I just returned from an very nice six-night stay at the Carlton Downtown Hotel. The views from my room on the 40th floor, especially of the Burj Khalifa, were absolutely stunning. The location was perfect for exploring the city, and I enjoyed the fireworks display on New Year's Eve, which was just a short walk away. However, the service felt a bit impersonal at times, and I did experience some issues with room service during my stay that could use improvement. Overall, I had a fantastic time! 🎆🌃

I had a fantastic stay at the Carlton Downtown Hotel. The welcoming reception staff added a touch of warmth to our arrival, and the location is perfect, just minutes from the Dubai Mall and Burj Khalifa. However, I did notice that the housekeeping service was a bit slow on the first day, though they were always kind and responsive when contact was made.

While the hotel has a sports bar, I found the dining experience could use some improvement. My room service order, Nasi Goreng, did not meet my expectations, as it tasted quite different from what I am used to in Southeast Asia. However, the cakes in the lobby looked delicious!

The Carlton Downtown is equipped with a range of facilities including a gym and swimming pool, which I made use of during my stay. Free shuttle service to surrounding malls was a nice bonus, but I did encounter some delays with the lifts.

My stay at Carlton Downtown Hotel had its ups and downs. While the location was fantastic and the staff was friendly, I faced several issues, particularly with safety regarding my belongings and inconsistencies in housekeeping. I could see potential in the hotel's amenities and facilities, but the lack of attention to detail diminished the overall experience.
