6/10 Good

The rooms were good with a double bed in the 1 room with ensuite and 2 single beds in the living room with another separate bathroom. The AC started leaking during our stay but the rooms were kept cool thoughout. The washer / dryer was very useful for the short stay after a longer stay without. The microwave was high up so will be a challenge for those who are unable to safely reach it. There was only a handful of utensils and no oven for frozen food or an air fryer which would have been useful. No cleaning liquids are provided or handwash in the kitchen. The TV did not include any apps like YouTube. The single swimming pool in the building in 2026 was being refurbished and we were directed to another of their hotels if we wanted to use the pool. The local transport nearby is minimal and does not operate throughout the day. It is a 15 minute walk to bus stops that operate all day or 20 minutes to the metro stations Burjaman or ADCB. Burjaman mall has a Carrefour supermarket in the basement - the other local stores have the basics, Local taxi to the station was about £2.50. Get a Silver Nol Card at the airport metro station or local station - comes loaded with some credit in the cost. Always tap in and out of buses - not use too having to tap out on buses. Was cheap and quick to get around though it did get packed at rush hour. Women only parts of the metro was also useful though not much choice during rushhour.

We have used Golden Sands 3 and 5 on and off for 25 years, The staff,as ever, are friendly, polite and always helpful. The apartments in 5 are comfortable and very tidy however they are starting to show their age, Golden Sands 3 has had a recent make over and looks fantastic its about time for 5 to recieve the same attention. The area is ideally located for local shops and dining and is within easy walking distance to the Metro. We will be returning in 2026/27 and are looking forward to it.

Comfortable stay near the station

This property resembles a service apartment. It had everything I needed, including a mini kitchen equipped with plates, utensils, pots and pans. The best part was the in-room washing machine, which allowed me to do laundry without leaving the apartment. A drying rack was also provided, which I set up on the balcony. The hotel features a front desk that seems to operate 24 h. It's about a 10-min walk to the Sharaf DG station (Green Line station #5) and apparently a 25-30 min walk to the Old Soul near the harbor.

Experience in Golden Sands

On checked in I was greeted with in-experience staff. I have been going to Dubai for a lot of years now, and always used Bonvoy hotels and IHG as I am a member. For a change I wanted to try the golden sands as in the past Golden sand was good place to stay, however on this visit, I am dis-appointed, the reception staff did not even know that they provide toiletries!!! Giving me wrong information. Location is ok. Apart from a bad experience from reception staff rest of my stay are ok. Staff called MOBI in the evening shift was made my stay ok, he is present at the reception helped me with my luggage when I arrive. Gave information I need that the reception should done in the first place. I suggest reception staff Mary should have further training with the service provided and Sadam for customer service training etiquette.
