Royal Falcon

Our Members Say

 The Royal Falcon in Deira (Saluddin Street) is the only flipside of my visit to Dubai. Located in the sketchiest area of the city, it offers visitors the 'Pakistani Night Club', which in my opinion is a glorified dance bar and pick up joint.

The Staff is questionable too. There was the shady bellboy, who kept offering us 'deals' on the touristy stuff to do. Our room was very average with tiny flea like insects in the washrooms, and a broken lamp, which they kept promising to fix, but never did. The receptionists (equally inept) kept saying they would 'look into the matter'.

Though it seems ok on the surface, the crowd it attracts comprises of leacherous middle aged men, who oggled at us each time we walked into the pint sized lobby. Naturally we spent most of our time out of the hotel, and used it for bathing and sleeping purposes strictly.

On our second last day, we were waiting in the lobby and we saw some of the'dance girls' with their 'customers'. It was extremely freaky cause it confirmed our worst fears about the place. Further, every night they put up a billboard at the entrance of the lobby. This had polaroid pictures of each of the 'Pakistani Dancers', so that customers may have their pick.

Really creepy, and totally avoidable.

p.s.: I'd really suggest all women and families avoid visiting this place, for the sake of their peace of mind. Single men should avoid it too, lest they get trapped in some sketchy sham or the other. The men visiting it looked like the suspicious sort, with bulky tattooed bodies, shifty glances and leacherous grins. Totally gross. We would have left if we already hadn't paid a compulsory lumpsum advance. :-S

p.p.s- Don't even visit if you're really really desperate for a low cost accomadation
