Capitol Hotel Dubai The value for money 4 Star Bur Dubai Hotels
With its central location Capitol Hotel Dubai is within easy reach of most tourist attractions and business addresses in Dubai.
Nice, large, clean rooms and a choice of restaurants in premises and nearby, this hotel scores on all fronts. A favorite amongst Bur Dubai Hotels.
About The Hotel:
The Capitol hotel is mainly for business people, it's not a family hotel.
There are 2 nightclubs in the Capitol Hotel. Despite regulations, men are allowed to take ladies / girls of the night to their rooms. No identification necessary.
The Gymnasium is well equipped and you can enjoy the sauna, solarium, steam room and massage parlour.
The rooftop temperature controlled swimming pool is great to cool down during a hot day.
The hotel rents out rooms by the hour too, and so do not be surprised if you get a knock on the door later in the evening from Chinese or Thai girls of the night.
The room door locks are not secure, so carry your valuables, like cash, credit cards, jewelry and electronics with you when you go out.
Walls between 2 rooms are quite thin, so be prepared to hear the unimaginable.
The quality and variety of complimentary breakfast is good, but you can't have room service delivered in-room.
The biggest plus of The Capitol Hotel Dubai is the low price and excellent location near the business district and souk.
The room message service, offered by the hotel is in fact a disguised service for working girls.
Inspite of being in a non-smoking room, you'll need to put towels behind the door to prevent smoke from entering your bedroom. This is quite irritating for a non-smoker.
You better choose a room far away from the disco's, because they're really loud and go on till 3 a.m.
Trade Center and Jumeirah Beach are just five minutes drive from the hotel.
There's a complementary shuttle bus to the Dubai World Trade Centre.
