FAQs
Frequently Asked Questions
Listings mention hotel laundry, and you are free to use ours instead. We are a separate service with our own prices. Leave the bag at reception with your booking name and room number. Large bags are welcome, and the weight is simply added to the quote.
- Pickup arrives within the hour
- The price is agreed in the chat first
- The clean order returns to the desk
Message +971 50 384 1660 with the hotel name, your name and your room number. The reply gives a price and the time the driver will come. If you are unsure which service suits a garment, describe it in the chat and we will suggest one.
- A short list is enough
- You can add items before the driver arrives
- Pickup is free if the order is AED 30 or more
Often tonight, if the car collects it ahead of noon. Otherwise it comes back tomorrow, treated for the stain before cleaning. A rough list is enough to get a price, and details can be corrected at pickup.
- Kandura: AED 15
- Pressed only: AED 12
- We send a photo if a mark may stay
Washing is AED 60 for a 6kg bag, or AED 99 for 12kg. Dry cleaning is charged per garment and quoted first. Delivery goes to the same entrance or desk as the pickup unless you say otherwise.
- Shorts AED 12
- Bath towel AED 6
- Each kilo above 12kg: AED 12
A typical dry-cleaned piece is between AED 12 and AED 65. Guests at Excelsior Hotel Downtown pay what you pay. Writing in the chat keeps everything in one thread, from the quote to the delivery message.
- Dress or blazer: AED 40
- Abaya: AED 18
- Polo shirt: AED 15
No, washing by weight costs less. Dry cleaning is for suits, silk and delicate pieces, and the extra cost pays for careful handling. Clothes come back in the same bag or on hangers, ready to put away.
- Wash 6kg: AED 60
- Dry clean one shirt: AED 15
- Press one shirt: AED 9
No. The same quote applies on every day of the week and at every hour. We add nothing for fuel or distance. Anything left in a pocket is returned with the clothes.

- Back within a day
Al Ghurair Centre is four minutes away by car. Dubai Creek is about ten, according to listings, and the Al Rigga metro stations are an 11 to 15 minute walk. Prices are the same for every hotel in the district, so there is nothing to compare.
- DXB is 10 to 15 minutes by taxi
- Nearby restaurants are minutes on foot
- We collect from the entrance or reception
Most food stains can be treated, and we say so honestly when one is stubborn. Oil from mandi, sauce from grills and coffee are common, and early treatment gives the best chance. If plans change, let us know in the chat and the time moves with them.
- Kandura: AED 15 dry cleaned
- Abaya: AED 18, delicate abaya AED 35
- A photo is sent if a mark may remain

Grand Central Hotel on Al Rigga Road
Grand Central Hotel is on Al Rigga Road in Al Muraqqabat, Deira, close to the Al Rigga metro stations and Al Ghurair Centre. Booking sites list a restaurant, a coffee shop, a pool, a spa and a fitness centre, with room counts that vary between about 114 and 163. Guests often eat out in the nearby restaurants, and send us kanduras, shirts and bags of everyday washing. Listings describe a pool, a spa and a fitness centre, though they disagree on the details, so we only describe what guests actually send us. Listings mention a continental breakfast served from 6 to 10 am for a fee, so mornings here start early, and many guests drop off a bag on the way out.
