The staff were all very helpful. Especially the Egyptian lady Raina. Room service was prompt. After checkout we were allowed to stay in the spacious comfortable lobby for long time. we stayed there for 12 hours!! my elderly mother slept on the sofa. They have plenty of seating areas in the lobby. Clean, quiet hotel. Ample parking space. Right next to DIAC park opposite University of Birmingham campus situated near this park where you can hire out Careem bikes for bike ride around it. Beautiful in the night. Free shuttle service from hotel 3 times a day to Mall of Emirates and Kite beach. Next door there is a pharmacy and medical centre. 3 min walk behind hotel to 3 restaurants of affordable nice food. Grocery shop and barber too.

25 minutes away from Down Town or other attractions. But that wasn’t a problem as we rented a car out. Maybe little away for people who don’t drive.

The peacefulness, the friendly and accommodating staff, the cleanliness. Not to forget the upgrade provided from standard to executive room, what a welcome gift!😊

A balcony or a window that can be opened is suggested.

My mom and I recently stayed at Vogo Hotel in Dubai International Academic City while dropping off my sister at university, and it was an unforgettable experience! From the moment we arrived, Ahmed at the front desk greeted us with the warmest welcome. His attentiveness and professionalism made us feel right at home from the start. The hotel itself was spotless and very comfortable. Our room was spacious and perfect for a family trip like ours. The location couldn’t have been better for anyone visiting the universities in the area—super convenient! One of the highlights of our stay was the amazing dining experience at the Garden Restaurant. The food was delicious, with a variety of dishes that catered to different tastes, and the service was top-notch. It provided a relaxing atmosphere, perfect for unwinding after a busy day. The hotel staff were so thoughtful and accommodating, making our stay extra special. I highly recommend Vogo Hotel for families visiting the Academic City area. Whether you’re here for school or just to explore the city, this is the place to stay.

I must say, it was an outstanding experience. From the moment I arrived, I was greeted by the receptionist (Casandra), a truly helpful and kind lady who made checking in a breeze. She was not only friendly but also went out of her way to ensure that I had everything I needed for a comfortable stay. The hotel itself is modern, clean, and well-maintained, offering excellent amenities that made my stay even more enjoyable. I highly recommend Vogo Grand Hotel for anyone looking for exceptional service and a relaxing atmosphere. The welcoming staff, especially the receptionist Casandra, truly made my visit memorable!

The staff was friendly and professional, making the stay pleasant. One dining room staff member, Srikanth, stood out for being exceptionally responsive and always serving with a smile, adding a personal touch to the experience. The breakfast spread was impressive, offering several options to cater to different tastes, and the dinner was superb, both in terms of flavor and presentation.

There is room to improve service efficiency and enhance responsiveness from staff especially at the check-in/out desk for a smoother guest experience.

Very good location providing that your activities are centralised in Dubai Academic City. A good set of facilities at the hotel with lovely outdoor public park within walking distance on the grounds of the University of Birmingham Dubai (ideal for winter period). The absolute best aspect of my stay was the highly friendly staff, especially Mr Ahmed at the front desk who was very professional yet welcoming with a friendly smile; thank you very much.

The location is best suited for activities situated around Dubai Academic City. Buses and taxis would need to suffice for activities outside the area. The hotel provides a bus service two times per day; this could be expanded especially to suit individuals who are visiting for work. Having stayed for such a long period,13 nights, it would be to have a more varied restaurant menu.

I would say this property is a hidden gem. It needs to be looked at and approached with the mindset of "value for money." This is a value for money property, which is exceptionally clean, conveniently located away from the traffic of the city in a quiet part of Dubai next to prestigious universities. Its location is actually pretty convenient for you to get on the main road the Dubai Al Ain road and travel to various destinations as this road is properly connected to exit points to various locations. The property is spacious, quiet, comfortable, well connected, has a strong WiFi, has a decent bar, sprawling lobby good for meetings, very clean, great staff, ample parking spaces, cost effective, easy check in & check out. Like I mentioned, value for money!

The food, the room was beautiful

We asked if we could have someone to mop our floors as the shower drainage system was not working but nobody attended to us. Maybe is it because we came from Zim and to me showed that you simply looked down upon us. Not even room service was done. Half the time the room looked scruffy and untidy. #blacklivesmatter #wearealsohumanbeings #notoracism
