    It’s a perfect place to stay for solo travellers. You’ll get to meet many foreign nations, who share their stories. Host’s were humble and welcoming. You’ll be staying in world’s third largest residential building with a view that you would never forget in this life time. The amenities of the hostel are wonderful. They also provide a light English breakfast. You’ll also have access to the gym and pool of elite residence. This place is at walking distance from dubai tram network which is in-turn connected to dubai mono rail and dubai metro.

    My stay with At The Top Hostel was amazing. All the staff worked tirelessly to ensure we had a great stay. Anastasia and Valera work very long hours and cook for everyone at very early hours in the morning and are always happy. The people we met were amazing. Really close to barasti beach and tram stop. Jacuzzi, sauna, steam room were great to have access to and the gym was well kitted out. What an amazing stay!

    Located at Elite tower, this hostel provided an excellent view to Plam Jumeirah. Monorail station right in front, carrefour at ground floor, everything just so convenient. The host and worker there are soooo nice and friendly. Its clean, AC works great, Hot water works great, got amazing complimentary breakfast and there's waching machine aswell. Bunk bed and bedding are so comfy aswell. I'll comeback for sure!

    This was by far one of the best hostels I have ever visited. The atmosphere was fantastic, it was great for meeting different people and the facilities were awesome, especially the swimming pool. There is a kitchen so you can go to the grocery store and cook meals, which is a big plus. I was very comfortable with the staff and their helpfulness was truly appreciated. Good location close to public transportation and cafes. Otherwise very beautiful hostel.

    This is a large, corporate feeling hostel. It has nice facilities and were kept clean. I stayed there together with my family and we really enjoyed it! The staff are very friendly and welcoming, making checking in very easy. The atmosphere in the hostel is great and it's very easy to find lots of nice people to chat to. The hostel is a short walk from the metro, which makes travelling around the city easy. Great place to stay and meet travellers of different nationalities, ages and hobbies. Def recommendation!

    It is the best place to stay in Dubai. It is more than just a hostel, as the service provided here is close to the one in highly rated hotel. The way of how managers treat guests was out of words. Many thanks to Anastasia and Denis to be able to create such a warm and friendly atmosphere at this wonderful place. The facilities were unexpectedly good, even better than in pictures. A big common room was a perfect area to meet people from Europe, America and the rest of the world. To sum up, it was a great stay and I grateful to all people I met here for my unforgettable experience.

    This place is awesome, would highly recommend. Staff super nice, friendly. Good communal area. Reasonable price. Right next to metro and easy walking distance of the city center. The receptionists were very professional and helpful when it comes to directions and best areas for hanging out. All over pretty good stay.

  • 3/5 Scott T. 5 years ago on Google
    Not as good as a remembered from last year. Walking tour wasn't really a tour, just a walk with stops for photos. The meal share evening was 2 hours late which messed up all plans for the night. Some of the staff just continually hover in the communal kitchen which is a bit intimidating when you just want to cook some food and eat. We had russian girls in our room getting drunk & making noise all night but were unfortunately only sociable with themselves. Other than that, very clean, perfect location, beautiful views.

    If you are traveling alone best place to stay here., you get to meet people all around from the world. Tram and metro nearby. Don't miss parties are Barsati and zero gravity which are walkable distance from the stay. The view from the hostel is amazing it's like you are having an skydiving experience everyday

    At the top is a very clean and nice hostel with close proximity to the metro as well as a plenty of places to hang out and have fun. The staff was cordial and gave us valuable tips about the city. The facilities are modern and available to every guest without any additional charge. I would recommend for a chill stay in Dubai to every traveler.

    I would really recommend the At the top Hostel, the staff are really friendly and helpful - they have thought of everything you might need. We had a private room with a private bathroom as a family group with older teenage children. The location is in a lovely part of Dubai, really easy to get around with nice shops and cafes. The hostel was clean and comfortable with big rooms and each room has lockers for your stuff. All the team was very helpful which made our stay very pleasant.

  • 5/5 Alex C. 4 years ago on Google
    Staff amazing, view amazing, clean and well organised...24 hour check-in. I will be back for sure

  • 4/5 Mister G. 5 years ago on Google
    Well maintained budget accommodation at a fantastic location in Dubai Marina, sea facing lobby and balconies. Staff is very cooperative and energetic, would like to stay again in my next visit.

  • 4/5 Conlyn M. 4 years ago on Google
    Overall very good but I did have one issue being that the toilets and bathrooms were not cleaned on a regular enough basis leaving them to become very dirty. The location is very good in the Uptown area just outside the Dubai Marina, however, actually finding the building can be challenging as at the time of writing the address on google maps is wrong but I have requested an edit. The staff were nice and helpful and I have no complaints. The rooms were good and clean if a bit noisy at times, the only problem I had with the rooms was extension cables were just laying on the beds which is somewhat of a fire hazard and some of the lockers were on their last legs.

  • 2/5 Evan Y. 4 years ago on Google

  • 5/5 Izidor B. 6 years ago on Google
    Just needed a place to sleep on overnight layover and I was very pleased with my choice of hostel. I was offered help with the heavy bag right to the room, which was very appreciated. Breakfast was delicious; it was nice to have a wide selection of food as a start of the day:-) Besides, there are a few food spots in walking distance. Won’t recommend to come by late flight since all public transport is closed and you will have to take a taxi. I liked this place and would stay there again!

