Exceptional - Rixos on The Palm
We are just returning from 10 nights at Rixos on the Palm in Dubai - exceeded my expectations by far - spotlessly clean and staff could not do enough for you especially Javeed - will definitely be going back

Rixos , don't be the sponsor of russian agression and war in Ukraine ! NOW YOUR reputation is bad !To make party for russian tourist's during the war that russian government started - is crime ! Don't support crime ! Don't allow it !
Had a great time in the Rixos Dubrovnik, excellent service by the staff we had the pleasure of speaking to. From our arrival where Marco took our bags to the room, to Sergan who served us well in the sports bar and always chatted to us when he saw us around the hotel, it was just perfect. Diana was very attentive each morning at breakfast supplying my husband with numerous cups of coffee and Kristijan helped sort out our bill when we sadly had to leave. The rooms were clean and all the areas were always being serviced by the staff. The spa area is another great addition to the hotel and with an indoor pool available whilst the days aren’t so hot, you really don’t need much else. We found the food at breakfast and the evening buffet to be of excellent quality and the chefs in particular took great pride in what they did. If something wasn’t available they would go out of their way to ensure you were happy and would fetch it, if it wasn’t laid out.

There were drunk Russians in the hotel
This hotel supports war😡
The service is very bad !
Please don’t go there, service is bad, room aren’t properly clean!
The service in this hotel is terrible. Nobody cares about clients: dirty rooms especially restrooms, expired food and angry staff. Only money that you pay is in their priority. Do not recommend this ugly hotel.
The service is terrible. Concerts, after which life is reduced for many people. I don’t reccomed
Ужасный персонал, кухня и русские гости которые хамят и грубят на каждом шагу
Be aware, my honeymoon war ruined in this hotel, because they can’t control the Russian guest that they have. And there are 80% of all guest. Newer ever again would I visit this place. My husband was hit in the face by some waisted Russian and no one called a police, we had to go to the hospital alone. I would not recommend this place, it’s just too dangerous for anyone, who like us, just wants to have a peaceful vacation.
Russians attack people, steal and molest underage children. Hotel management, why are you supporting this?
Rixos is hosting celebrations for russian celebtities that promote war in Ukraine. Eternal shame! Unprofessional and poor marketing management!
Русских много (( пьяных которые орут что мы захватим мир
Didn't like the hotel. Lots of Russians who make noise and walk around drunk!
Would highly recommend Rixos the Palm had an amazing 7 night stay. John from Philippines (bar area) looked after us perfectly with faultless service, lovely hardworking man! Massive thanks also to Elliot and Mudassir for being so welcoming, friendly and helpful they made the stay one to remember. We will definitely be back :) Kind regards, Georgia Clow London UK
Stayed at the Rixos bab Al bahr in Ras Al khaimah Dubai and it was amazing! Food was the best we’ve ever seen in a buffet, even beating all the hotels we’ve stayed at in the Caribbean! In fact, we preferred the food in buffet to the Al a carte restaurants. I am gluten free and had my own personal head chef walk around with me to show me what I could eat and not. And the choice was above and beyond i imagined! Thank you sherif! Lovely man! ☺️ We were also looked after by Mohammed, Aymen, Depak, Fahad and others who Treated us like royalty! And they loved our grandchildren! Always there with a “high 5” every day!! The coffee bar was wonderful with the best cappacinos which I enjoyed first thing in the morning! Lovely staff here too! Reviews that complain that the hotel looks tired are not to be taken seriously! It is in the style of Art Deco so was stylish in my opinion! Hope to go back and see the staff again! 😍😍☀️☀️
Lovely hotel in Belek- one of the best hotels I have stayed in could not recommend this place enough,
We spent some fantastic vacations at Rixos Sharm El Sheikh in December 2021. Great impressive complex, extremely attentive, friendly staff, fantastic cuisine with excellent food - both main restaurant and in the specialty restaurants. Remarkable the spa area. Entertainment program professional, though heavily geared to Russian guests. We were so taken that we booked another trip to Rixos Sharm El Sheikh during our stay. An absolute recommendation. Egypt-experienced, it was for me the most pleasant stay in this country so far.
