Great location wonderful hotel

Great location, amazing staff. Breakfast was ample with a good variety from many countries. The staff is that of a 5 star hotel from the porter to check in and breakfast staff to housekeeping. Everyone made us feel welcome. Even when we couldn't check in early, they welcomed us to leave our bags or just sit and enjoy the views.

The interior of the hotel and lobby area is very stylish and unique. Very confortable chairs and sofas in various info individual corners, The room with 2 double beds was spacious with a walking in closet and a balcony with a view of the water. Very comfortable space. I chose this hotel with its proximity to the aIrport, hood ratings, and easy access to the creek, the Souk and the boats to cross the Creek. But I was happily surprised with the cleanness of the hotel, special decor and ambience, space and helpful staff. The street behind the hotel had shops and restaurant within walking distance with more locals than tourists.

I recently had the pleasure of staying at Reviera Hotel in Dubai, and I must say it was an outstanding experience from start to finish. The hotel itself is immaculate, reflecting high standards of cleanliness and comfort. Its prime location is undoubtedly one of the best, making it a perfect choice for travelers. The food was nothing short of excellent, offering a delicious international buffet infused with the rich flavors of Middle Eastern cuisine. The breakfast chef was not only highly professional but also genuinely caring—engaging with every guest, explaining the dishes, and even personally ensuring the dining area was perfectly maintained. The hospitality at Reviera Hotel is truly remarkable. Without hesitation, I would rate the entire staff five stars—from the exceptional hotel manager, Mr. Mustapha, to the dedicated porter, Omar. Mr. Mustapha's professionalism and kindness stood out when I faced an issue with my booking due to an honest mistake. I had unintentionally selected the wrong dates through a third-party platform (Expedia), but he graciously approved the cancellation and even reached out to Expedia on my behalf. His generosity extended beyond this gesture, as he personally invited me for tea at his desk—a level of hospitality I had never experienced at any other hotel before. Special thanks go to porter Nazeem for his kindness in lending a phone charger to my niece, as well as to front desk manager Abdul Rahman, whose professionalism and warm hospita
