Vida Downtown

"How did it strike you on arrival?In a city overrun with monumental mega-hotels, Vida Downtown feels like a boutique hotel in a small town. The light-filled lobby has ample seating, iMacs available for guest use, and lots of personality. Nice. What’s the crowd like?Solo travelers and couples looking to be close to the heart of Dubai flock to Vida. The good stuff: Tell us about your room.Rooms are nicely sized and decorated with soothing neutrals and trendy furniture. Rooms either overlook Vida’s tranquil garden or pool area. We’re craving some deep, restorative sleep. They got us?Soft bedding and ultra-quiet rooms ensure a good sleep. Nightly turndown service is an unexpected treat. How about the little things, like mini bar, or shower goodies. Any of that find its way into your suitcase?Coffee-makers aren’t available in the rooms, which may disappoint those who need their morning caffeine fix. Please tell us the bathroom won’t let us down.The open bathroom is integrated into the room, so it might not be ideal for families or anyone looking for a little privacy. Toiletries are high-quality, but strongly scented. Maybe the most important topic of all: Wi-Fi. What’s the word?Wifi is free, with a strong signal and fast speeds. Room service: Worth it?The best part about the ample room service menu: you can order it from your TV. Anything stand out about other services and features? Whether it’s childcare, gyms, spas, even parking—whatever stuck with you.Take advantage of unexpected amenities like free coffee and croissants in the lobby, bike rentals, and free valet parking. Bottom line: worth it, and why?An affordable, centrally located option with surprisingly good amenities, Vida Downtown flies under the radar compared to more popular, big-name options in Dubai." - Laura Ratliff

Booked via Trip app for an excellent price in July’25. The hotel is about 17 mins from Dubai international airport and approx £15 taxi ride. Location of the property is very central and close to business bay and downtown.||On arrival was greeted by Wahab with a big smile and all my suitcases were taken off me and managed by him. I was given a luggage tag to keep safe. |The hotel is absolutely brilliant and amazing value for money. I was greeted by Ellie at the reception who was super helpful and very swiftly checked me in. She was absolutely brilliant and did everything with a smile on her face. |Great customer service, friendly staff and very comfortable rooms with separate toilet and bathroom. Beds are super comfortable and room very spacious. Complimentary bottles of water and room temperature already cooled to 19 which was a blessing in the heat.||All in all, a great experience and amazing staff! Will come back again and highly recommend if you are travelling from UK.

My stay at Hotel Boulevard Autograph Collection has been nothing short of amazing. The hotel itself is stunning — beautifully designed, incredibly comfortable, and in the perfect location. Everything you need is just a short walk or drive away, whether it’s shopping, dining, or sightseeing. The convenience alone makes this place a top choice in Dubai. But what truly made our stay unforgettable was the service — especially from Maribeth. She is an absolute gem! From the moment we arrived, she made sure we were comfortable and well taken care of. She went out of her way every single day to check on us, making sure my coffee was just the way I like it and ensuring we had everything we needed. Most importantly, she looked after my child with such warmth and care — something that any parent deeply appreciates when staying away from home. Maribeth is genuinely sweet, kind, and goes above and beyond in everything she does. She made us feel welcome, valued, and truly at home. Her attention to detail and heartfelt service added a special touch to our stay, and for that, I’m incredibly grateful. I would highly recommend Hotel Boulevard to anyone visiting Dubai — and if you’re lucky enough to meet Maribeth, you’re in the best hands!

I stayed at the hotel from 3rd July 2025 to 2nd August 2025. Overall, I found the rooms to be very comfortable, with daily cleaning and fresh linen provided. However, on certain days, the replenishment of tea, coffee, and water was not up to standard, and I had to request these items separately. The breakfast experience at the restaurant was disappointing. The menu remained unchanged throughout my stay, with little to no variation. Additionally, there were frequent delays in serving dishes from the hot kitchen, which often compelled me to leave without having the main course to avoid being late for work. That said, I must commend the exceptional attention and service provided by the Filipino supervisor. On the days she was on duty, there were no service lapses, and her efforts made a noticeable difference. Another area of concern was the valet service. Particularly during weekends in the evenings, the service was very poor, with significant delays in handing over keys due to inefficient traffic handling by the attendants. However, I would like to recognize Sumith for his commendable service — he was very prompt in the mornings, which helped compensate for the delays I experienced at breakfast. Overall, despite these shortcomings, the hotel maintains good and comfortable standards.

I am currently staying at this property for five days, and unfortunately, I feel compelled to share my concerns based on the experience so far. From the moment I arrived, the service fell short of expectations. No one offered to assist with my luggage—not even the bellboy—which left an impression of poor hospitality and a lack of professionalism. The restaurant on the first floor was also a major disappointment. There was no sense of attentiveness or service culture. No staff approached me to ask if I needed anything. It was evident that the team lacked proper training, and the overall experience was well below the standards expected of a Marriott property. Most concerning, however, is the internet connection. It is extremely unreliable—practically unusable. I’ve been unable to conduct basic Teams calls or meetings, and speed tests confirm the connection is well below acceptable levels. I’ve had to rely on my own mobile data to stay connected, which is both inconvenient and unacceptable in a city like Dubai, known for its high-speed connectivity. Having stayed at numerous hotels around the world, I am genuinely surprised and disappointed by the service level here. A stay at a reputed property like this should reflect care, professionalism, and efficiency—none of which I’ve experienced thus far. I sincerely hope management takes these matters seriously and implements immediate improvements.

We had an absolutely amazing time at Hotel Boulevard! The service was top-notch from start to finish. Ahmed was incredibly helpful throughout our stay, and Talaat went above and beyond to accommodate all of our requests. The location is perfect — just a short walk to Dubai Mall. The breakfast was great with a good variety, and the rooms were very clean and comfortable. Highly recommend staying at this hotel — excellent service, great amenities, and an overall perfect experience

Great hotel in a very good location. Walking distance to Dubai Mall and other places of interest. Rooms were nice and comfortable. Staff was good. The only thing I removed another star on service was the breakfast, not the best at all, stale bread even. I saw a couple t feed the crows the bread. But would certainly stay again.

Our stay was absolutely amazing! "ve never encountered such a genuinely caring team - true hospitality that's so rare these days. Mr.Talaat went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect for us, and we're incredibly grateful for his help and kindness throughout our stay. Everyone at reception was constantly worried if we feel comfortable and have everything we need for our rest. The room was spacious, beautifully designed, and perfectly clean. The breakfast team was very kind and helpful too, food choice was greatl Wel'l definitely be coming back. This place offers so much value for such a reasonable price. Highly recommended!
