The Radisson Blu Hotel, Dubai Canal View is often celebrated for its prime location, which offers easy access to notable landmarks. Spacious, clean, and comfortable rooms are well-regarded by guests, although some point out issues with noise and less-than-ideal views.
While the service garners compliments, particularly for its friendly staff and efficient check-in, opinions on value for money and amenities are mixed, with criticism centered on high costs for what's provided and calls for enhanced gym facilities and Wi-Fi. The hotel's atmosphere, complete with an inviting ambiance, nonetheless receives consistent praise.

The hotel overall offers a pleasant stay, but there is room for improvement in the breakfast experience. While the food quality is decent, the variety of options is quite limited, making it less appealing for guests who stay multiple days. Expanding the breakfast selection with more fresh fruits, pastries, and international dishes would greatly enhance the dining experience and provide a more satisfying start to the day. A focus on improving this aspect could significantly elevate the overall guest satisfaction.

Location is excellent, 25min WALKING distance to Burj Khalifa (only 5min by car) Breakfast at 70Dh per person was absolutely worth it. Very yummy and again, super attentive staff!
Staff is very friendly and helpful. Biggest critique point are the showers. In all three rooms we booked there was bad water pressure and the temperature was not stable (either freezing cold or boiling hot and it fluctuated greatly). On two days and three different rooms, the water came out brown.
All in all, if the shower situation is fixed, this is a perfect place to stay for families visiting Dubai.

A lot to digest? Read an AI-generated summary of recent traveller reviews.
You can hardly find a better quality/price ratio! New and very clean facility. The location is strategic, the breakfast is varied and plentiful and the rooms are large and comfortable, but what really leaves you satisfied is the kindness and helpfulness of the staff (in particular Hakim and Brenda).... I have never seen such professionalism!! Super recommended!!!

Breakfast dread: dirty tables, food minimum, I've never seen such a poor choice in a five-star hotel, especially in Dubai! The room has been taken suite-- more or less, but you can hear the settlers as if they were living with you! Near the construction site! They're pounding piles around the clock, they've been up all night, it's just tin!!! I don't recommend coming here for the next year! Since they are built in turn next to the hotel 1 meter away in turn buildings. By the pool, the sunbeds are dirty, the floors are dirty! It's not five stars, it's Deshman's, like. Guys, this is really bottom! In Business Bay there are 5 star hotels at the same price with breakfasts much better, cleaner and quieter!!! I'd bet you 1,000,000 points on this embarrassment to Radisson Blue!

We were here from 28.10.-06.11.2024 and cannot recommend the hotel. It is definitely no longer a 5 star hotel these days and we are really used to better from the Radisson Group. There are two huge building sites right next to the hotel, which are very noisy and work goes on even at night. If you want to have breakfast outside in the morning, you can hardly have a conversation. Also very annoying at the pool. The pool area is quite small but clean. The staff very friendly and courteous. The wifi rarely works well and often not at all. An absolute no-go in this day and age. The rooms are standard, bathrooms could be overhauled. The room service meals were satisfactory but not worth the money. The minibar was empty from the beginning and was never refilled.

Booking a hotel in Dubai is a challenge as there are so many to choose. Just stayed at this hotel for 6 nights and I cannot say enough on how professional, courteous and helpful the staff were in making sure we had a great time - they looked after us from Day1 and I would say a special thanks to Anas, Saroj and Athick!
The rooms were fantastic and top-notch and cleaned on a regular basis and they even provided a valet service for my hired car. There is also a restaurant/Bar on the 3rd floor that was a great addition and even showed the live Champions league football!
In terms of location, its about a 5 min drive to the Mall/Burj Khalifa, 10 mins to the Dubai Frame, and around 20-25 mins to Jumeriah or the old Dubai. Overall a great hotel in a great location and a clear recommendation from us all to stay there next time!

We stayed a night here on a business trip and found the hotel to be in a great location (20min walk to Dubai mall), having great facilities (an amazing gym!) and super friendly staff. We arrived at 5.30am and the guy at reception managed to organise us a room early so we could shower and change. Although breakfast was an extra cost it was totally worth it! A fantastic range of buffet foods (including for those with allergies) and the option of freshly cooked omlette and pancakes. We sat for a few hours working and grazing! A great range of fresh juices and water flavoured with watermelon and rosemary (so great!). There are additional nice touches such as more free refillable flavoured water in reception.
Front desk staff were so helpful with directions and booking us a taxi to the airport. Nothing was too much trouble. In a city competing for tourism dollars, this hotel does well to stand out.

Amazing! Everything was perfect, from cleanliness to kindnesses of the staff. Location is very good, not too far from the airport and taxis are always available at the exit at any hour. Buffet breakfast is amazing and have several options also for people with allergies (such as gluten). Highly recommended.

Good property near the business area. Hotel accommodations are good and the location allows you to be anywhere within 10 to 15 min. of your business meeting. Internet is a bit spotty, sometimes it takes a bit to catch. There is a lot of construction around so traveling by car from the hotel to he north requires you to go around some ramps that are closed. Going south is a straight shot. He hotel has many amenities that are useful, they can get you rental cars at very good rates and the staff is extremely helpful. Breakfast is a good solid meal, worth your time and the bar is ok, I will put it above average when compared to other hotels. I stayed for leisure and I was able to book all my trips with the concierge desk and the travel agent on site. Both of them very helpful.

We were heading to visit Dubai on 27th Sep and Prior booking over the phone , we have clearly explained the room reservation that we will be arriving to Dubai late night and will show up in the hotel at early hours between 3:00 AM and 5:00 AM, and therefore we have asked for early check in plan and we have reached to an agreement and processed an online payment to confirm the room (paid some extra amount for that agreement). But the disappointment was when we reach to the hotel at 3:30 AM they were not able to accommodate us because we arrived one and half hour earlier and they have decided that we cannot check in before 5:00 AM unless we pay another additional amount to allow us entering the room !! And that’s despite that there are three children are exhausted and need to go to bed after a very long day. That was really disappointing!!
