Media One Hotel

Dubai City, Dubai

Virgin rating

The hotel

There’s something seriously slick about Media One Hotel. It’s like they read all the guides to creating the ultimate urban retreat: find a tip-top location (this one’s in the heart of New Dubai), add another mirrored masterpiece to Dubai’s famed skyline, fill it with cosmopolitan city break essentials (Gym? Tick. Dining? Tick. Nightlife? Tick.) and zhoosh it up with accessories straight from a celebrity designer’s moodboard. Like a constant reminder of its cooler-than-cool location, your guest room looks out over the Arabian Gulf, Palm Jumeirah, or glittering Dubai skyline. And, for more eye-popping views, the tower’s dining and drinking hubs include Garden on 8, with on-trend refectory tables and big-screen TVs, and Coco Lounge, a ‘bar-meets-lounge-meets-pool’ set up, where you can slink from your swim to a poolside sofa for skyline views, cocktails, and chillout beats.

Great ambiance, friendly staff, attentive. Easy check in, using WhatsApp to communicate and informing you about changes if any, we had a drop to the office also arranged which made life very comfortable. Pooja at reception was a thorough professional. Helpful. Was a joy dealing with her. Looking forward to coming back.

Excellent service! Clean, Great energy and ambience! Lovely and considerate staff members who go above and beyond to check in with you. I even forgot my "Do not Disturb" selection on the LED panel and after not being in touch with housekeeping and noone hearing me for a day, Rita Mugo sent a WhatsApp message to see if all was OK and if I needed anything. While n my case, I was busy doing intense work for that 24 hour period due to impending deadlines, another person could have possibly been ill or unable to move and this service is incredibly helpful to ensure guests are safe and well looked after! Rita and I proceeded to chat and she wished me all the success for my upcoming project and reminded me of the importance of fresh air, rest, change in scenery eg using lobby and balance lol. This service is showcased with all the staff! Highly recommend!! Read less
