Great value with great location”

Originally I had some fear after reading some not so positive review about the Ramada but after getting there and being greeted by the staff and the management at reception with a welcome drink I was pleased. When we got up to the room (junior suite), we were very happy that we made the decision to choose the Ramada. The view of the Dubai fountain and the Burj Khalifa was tremendous. We also quickly learned that we can walk to the Dubai Mall which was right in front of us, across the water of the fountain. It was a very nice area to walk around on the boardwalk and surrounded by the water of the fountain. The service of the Ramada was very pleasant, and attentive. The general manager (Saif from Rwanda) asked to make sure we were taken care of, from the time we entered, to the time we exited. We would definitely come back to this hotel the next time we are in Dubai, if prices don't go up exhorbitantly of course.

Centrally Located in Downtown Dubai”

We loved the location of Ramada Downtown - walking distance to Burj Khalifa & Mall of Dubai. Right adjacent to a Spineys and a Boots. The 1 bedroom suite was spacious with a decent room, lounge and a small kitchenette (had a dish washer, microwave oven, stove, fridge and even a washing machine) Staff was friendly - we were booked into the city view which was boring, and i think the Burj Khalifa view room would have been the icing on the cake. Friendly staff and we felt that Ramada Downtown Dubai was value for the money we payed. Internet was only allowed on one device and additional devices you would need to pay a hefty fine. The system that monitored the internet connection was a pain, it would occasionally log you out and each time there would be a need to sign-in again -but when you wanted to swtich devices, (logout from one and go to the next) it would take an eternity - which the speed was also nothing to be proud off, we ended up not using the internet, considering it would be a cheap upgrade to unlimited faster internet, this can be a turn off for many travellers who are dependent on the internet for many day-to-day things - Speed poor, additional connections (i think it was 100AED / day)

Ramada done the Arab way”

One doesn't often place Ramada in the same category of other big hotel names, but the Ramada Downtown Dubai holds it own very well. These are beautiful one bedroom apartments (quite big) with full kitchen and the servicing of a hotel - the concept of apart-hotel. Location-wise it is in the ideal area near Mall of Dubai and Souq Al-Bahar. This is the new downtown area with many lovely apartment buildings and likely being transformed into the next entertainment (restaurant and bars) district of Dubai. Breakfast at the hotel is good - enough variety to let you start your day. There is a shared pool and gym with another apartment building next door. The staff strives to ensure you are looked after. Definitely a part of my preferred locations to stay in for future visits.

Best part of our stay”

Located in Downtown Dubai, the Ramada Suites were fantastic! Restaurants are expensive in Dubai, so it was great having a fully fitted kitchen with a washing machine & dishwasher. They also provided us with tea & coffee daily as well as shampoos etc. In addition, they provided us with toothbrushes, sewing kit & a razor (great for the forgetful traveler!) The view from our room was phenomenal! It overlooked the musical fountains, and was right opposite the Burj Khalifa. The hotel offers a free shuffle to the Dubai Mall, but not frequently enough. However, it is a pleasant 10 minute walk, if you don't mind the scorching sun! They did say you had to catch a taxi if you wanted to get to the Emirates Mall (about 30 Dirhams) but you can catch a train from the Dubai Mall for 6.50pp. I rate this hotel 4 out of 5 stars, and the only reason I would have given 4 and not 5, is because the shuttles do not run frequently enough (there is only 1 shuttle to Jumeirah Beach @ 1pm - who would want to go to the beach in the midday heat is beyond me!) but you need to find your own way back home. It would have been nice to have a shuttle to the Burj Al Arab & Atlantis (even for a nominal fee). Otherwise a great hotel, and probably the nicest thing about our trip. (PS : The dining got 3 - working on an average because we actually didn't eat at the hotel restaurant)

Excellent Juniosr Suite with View”

First I like to thank the house Keeping staff of the Ramada Downtown Dubai on my check out date when I forget My I Phone and charger in the room and when I cam back after 1 hour they handover my items in good condition so I was on time for my flight early Morning. Second I enjoy my stay in The Junior Suite very much there I had great view to the Tower and Water fountain show (every hour from 6.30 PM for 15 minutes and after I walk in 15 minutes to the tower and the `dubai Mall ' all close by and many things to see. Extra compliment for the great Breakfast Buffet with Salmon on Toast and much more for the reasonable price of 75 Dirham.

