We booked 3 nights in this hotel, as it was recommended by the airline company. We spent little time in the hotel itself as we were always outdoors. As we checked in , we were given an upgrading as the room we had booked was not available, but the receptionist warned us rather rudely that, shold we overstay by a... More

Highland City hotel,Dubai is in a good location,but service needs drastic improvement.North Indian restuarant food is not upto the hotel standards. Buffet breakfast is really good and worth the money spent. Rooms are airy but compact.The rooftop swimming pool is too small,probably a toddlers pool. Disco is too loud.

It was owned by famous Indian hotel group and so was oriented towards Indian tourists. Reception and hotel staff were efficient and polite. Rooms and bathrooms were clean and... More
