The Good Stuff
Office Space
Reviews describe business-center floors with small rooms and larger office setups, including space used by companies and clinics.
Fast Lifts
Several visitors found the elevators fast, modern and smooth, with 11 lifts noted in one review.
Helpful Security
Security staff have helped first-time visitors find the right destination when the lifts or floors were confusing.
Ground-Floor Market
The ground floor has a Zoom store serving quick bites and everyday essentials during a workday visit.
Clean Building
Reviews commonly describe the tower as clean, tidy and well maintained, with spacious common areas.
Tips for a Better Visit
Use Metro. Use the Dubai Internet City Metro Station link; it leads directly into the building and avoids walking outside in the heat.
Ask Security. If the lifts or floor numbers are unclear, ask security for directions; visitors say they helped them reach the right destination.
Budget Parking. For visits by car, budget for paid parking: the building’s visitor parking was reported at AED10 per hour, then AED5 per additional hour.
Avoid Bridge. Do not park below the bridge, as one review warns that vehicles parked there may be fined.
Avoid Peaks. Allow extra time during peak hours, when the lobby can be busy and elevators may slow down.
Check P1. If the metro connection to P1 is closed, expect to exit the station and walk around the building to enter.

The Bottom Line
The One Tower is a commercial office building and business center in Barsha Heights, useful for companies, clinics and visitors attending appointments in the tower. Its standout feature is the direct connection to Dubai Internet City Metro Station, so arriving by metro is unusually straightforward and sheltered from the Dubai heat. Reviews also describe business-center floors with small rooms, larger office setups and many companies operating from the building.
For a quick workday stop, the ground floor has a Zoom store with snacks, fast food and everyday essentials. The building also houses named tenants such as The Lipstick Makeup Institute and YH studios, while one visitor came for a beauty certification course covering nail and lash extensions. These are tenant offerings rather than services confirmed as run by the tower itself.
The common areas are generally reported as clean, spacious and well maintained, with fast elevators and helpful security. First-time visitors should ask for directions because the lift and floor layout can be confusing, and metro-to-P1 access has occasionally been blocked. Parking is available but paid: one review reports AED10 per hour and AED5 for each additional hour, while another lists AED50 per day.
Peak periods may mean crowded lobbies and slower lifts, so allow extra time for meetings.
