My stay at Emirates Palace Mandarin Oriental was absolutely amazing, with stunning rooms and very nice service that made my experience lovely. The buffet breakfast was a highlight, with a variety of delicious options that exceeded my expectations. However, I did find the poolside cocktail menu a bit limited, and the constant security checks were somewhat annoying after a while.

I recently enjoyed an 11-night stay at the Emirates Palace Mandarin Oriental, and the experience was truly amazing. The service was perfect from check-in to check-out, and the hotel itself was stunning with its beautiful architecture and vast facilities. While I loved the luxurious amenities and the warm welcome from the staff, I did find the evening entertainment options for children to be lacking, which was a bit disappointing. Overall, it felt like a royal experience! 👑✨
