Conveniently located in the Business Bay area..just 7 mins taxi to the Dubai mall and Burj Kalifa. Citymax Business Bay offers great value for a very comfortable stay. Rooms are quiet with comfortable beds. Full breakfast offerings and very helpful staff. Onsite offers Sports bar, Asian restaurant, and 24hr coffee and snack area on ground floor. Rooftop pool...what else do you need? Great value stay.

We booked a standard double bed room and there was an issue with our bathroom. We spoke with the reception, they were very helpful. They apologised for the invonvinence and gone beyond and over and upgraded our room to a huge family suite. The staff and management were very friendly, breakfast buffet was very good for the price as well.

The hotel is Amazing A brand new hotel with Great location near to the Dubai Mall, Dubai airport not far from Fold Souk !! My wife and i spent almost 7 days there we felt like we were home because of the helpful and friendly staff. The service is outstanding. I appreciate the level of cleanliness and hygiene on this Covid 19 period. The breakfast buffet was delicious with so many choices Ahad was so nice always taking care of us like everybody there. We also enjoyed the pool. Karim from the reception help a lot. We will definitely come back.

The management is rude Saniyah Shaikh. I called and she had terrible listening skills and when asked a question instead of answering she asked another question. The feont desk staff rude. I pay tourism fee by credit card. Even after the see a booking..the will harass over and over for 30 dirham fee as if im running away when im staying here. The front desk Egyptian guy. Constantly harassing for tourism fee even after it was paid. These people have no customer service skill. Im not sure of they are just rude or racist. Either way. I wont be back.

Dear Santish, I just wanted to provide some feedback on my recent stay at CityMax Business Bay. Overall, I had a great experience at the hotel, with comfortable accommodations and friendly staff. However, I do have a small suggestion for improvement. As a British customer who enjoys a traditional cup of tea, I was disappointed to see that the room only had powdered milk available. Many British tea drinkers prefer to use fresh milk in their tea, as it provides a richer and creamier taste. I would recommend providing small cartons of fresh milk in the rooms for guests who prefer this option. I did, of course, ask for non powdered milk on no less than 3 occasions to 3 different people and they all said politely that it was not possible for me to have any. I hope you will consider this feedback for future guests, as it would greatly enhance the tea-drinking experience for British customers staying at CityMax Business Bay. Thank you for your attention to this matter.
