Good for families but showing its age
My kids love staying here because of the many activities available and the cool weather. The staff are also always helpful and pleasant. However, hotel facilities are beginning to show its age. And they have started to charge on using some of the activities. The front desk also seemed understaffed during our visit.

Great hotel for Jabel Hafeet
This was not my first time stay in this hotel, however feel sad for the dilapidated appearance of this beautiful property. Things are getting worse over time. It is a very nice property and would love to visit if restored to her past glory.

Good Place for short stay with Family. Water rides and pool makes children's to enjoy max. We noticed outsiders accessing hotel pool and children's park which is creates over crowd and inconvenient to hotel visitors. Management should restrict the access to only Hotel visitors.

Location is the best part , in the mountains it gives a pleasing experience. The staff is good but maybe overloaded as they do not respond quick or are in a hurry to execute tasks at hand. The duty manager needs to pay more attention however either he is not available or not even appointed. I hope this property to be run more professional and with better quality toiletries and towels which in several cases you will find of poor quality or overused / tattered

Disappointed
The hotel is very old , the cleanliness in the room is terrible, we found nails on the ground from previous stay. We have also asked for water fill up in the day we checked out and it was rejected The towels handed to us on the pool were very very old The hotel should be renovated and they have not utilized outdoor area with nice scenery to have the breakfast their for example.

Review
Hotel was good. We initially booked a deluxe room but gave us a free upgrade to a superior room when we checked in, which was awesome. The room needs some maintenance though, AC control is not working properly, toilet flush is weak, shower is not working properly (we need to put something in the pin to open the shower to keep it going). But these are just minor things, everything was taken over by the great view that we had. Will we come back? Maybe no, once is enough. Just to experience the hotel’s location.

Great Christmas stay in Dec. 2020
We had a great stay. The hotel was one of a kind, located on top of the mountail (Jebel Hafeet) and in fact quite fresh - even chilly at night time, in December. (Can't wait to visit it in summertime for a break from the scorching heat of the "lowlands".) I found the staff very (VERY) professional. Ms Thereza and Mr Ali in particular, but also the excellent chef at Belvedere restaurant, the manager and all the staff at breakfast whose name I cannot recall, made it a great stay over Christmas day 2020. (The Christmas dinner and also a quick lunch we had the following day were excellent, quality- and taste-wise; frankly so, for our often too demanding European palate :-).) I had read various negative reviews before coming here, and almost cancelled our booking because of those, but quite honestly, I didn't find a glimpse of a negative experience or a point to raise, asides what cannot be helped: anti-Covid19 measures that made breakfast a race at peak hours (nobody's fault) or the night chill that sometimes prevented us from enjoying our drinks till late on the great balcony at Al Khayma café (still, the staff did their best to accommodate any request we had, any given time.) Same goes for the reception staff at the lobby, and for the room catering staff. We will certainly visit this place again. Two couples and a child, for this matter. From Europe.

not a good experience
We had to leave one day early Breakfast:i feel safe distancing was not followed as the restaurant was fully packed so we decided to skip the breakfast Service: My wife asked if she can go outside to the outdoor and she was told it was closed... to discover the next day it was open hotel: very outdated! We felt a very unease feeling with bug bites! We decided to leave one day earlier although we paid for it.