  • 5/5 Bistra F. 5 years ago on Google
    I’ve left my heart there! If you’re travelling alone, you should visit this place! All was just on the top, especially the staff and communication, also all the furniture just in perfect condition. Very pleasant place with extremely friendly & open-hearted, positive people.

  • 5/5 Pipin S. 6 years ago on Google
    Nice hostel. We enjoyed to stay in a private room with a fabulous sea view and attached bathroom. It has very relaxed and friendly atmosphere which was good for social interaction between the guests. The managers Denis and Anastasia were extremely helpful to offer a crib for my little daughter, give directions or taking care of our suitcases while we had the last day of our holiday. We would definitely come back to stay in At the top hostel as the time here was enjoyable and memorable.

  • 5/5 catchingupwithsusi 5 years ago on Google
    Best hostel ever! The view from the building is just stunning! The entire hostel faces Dubai Marina and The palm. The structure is super clean and the staff super helpful and nice. I had the best stay of my life, and met so many nice people. Also, downstairs there is a Carrefour supermarket, which is very useful if you plan to eat at the hostel!

  • 5/5 Colton Y. 6 years ago on Google
    We stayed 7 nights here at 6-bed dorm. It was awesome. Everyone in our room was respectful and polite. Staff was so friendly and helpful. Good location, which has many restaurants nearby and easy to walk to all the sites. The rooms themselves are quite basic, a bed, a locker and a lot of space to keep luggage. For a short stay, I would recommend it and would stay here again.

  • 5/5 Estella M. 6 years ago on Google
    I’m not the one who usually leave feedbacks but let’s this place be an exception. You definitely should consider to stay at this hostel. Here you will get everything a simple traveler like me wish to have: comfy bed, clean shower, good atmosphere, taste meal. As a big advantage I would mention a swimming pool and gym, which were included into price. The staff is working round the clock and always ready to help and just talk. I felt relaxed and welcomed here. All 5 stars to this place!

  • 5/5 Andre H. 6 years ago on Google
    Clean, comfortable and affordable hostel. It’s conveniently located close to tram and metro stations. Actually I was a bit confused before arrival, as I didn’t know who I’ll be sharing the room with, but when I came to check-in I’ve met my neighbours and felt a big relief. We all spent great time! The manager advised us many places to visit, she told us the way and opening hours. The staff was our real support in the foreign country, thank you guys!

  • 5/5 Ilia G. 5 years ago on Google
    If you are going to stay in Dubai, and you want a relatively affordable hostel that is very comfortable, then choose this place. It was simply amazing. Everything is so clean and staff is cool.

  • 5/5 Bartolomej H. 6 years ago on Google
    Good people, cozy beds and high quality service - that’s how I can briefly describe this place. Good location right in the heart of Dubai close to many must-visit places. In the night there’s amazing view of the night city. I have nothing to complain about At the top hostel and grateful to all the team for making my trip even more enjoyable and pleasant! Thank you.

  • 5/5 Rinat A. 6 years ago on Google
    I've always had positive experiences with the people who work here. I can't give a higher compliment than this, as I avoid larger chain-type hostels these days due to the impersonal nature of the experience in this kind of place in general. The kitchen was a little bit small but adequate if you aren't there with too many people.

  • 5/5 Daniele Martin M. 5 years ago on Google

  • 5/5 Tanvir Ahmed H. 4 years ago on Google
    This is the place to stay when coming to Dubai! Not only are you in the most posh area, but you're getting to stay there at a very reasonable rate, surrounded by awesome people. I went during new years, made lots of new friends, and literally partied into 2018 in the best possible way

  • 3/5 Rouven K. 4 years ago on Google
    Yeah, good hostel. In 66th floor with stunning view. Rooms were good (had double room) - not as luxurious as the pics on the website make you believe, but price is ok. Marina Complex is nice - but you will need a lot of Time to get to the airport (1.5h) or to the old city (1h). Overall ok. No Card payment accepted...

  • 5/5 Arsham M. 4 years ago on Google
    The location is awsome. Very close to the lovely Marinal walk. It's a clean organised and well-maintained hostel.

  • 1/5 Summer Ying W. 4 years ago on Google
    Be careful!! The hostel has been shut down since 16th Feb due to missing license. This is what I was told by the security guard downstairs when I tried to enter the building for check in. Shocking... I had never been informed by the hostel when I booked it on its official website. Very irresponsible!!

  • 1/5 Noriyuki K. 4 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Book with Agoda. When I found the entrance and tried to enter, I was told that the hotel was already closed. I'm sorry ... The money was paid with the card, but there seems to be no refund. I felt like I saw a bad side of Dubai. Don't make a reservation if you make a mistake. (Original) アゴダで予約。 入り口を見つけて入ってみたらそのホテルはもうクローズしたよと言われました。 お気の毒に、、、みたいな顔をされました。 カードでお金も払い済みでしたが返金される模様もなさそうです。 ドバイの嫌な一面を見たなーという感じでした。 間違えても予約はしないでおきましょう。
