Dubai - Hotel Information

[Frequent]

Hi have read through and searched this thread. But could not find anything definitive.

Arriving in Dubai the next couple of days. I have been booked into the Ritz Carlton at DIFC.

Can anyone can advise if its a Green or Red light for taking a friend back the room?

Plan on traveling to Dubai in June and got this message they are closing (see attached pic). Heads up for anyone else planning to book.

I could be wrong, but this is the FP that was red. The one on Khalid Bin Waleed road was green and I stayed there a few times back in the day.

Guys, any idea if the Sofitel Dubai (on SZR) or the Sofitel Oblisk are green? Anyone stayed at any of these hotels?

Thanks for the help.

Is currently blue!

Hello Aimara, what exactly do you mean with blue? Go or no go? I did book there and would be really disappointed if they didn't allow visitors to the rooms.

I did RTFF but I know only of Green, Yellow and Red. If one of the senior members could explain blue, I'd much appreciate it.

Many thanks!

I stayed at both LE Meridien and Capitol earlier this week.

Capitol: Very green. They don't care about girls coming and going to your room. I brought several girls from the club downstairs (Czar) and they all just took the elevator directly to the room. Did not stop at the front desk (and nobody cared). The rooms are pretty decent. I booked through Agoda and got a really good deal on a suite room. Made friends with the room service boy who I tipped handsomely and he delivered drinks to the room multiple times while I was with the girls.

LE Meridien: Green. Took one girl from Jules bar. Had to register her at the front desk. I stayed at the Royal Club with the hotel which is a different building right next to the Jules bar and other restaurants (aka the Village).

Will add my detailed report to the Dubai forum in a day or two.

Hi,

Would like to stay around the Marina area, especially in the "LE Meridian Mina Seyahi Beach Resort & Marina".

Does anybody have information whether this is green or not.

And please don't say RTFF LOL. I did already but couldn't find anything about this hotel.

Thanks in advance.

This was months ago but I booked for two and it was fine.

Sofitel Dubai The Obelisk. Any thoughtsa about this hotel and location? Grren? Thank you.

Anyone know if times grand plaza is green, the reception is away from the elevator but you have to cross the bus boy desk. Also on top floor they have fitness center open to everyone.

Hi,

I am new here but before asking questions, its more nice to share my experiences first.

Have been in Dubai 3 times last year (2022) and one time this year (2023).

Last year I stayed in 5 Palm Jumeirah two times and in Five JBR one time.

Never had a problem there to get a lady upstairs to my room.

Of course the elevators there are "guarded" and you have to register the lady at reception.

But after that you can take her upstairs.

At beginning of this year I stayed again in 5 Palm Jumeirah, but had problems to get the ladies upstairs.

Think because they made a mistake and my room was just booked for 1 person.

Before I always booked for 2 persons and never had a problem.

In April I will be back in Dubai again, but would like to try out another hotel.

So its important for me to know in advance whether its green or not.

Would like to stay around the Marina area, especially in the "LE Meridian Mina Seyahi Beach Resort & Marina".

Got a trip for 4 days planned at the end of April. I've always stayed at the Rotana Burjuman but looks like that's history.

Any recommendations on where to stay? I see a few other Rotana hotels. Don't know if the location etc is good.

Thinking of the Doubletree M Square but the cost seems high.

Appreciate any thoughts and recommendations.

Thank you.

Look Park Regis Kris Kin Hotel. Its also next to Burjaman. Rooftop view is nice and Best its green. I stayed there in October for 3 nights and had different girls everyday. 2 girls registered and 1 came direct to my room. The rooms are old but big.

I just arrived and checked in at the Burjuman Aarjan and was told by the receptionist, that as of 31 March 2023, they will be shutting down for good. As best as I was told, it is the result of a corporate tug of war She will be truly missed.

Sad new indeed. Back in FEB I was told they are going to halt operation temporarily for a renovation period of 5 months starting from April. Now that I think of it, renovation is code word for closed down for good. RIP.

Oh no! I will miss this place, it was perfect for punting and will be missed. I am assuming another hotel will take it over or something. I had some of my best sessions in Dubai at this place.

Let me answer your point 2 first. This incident will never ever affect your border crossing / airport immigration. These Hotel incidents are common occurrence when hotel decides your second guest can not be checked in. It has happened to many friends I know and the matter is closed at Hotel level only. You are safe. They will not report it to the authorities for sure. The lady took long time because she must be checking with her manager if she should allow your guest. IMHO if you have booked for 2 person and checked in together or taken the girl straight to reception when she arrives this issue would not have happened. Five star hotels have international guests. Many have living-in GF s with different names. Hotel will not dare to stop them with booking for two guests.

As far as other hotel goes Park Reggis is reported here in the thread. He booked for two guests and brought different girls everynight. Not sure about Ritz and Edition.

Having said above you have to also note that Ramadan is approaching which starts on 22nd March. Hotels may change the policy but I doubt when they have millions of tourist in Dubai. They don't want to turn away tourist.

Book for two always and take your girl straight to reception and register her. Take your chances, nothing is certain. Tip the guy standing near the lift in the evening AED 50/- on your first day when you arrive. Next day he will allow another girl without going to reception.

Thanks for your answer and insights. Maybe I wasn't clear with my post. For the second hotel I did book the room for 2 guests and we came in together and the lady still took so long.
