Fantastic stay

The service was fantastic, the staff were friendly and helpful. Breakfast buffet was incredible, with a great range. The only issue was that our bathroom seemed to leak, and there would be water on the floor. They tried to repair it one night but it still happened.

I recently had the pleasure of staying at The First Collection in Dubai, and I must say, my experience was nothing short of exceptional. From the moment I arrived, I was warmly welcomed by the staff, particularly Harrison and George, who went above and beyond to ensure my stay was comfortable and enjoyable. Harrison was incredibly attentive, providing me with all the information I needed about the hotel amenities and local attractions. His friendly demeanor made me feel right at home. George also played a significant role in enhancing my experience; he was always ready with a smile and eager to assist with any requests I had, making dining reservations and offering great recommendations for things to do in the city. The hotel's facilities were top-notch, offering a blend of luxury and comfort that truly made my stay memorable. The rooms were impeccably clean and well-appointed, with stunning views of the Dubai skyline. I also enjoyed the delicious breakfast spread each morning, which fueled my adventures around the city. Overall, I highly recommend The First Collection to anyone visiting Dubai. The outstanding service from Harrison and George, along with the excellent amenities, made my trip a wonderful experience. I can't wait to return!
