 | Jumeirah Beach Hotel: Faulty Management at every level

Having spent 10 days at JBH over Easter I can only warn off hopefuls lured in by reviewers surely staying at other hotels? Like other reviewers we were treated to the full Basil Faulty routine at check-in, but unlike other guests we can find little to commend the place. Basically the hotel is run on the hoof; nothing is planned (no matter how much time/warning you give the management). Things happen only when you stand there and keep insisting it happens. The staff are nice enough, but basically they’re on their own; they’ve no support and a thousand-plus guests to provide for. I’m not sure who rated this place 5*, but it certainly wasn’t the same organization(s) who rate European and North American hotels. Compared to a European hotel it’s 3* at best (although the prices are definitely up there at the owners ratings). The furnishing is cheap and tired (white plastic sun beds, MDF, and cracked tiles everywhere), you pay for everything in advance (like a motel!), and some of your fellow ‘guests’ (victims) make the décor seem tasteful. Dubai, ably assisted by the Jumeirah group of hotels along this (beautiful) beach, is the current Costa Del Sol; if you liked Spain in the 70s (and other ‘Holiday Factories’), you’ll love this place.
Uselss management, poor quality surroundings, and coach loads of package operators
