Booked the Marhaba lounge in Terminal 3, Dubai Airport on the basis of this video and wished I hadn't. I visited the lounge on the 8th December 2011. The lounge had vlittle or no hot food, no beer, no ice cream nor cakes as shown in the video. In fact the food on offer was rubbish. The only positive was that there were a few seats available. Wouldn't go there if I were you!!!
xdaquietonex must be their PR rep. He probably created the video when it was first opened. Don't go there!
Utter rubbish. Spent several hours there and was very dissapointed. If you think this is "Luxury" you're easily impressed. It was loud and dirty. Won't be returning.
Take my advice if you're reading this - spend the extra money and book into the Dubai Airport hotel instead. You'll get a shower and a bed instead. You'll thank me later, trust me.
poor guy hasnt experienced real luxury, this lounge is completely shit compared to the proper ones offered in dubai, hence if you from dubai u would think this was shit.. i guess he was a tourist
i cant believe you felt like a million bucks in that lounge. its obvious you havent seen the good side of dubai airport before. this one is too small, cramped, and the quality isnt at all too good.
I haven't tried it yet, but I wish I knew about it when i also had a 7 hour wait for my connecting flight last summer, i didn't like the airport, mainly due to the fact I was harrassed by 5 south asian men asking me for money every couple of minutes they even threatened me. but to the person who recorded this video, its nice thank you, but when i started filming dubai airport i was warned by security to stop of risk being arrested, how nice, i thought they only treat indians like crap :)
Oh that video brings back bad memories... When I was there for a 7 hour stopover it was very busy and loud, the staff were not friendly and reminded us that the lounge is not for sleeping, the chairs were uncomfortable, dirty and worn, half of the internet consoles were out of order and there were no shower facilities. My wife and I agreed it was very poor value for money.
On the plus side, there were snacks/fruit/drinks available which were nice.
So you liked that. You should see the VIP lounge, non passengers allowed just royals and foreign head of states, diplomats etc.
Dubai is so interesting, they called them selves the richest finest place to be, but the airport, it's look so over the top with thousand of people with no class at all. Give you a try to any German high end first class lounges, Dutch or French. I hated that airport , never though possible to hate luxury facilities. looks like Disneyland in summer.
