Buthaina H. Families - 6/15/2026 Confirmed reviews ALL

This was my fourth stay at the hotel, and unfortunately it will be my last. While most of the staff were friendly and welcoming, I was extremely disappointed by the significant decline in service quality compared to my previous visits. The biggest disappointment was the breakfast. I would rate it 1 out of 10. The selection was very basic and far below what I would expect from a 5-star hotel. Having experienced the breakfast during my previous stays, I was genuinely shocked by the current standard. Had I known about these changes, I would not have booked this hotel again. I also had a very poor experience with the valet parking service. I arrived at the hotel in the morning, and at no point during check-in was I informed that valet parking service stops at 11:00 PM. Later that night, when I returned to the hotel after 12:00 AM, I was surprised to find that there was no valet service available and I had no idea where I was supposed to park my car. When I approached the reception for assistance, the receptionist was unhelpful and came across as rude. Instead of providing a quick explanation, I was told to wait while he finished with another customer. After waiting for around 10 minutes, I was simply told that I could park the car myself and leave the key. This information could have been communicated immediately. A lack of communication from the hotel created a frustrating and unnecessary experience. I do not know the employee's name, but he was the gentleman working at the reception desk at that time. It is disappointing to see such a noticeable decline in standards at a hotel that I had previously recommended to friends, family, and colleagues. Based on this experience, I will not be returning, and I can no longer recommend the hotel to others.

Amna A. Families - 6/8/2026 Confirmed reviews ALL

I booked this hotel based on the many positive reviews and recommendations I had seen on social media, so I had high expectations. Unfortunately, my experience was very disappointing. Upon arrival, I had to wait one and a half hours before my room was ready, despite having a confirmed reservation. When I requested room or bathroom cleaning, I was told that my booking was only for one day, which is not a reasonable response to a basic service request. In addition, I ordered ice cream and was ignored twice by a staff member. I also placed an order through the restaurant downstairs and was promised a callback, but no one contacted me and my request was completely ignored. The repeated lack of attention and poor service left me extremely frustrated and disappointed. This experience did not match the reputation and positive image that led me to choose this hotel in the first place. I hope the management takes these issues seriously and works to improve the quality of service for future guests.

Our stay at Mama Shelter Dubai was absolutely amazing! From check-in to check-out, everything exceeded our expectations. A special shout-out to Dilshan and Amr, who truly went above and beyond to make our stay even more enjoyable. Their kindness, professionalism, and willingness to help made a huge difference during our visit. We also had a small maternity photoshoot during our stay. Although we were initially stopped by an F&B staff member who informed us that it wasn't allowed, Dilshan stepped in and assisted us after confirming that we had already received approval from the reservations team via email. Thanks to his help, our special moment was able to happen smoothly, and we are very grateful for that. The pool area was fantastic, the food was delicious, and the overall atmosphere of the hotel was vibrant and welcoming. Everything about our experience was wonderful. We highly recommend Mama Shelter Dubai for families, couples, and anyone looking for a fun and memorable stay in Dubai. We look forward to coming back!

Dear Sean, Thank you for your amazing review! 💖 We're delighted to hear you had such a memorable stay with us. A special thank you for recognizing Dilshan and Amr—we'll be sure to share your kind words with them. We're especially happy that we could help make your maternity photoshoot a smooth and special experience. We can't wait to welcome you back for more good vibes, delicious food, and unforgettable moments at Mama Shelter Dubai! Mama ❤️You!
