Resort Jumeirah Al Qasr Madinat, Dubai
Expert reviews
“Al Qasr offers a distinctive Arabic flavor. Step inside the lobby and the scent of freshly cut rose petals — which are scattered into a center pool — hits you square on, while rooms look out onto Arabesque waterways and the Persian Gulf.”
“If cookie-cutter hotels don’t cut it, try this polished pad styled after an Arabian summer palace. Details are extraordinary, from the lobby’s Austrian-crystal chandeliers to mirror-polished inlaid-marble floors.”
“Set among the meandering man-made canals of Madinat Jumeirah, Jumeirah Al Qasr brims with Old World grandeur and feels like a royal palace because in many ways, it is. Al Qasr, which means “the palace,” is part of the impressive Madinat Jumeirah development, and the getaway was built and designed in the image of a sheikh’s residence.”
“Al Qasr (‘The Palace’) is part of an Arabesque-inspired beachfront resort and features opulent interiors fit for a sheikh. Guests can use all the facilities of the wider resort, which include multiple pools, an award-winning spa, more than 50 restaurants and bars and an air-conditioned souk.”

The resort has over 40 restaurants and bars and is comprised of three boutique hotels; Al Qasr, Mina A’Salam and Al Naseem.
The resort is something straight out of an Arabian fantasy with low-rise buildings topped with faux wind towers surrounded by lush green gardens and miles of man-made canals. Cream stucco friezes, keyhole arches, carved wood, mosaic tiles and even a five-ton Swarovski Crystal Chandelier in the lobby are all features that add to the wonder of this Arabian dreamland. This place is lavishly decorated and it is by no means minimalist.
The resort was designed to imitate the style of a Sheikh’s summer residence and even the standard rooms a purely decadent and luxurious. They contain antique dark wood furniture, patterned carpet and opulent fabrics in shades of gold, beige and maroon. The en suite bathrooms feature a walk-in shower, small tub and amenities from Omani perfume house and fluffy bathrobes. The five-star resort is the largest in the emirate and everything is done big bold and exciting.

Really good hotel. Great for a family holiday
Location is great. Having the Suek next door is fantastic. Rooms are good. Could do with a freshen up though. Pool area is good. Staff are lovely.
Breakfast isn’t great. Lots of the food sits out and loses quality. Coffee standard is not very good at all. We usually stay at the Mina Salam and would be inclined to go back to the Mina Salam next time we go.

Beautiful Hotel but ruined by the birds !!!
This was my second visit to the property . The property is simply stunning and the views to the Burg Al Arab and beach just beautiful . Lots of dining options and my favourite is The Hide steakhouse . First class food and hospitality by all the staff . My room rate included breakfast on this visit and simply amazing . Everything you could possibly require and excellent quality , just divine . Rooms are huge with every amenity you could want. All in all a very good stay , the only draw back is the price , it’s incredibly expensive to stay here .
There was a major problem with birds and seagulls around the main pool . The pool is incredible , but the experience was ruined by the squawking crows in every tree and the dive bombing of the numerous seagulls dropping poop on a constant basis . There appear to have taken residence here and sit in multiple numbers on the pavilion roof . The life guards are constantly walking round scooping it out . You really could not have a decent swim at all, it was really frustrating. I raised this problem on numerous occasions and management are aware . There is a guy that walks round with a falcon , presumably to ward them off , but for the last 2 days of my holiday he was no where to be seen . I just hope they get to grips with it , because it is truly awful .

Amazing property, variety of options for the beach&pool set up, long walkways for morning run or walk, great breakfast, spacious rooms, nice abra boat rides, beautiful lush landscape all around
Restaurant kitchen closes early. We have arrived at 11pm and there were no place for quick bite and drink. Since with kid we were not allowed at the bar. Restaurant children policy to strict, even the beach bar doesn’t allow for kids less than 7yo.

An exceptional stay with great service, cleanliness, and excellent facilities.
The stay was wonderful… Choosing the Jumeirah Al Qasr hotel played the biggest role in adding a high level of enjoyment and happiness.
The lush green spaces, the quick response of the staff to resolve any issue, the cleanliness, the prime location, and the excellent facilities.

Jumeirah Al Qasr blends warm hospitality, luxury, and perfect attention to detail.
What I loved most about Jumeirah Al Qasr was, first and foremost, the people. The staff were truly exceptional—it’s amazing how everyone is always smiling, welcoming, and making you feel so cared for. It really sets the tone for the whole experience. The attention to detail is something else. From the beautifully arranged rooms to the personalized touches that make every moment feel special, it’s clear that nothing is overlooked. Every aspect, from the perfectly prepared amenities to the seamless service, reflects a deep commitment to excellence. The facilities were outstanding, especially Talise Spa. The comfort of the property was unparalleled—I genuinely felt at home during my stay. I stayed to celebrate the New Year, and it was the perfect way to start fresh. Everything about the experience felt thoughtfully curated and special. Thank you for making it so memorable.

Very good
Despite everything, the hotel is beautiful, clean and fragrant, the staff in the restaurant, at the pool and on the beach , especially the guys at the entrance are all too kind and nice
we traveled with a small child and we asked in advance for a room closer to the elevator because the facility is huge, and we got the back room that was the farthest from the elevator and below which were the restaurants and bars.. Music and noise after midnight, and once we woken up by loud arguing on the terrace of one of the restaurants in the middle of the night. We were looking for another room the same night we arrived at the hotel and the only option offered to us is a room on the same floor very close to our room with a toilet intended for disabled people, without bathtub…honestly, I think that this was not the only option, but simply the staff at the reception did not try hard enough to satisfy the guest's request.

Every year it is getting worse. Not the hotel , not the staff but the clientele.
Clean, location, staff, perfect
Too much Russians, too much extravagance, too much decadence. The moral decline and cultural decline. Excessive in immorality. Pitty to see how Dubai getting a place worse than Las Vegas. Too much Botox, too much alcohol. Terrible!!! We even saw clearly escort girls walking around and waiting . Where is the moral, virtue and class. How can UAE allow this.

Beautiful , Grand , Palatial - the best hotel iv ever stayed in ..
This is the most beautiful hotel iv ever stayed in . Palatial and grand , from check in to check out , my experience surpassed anything I was expecting. The staff are outstanding with nothing being too much trouble . They are an absolute credit and clearly have been trained in customer service , to the highest of standards . My room was stunning with the largest bed I’d ever slept in , beautiful bed linen and pillows , with every amenity you could possibly need . The hotel has an array of fresh flowers when you walk through the entrance and the smell is amazing , it really does set the scene to tell you , you are in for an amazing stay . The pools , beach , restaurants, waterways with the little abra boats , is simply amazing . I cannot praise this hotel enough and I’m just in complete awe and can’t wait to get back .

Exceptional hotel with amazing staff!
The hotel was exceptional. I would like to mention and thank Cathy and the whole Palace Lounge team who made sure our vacation was unforgettable!
The rooms we had were excellent, with just a small disadvantage namely the fact that view of the ocean was not seen due to the high balconies.
