Review: Hyatt Place Dubai/Al Rigga

Dubai is one of the popular and vibrant tourist destinations and is probably on the bucket list for many travel enthusiasts who have not yet visited Dubai.

There are many fancy hotels in and around Dubai, but if you are looking for budget hotel close to Dubai Airport with free breakfast, access to public transportation, free breakfast and a chain hotel that earns you points – Hyatt Place Dubai Al/Rigga is one of the best bet.

 

We checked-in early, around 10.00 AM and we were greeted by the duty manager and informed us that we were upgraded to a King Bed Suite located on the 2nd floor.

 

Since this is Hyatt Place, you get only 500 points as Diamond amenity. This hotel looks clean, new and shiny – another example that hotels in Asia are better than their rating.

 

There are many seating areas on the ground floor and first floor. swimming pool and gym are located on the second floor.

 

This hotel has a total of 7 floors and we were assigned a suite in the second floor – Room no 226.

 

 

Even though this is called a suite, it is essentially a King room with a sofa and dining area. This  room is in L shape and you will walk in to the smaller leg of the room with the dining table in sight.

 

There is a marble counter top with storage space and mini bar to your right.

 

 

There is a king bed on the other end of the room. While there is no balcony, there is a floor to ceiling window spanning across the length of the room.

You can tilt the TV if you are relaxing on the bed.

There is a huge closet with bath robe, safety locker as you enter the bathroom.

 

Bathroom is not fancy, but it is certainly functional and clean.

 

Amenities in the bathroom.

 

Behind the front desk, there are 2 work stations if you want to catch up on your emails or print your boarding pass. There is also a concierge to help with your travel plans.

 

 

You get complimentary breakfast which is served from 6.30 AM to 10.30 AM. You have a choice of several cold cuts, fresh fruit,cereal, juices.

 

 

You can also find a few local breakfast items along with Indian dishes.

 

You can order hot dishes like Omelette from the live counter.

 

Most importantly, all the staff i have interacted are professional and happy to help.

 

Conclusion:

Hyatt Place Dubai/Al Rigga is conveniently located close to Dubai Airport and is affordable with free breakfast.

This hotel is also close to Al Rigga metro station and business district.
