The hotel

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.

Ok we’re to start. It’s a beautiful place for adults. For children. The Atlantis the palm is better. In the royal you only have use of one pool and the beach for kids. My daughter swims at a high level and was only allowed to use the lap pool once. And we was told we cannot use it again. Because she was under 12. Cloud 22 looks amazing.… Read more
Ok we’re to start. It’s a beautiful place for adults. For children. The Atlantis the palm is better. In the royal you only have use of one pool and the beach for kids. My daughter swims at a high level and was only allowed to use the lap pool once. And we was told we cannot use it again. Because she was under 12. Cloud 22 looks amazing. Again kids is a no go. We had the longest access. And to be honest. It was poor. The Atlantis the palm was a million times better. I’m comparing the palm to the royal. Having done both. For children the palm wins. The royal is for celebrities and insta models. The palm is for families. Kids club was not as good as the palm. As it’s still being built. Majority of the restraints are dark and a bit seedy. My daughter did like hestons. Linling was not that good. Same black Restraunt s. The gym was small. And always full. Waiting for people to get of a machine to use it. They do provide refreshments and good drinks. But you need a gym that works. This for me didn’t. Read less

Thank you for an absolutely incredible stay at Atlantis. The hotel is by far the best I have ever experienced — everything from the service and atmosphere to the interior design exceeded even the highest expectations. We were once again greeted by Suren as we stepped out of the car, and even though this was only our second stay, he immediately recognized us and welcomed us back — an unbelievable level of attention and service I’ve never encountered anywhere else in the world. I would also like to thank the Housekeeping team and Ansanka for surprising my son Alexander with the most amazing treats and a picture of Ronaldo. He was truly touched by your thoughtfulness. We are so grateful for the warm hospitality we always experience at Atlantis, and we will definitely be back very soon. Read less
