An unforgettable experience
Raffles Dubai Wafi has earned a permanent place in my heart. Having stayed there with my family five times in a row, I can say without a single hesitation that this isn't just a luxury hotel—it is a sanctuary filled with the kindest, warmest souls we have ever had the absolute pleasure of meeting. As a family, every single one of our needs was met not just with professionalism but with a profound, heartfelt warmth that made us feel completely at home.
Words truly fall short when trying to express our deepest gratitude but I want to shine a light on the incredible individuals who made our stay genuinely unforgettable:
Front Desk & Butler Excellence: Thank you to Mr. Vijay at the reception for such a seamless welcome and to dear Miss Wendy, our butler, whose beautifully handwritten note was such a sweet gesture and who took such exquisite care of us throughout our stay.
Departure & Concierge: A warm thank you to Mr. Pushkar, Mr. Rashid, and Mr. Ronald, who proved to be the kindest people, handling our luggage and transport with absolute grace as we prepared to leave.
Culinary Delights: To the Azure staff and Chefs, thank you for your radiant warmth and for whipping up the most scrumptious, world-class breakfast that started our days right.
Afternoon Tea & Salon: The entire Raffles Salon team—especially Mr. Hassan and Miss Aye—were wonderfully kind and catered to our every whim for Afternoon Tea.
Solo Restaurant Team: A special shoutout to Miss Nafi, Miss Tina, Miss Betty, Mr. Sai, and Mr. Jason at Solo Restaurant, who consistently went the extra mile to ensure the service remained top-notch.
Going Above and Beyond: To the dedicated security staff and Mr. Atif, who kindly brought our breakfast straight to our room in the early hours of the morning so we wouldn't miss our early flight—your kindness is infectious!
Housekeeping: A massive thank you to the phenomenal housekeeping staff who kept everything immaculate with such quiet perfection.
Raffles Dubai Wafi, you have mastered the art of genuine hospitality. Thank you for making us feel cherished and pampered. We will be back, again and again inshallah.

Mixed Review
I’m going to buck here and not leave a glowing review. This is my 2nd visit to Raffles Dubai. I convinced my sister to come along having sung the praises of this hotel, which on our last visit (September 2024) I could find no fault. We booked a landmark suite this time which is absolutely superb, the staff are wonderful throughout the hotel, as they were on our previous visit. The breakfast is very good although a slightly smaller selection I think.
Where it started to go downhill for me was the the fact that the club lounge on the 10th floor has been closed. Afternoon tea is now served in the lobby. The offering is far smaller and hugely disappointing.
Canapés and drinks are served in Solo restaurant, no self service buffet, which on our last trip was excellent. The service was slow, we were there for 45minutes, offered one drink. The canapés did not compare to the previous offering and were bland and unappealing.
We are here for 11 nights, staying at this hotel was a real treat for us and I’d been so looking forward to it and sharing the experience with my sister. We’re on our 4th night and to be honest it’s not the experience I was expecting, I know the club benefits are ‘extras’ included in the room rate, however you are paying a premium for those rooms. The quality of these ‘benefits’ have been diminished but the price tag has increased.
