Atlantis The Royal

Dubai Beach, Dubai

Star rating

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.

I recently stayed at this hotel and overall had a very pleasant experience. What truly stood out was the professionalism, friendliness, and genuine hospitality of the front office team. A special mention goes to Beshoy, whose leadership was evident throughout our stay. He managed to make us feel welcomed, valued, and well taken care of. The overall atmosphere met expectations and contributed to an enjoyable stay. The only areas where I believe there is room for improvement are: The RMU ( controlling the lights in the room) needs some upgrade to match the Royal standard expected, and the CARBONE restaurant management. ( run my a third party). Unlike the outstanding hospitality in Milos, carbone staff were not up to that standard. Better alignment with the hotel's service culture would further enhance the overall guest experience. Thank you to Beshoy, Marwan in the front office team and Ahmed in Milos for making our stay memorable. Their dedication and hospitality are a credit to the hotel. Read less

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Without a doubt, the best hotel we’ve ever stayed at. The facilities are incredible, the dining options are outstanding, and every detail feels thoughtfully designed to create a truly exceptional experience. The highlight for our family is the kids’ club, which is hands down the best we’ve ever experienced. The team takes phenomenal care of the children, with engaging activities, endless entertainment, and a level of warmth and attention that is rare to find. Our kids run there every day and genuinely hate leaving when it’s time to go home. Despite spending multiple days there, they never get bored; there is always something new and exciting happening. The staff throughout the hotel are exceptional, consistently going above and beyond to make every stay memorable. The service, atmosphere, and overall experience are second to none. Atlantis The Royal is one of those places we simply never tire of visiting. It remains our first choice for a family staycation, and we highly recommend it to anyone looking for a truly world-class hotel experience. Best hotel ever. Read less
