Reviews describe a convenient Bur Dubai base close to markets, restaurants and transport.
Several guests view it as a basic, affordable stay when price matters more than refinement.
The buffet breakfast is mentioned as a highlight, with Indian and continental choices reported by one reviewer.

A guest specifically praised the service at the Striker sports bar.
Inspect first. If possible, inspect the room before paying a non-refundable booking; one guest advised this after finding dirty sheets and hair.
Request quiet. Ask for a room away from the bar, club or lower floors if you need sleep; loud music was reported until 4am.
Check linen. Check sheets, blankets and towels immediately, since guests reported hair, stains and missing or delayed towels.
Test amenities. Test the AC, room lock, shower and Wi-Fi on arrival and report faults straight away; several reviews describe failures.
Plan the visit
Repeated reviews report dirty bathrooms, unclean bedding, bad smells and, in some rooms, cockroaches or bedbugs.
Reception interactions are frequently described as rude, dismissive or unhelpful when guests raise problems.
Guests report outdated furniture, damaged walls, broken taps, doors and other maintenance problems.
Club and bar music, plus outside traffic, has kept some guests awake until the early morning.
Paid parking was reported as being away from the hotel, with one guest saying the car was fined.
The Bottom Line
Palm Beach Hotel is a budget stay in Bur Dubai with rooms, three restaurants, two bars and a nightclub. Reviews point to nearby markets, restaurants and transport as the main practical advantage. On-site options include an in-house restaurant, buffet breakfast and the Striker sports bar, so you can eat or have a drink without immediately heading elsewhere.
The trade-off is a very uneven standard. Some guests describe spacious, clean rooms and a comfortable long stay, but many recent reviews report dirty bathtubs, musty or cigarette smells, stained or unchanged bedding, cockroaches and bedbugs. Broken AC controls, showers, locks and doors also appear repeatedly.
Reception service is another risk: several guests found staff rude or dismissive, although one month-long guest reported consistently helpful support. Noise matters here. Bar and club music, along with outside traffic, has kept guests awake, and one review says reception treated noise until 4am as normal.
Parking needs clarification too: a guest paid 30 AED per night while the car was kept 13 minutes away, and another reported a parking fine. Check the room, linen, working amenities, parking arrangement and visitor fees before committing, especially with a non-refundable booking.
