“Traders Hotel Dubai - Highly Recommended”

There is no such thing as a well located hotel in Dubai because there is no such thing as a CBD. Dubai is an amazing and seemingly neverending contruction site.The heat (and distances) means you take taxis wherever you want to go. The Traders Hotel was about 10 minutes from the airport. Although on a busy intersection (all intersections are busy)the room appeared to be soundproofed. The hotel is near new. The staff were friendly and helpful and the breakfast was superb (arguably the best I have experienced.) Would look forward to staying at the Traders again.

“My Stay @ Traders Hotel”

Traders Hotel is the place to be while in Dubai whether for business of for plaesure. It's in the centre of everything with the train running just a few metres away and the station less than five minutes' walk from the hotel entrance. I however, suggest that management give consideration to a non-smoking space in the Chameleon Bar because non-smokers are literally turned into involuntary smokers.

“Great service”

Room on the small side but staff very helpful and attentive (but not intrusive) Hotel very close to Metro so easy to get around

“Explore Dubai”

The Traders Hotel was a great place to stay not only in accomodation but also in its position near the Metro - 2 min. walk. If you join the Traders Club - breakfast and afternoon canapes and drinks are included, plus free internet as well as Wifi. Checkout is at 4p.m. so its great for an afternoon flight. The closest Metro is Abu Baker al Siddique and for a few dollars you can travel all around the city. The staff at the hotel is very helpful and there is a tourist information desk for any tour booking. There is a free shuttle to the beach and another to the Deira City Centre. The airport is only 10 minutes away and easy to get to by either taxi or Metro. There are a few shopping malls within walking distance - Reef Mall and a 24 hour Hypermart. Its a great place to stay and to explore Dubai. I would certainly recommend it to anyone.

“Staff Aims to Please”

A terrific and helpful staff from the minute you walk in the front door, conveniently located just the right distance from the airport. Great for the business traveler, Good food at a fair price at any hour. People watching in the bar while listening to the best parrot band in Dubai is worth the trip!

“Good value for money, friendly staff.”

Friendliness of staff is a big plus in this hotel.

“Very impressed”

Our stay at the Traders Hotel Dubai was very good. The quality of the hotel in my opinion was 4 star. We have no complaints at all

“Holy Smokes”

Ok so Dubai is a smokey place period. But if I have a non-smoking room I still expect it to be that - a respite from the smokiness everywhere else. My room and this hotel are quite nice - I had reasonably high expectations knowing it was a Shangri-La affiliated property. But when I am hit walking in the door with a blast of stinky smoke smell and call down before even unpacking, I really don't expect to be told "We'll bring you some air freshener." Which they did. But it did no realy good. Each time I entered the room I was hit with a wall of smoke stink. By departure all my clothes stank of it too. It got to the point I had to brace myself to enter the room. Not what I really needed on a stressful business trip. I would however, give them another chance, just I would NEVER accept air freshener again -I'd be insistent on getting a real non-smoking room. Shame on those smokers who have so little discipline they have to destroy rooms in hotels. Get a smoking room or get out!

“Above average, good value hotel”

Friendly and efficient service. Food a bit disappointing. Free transfers to beach and shopping are a useful service. Overall, a good value, reasonably positioned hotel.

“OK four-star”

It was a bargain for a Dubai four-star, at the expedia price. Rooms were small and many alcoholic drinks on the menu were unknown by staff and unavailable. Room service receptionists often did not understand English. Food was OK though.
