We had an excellent stay at Double Tree. We had a studio apartment, it was a comfortable size for two of us.
Having the luxury of a kitchen and washer/dryer was appreciated. I would have liked to have instructions for the washer/dryer because I never used one of those combo units. It took some figuring out.
Location is perfect. Walking distance from Mall of the Emirates, a pharmacy, a clinic, a supermarket and several restaurants and shopping areas.
Taxis were easily had in front of the hotel or around the corner.
The gym was well equipped as far hotel gyms go.
The restaurant food was tasty and price was typical of that hotel chain. The restaurant staff was efficient and helpful.
The front staff was polite, professional, warm and very helpful.
I got food poisoning two days into my stay ( not from the hotel) and became badly dehydrated, and the front staff was good enough to tell my husband about a clinic right around the corner. Kudos to the clinic too.
Our room was clean and well maintained on a daily basis.
I would recommend staying here.
