Fantastic short break!

The hotel were very accommodating as our flight arrived early morning and we couldn't check-in until 14:00. We were able to use all of the hotel facilities whilst we were waiting. This was the same on our departure, as we had a late flight. The staff were fantastic and the hotel was perfect for what we wanted. Only 10min in an Uber from the Airport and 20 minutes to Dubai Mall. Highly recommended. If you are paying for all inclusive, it's important to be aware of the limitations on times as alcohol is only served from 12pm and until 10pm, outside of this you will need to pay, but there is a discount. The pool area is fairly small, we found that if you arrive around 8-9am you'll have no issue getting a lounger. If you arrive later, there is a waiting list policy and the lifeguard will add your name and come get you when one becomes available. This is a great way to manage it and you can have a drink at the pool bar whilst you're waiting!

Beautiful hotel, great facilities and the breakfast was very good. The staff were excellent and very friendly apart from Ahmed who works on reception and was grumpy and never smiled. Not a good start to the holiday. We were a family of four and the room was small. My wife, my 15 year old son and 10 year old son had to share a bed. I slept in a bed that was brought in. The room should not be advertised for a family of four.

I had a great stay at Rotana Al Bandar. The hotel staff was very friendly, professional, and helpful. On my daughter's birthday, after a long day out, we came back to the hotel and found a beautiful birthday cake in the room from the hotel.That means a lot to us. The hotel is super clean, and the location was very convenient. No complaint.
