We visited this hotel as a family of five. Great hotel, within walking distance to the Creek and the Souks.
Several Malls, and restaurants nearby. 20mins to the beach by taxi (very cheap). All rooms have fully equipped kitchens for self catering, supermarket across the road. Rooms clean and comfortable- huge super king bed. Roof top pool great at the end of a full day sightseeing!
We had the buffet breakfast in the restaurant which was good value for money.

We had a 2 day stopover in Dubai, but as we were arriving around 1am and leaving around 2:30am, we need a place that offered 24 check in. This hotel offers this and the ease of checking in and out was great.

The rooms are big! The beds & pillows are the best I have had travelling -- wish we could have brought them home. We wish we could have stayed longer in Dubai to make full use of this room and its facilities. As per other reviews, pretty close via taxi to most locations. Air conditioning was perfect.

There is an Indian restaurant next to/connected to the hotel, and it has great food at an affordable price. We had $75AED left and 4 of us to feed. We had enough food with that price for at least 5-6 people. Concerting that into Australian money, what we paid for the whole meal, is less than what you'd pay per person here.

This was an excellent place to stay!! The bedrooms were a good size and extremely clean :) When we got to the hotel, there were no delays in getting our rooms or luggage taken upstairs.

The service was exceptional and the buffet was not bad either. This hotel is close to Meena Bazaar if you would like to go there. But for everything else you will need a cab. I also recommend that you try to book tours through private personell....Don't book through the hotel. Just ask hotel staff (not managers) about booking tours privately ;) They should point you in the right direction and the tours should be significantly cheaper!

If you want to cook food in your suites, there is a grocery store located close by as well. They have everything I possibly needed.

Overall I would recommend this hotel to anyone---It may be cheaper than other Dubai hotels but the quality is equivalent!

We have stayed at Rolla twice and both times booked a studio appartment. The rooms are large, clean, quiet and well furnished. There is a kitchen area with a full size refrigerator, sink, microwave, toaster, electric kettle, two plate electric cooktop as well as a clothes washing machine! A drying rack is provided as well as an iron and ironing board. China, glasses and cutlery as well as pots and pans are provided. There is a good size security safe in the wardrobe. TV and phone in room. The bathroom is large with toilet, shower over the bath and a bidet. Plenty of towels are provided along with soap, shampoo and tissues. There is also a hairdryer. The air conditioning works well. A swimmming pool and gym are on the roof.
Staff are friendly and well informed. The 24hr check-in/check-out is great if you have late night/early morning flights. There is a small cafe on the ground floor which serves the standard hotel breakfast and snacks during the day. A great Indian resturant is next door. There is a 24 hr supermarket just down the road with an automatic cash machine outside.
Situated on Al Rolla Rd. it is a quick walk through the computer store district to the Creek and the abra (water taxi ) station.

The Rolla is not a resort hotel but is well situated and great value for the short stay traveller.
