Stylish and trendy the Aloft Diera City Centre hotel at Dubai Creek is one of the best Aloft hotels in Dubai!
Aloft Dubai Creek Review – Commentary
The Aloft City Centre Diera (which got renamed to Aloft Dubai Creek in 2021) is attached to the mall of the same name with access ways built into the hotel. It is super quick to reach the airport – just 10 minute drive. Likewise to reach the Dubai mall or other areas around Downtown Dubai would take just 10 minute in the opposite direction as well.
The lobby of the hotel is located on the 2nd floor with large lounge space as well as their all day dining restaurant on the right of the landing. We were upgraded to the Savvy room which is slightly larger than the standard rooms. When you enter the rooms you have the bathroom and closet on the left.
The bathrooms are minimalist and well designed with ample storage space.
There are of course the standard Aloft Bliss bathroom amenities such as the soap and body lotion.
The shampoo and body wash are in containers fixed into the bath and shower. Note that not all savvy rooms have a bath some have a walk in shower so depends on which room you get and you might want to request ahead of time if you have a preference.
Continuing to the main room it follows the clean and minimalist approach. There were two bottles of water complimentary as well as a sanity kit as we checked in during Covid.
The sanity or hygiene kit offered at the Aloft is thoughtful and it seems each Marriott property is given discretion to decide how they approach amenities as this is the first property we stayed that gave gloves and a face mask.
The room from another angle shows this particular room has a connecting door for families or those who need more space.
The pool and common areas of the hotel were generally of very high specification. Much more so than one would expect for an Aloft hotel. In general it felt small but high quality. The gym pictured below had a particularly cool vibe.
Since we checked in the evening was not able to take a shot of the view – however in the morning it was very impressive with skyline of Dubai in the background, creek and golf course.
The breakfast at the restaurant The Canteen (full review here) is all things considered, very high quality, for the standard of the hotel. Typically Aloft hotels have a basic breakfast offering, but the Aloft Dubai Creek hotel provides not only high quality ingredients and a full range of hot and cold options a staff and team that cares with attention to detail.
