I had a mixed experience at Novotel Dubai Al Barsha. While the location is fantastic and the restaurant staff, especially Harriet, provided excellent service, I encountered some issues with my room. Upgrading to the Executive Suite definitely improved my stay, but I was disappointed by the initial room's condition and amenities. Overall, there's plenty of potential for a great stay here.

My week at Novotel Dubai Al Barsha was a mixed experience. The staff, especially those in the cafeteria, were exceptionally polite and attentive, making me feel at home. However, I faced issues with my room being smaller than expected and the dining options were somewhat limited. While the location was advantageous, providing easy access to key attractions, there were some shortcomings in terms of the room features and dining variety.

My stay at Novotel Dubai Al Barsha had both highlights and low points. The staff provided excellent service, and I was particularly impressed by their honesty when they returned my lost wallet. However, the room lacked some basic amenities and was quite dated, which detracted from the overall experience. ⚠️
Rooms

The room was spacious and clean, but it felt dated with some old furniture and a few maintenance issues. The bed was uncomfortable due to foam cushions that did not serve well as pillows. Additionally, the lack of a proper hairdryer was inconvenient.

The hotel is perfectly located near the metro, making it easy to get around Dubai. It's close to the Mall of the Emirates, which added to the convenience of exploring the city. However, access by car can be frustrating due to the one-way system during busy hours.

Dining experience could use improvement; the food variety was limited and of poor quality, with some requests being denied. Breakfast was repetitive, which was disappointing and didn't meet my expectations.

I recently stayed at Novotel Dubai Al Barsha for a quick getaway, and while I enjoyed the excellent breakfast and the spacious room, there were a few hiccups with the service and some room issues that detracted from my overall experience. The view from my room was impressive, especially with Burj Al Arab in sight, but the initial check-in was a bit bumpy. Still, it's a great spot for families and those looking to be near major attractions.
