Laundry & Dry Cleaning at Hyatt Regency Creek Heights.

In the serviced apartments, a family's week of clothes fits a 12kg bag for AED 99. Smaller loads are AED 60 for 6kg, and each kilo over 12 is AED 12. Everything is washed, dried, folded and back at the tower in 24 hours.

Visitors from around the Gulf bring abayas, kanduras and shaylas; others bring office clothes. An abaya is AED 18, a kandura AED 15, a ghutra AED 8 and a shirt AED 15. Hand them over before noon for same-evening return.

Washed your own clothes in the apartment and just want them ironed? A shirt on a hanger is AED 9, a kandura or thobe AED 12, trousers AED 12 and a basic abaya AED 10, back within 24 hours.

For the residences and nearby homes, not hotel rooms, whose bedding is the hotel's own. Bed sheets are AED 18, pillowcases AED 7, blankets AED 30 and duvets AED 50. Linen returns in 24 hours; large duvets in 48.

Weeks of walking between the metro, the clinics and Wafi wear shoes down. Formal shoes and sneakers are AED 55, children's shoes AED 35 and boots AED 85. Allow two to four days.

A standard handbag is AED 45 to clean, a school or children's bag AED 40, a backpack AED 45 and a medium suitcase AED 130. Bags take three to five days, a good fit for longer stays.

Clothes that need a tuck after a long stay, or a new abaya that is too long. Trouser waists start at AED 40, plain hems AED 40 and sleeve shortening from the cuff AED 40. Ready in 48 to 72 hours.

For residents of apartments in and around Dubai Healthcare City. Unlined curtains are AED 20 per square metre, blackout AED 25, regular carpets AED 20 and wool rugs AED 26 per square metre. Three days.

For families staying at Creek Heights for a wedding in the city. Standard gowns start at AED 250 and beaded gowns at AED 450. A wedding gown takes seven to fourteen days, so we can return it before a long stay ends.

For teams running awareness days, school visits and family events in the area. Small mascots are AED 200, medium AED 230 and large AED 250, plus AED 30 per accessory. Three to five days.

A child's comfort toy goes everywhere on a long stay. We clean small toys for AED 55, medium for AED 70 and large for AED 120, back in two to three days.

For residents with removable covers in the apartments or nearby homes. A regular sofa cover is AED 35, a large one AED 40 and cushion covers from AED 10, returned in two to three days.

Leather jackets packed for a winter visit, or a bag that needs reviving. Jackets start at AED 150, leather coats and blazers at AED 130 and wallets or small goods at AED 100. Allow three to five days.
