Frommer's "As with other hotels along Sheikh Zayed Road, the enormous Crowne Plaza caters to business travelers but is also friendly to holidaygoers." Full review
Fodor's "This is the oldest hotel along the Sheikh Zayed strip, and it shows."
Rough Guide "One of the cheaper five-stars on the strip, the Crowne Plaza is a haven of old-world chintz amid the modernist establishments lining Sheikh Zayed Road."
Time Out "The central location means you should only ever be about 15 minutes from any attraction or landmark, be it a Creek crossing to the souks and airport or a quick blast up the highway to the Marina." Full review

Fodor's "As Bur Dubai's largest hotel, with a colossal 600 rooms and almost 200 serviced apartments, this property makes a real statement." Full review
Insight Guides "A rare resort-type hotel in the centre of the city, the 674-room Grand Hyatt lies roughly halfway between the airport and Sheikh Zayed Road."
Lonely Planet "The vast white-marble lobby at this hulking resort re-creates a tropical rainforest, with dhow hulls hanging from the ceiling." Full review
DK Eyewitness "This massive property may have marvellous views over Creekside Park across to the Dubai Creek Golf & Yacht Club, but it’s easy to let the myriad attractions within the hotel distract you."
Rough Guide "This colossus of a hotel – the second biggest in Dubai, with 674 rooms spread over sixteen floors – is grand in every sense."
Time Out "Grand Hyatt Dubai towers over the edge of Dubai's historic creek and has one of the biggest lobbies we’ve seen." Full review

Be sure to book one on higher floors if you want the best views of the city.
Star Service "This hotel's striking 16-floor facade dominates the Bur Dubai side of the Khor Dubai waterway, next to Al Garhoud Bridge." Full review

Management here seems to struggle with the high number of guests, which sometimes leaves special requests falling by the wayside.
