At first I did not decide to purchase option with breakfast, because of I stayed at many hotels in Dubai and I did not like breakfast in many hotels. But, when we go for breakfast after individual payment I mentioned that breakfast is very delicious and restaurant staff is so friendly. After this I everyday go to breakfast with my family and i was too happy. Next time if i will book here again I will choose breakfast included option. Hotel is too comfortable for who is working online as me. at first floor you can find sound isolated cabinets for private online meetings. Table tennis, Playstation for relax from routine works.

Location is bit far from center, is the end of red metro line. Only one market near to hotel and its located in the metro station. So if you need some goods from market, you can bring it from center of the city when you come back from city to your hotel.

I have stayed in many neighbors/hotels around Dubai, Rove Expo City by far is my favorite. The staff are very friendly (and honestly look much happier than staffs at other hotels - Marriott), the place is very clean, good sound isolation (I had very good sleep there). Good gym, lots of space, and the whole building has lots of natural sunlight. The first floor feel like a co-working place that I was able to network with folks and get things done. It's further south of the city, away from all the buzz of Dubai which I love, the metro station is literally across the hotel (2 mins walk) and they have golf cart that can take you everywhere within the Expo City. I'd definitely stay here again. People who stay here are mainly international business traveler, you can feel the vibe is very different than any other hotels within Dubai. If you are staying here for tourist reason, definitely rent a car.

Laundry is a bit expensive.

The breakfast was fabulous with several options but predominantly middle eastern cuisine. The selection of fresh juices and fruits through to hot meals and/or eggs any style was just delicious - it was the highlight of every day. The staff were all so helpful and friendly from checking in and then daily engagement as you walk through the various spaces. Staff remembered your name and what you like to eat or drink. The spaces in the lounge and reception and bar are great as they are set up for hot desking and working which was a great environment. Daily filtered water provided in the rooms (refills were also available) and early servicing of the room. While the location was 30 mins away from the city center access to the Metro made it so easy to get about. The Dome - a feature of the Hotel area was amazing.

Liked everything

The hotel is placed in a futuristic area. Even if it's a little bit far from the city center (1 hour to Dubai Mall with metro) and 45 minutes with taxi from the aeroport, but you have the metro station 5 minutes walking. Only for the amazing breakfast, the hotel should be placed to a 4* stars hotel. The staff is very friendly and helpful. The rooms are spacious, clean every day, lots of amenities, fresh bottle of water daily, the oud smell and the great space in the reception.. all 👍 The Dom feels like avatar scene, really cool. You can buy a pass for visiting the Expo 2020. Definitely, I would choose this hotel again.

I had a great stay at this hotel. It’s clean, modern, and welcoming, with very friendly and helpful staff. The cleanliness is top-notch, and the free parking is a big advantage. However, there are a few things to note: the pool closes at 10 PM, which might be a bit early for some. If you have a car, the location is excellent—peaceful and far from noise and traffic, perfect for relaxation. On the other hand, if you don’t have a vehicle, the hotel is a bit isolated. There are no nearby grocery stores, except for a small shop at the gas station. Visiting the main monuments and events requires an average drive of around 30 km.

The pool was temporarily closed due to weather conditions when we went to the 12th floor around 9:30 AM. I called the reception area and asked if they can let us know once the pool is open. around 11 AM, I called again to double check, the receptionist again said that it is still closed and will inform us once it is open. Around 12 noon I can see from our room window that the weather is back to normal so I called the reception again. He said that it is still closed. I was not convinced with the information since I saw that the weather was very nice, so we decided to go to the 12th floor pool. to our surprise, the pool was already operational for almost an hour already. My daughter should have enjoyed it more if it weren't for the receptionist who gave us false information.

I had a wonderful stay at Rive Hotel Expo City. The room was exceptionally clean and well-maintained, which made a great first impression. I also appreciated the comfortable bed and pillows – they really made for a restful night’s sleep. The hotel lobby is impressively spacious, creating a welcoming and relaxed atmosphere from the moment you walk in. All the necessary amenities were thoughtfully provided, making my stay both convenient and enjoyable. One of the highlights was the fantastic view from the balcony – it truly added an extra touch of charm to the whole experience. Overall, I was very satisfied with my stay and would gladly return. Highly recommended!

The only downside was the loud music coming from the Expo Dome, which went on until around 2 a.m. While I understand that this is beyond the hotel’s direct control, I believe the hotel management could consider coordinating with Expo management to reduce the noise level after midnight for the comfort of guests.

Our stay was very comfortable, especially thanks to the stunning view overlooking the dome side, which made for a great experience during the shows. Although the room was close to the venue, we were pleased that no noise disturbed us. In-room dining was also excellent, with great service and well-prepared meals that enhanced our experience. The apple crumble, in particular, is definitely worth trying! What truly elevated our stay was the exceptional service provided by Duty Manager Moustafa. While we encountered some challenges during our visit, his professionalism and approach completely changed our perspective, turning our experience into a positive one. Additionally, we’d like to express our appreciation for the lady who assisted us during check-out. Her warm interaction and professionalism left a lasting impression. We look forward to our next visit!

We had an amazing experience celebrating the New Year 2025 at this hotel. The location is excellent, being close to the metro station and within Expo City, which made it very convenient for us. It was perfect timing as the Winter Festival was taking place, adding to the festive atmosphere. The hotel offers a peaceful and quiet environment, especially when there are no big events at the Expo City. Our room was spacious, and we enjoyed the gym and pool facilities. There were also plenty of indoor activities to keep us entertained. The breakfast was delicious and truly enjoyable. The staff were friendly and accommodating, with a special thanks to Nereza, who provided exceptional support during our stay. We even decided to extend our stay for another night! Highly recommend!

Rove Expo truly feels like a gateway to the future. Lively, energetic and full of character. One of my favorite nights in Future Dubai! The staff? Absolutely fantastic. Welcoming, friendly and always ready to help. Thank you Mustapha for making my stay special!

For those who like to plan their experiences down to the last detail, here’s a little note: • No room service after midnight, plan your midnight cravings accordingly. • Restaurants close around 23:00, so don’t miss out on some great bites. Talabat & Careem are still an option, but with extended delays. • Yes, it was a bit noisy after midnight due to maintenance and construction sounds and I couldn’t sleep much, but honestly, I still loved every moment of it. Overall, a one-of-a-kind experience that left me with great memories. Would I stay again? Absolutely!
