ME by Meliá Dubai is a striking 5-star design hotel in Business Bay, housed in the futuristic Opus building designed by Zaha Hadid. Reviewers consistently praise its unique, spaceship-like architecture, high level of personalized service, and exceptional dining options. However, guests note that nearby construction noise and unconventional room ergonomics can require some adjustment.
Best for
- Design and Architecture Enthusiasts — The hotel is a living work of art, being the only project in Dubai where Zaha Hadid designed both the exterior and interior spaces, down to the custom furniture.
- Business Travelers — Located in Business Bay, it offers a tranquil, high-end environment to unwind in after a busy workday, complete with fast and stable Wi-Fi.
- Couples on a Romantic Weekend — The hotel provides a stylish, intimate atmosphere with premium dining venues, a relaxing pool area, and high-quality spa services.
Not ideal for
- Demanding Fitness Enthusiasts — The aesthetically flawless gym is poorly suited for serious strength training due to an insufficient selection of professional equipment.
- Classic Beach Holidaymakers — Situated in a car-oriented business district, the property lacks direct beach access and is a hot, challenging walk from major sights in summer.
Rating breakdown
- B+Location — Situated in Business Bay, offering a quiet escape from Downtown but subject to nearby construction noise and limited pedestrian friendliness.
- A-Rooms — Spacious and meticulously cleaned twice daily, though the futuristic, rounded designer furniture compromises practical ergonomics.
- A-Service — Highly personalized and attentive, with notable praise for helpful reception staff, though valet and phone reservations can occasionally be slow.
- ADining — Outstanding à la carte and buffet breakfasts, complemented by top-tier in-house dining concepts like the Japanese grill ROKA.
- B+Facilities — Features a relaxing outdoor pool and a professional spa, though the gym prioritizes design over workout functionality.
- A-Value — Delivers a premium, highly customized lifestyle experience that justifies its cost for travelers prioritizing design and service.
Verdict
This hotel is a must-book for design lovers, couples, and business travelers seeking an architectural masterpiece with top-tier dining and personalized service. It is less suited for active gym-goers or families seeking a traditional beach holiday.
