 "This Sheraton overlooks Dubai Creek and is a convenient choice for travelers wanting to be based near Dubai's older neighborhoods." Full review
 "As the oldest hotel on the creek, the Sheraton opened to great fanfare in the early 1970s, but it's showing its age." 
 "About as close to the Creek as you can get, it’s as if you’re right on top of the shimmering water when you’re in the elegant rooms at this striking hotel." 
 "This old-fashioned five-star enjoys a good central location, a scenic creekside setting, opulent public areas... and an unusual wedge-shaped atrium dotted with palm trees." 
 "Using a combination of beige sandstone, teal blue glass and multileveled towers, the building mirrors the constantly evolving skylines of this Middle Eastern urban oasis." Full review
 "The Sheraton Dubai Creek has views of Dubai’s foundational waterway and the ancient-looking dhows that still ply its waters."
