is perfect and the hotel is centrally located in Old Town behind the Burj Dubai. There is a lot of building construction going on around the hotel, but it never really bothered us. A highly recommended hotel for those, who want to enjoy a couple of days in luxury with out having to take out a mortgage for it. By the way: Make sure and book your room online, which is half price compared to directly through the hotel.
