    “An Unforgettable Stay”

    An Unforgettable Stay at the Grand Excelsior Hotel Al Barsha, Dubai Our recent stay at the wonderful Grand Excelsior Hotel in the Al Barsha area exceeded all expectations and gifted us with a truly perfect vacation! Perfect Location and Comfort The hotel is located in an incredibly convenient spot — within walking distance of bustling shopping malls and supermarkets, which made our stay thoroughly enjoyable and hassle-free. From the very first step into our apartment, we were pleasantly impressed: modern design, stylish and comfortable furniture, impeccable cleanliness, and well-thought-out space organization created a sense of premium quality. Spacious, bright rooms, incredibly comfortable beds — every detail was designed to make us feel at home. A Delicious Start to the Day The breakfasts deserve special mention! Varied, fresh, and incredibly delicious, they were the perfect start to each of our days. The wide selection of dishes to suit any taste, high-quality ingredients, and the pleasant atmosphere in the restaurant added even more pleasure to our stay. The Team That Makes the Difference However, the true treasure of this hotel is undoubtedly its staff — incredibly friendly, professional, and attentive. Special thanks to the front desk team: Rania (Guest Relations), Alaa (Supervisor), and Rami (Duty Manager). Your warm welcome and readiness to help with any question from the very first moments made us feel like valued guests. We would also like to give a special shout-out to the concierges — Jeffrey, Khalid, and Adnan , Ayoub — for their genuine care, valuable advice, and unwavering willingness to assist. Impeccable Service The housekeeping service deserves the highest praise. Thanks to the flawless work of the housekeepers — Shrikant, Nawodhya, and Amin — our apartment sparkled with cleanliness every day. Their work was so thorough, unobtrusive, and professional that it felt as if a quiet magician was tending to our comfort in the room. Thank you to the entire Grand Excelsior Hotel team for the impeccable service, the atmosphere of hospitality, and the perfect vacation! We are leaving with the warmest memories and are already making plans for our next visit! Best regards, Igor and Elena (Canada)

    “Best value hotel”

    During my 5-day stay in Dubai, I stayed here the entire time, and what I especially liked was the breakfast. The breakfast menu was diverse, the staff was friendly, and the food was so good that I looked forward to breakfast. If I visit Dubai again, I would like to request to stay at this hotel once more. I would like to thank the staff for their kindness again.
