Located in Burj Dubai opposite Ramada Hotel & plenty of 24hours supermarkets.
Operate a 2 (TWO) noisy club & bar on ground floor till late hours past mid night! Front desk guy by name of Aqmal had bad attitude.
Front desk guy by name of Aqmal had bad attitude. Upon arrival asked me to sit down & wait. After waiting for 10min I realized he was not anytime ready to process me a room. I walked to counter asked him what am I waiting for, only he started to fill up & allocate room for me. I insisted I do not want lower floor room & he gave me one literally right above the noisy bar. Had sleepless night whole night.
Room was simple. No hot water. Bed was stained.

location is ok, not far from new Deira city centre, receptionist was helpful.
Bathroom shower does not work properly, water leak all over. Breakfast is not good, at 9am, nothing left and no refill.
Hotel room is ok, clean enough and comfortable enough to sleep. But the bathoom is not, very narrow and the shower does not work properly. Staff is good, but the equipment for staff not always in working condition, the fax and copy did not work so they hold my passport for 2 days. Receptionist is friendly and helpful. Breakfast is not good, no refill of empty trays.
Shopping Tip : Deira City Center is only about 1 mile away, and the mall gives free shuttle rides.

the cafe in the first floor
the bedsheets were dirty, the bar was always crowded with indians, the service was slow
location of the hotel is great, shopping mall is just across the street. For the 2 stars and the price, things were ok, sadly the bedsheets were dirty and the reaction of the staff to requests have been slow but for the price I think you can't expect more.

location and price are good, south-asian oriented breakfast buffet adequate. staff is helpful when they are not harried
hotel does not have wifi (although there is an internet terminal in the lobby), structure is not new but is maintained reasonably well
this is a decent budget hotel in deira. although the structure is not new, it is maintained reasonably well. when they are not too harried, staff is helpful. the south-asian-oriented breakfast buffet is adequate, but sometimes runs low after 9AM. the nightclub and bar on the ground floor can get a bit noisy at night. hotel does not have wifi.
Hotel Feature Tip : if you are adept at the bus system, there are a number of options very near the hotel.

Economic hotel and near big shopping mall Algurir Center.
Economic hotel and near big shopping mall Algurir Center but we face a problem with taxi booking and even in the same street
its very near to Dubai international airport and they can arrange tour. The taxi driver Fazal Paxitan name is so polite and can arrange a tour around Dubai with 70 DRH per hour.

1. Locational advantage with easy access to shopping Malls, Gold Souks and Creek.
2. Good value of money yet fair enough for budget travellers
3. Rooms are spacious and bathroom and restaurant are recently refurbished.
4. Probably best hotel for stay during transit in its category.
1. The reception can be quite noisy at night due to couple of discotheques
2. May not a best hotel for family and holiday seeker
My short stay in Panorama Deira was a pleasant one. However, just after Ramadan, hotel became very noisy with couple of discotheques on the ground floor. Hotel is spacious, clean, with basic amenities and good for budget traveler for a short stay.
Travel tip : I had trouble getting taxi on way back to airport. Finally I booked hotel vehicle for transfer to airport. So, plan accordingly for transfer and try to depart for the airport early.

The best features of the hotel are the staff. They are nice and accommodating.
The hotel's weakness is the cleanliness. Although the hotel itself is clean, but the beddings used inside the room is not up to the expectations of the guests.
In general, since the hotel is only a 2 star hotel, everything is fair enough, from the daily charges, room services, staff accommodation down to the parking accessibility. Actually, I have made another booking at the same hotel and am returning during the Eid Holidays. And did some recommendations to some of my friends to use and book the same hotel due to it's reasonable charges. and take note, the breakfast is included in the charges!! Congratulations and keep up the good work!!
Travel tip : The location of this hotel is very accessible to everything, be it a restaurant, malls for your shopping spree and nightlife.

Spacious room with good TV channel line up. Closer to bus stop, lots resturants around and closer to Al Gurair mall
House keeping is not of high quality
Good to stay when you are at work.

Room provided was close to hotel night club so noisy. When asked to change they provided me in a smoking area. They kept using my car to block their parking which was a shame.
Shopping Tip : Should visit Algarir Centre.

An aged hotel, but the room was comfortable and clean, only the noise from the nightclub was a putting off factor for me.
Nightlife Tip : Indian night club at the hotel.
