"How did it strike you on arrival?Located minutes from the airport, the Park Hyatt is a large resort that maintains a cozy atmosphere thanks to a well-trained, attentive staff. Nice. What’s the crowd like?The crowd at the Park Hyatt is truly an eclectic mix from around the world—you’ll find yourself mingling with Dutch, German, and American tourists, as well as locals. The good stuff: Tell us about your room.The rooms are spacious with modern Arabian decor. Some rooms have views of Dubai Creek, where you can watch seaplanes take off and land. We’re craving some deep, restorative sleep. They got us?In addition to high thread counts and ultra soft mattresses, the bedrooms feature a pillow menu to customize your sleep set-up. How about the little things, like mini bar, or shower goodies. Any of that find its way into your suitcase?All the rooms have Nespresso machines. Please tell us the bathroom won’t let us down.The bathroom, stocked with Bulgari toiletries, features a standing shower and a separate bath tub. There aren't any mirrors directly in front of the sink, which may be inconvenient for some travelers. Instead, two long mirrors are located on both sides of the same wall as the sinks. Maybe the most important topic of all: Wi-Fi. What’s the word?The Wifi is fast and free. Room service: Worth it?The room service seems a bit overpriced and options a bit limited, but the quality of the food is exceptional. Staff: If you could award one a trophy, who gets it, and why?All of the porters at the Park Hyatt deserve an award. The property is quite large, so having them around to guide you is a massive plus. Anything stand out about other services and features? Whether it’s childcare, gyms, spas, even parking—whatever stuck with you.The pool and the fitness center are standout amenities here, as is the spa with its variety of available treatments. The hotel boasts on-site electric vehicle charging stations. Bottom line: worth it, and why?Close proximity to both the airport and the city, as well as the property's large size, makes this a worthwhile hotel for families and travelers alike." - Laura Ratliff
