"The hotel itself is incredible, the lobby is amazing and the amenities are brilliant. We were lucky enough to get upgraded at check in so our room was perfect as we had instant access to the pool. The staff was brilliant as well and it’s a brilliant place to stay if you plan on relaxing at the beach and just swimming. However, there’s nothing around the area in the hotel.

"I was incredibly happy I chose this location. The suite that I stayed in is HUGE (far more space than I needed!), it was comfortable, and had easy access to the city. Most importantly, though, was the quality of the service. I interacted with three different representatives at the hotel, and all three were excellent and helpful. In fact, one gentleman hailed a cab for me to take to the airport and negotiated a good rate on my behalf. I would definitely recommend the Midan Hotel Suites."
