What one reviewer said

“Complaint Review – 17 Icon Bay Hotel (Dubai Creek Harbour) Today, shortly after 9 AM, I visited 17 Icon Bay Hotel because one of my customers had left a car in the hotel parking. I went there only to pick up the vehicle. But the experience I had with the hotel’s security—especially the supervisor—was extremely unprofessional and unacceptable. As soon as I arrived, the security stopped me and asked where I was going. I calmly explained the full situation: • The car was parked in parking 234 • The key was inside the car • My customer had already sent me photos of everything • I showed them the mulkiya, parking number, customer’s name, room number, and phone number • I even provided my Emirat…”

From Google Reviewers

Each card is a real, public Google review of this residence, sorted into our ten questions – answered only where the reviewer said something, and marked “Not answered” where they didn’t. Reviews written in other languages are shown in English and labelled. These come from Google, not from verified residents, so they count for only a small part of the HT Score, never as much as a real resident review.

“Complaint Review – 17 Icon Bay Hotel (Dubai Creek Harbour) Today, shortly after 9 AM, I visited 17 Icon Bay Hotel because one of my customers had left a car in the hotel parking.

He ignored all the evidence and wasted a lot of my valuable time for no valid reason. In all my years of work, visiting major hotels like Sofitel, Hilton, Sheraton, and many others, I have never faced such unprofessional and disrespectful behavior. There was another security staff member, Jonathan, who behaved politely and professionally. But the supervisor’s behavior was the complete opposite—rude, uncooperative, and completely unreasonable. I strongly believe that the hotel authorities should take serious action and consider removing this supervisor from his position. Someone with such attitude and poor judgment should not be representing a hotel. This experience created a very negative impression of the hotel’s management, and I hope the authorities review this incident and ensure that such behavior does not happen again.”

“I did not live in the 17 Icon Bay complex. I brought my daughter here for English lessons with Pavel. But overall I liked the residential complex. Good lobbies, lifts, gym, polite security. Large conference hall where the English lesson took place.”

“FIRE ALARMS!!! The company that did the fire alarms at this building are quite possibly the worst in the industry. False alarms all the time. It’s affected my sleep on multiple occasions. It’s not fun waking up at 2AM the night before a big day. The apartment is great and the location is brilliant but Emaar will not do anything about the alarms and I’m considering leaving after only a few month’s living here.”
