Situated at the end of the crescent on Palm Jumeirah the Aloft hotel is a little gem in the Marriott collection. Great value for the brand – given the views from the rooms!
Aloft Palm Jumeirah Hotel Review
The check in process is very smooth from the standard reception pod.We were upgraded to sea room view on the 9th floor. There are only 11 floors in the hotel with a popular Mexican restaurant on the 11th floor. On the property there is another all day dining restaurant, pool bar and beach bar. The property also has a full gym on the 1st floor as well as small conference room facilities.
Upon entering the room, there is the bathroom directly on the leftside and bedroom straight ahead. You are surrounded by mirrors which help make the small room look bigger. On the left side there is a full closet with lots of storage space, including an iron and safe.
In the main room view, you are equipped with coffee and tea supplies as well as bottled water. There is also a tv and desk in the room as well as a bench to use for your suitcase if you wish – probably the best space to unpack!
A view of the desk – simple and clean – with built in power plugs for easy connectivity.
The shower is spacious and comes with shampoo and body wash.
Likewise the bathroom in the Aloft Palm Jumeirah comes with the standard amenities such as soap and body lotion. There is a hair dryer but no plug in the bathroom for safety reasons so you will need to use it nearer to the desk.
A look at the sea view room from the balcony. The design is modern and sleek.
The bed is large and spacious. It is very comfortable and in fact the most important part of any hotel room. Depending on your reason for visiting Dubai you will most likely be spending most of your time in your room sleeping. The Aloft on Palm Jumeirah does not disappoint.
The views from the room are amazing, given the average rate of the rooms, these are really amazing value in Dubai with views of the Burj Al Arab and Downtown Dubai.
The hotel is located on the main road of the crescent on the Palm and one of the last hotels on the tip so it takes about 15-20 minutes to reach the property once you enter the palm. Once you reach the hotel you feel like you are in another world. It is an amazing site to see the ocean in between you and mainland Dubai.
In each room there is a small balcony with two seats and a small table to enjoy the fresh sea air. Note that when you keep the balcony door open the air conditioning.
Overall the Aloft Palm Jumeirah is an excellent hotel for a staycation or a visit to Dubai. The beach is across the street – however once you get there it is fully managed by the hotel with a full beach bar and staff to assist you with anything you need. The views on the other side of the hotel are just as stunning overlooking the villas and Dubai Marina.
