Dear Rove team,
I’d like to start by sharing my positive thoughts about your hotel. As an advocate for whole-food plant based diet and the environment, I truly appreciate Rove’s efforts to be eco-friendly. From the wooden keycards to the plastic-free service, I feel you’ve created a space that aligns with my values. The variety of plant-based options at the breakfast table is also a highlight. Not to mention, the simple, with simplistic, minimalist and yet beautiful design of the hotel makes it such a pleasant place to stay.
As a regular guest (or as you call us, Roveres), I feel like your team knows me well. You understand my preferences, and it honestly makes me feel like I’m at home, even though I’m far from it. So, Rove, you’ve really won me over on that front.
Now, let me share a few thoughts on areas for improvement, with some gentle suggestions.
First, while I love the minimalist and on-demand approach to amenities, I noticed something with the toothpaste kits. I really like that they come in paper packaging, but it would be great if the toothbrushes and toothpaste were separated. For my current stay, I received four toothbrush kits for three nights—way more than I needed. This is not only wasteful, but it also creates unnecessary environmental impact when you multiply this across the hotel. My suggestion would be: for a stay like mine, one toothbrush and multiple tubes of toothpaste would be more than enough. It’s a small change, but I think it could make a big difference. (I have picture to show what I’m trying to say here).
Second, I noticed the toilet paper used seems to be made from virgin pulp paper. Given Rove’s environmentally-conscious image, I think switching to recycled paper would be a great move. To avoid any negative perceptions, perhaps you could invest in attractive, eco-friendly packaging that highlights this change. It would make a statement to your guests that Rove is truly committed to sustainability.
Third, and most importantly for me, is the air quality. Given Dubai’s climate, the air conditioning is essential, but combined with fabric-covered furniture, it can create dust and particulates that settle on the surfaces—something I notice every morning. This isn’t just a cosmetic issue; it could affect guests’ respiratory health and general well-being. I strongly recommend considering air purifiers in each room. Not only would this improve the guest experience, but you could also market it as a health-conscious feature. Perhaps you could partner with a brand and offer a discount on these purifiers, creating a unique selling point for future stays. (I have sample picture)
Despite these suggestions, I still see Rove as my “home away from home” in Dubai. You’ve made a lasting impression, and I will continue to return.
Kind regards, Samuel G. Haile
P.S. I’ve been a loyal guest since Rove first opened, returning nearly every month for the last two and a half years. This time, I decided to share my thoughts after coming to Dubai for some much-needed rest and reflection away from the stress of my routine back home...
