The hotel

There’s something seriously slick about Media One Hotel. It’s like they read all the guides to creating the ultimate urban retreat: find a tip-top location (this one’s in the heart of New Dubai), add another mirrored masterpiece to Dubai’s famed skyline, fill it with cosmopolitan city break essentials (Gym? Tick. Dining? Tick. Nightlife? Tick.) and zhoosh it up with accessories straight from a celebrity designer’s moodboard. Like a constant reminder of its cooler-than-cool location, your guest room looks out over the Arabian Gulf, Palm Jumeirah, or glittering Dubai skyline. And, for more eye-popping views, the tower’s dining and drinking hubs include Garden on 8, with on-trend refectory tables and big-screen TVs, and Coco Lounge, a ‘bar-meets-lounge-meets-pool’ set up, where you can slink from your swim to a poolside sofa for skyline views, cocktails, and chillout beats.

Fanatastic stay in media one. The hotel has good facilities, include sauna, steam swim pool gym Frankly, room is nothing, but just nice for short stay. Breakfast is simple but sufficiently good Lastly, it is wonderful to meet Baiana at the front desk, very friendly and talented (in language ) with 💯 positive attitude girl 👍

This hotel felt like home away from home. Honestly from the very first interaction and all the staff was more than perfect. Mina made sure i had everything when I first checked in and everyone truly exceeded my expectations. Did not want to leave. Hameed also made sure that everything went smoothly as I was going home.

Everything about Media One is welcoming, inviting and they have their own special way of doing things, that make you feel right at home. Ive been staying with them for years... and every time is just great, even when there's something off, they immediately take corrective action. Thank you for Media One.
