We received such a warm welcome and the staff were friendly, accommodating and incredibly helpful. The location is excellent, just a few minutes walk from the Hippodrome. The rooftop restaurant has lovely views and is the perfect place to unwind and watch the sunset after a busy day sightseeing. Would definitely recommend and we hope to return one day. ##### Suzie Stayed 4 nights in Sep 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Shahzad 17 Sept 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities The stars of the hotel were the staff.

I am hoping their Manager appreciates, values them in every way possible and rewards them with plenty of bonuses for all their efforts. The terrace was a fantastic view to see all the Masjids and the sea view. To all the Dara Hotel staff - Thank you very much once again and I apologise if I did not manage to say goodbye to all of you. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Dec 2021 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller 31 Mar 2021 Liked: Staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Vriendelijke en zeer behulpzame personeel, kamers iets aan de kleine kant maar wel schoon en netjes.
