The new iconic landmark in Dubai is here, and it’s unlike any other hotel you’ve seen before. If you thought Atlantis, The Palm was impressive (and we agree it is!), then this addition to the Atlantis portfolio will redefine your perspective of luxury and innovation. Atlantis The Royal is where impossible becomes possible, and luxury mixes with experience, challenging the boundaries of imagination. It’s all about space, natural sunlight and feeling like you can quite literally reach the clouds. Speaking of clouds, Cloud 22 brings you a rooftop pool club that’s on another level, literally! Book a private cabana with your own plunge pool, and enjoy an exquisite cocktail with even better views as the sun moves across the horizon and the music goes up a notch.
The alluring design of the hotel ensures complete privacy in all room types, 44 of which are available with private infinity pools. On arrival, the magnificent lobby is designed around the 4 natural elements, as you’re welcomed by Droplets, the towering lobby sculpture inspired by the first drop of rain in the desert. And whilst the hotel is full of striking features, bespoke artwork, and large aquariums, it’s the little touches that will also take your breath away. Your bed will be separated from the bathroom by a glass wall that frosts over at a single touch. From your balcony the views across The Palm and Dubai’s skyline are exquisite, but ultimately you won’t need to venture that far with the endless lists of fun, food and frolics on offer here! 17 restaurants each tell their own story, AWAKEN Wellness will have you revitalised in no time, and the nightlife will have you dancing until the early hours. From fountain shows to fire shows, one of the largest jellyfish tanks you’ll ever see, and waterslides galore, Atlantis The Royal is the place where something incredible happens at every minute.

A majestic hotel paired with warm and lovely staff made for a truly special stay. My husband surprised me with a room upgrade, which was absolutely fabulous and included access to the Royal Club Lounge, an exceptional experience in itself.
The suite was spacious and beautifully designed. However, I would have preferred if the bathtub faced the sea rather than being tucked away inside the bathroom.
Honestly, the hotel offers everything you could possibly need, you wouldn’t even want to leave. From the comfort of the rooms to the quality of amenities, it’s the kind of place that invites you to simply relax and enjoy.
Room service was a bit slow at times, but the dry cleaning service was excellent, fast, professional, and perfectly done.

Always an essential part of staying at Atlantis The Royal and conveniently locating adjacent to Nobu On The Beach!
Service is excellent by all team members and big thanks and a deserved shout out to Ahmed Mohir on this occasion.. what a lovely, personable and sincerely funny guy, we will miss him getting the undertones to more champagne (when really we were saying we shouldn’t have anymore) and of course to Jenny, who we remembered from last year when we celebrated our 25th Anniversary with our children and when she learned it was now our 26th, gave us a beautiful bunch of flowers and some gifts x
Much better location for speedy and personalised service than the hustle & bustle of Gastronomy (with higher quality Advocado on Toast, nice sandwiches at afternoon tea and an impressive selection of cocktails and other beverages on tap!
Great job everybody and look forward to seeing you again in the near future.

Beautiful hotel! We stayed in a palm view king room with royal club access. The room was spacious and so comfortable, we had a stunning view of the fountain display.

Beautiful hotel! We stayed in a palm view king room with royal club access. The room was spacious and so comfortable, we had a stunning view of the fountain display. The club access is really worth every penny, bottomless glasses of Moet and really any drink you can name. Ahmed Monir was particularly helpful as our server in the royal club and kept us always topped up. He was most helpful and polite! The food at afternoon and evening was plentiful, varied and delicious. All in all, we can't wait to return!
