Just read it and means that the person with the card eats free if there is a full paying person with them..hence 50% discount..So not off full table bill Well spotted and its just my husband and I so yes 50% off the bill between us, if there are more people dining with you then it still only applies to the two of you or its a sliding scale, don't know as we only go on our own!

Thanks Quicksilver6, will have a look at this. Is it just a discount off brunches or if you go to any of the restaurants at any time (at any Rotana) 50% as well? Any Rotana - not just brunches but we have used it at other Rotana's in different restaurants, evening meals etc. - you also accrue points, so if you stay at Rotana hotels, you get points but we just mainly use it for the food/brunches!! enjoy!

That's true, I was probably thinking about buy five coffees get one free, stamp on the card, Jumeriah Sirius, Nail Spa points, Amber Points, that sort of thing :) Is the 800dhs a one off payment or every year? edited by Pomegranate on 06/02/2011 Its every year but OMG its worth it. Pay 850 - get 250 back in voucher to spend where-ever = 600 - at 199 AED each at the brunches, you would only need to go 3 times to re-coup you money back! then like I said every time you go, flash you card at any Rotana and you get 50% off the bill. I love to save a few bucks or two and this is perfect for us!!

Sounds like a good deal, but isn't it a bit weird that you have to pay for their loyalty card?! Most shops and restaurants will happily give them for free! Well, you can't just join it, not pay anything and then expect 50% off the bill every time you go - I don't know of any hotel chains that do that!

One of the best, IMO, is Pergolas at Murooj Rotana... AED199, great food and nice atmosphere. One thats a bit "livelier is Grand Grill at Grand Habtoor. Not to say that Pergolas is quiet...Its not, and particularly if you pop down to Double Deckers afterwards....lol HTH hey captainjacky - hats our favorite too, especially if you have joined Rotana and have the card, its 199 total for the two of us! we love it! Ooh, not got the card.... Tell me more!! But still cracking value, as like you say it includes alcohol. Went again on Friday.... Still feel a bit dodgy now!!!! lol We have done the card 2 years running now, basically the upfront cost is 850 or 800 and afew days later you get your card through the post and also a voucher for (i think) 250 - now if you were to do brunch or any other meal in any Rotana, then its basically 50% off - you need to go about 6 times and then the freebies really kick in - sometimes after being a member for a while, they give vouchers for money off. We've spoken to Rotana staff before saying what a great deal it all is and they totally agree! so although there is the intial outlay, if you know your going to use it even once a month then it more than pays for itslef - do the math! then get one!!