excellent value for central position”

We stayed 5 nights in the Ramada Downtown because of its position. Our son lives 2 minutes walk away and his flat is too small for us to fit comfortably so the hotel was a great option. The position in Downtown is very good, being adjacent to the lake close to the Opera House park and an easy 10 minute pleasant walk to Dubai Mall - OK even in summer after about 4pm. There is a very pleasant pool and a small children's play room which was great to entertain our small granddaughter. The basic rooms are very spacious, having a large living area, well equiped kitchen area (with dishwasher and washing machine!) and large separate bedroom with very comfortable bed. All was very clean and quiet (we were on 22nd floor). We have recommended the Ramada for other family members staying.

Sensational”

Amazing. The staff were exceptionally helpful and kind, the service was A1, restaurant meals were excellent, the room was breathtaking, clean, comfortable. The location was perfect. Could not recommend this hotel highly enough. My stay was a highlight of my 2 month holiday and the 20 other hotels/motels I stayed in did not even come close to this hotel. Special mention to Lauren (on reception) and Samoi (hope I got the spelling correct, in the restaurant). They exceeded my expectations and made me feel very welcome. Thank you Ramada Downtown Dubai .. you are excellent in what you do.

Perfect View, Great Location, Clean Room”

The hotel is in the perfect location for my mum and I as it is in the safe area and close to everything. And I have to say that the price is reasonable and it is worth every cent. We booked the room with Burj Khalifa and Fountain view. We loved it! And we would recommend that you must book this room! We loved how we just sit in the room at night having dinner and watching the dancing fountain, no fuss and no crowds. We are also happy with everything else. It's in walking distance to Burj Khalifa, Dubai Mall, Big Bus station, and Souk Al Bahar. The staff are friendly and always happy to help. We really enjoyed our stay here in Ramada Downtown.

Ramada Downtown great for viewing fountain”

My mother and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Ramada Downtown Dubai. As Mum had special requirements, I emailed the hotel directly with my requests. All of these were met on our arrival, together with an unexpected room upgrade. Our reason for staying at this hotel was to view the Fountain Light & Sound Show and we could not have been given a better room. If I had a complaint, it is only a very minor one. The hotels windows are obviously locked down for security and are also double glazed..this means it is almost impossible to hear the music that accompany the lights. Not sure if they could do a video / audio tv feed to put it through to rooms of those who watch?? Other than that, our two night stay was fantastic. We had room service for nearly all our meals and they were exemplary. The front office staff were more than accommodating of any request. I have no hesitation in recommending this hotel.

Great Views!!!”

Ramada Downtown Dubai Deluxe Suites is just located next to World's Renown Burj Karlifa!!!!! you must request for high floor!!!! because you can have a great great view of the Famous Fountain Show next to Dubai Mall. its a amazing view you can get from your hotel room. anyway, back to the hotel, it is located around a new development. everything around the hotel is newly built. hotel staffs are friendly too. rooms are huge because it's concept around suite style. thanks to agoda!!!

Exceptional”

The staff are so attentive. They assisted with tours and ensured that we were picked up on time. They printed out my boarding passes for our return home. The hotel also has a shuttle service to the Dubai Mall and Jumeriah beach which we used. The area is lovely and you can see the fountains and the Burj Khalifa from the hotel. When I return to Dubai I will definitely be staying at the Ramada Downtown.

Awesome Dubai Fountain View”

My husband and I have been to Dubai a few times now and stayed in other hotels in the area, the location of the Ramada was perfect for us. My favourite thing to see in Dubai is the fountain and we had the best view of that and the Burj Kalifa. The hotel has a Spinnies supermarket next door and many dining options at it doorstep. It was a very easy 15min walk to Dubai Mall Which has everything you could ever want in a Mall and more. I would definitely recommend the Ramada if visiting Dubai.

