Ciel Dubai Marina, Dubai

While the pool area offers great views, it may feel small for a hotel with over 1,000 rooms. Arrive early to secure a sunbed.

Check if they offer turndown service since it's a new hotel; it might not be standard yet.

Check-in can be done using a tablet, which speeds up the process, but expect crowded elevators during peak times.

Be prepared for potential delays with the elevators, especially during busy times.

The suite I stayed in costs around 2,164.97 AED per night, so plan your budget accordingly.

Make sure to reserve your spot for the Sky Lounge in advance to avoid being turned away.

The dinner buffet at the hotel is surprisingly good and offers a variety of cuisines.

The hotel offers a variety of dining options on the 13th and 14th floors, including a buffet at EAST 14 and Mediterranean cuisine at WEST 13. Make sure to check their hours as they are only open for lunch and dinner.

The breakfast buffet is decent but could be improved with an a la carte option.

If you want to explore nearby attractions, be prepared to use transportation like the metro or a car, as some places are a bit far to walk.

Be prepared for heavy traffic congestion in Dubai Marina during the day, which can delay your arrival.

The elevators are less crowded at night, making it a good time to move around the hotel.

Be aware that the hotel can get hot near the large windows, especially in sunny weather.

Make sure to reserve a spot at the TATTU Sky Pool on the 76th floor ahead of time, as access is limited to guests with reservations.

Make sure to visit the atrium, although it may not be clearly visible from certain angles.

The hotel is located on the edge of Dubai Marina, providing a surprisingly quiet atmosphere at night.

The elevators have panoramic windows, providing stunning views while you ascend.

Consider visiting the TATTU Sky Lounge during sunset for a stunning view of Palm Jumeirah.
