“I stayed at Burj Royale and honestly loved it. The location is perfect—right in Downtown and super close to Burj Khalifa. The apartment was clean, modern, and had amazing views. The pool and gym were great too. Super comfy stay and would definitely come back!”

Insider Tips & Questions

Practical advice from the people who live here, and answers to what you’d want to know before signing – ask, and a resident will see it.

  • Tip

    If renting (not from Emaar), expect limited amenity access—request owner's app credentials before signing lease.

    From a Google review
  • Tip

    Be considerate of long-term residents if renting short-term — treat the apartment as your own home.

    From a Google review
  • Tip

    Request a different unit - unit 4509 was filthy with a broken mattress and was not properly cleaned despite two cleaning visits.

    From a Google review
  • Tip

    Inspect unit thoroughly before signing lease and document pest presence immediately in writing to landlord.

    From a Google review
  • Tip

    Book rooftop access in advance if you want sunset views - it requires reservation.

    From a Google review
  • Tip

    Call the resident directly or get their apartment number before arranging deliveries to the building

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.

“The building is nice but unless you are renting directly from Emaar things are difficult as you need to book a lot of things through the Emaar one app. If you want to use the bbq’s, you need an appointment through the app. If you want to use some rooms you need to make an appointment. If you want to go to the roof to see the view the only way you can is book an appointment through the app. You can’t just go and view as they keep the doors locked. Once again if you own the place it is fine but if you are renting from someone you are not allowed access to the app which can be frustrating at times.”

“This is one of most amazing building in Dubai Downtown that offers the straight on view of the Burj Kalifa. You are also surrounded by famous landmarks such as the Old Town, the Dubai Mall, the Dubai Fountain and Theater! You have to stay in the fountain view units to experience the breathtaking view. The location is very convenient and the security is very tight which is what we prefer.”

“The building is generally well maintained and in a good location. However, the air-conditioning system is very poor. Even when set to 20°C, it blows warm air and does not cool the apartments, which makes the rooms extremely stuffy. In addition, the bathroom extractor fans do not work, so steam from showers does not ventilate properly, making the apartments even hotter. Because of this, we woke up sweating and struggled to sleep comfortably. Aside from these issues, the building itself is fine, but the ventilation and air-conditioning systems need serious attention.”

“The tower's location is excellent but the facilities don't match Emaar's reputation, with parking areas covered in dust and narrow elevator entrances. Security is very cooperative and reception is also good.”
