“Tailor-made for wallet-watching globetrotters, Rove is a hip launch pad with sassy, contemporary decor and such millennial must-haves as a an outdoor pool for chilling, a 24-hour gym, a industrial-styled cafe plus a hangover-friendly 2pm checkout.”

Fodors review:

“This funky budget accommodation by the Emaar group puts you close to the action; it’s right across the street from the Dubai Mall and behind the DIFC, meaning plenty of shopping and dining is within walking distance.”

Featured as Fodor’s Choice in Dubai.

Telegraph review:

“A feast for design-hungry eyes, this outstanding four-star hotel’s lobby encourages lingering. Guests of all ages congregate around contemporary art displays, co-working spaces, a convenience store and hidden PlayStation hub furnished with beanbags.

Location was great, walking distance to the Dubai Mall. Staff were super friendly and kind, eager to help. Loved the 24/7 mini market inside the hotel, super useful.

The gym given the size of the gym area was fine, but could be expanded I think with a few more machines.

Convenient location for Dubai Mall and the city

Room was adequate and well-appointed. Some free extras, like slippers, were on request, and told about this at check-in. Walk to Dubai Mall is <5 mins, with no roads to cross - very convenient. Small well-stocked mini-market in the hotel foyer. Special mention to the reception team, especially Pooja

Restaurant, including for breakfast, is TGI Fridays and the morning buffet from 06.30 is merely adequate. I expected better for the cost. Aircon cannot be turned off and max temp is 26degsC, although in the night it feels much cooler. However, opening a small window automatically turns off the AC but allows in traffic noise for south (Burj Khalifa) facing rooms is greater - mostly white noise with occasional loud cars that may disrupt sleep. So you can have either AC or open window. I requested printing in readiness for a meeting and was told 10 minutes. It was 90 minutes before I received my 6 pages, after several calls to reception. I was late for meeting.

Amazing view of Burj Khalifa and Dubai Mall. Very useful supermarket inside, open 24/7.

Restaurant "Friday" have good live music every evening. Unfortunately, dogs are allowed and their barking spoils the atmosphere.

Fab hotel! There is a mini mart and Costa onsite. The breakfast and TGIs is a buffet style with loads to choose from. Or you can order from the menu. The staff are very helpful. There's even a PS5 you can play on. Gym is air conditioned. It is a 10min walk to the Mall of which most is inside We were in the top floor (14th) and had amazing views of the cityscape and the Frame in the distance

The pool is a little small but don't let this out you off .

Loved our one day stay there

We loved the hotel's location as it is situated only a 15-minute walk from the Dubai Mall and Burj Khalifa. The hotel offers good value for money compared to other hotels in the Downtown area. While not very large, the pool area is perfectly fine, especially since it overlooks the Burj Khalifa. Our room also had a great view of it, which was an amazing sight at night. The staff is friendly, attentive, and helpful.

While the scent in all Rove hotel lobbies is always pleasant, the smell in the hallway leading to our room wasn't quite as appealing.

Highly recommend, exceeded my expectations

All round great place to stay. Great location, easy walk to Dubai Mall via the enclosed bridge, worth paying extra for the quality breakfast, convenient shop and TGI Fridays (with happy hour!) in the hotel complex, great friendly staff. We had a evening flight, reception kindly extended our check out time at no extra cost.

Finding the bridge to walk to Dubai Mall was a little tricky, easy once you worked it out!

What I loved about my stay: From the moment I arrived, I was greeted by the hotel’s signature scent and a warm, welcoming atmosphere. Every member of staff was friendly, professional, and made me feel genuinely valued — I was greeted numerous times throughout my stay. The room was spotless, comfortable, and offered a beautiful view. Overall, a wonderful experience that truly made me feel at home.

Best view in Dubai.

What's not to like🤔. It has one of the best views in the city, a beautiful, large pool area, a restaurant and bar in the hotel with nighttime views of the Burg Khalifa, a 24 hour well stocked shop, huuuuge comfy beds, fluffy pillows and a really powerful shower. The staff are lovely, the social areas are really cool, and it has a free shuttle bus to the Mall of the Emirates, just in case you fancy going for a ski after all that shopping. All this for the price of a night in an airport hotel at Heathrow or Edinburgh. As I say.. really...what's not to like.

not a thing. 😍

For a family with a child it was perfect. We got two rooms that were connected by the internal door, very convenient.

Location is very convenient, a sort stroll to Dubai mall, a store on the ground floor is very handy. Its a very good three star hotel, bus service is also very convenient. I d definitely recommend to others and come again!

Great stay at Rove Downtown Dubai!

I really enjoyed my stay at Rove Downtown. The location is perfect — just a short walk to Dubai Mall and the Burj Khalifa. The staff were super friendly and helpful from the start. My room was clean, modern, and comfortable. The bed was comfy, and the shower was great too. The hotel has everything you need — a 24/7 mini market, laundry room, gym, and a cool lobby where you can relax or work. Overall, it’s a great place to stay if you want something affordable, clean, and central in Dubai. I’d definitely come back!
