Al Seef Heritage Hotel Dubai, Curio Collection by Hilton

The historical heritage atmosphere of the locale

The best area to stay in Dubai if you want to see the heritage. The hotel is right in the souks. Very easy to find and to walk around the area. Check in & check out processes went smoothly. Room service was quick. Their breakfast is very good, variety of foods available. Everything is beautifully arranged. They have buggies to drive you to your room and also to take you to the other hotel, if you want to use the pool. You can also walk, is very close by. The room was comfortable and nicely decorated, the most beautiful Arab style. You have all the amenities available and gets cleaner everyday.

This is the most unique location in Dubai. This hotel is like no other. Beautiful design, very clean, everything was cleaned and replaced daily. There are buggies that take you to the pool across the whole promenade at your request at any moment. Al Seef village is must visit and many tourists come there, but if you are staying there it’s amazing as you get to explore any time and before the crowds arrive.

I stayed at this hotel December 2019, so 4 years later I returned December 2024. I arrived into DXB on a morning flight, so I didn’t expect my room to be ready. However, at check in the staff did everything to make my room available as soon as possible. In the meantime I was served tea in reception whilst a buggy was made available to drive me to the sister hotel Hilton Canopy to use the swimming pool in the meantime. Once checked in I was upgraded to a creek view room thanks to the amazing Guest Relations Manager Aysha Hussein whom provided an exceptional customer experience. Remember the rooms aren’t modern as they are meant to be in keeping of the exterior. However, they have all the modern features and the rooms include a safe, dressing gowns, bathroom amenities incase you forget a toothbrush, hairdryer, modern tv, air con, WiFi, shower and shampoo in the shower wall mounted and great quality towels, tea and coffee facilities including a Nespresso machine, so bring your favourite coffee pods if you love an Nespresso. The room was spacious, bed very comfortable and bedding excellent. The rooms and hotel are located in busy environment and can sometimes be noisy. However, the rooms are fairly quiet. In terms of quietness I would say 8/10. I opted for the buffet breakfast located a 2 minute walk. Always warmly welcomed. Amazing selection catered for European and Middle Eastern choices and a chef whom makes omelettes to order. I cannot fault the choice from fruit, juices, chicken sausages, turkey/chicken bacon, yogurts, cereals and grains and a vast selection of Middle Eastern dishes. The Hilton Canopy sister hotel is a 10 minute walk through the creek side soul and there you can use the swimming pool on the 7th floor complimentary. There are several convenience shops in the souk as well as a Costa, Starbucks and several cafes and restaurants. A walk to Bur Juman metro station is a 10 minute walk that will take you into downtown and beyond.