Something to come back to”

Stayed here the second time and once again felt extremely well. The staff are very friendly, which makes a big difference for me. The rooms are very spacious with a kitchen and refrigerator. Large and comfortable beds. flatscreen TV and desk. Iron/ironing board in the room. spacious bathroom with shower and bathtub (separated). I was "upgraded" to a lake view, which was nice. It was a low floor though, but i could still see a bit of the fountain show and the Burj Khalifa. Breakfast has a good selection of cold cuts, egg cooking station and other warm dishes. It was November and the weather was not too hot, so i had breakfast on the terrace, which was nice. The area is great for running although being right in the middle of downtown. I went for morning runs (before sunrise) and it was a perfect addition to the gym. The gym is a bit hard to find and complicated to get to. First you need to get a key card for the gate on the terrace of the second floor (you'll get that card in the breakfast room). The gym is in the other (residential) tower. Once you're there there is no clear indication of where the gym is. By luck I noticed that I have to take the elevator down one floor and then turn right coming out of the elevator. This could be a little bit more user-friendly. The gym is fairly-well equipped with different workout machines, running machines and free weights. I also saw personal trainers there. I also love the location of this hotel, which is a stone-throw away from numerous restaurants (e.g. in the souk) and of course Dubai Mall, which is massive. Will definitely come back here next time I am in Dubai.

Perfect introduction to Dubai”

We had a fantastic stay at the Ramada, we arrived at the hotel at 6am (far in advance of the usual 3pm check-in time) and askred the concierge if we could leave our bags in the lobby and in the mean time just relax by the pool. The concierge offered us a room straight away and even gave us a free upgrade. The view of the Dubai Mall Fountains was amazing and the location of the hotel is a very easy walk over to the Dubai Mall, Souk Al Bahaar, The fountains and Burj Khalifa.

Fantastic location, great value for money!”

From the front desk all the way to room service, the staff is extremely friendly and courteous. Huge thanks to Mr. Muqadar, who made it truly special for us by upgrading our room to floor 23.. overall I'm super pleased with the management, the rooms and the premium location, and would definitely recommend Ramada to any one planing to stay in the Downtown area for a fraction of a price the neighboring hotels are asking for!

Choose room carefully if you want good view”

Not all rooms have view of Dubai fountain and Burj khalifa. Important to us so worth the extra $. Very easy walk to dubai mall. Need pram if real little ones. Had early flight arrived hotel 7am and was prepared to leave bags until afternoon checkin. But they had a room ready for us by 8am. Thank you Ramada for that. Made a big difference with the little ones are 5 and 2

The perfect place for Business and Pleasure”

Its my 10th stay at the Ramada Downtown hotel. I recommend it to business travelers who also wants to have easy access to the fun places in Dubai. The staff is amazing ... and their kindness will make your day everyday... Special mention to the Valet and the room attendant

Lovely hotel ”

The Ramada Downtown Burj Dubai boasts of a location like no other. Guests can experience the best of Business, Leisure, Entertainment in one of Dubai's most vibrant district's. The hotel is conveniently located providing easy access to various parts of the city and the Dubai International Airport. The Hotel provides a free shuttle service to Jumeirah Beach Park, Burjuman Shopping Mall and the Metro. Dubai Mall, the world's biggest shopping mall is located within walking distance. There are also a number of restaurants and super markets located in surrounding area.

The right hotel!”

From the arrival to the check out the hotel was ideal for us. The location for what we wanted to do was perfect and being where it was is pretty central to where the action is. We had a city view, yet we got some view of the Dubai fountain from our room which is a breathtaking show. The hotel itself was in good condition and the staff were all helpful to all our needs in particular the hotel manager Mr Khan. This guy was everywhere and made us feel like home! Mr Khan paid attention to our kids and their needs. overall our 3 night stay was a very comfortable stopover coming back from Italy towards Australia. the hotel runs a shuttle service to the Dubai mall which runs a few times during the day and also to other parts of Dubai. We found this very useful. the mall is where the aquarium is and everything you need to see in regards to retail. We would recommend this hotel to everyone and will definitely stay in this hotel when stopping in Dubai. This is what hospitality should be!!

Great Location and Large room”

Ramada Downtown is located in the center of Dubai where major shopping malls are located, thus very convenient. The room is large and comfortable. It has facilities for cooking, washing and relaxation, like living in your own house!
