After a recent spate of openings, you have to wonder if Perth has
room for another five-star hotel. It doesn't take long to realise, however,
that the MARRIOTT AL JADDAF has several things going in its favour. The first
is its convenient location in downtown Dubai.. The second is a determination to
deviate from the classic corporate vibe.
THE SPACE
Hotel lobbies can be grand or welcoming. The MARRIOTT AL JADDAF
somehow manages to be both. It has the soaring ceilings, but its dimensions
have an inviting feel. As with the rest of the hotel, large amounts of natural
light.
This 5-star hotel offers an ideal mix of modern conveniences and
luxurious finishes, and encompasses seven diverse restaurants ensuring that the
dining options cater for all tastes, a luxurious spa with an innovative
treatment menu
THE ROOM
I have been assigned a 1 bedroom, the entry-level suite. it is
bigger than the top suites in some other hotels. The lounge and dining areas are
well separated from the bedroom, perfect for those times when one of you wants
to sleep while the other feels like working or watching TV.
The bed is equipped
with pillows of three different densities, allowing you to choose the one that
works for you. Other nice touches include blinds that rise when you enter the
room.
THE FOOD
The hotel has catered
for all tastes with its extensive dining options. Restaurants include the widely-acclaimed Scot’s
American Grill & Steakhouse which combines the tradition of an authentic Scottish
menu with a contemporary American influence; the international buffet
restaurant The Market Place, serves a wide variety of exceptional dishes offering
an array of eclectic dishes with tastes from around the world;
Aqua Chill is the
ultimate spot for poolside relaxation and al fresco dining in Dubai to truly
relax but it also has a breathtaking view of the city skyline; The Lobby Lounge
is a relaxing space to enjoy a light meal or great cup of freshly ground coffee
throughout the day; the stylish social bar Shanghai 30 is an ideal meeting
venue for after work drinks and to socialize along with the local community
regulars who know this as a welcoming and vibrant evening location.
For those seeking rest
and relaxation after business meetings or a busy day of sight-seeing, the Saray
Spa is a true escape from the hustle and bustle of Dubai. The treatment menu caters
to both men and women (with separate entrances, treatment rooms and changing
facilities). Try the Signature Healing Massage,
or the Arabic Coffee Awakener. For weary
travelers the bespoke Jet-Lag Massage, is an essential upon arrival to revive
after long-haul travel to ensure you enjoy Dubai to its fullest whether visiting
for business or pleasure. Marriott Al Jaddaf’s gym facilities offer
invigorating fitness experiences, and feature brand new gym equipment, a studio
area for group classes and access to the leisure pool. Visitors can acquire an
annual, half-yearly, 3-month or monthly membership and avail benefits including
guest vouchers for day use of the pool, gym and spa, personal training sessions
with a trainer, 25% discount on room rates at the hotel, 40% discount on spa
treatments and more.
The hotel is ideally located in Dubai for both business and
leisure travelers and its proximity and ease of access to the financial
district as well as Dubai’s many beaches makes it business friendly as well as
ideally suited to family stays. The hotel has a number of well-equipped meeting
rooms which can cater to small meetings
as well as large scale conferences.
Dubai is often the hub of Middle Eastern conferences for businesses
across the GCC and the Marriott Al Jaddaf provides the accommodation and
conference facilities for this specialist service. The hotel provides seasoned event planners to
assist guests arrange successful business conferences, meetings and beautiful
destination weddings.
The Al Jaddaf location offers unrivalled scenic views of the famous
Dubai city architecture and landscape, the business district of the Sheikh
Zayed Road, Business Bay and iconic landmarks such as the Burj Khalifa, the
world’s tallest building. Marriott Al
Jaddaf is a very convenient 15 minutes from each of these locations including
Dubai International Airport which makes it conducive for business and leisure
guests. A magnificent view of the desert
sunrise and sunset are also a highlight of a stay at this prestigious hotel
location.
