Reviewer Type: Family With Children
Travel Purpose: leisure
Positive: Staff were exceptionally friendly, helpful and professional. The life guards at the pool are very good at keeping everyone safe without being overly officious. Concierge booked an excursion for us, and they are very quick to get taxis sorted. The Taxis are very expensive, compared to other options, but this is not the hotel's fault. Breakfast buffet selection is good.
Negative: Due to the time of year the Al Bandar hotel was shut a long with it's pool, restaurants and leisure. Restaurant food is average and on the expensive side, drinks are too expensive. Buffet at Samba was small compared to price, there was no ice cream available. Communication of whats on at restaurants and activities needs to be better. The Shangri La website is really poor, most hotels now have their own dedicated website/app that is kept up to date.

Positive: I liked the hotel- but it seems a bit old and outdated. The pool and the lazy river are great and prefect for kids. Overall a good experience but I probably expected more.
