Several customers valued being able to do laundry late at night or around a busy travel schedule.
The lounge setup includes sofas, Wi-Fi and charging, so waiting does not mean standing beside the machines.
Travellers repeatedly found self-service considerably cheaper and faster than hotel laundry, with some loads finished within about an hour.
Reviews describe staff helping first-timers understand the machines and giving specific washing advice for items such as jackets.
One visitor found free parking at the Millenium Business Centre, with the laundromat reached via the mezzanine area.
Allow extra drying. For towels, bedding or large loads, allow more than one drying cycle rather than planning a tight schedule.
Avoid daytime bulk. If carrying a large amount of laundry, avoid daytime visits when queues may be worse.
Confirm pricing. Before handing over multiple bags, confirm the number of loads, drying cycles and delivery charge in writing.
Bring a card. Self-service payment was reported as card-only, so bring a card even though other reviews mention cash at earlier visits.
Use the pin. For a Careem or Uber, pin Atria Residences to make the entrance easier to find.

The attended option collects, washes, dries and returns laundry, including same-day hotel service in some reviews.
The waiting area has coffee and vending machines with drinks and snacks for purchase.
Beyond self-service washing and drying, customers mention folding and ironing as available options.
Drying performance is inconsistent: some customers needed several cycles, while others reported clothes remaining damp.
A customer reported one person occupying all four washers and two dryers, creating a substantial queue.
Detergent and softener are added automatically, which may not suit clothes requiring a different product or no softener.
One customer reported being charged AED 150 for pickup service after the same bags cost AED 55 as one self-service load.
The laundromat is a considerable walk from the nearest metro station.
The Bottom Line
247 Laundromat Business Bay is a practical self-service stop for residents, hotel guests and travellers who want to wash and dry clothes themselves rather than pay hotel-laundry rates. Reviews describe modern 10kg washers, simple English instructions, included washing liquid and cycles of roughly 35–40 minutes. Drying commonly takes 45–60 minutes, though larger loads may need longer.
The waiting area is unusually usable for a laundromat: customers mention comfy sofas, free Wi-Fi, phone chargers, air conditioning, coffee and vending-machine snacks. A nearby minimart or supermarket gives you somewhere to go while a load runs, and one review found free parking at the Millenium Business Centre. It is in Business Bay, but the nearest metro station is reportedly a 30-minute walk.
Pickup and delivery is available for people who do not want to wait, and several hotel guests found it timely and much cheaper than hotel laundry. Get the load count, drying cycles and delivery fee confirmed before handing over large bags, however; one customer reported a major price discrepancy compared with using the same machines independently. Dryers are the main caution, with reports ranging from successful 45-minute cycles to clothes remaining damp after several runs.
