We loved our stay at Radisson Blu Canal View Dubai.
Get the bad points out of the way, our room was booked for 2 adults 3 kids. Arrived and the room was a tight fit, not made up to accommodate us (bed was a sofa & no place for an 3rd child until another bed was brought) and it was 2am arrival. Once made up was still very small. Needed a family room but was unaware at the time of booking (thought the booking would adjust to our needs - not allow us to book a smaller room).
Good points & there is plenty! Firstly it’s a great location, close to the mail & Burj Khalifa (£4-6 in a taxi), easy from the airport (15mins, we took the hotel shuttle, which is a good option & price is worthwhile if a large group like our 7 in total), new hotel with view of the Burj Khalifa (our room was cleaned daily by Dev & his team, making towel characters for our kids), also good views from pool area, breakfast was great with lots of variety (our son has a peanut allergy and the staff were amazing throughout our stay making safe food, Daz at breakfast & Alice/Blessed/Shibin @Bai bar were so attentive & made us feel so safe), not far from the beach (20 mins £10-12 taxi).
I would definitely stay again due to the high service and personal experience we had (maybe I’d just book the larger room to help our stay)!
Thank you to the Radisson team for making our stay as peanut safe as possible and allowing us to feel very cared for!
Oh & great location for NYE party to see the Burj Khalifa fire works show!!
