When I was looking for a hotel online I searched for days and days to find what would be the best place to stay , based on value and location and quality of the hotel , I wasn’t sure what to expect from this hotel as the price seemed very cheap for the two weeks stay . I arrived at the hotel and first impressions were good , the room was big it was clean and it was new ! , you couldn’t fault anything , it even had modern light switch controls by the touch of a button . The walls were spotless looked as if nobody had ever stayed in my room . Everything you could possibly need was in the room , including wardrobes and fridge and ironing board and coffee making facilities. The location was a nice residential area , quiet and accessible by taxi to anywhere you need to be in 20 mins or so for a small fee . Personally the location was good for me as it felt like living in your own apartment rather than a hotel . The hotel offers a selection of restaurants and bars and has a very pleasant swimming pool area, as well as other facilities too , they organised a lot of excursions for me from the concierge that were all very good value and enjoyable experiences. For the entire duration of my stay the room was silent , and no noise from other guests , I’ve stayed in places which are 10 times the price that don’t have this level of comfort . They even offer a free day pass to a beach club on the palm , and a free bus to get there ! . Completely free ! The value here is unbelievable, back in England you wouldn’t get anything at this price of around 65 pound per night , it’s so affordable and luxury too ! , my advice to anyone is to stay at this hotel and go enjoy Dubai . If you want a beach there is plenty in Dubai to go to . This could be one of the best hotels in Dubai at the moment and it’s highly rated on here too . Amazing I’d definitely be returning to this amazing place .

The level of service is excellent! There was the ONLY point - when paying the tax upon check-in, we asked to pay in $, and they calculated it at some terrible rate, this was not the case anywhere else.
But then everything was just wonderful!
We settled into a great room with a beautiful view. Cleaning was great. Convenient control system - you can indicate to workers when they can enter the room for cleaning. Two sockets fit Russian plugs, we took another adapter with us - that was enough. Kettle, coffee, tea, water (one bottle by default, but you can ask and they will bring you more for free). Someone complained in the reviews that there is no dryer, but in the bathroom there is a stretched “rope” on which you can hang swimsuits to dry, and they dry overnight. Excellent wifi.
The pool is open from early morning, but at this time the neighboring hotel blocks the sun. There is sunshine from 9 a.m., but it’s also harder to find places by the pool. Workers help you find a place and lay out full containers.
Breakfast is a buffet: tasty, varied, I didn’t get tired of it after a week. You can sit inside or outside. Pleasantly large amounts of turkey and chicken.
Dinner (we had half board) - a choice of buffet or Mexican restaurant on the 29th floor. The buffet is a different menu than for breakfast, everything is also very tasty, especially meat, fish, and grilled seafood. Live music on the veranda. In a Mexican restaurant there is a set menu: you choose something from appetizers, a main course and dessert; tea, coffee - free; Some dishes require additional payment, but many are tasty and without additional payment; good prices for alcohol (but we didn’t try).
Convenient and varied transfers: Dubai Mall (Burj Khalifa), Mall of the Emirates (convenient metro transfer). Shuttle to the sea at Soluna Beach Club on Palma (entrance will be free - sun lounger, towel, umbrella included), pay only for water, food, what you buy on the spot.
Relatively close to the Dubai Circle Mall hotel - there is a good exchange office, places to eat, two large grocery stores (there is a small grocery store right across the road).
There are many parks around, so it’s very pleasant to walk in the morning before it gets hot or at golden hour.
Check out from the room before 12:00. On this day, breakfast is still included in the price. We had a transfer to the airport at 16:30, things were left at the hotel for storage, and several times without any problems something was reported to them or taken away. After checking out, you can sit in the lobby and use the guest wi-fi without any problems.
There are still so many pleasant little things, I can’t remember them all. I would love to come back here!

The hotel is very nice and attention to detail, heated pool always usable as the sunbeds are always available, there are no lines for breakfast or anything else. The hotel staff is always helpful and super friendly! The sore notes: the noise of the 3 construction sites surrounding the hotel, the location not convenient to get around Dubai except by taxi. Note of credit to Omar who helped us in everything, definitely making the stay more comfortable.

We really enjoyed our stay at this hotel! The room service was exceptional, the room felt brand new after each day out after the room service staff were done with a great job at cleaning and tidying. This hotel is by far the best for service and quality in the area for the cost you pay. We are eager to book a second time for our next visit to Dubai.

I chose The First Collection at JVC for my fourth stay in Dubai: absolutely the best experience for the quality of the services and the professionalism and helpfulness of the hotel staff. The hotel is located in a new residential area, about 15/20 minutes from the metro/Mall of Emirates, for which a free shuttle is available, 20/25 minutes from Dubai Marina, and 30/35 minutes from Soluna Beach Club, a beach club on the Palm Jumeirah with which the hotel has an agreement and is connected for free, absolutely recommended for spending half a day relaxing (we were there 3 times😉). Our room (no. 1106) was always perfectly clean, and we could hear absolutely no noise coming from the street or the surrounding construction sites. The rich and abundant breakfast was oriented more towards savory foods, but there was never any shortage of choices of sweets (2/3 types of croissants, pancakes, small muffins and jams) and fresh fruit. The dinner served as a buffet at the Village Bistrot restaurant offered very spicy dishes (closer to Arab and Indian tastes), while at the Sante Rià restaurant on the 29th floor Latin/South American dishes were offered (we preferred it). The hotel also has a swimming pool with a relaxation area and aperitif area, and a panoramic bar on the 30th floor, where reservations are absolutely recommended as it is always overcrowded. As for the staff..... ..... I absolutely cannot forget the professionalism of the guys at the Bell Desk, especially Anwar, Jitendra and Alamgir (I hope they will forgive me if I made mistakes in writing their names) who reassured us and took care of first person to resolve our moment of difficulty: thank you so much!!! I also thank Kristen, for the courtesy and kindness in always welcoming us at the Reception and all the guys at Sante Rià, thanks to whom we spent some pleasant evenings. Thank you all for making our holiday at your hotel beautiful. We hope to be able to return soon!

This was our 3rd stay at First collection, with a couple of day visits also when visiting JVC. You can't fault this hotel. The staff are welcoming and friendly, always remembering your last visit. All pool staff, life guards and bar staff made the days by the pool great for all of us, especially the children. Rooms were immaculate and cleaned to a great standard. Breakfast offered a variety of fresh foods from around the world. The pool area and bar had a great atmosphere especially in the evening as the pool didn't shut until 9. 00pm. Food at the bar was great this year. Everyone, including management are so eager to help you and wish you a good day. Nothing is too much. I visit JVC 3 times a year, I just wish I could afford First Collection everytime.

The room facilities were available only by request which was a bit odd e.g.
1. The fridge was empty no juices or soft drinks of any kind or mixed nuts. 2. Toothbrush and toothpaste were missing. 3. The window from the outside was dirty and needs cleaning
The good thing that they were fast in fulfilling our requests.
