The rest was really good. Staff wonderful

Really nice hotel. Lovely pool and good level of service. Really liked the complimentary valet parking and location near Dubai Airport and about 15 mins to Dubai Mall. Also hotel is linked to Festival City Mall which has a good selection of shops and restaurants.

Our stay at the Crowne Plaza was nothing short of exceptional. From the moment we arrived, we were met with genuine warmth and professionalism that truly set this hotel apart.

A special mention must go to Rhea and Rajeev from Housekeeping, who went above and beyond to ensure our room was always immaculate, comfortable, and thoughtfully prepared. Their attention to detail and friendly demeanor made us feel genuinely cared for throughout our stay.

Sohel at the concierge desk was outstanding — always courteous, knowledgeable, and eager to assist. Whether it was guidance, recommendations, or logistical help, his service was seamless and reassuring.

The hotel facilities were excellent, well-maintained, and thoughtfully designed for comfort and relaxation. The location is absolutely beautiful, offering stunning views of the Dubai Creek, which added a calm and scenic charm to our experience. Watching the creek from the hotel was truly memorable.

Overall, the Crowne Plaza delivers not only in comfort and location, but in heartfelt hospitality. We left with wonderful memories and would gladly return again.

Lovely location for me and top floor room had stunning views of festival city. Excellent food and lots of amenities close by the waterside

I've been a Diamond Elite member since 1997, so when I rate one of the IHG hotels, then I know what to say.

Crowne Plaza Hotel at Festival City is one of my favorite hotels in Dubai. The hotel’s location is amazing—attached to Festival Mall, a long walking place, with a sea view and Dubai Creek activities and near the main airport.

The room is furnished well and clean, and the Wi-Fi is good and quick for any tasks.

Staff are friendly, especially Mr. Mohammed Fayed; I appreciate his care. Also, I will consider the same hotel on my next visit.

We stayed for 3 nights, it was not our first visit and i can say each time we feel like home.
We would like to thank Ms Maraym at frontdesk, for her hospitality. She offered us an excellent room with creek view.
I wnt to thank Atef from the main restaurant for being nice and making sure that we enjoying our breakfast daily.
Again the place, location and the IHG team made us feel we are at home

When I made the reservation, it was clearly for a family with children. However, upon check-in, we were given separate rooms far from each other, which was very inconvenient for us as a family.

In addition, no extra bed was provided, despite requesting it. As a result, my children had to sleep on the floor, which is completely unacceptable, especially for a hotel of this level.

This experience was very disappointing and did not meet basic family accommodation standards.
Share your experiences, help others make the right choice!
Think about what you would like to know if you were looking for a review about a place to relax. Please describe in detail what you liked and what you didn't. What would you advise to other guests and to the hotel owner. The more fully you tell about the hotel, the easier it will be for other people to make a choice and they will be very grateful to you!
