FAQs
Frequently Asked Questions
No, you can give the bag to reception. Pin a note with your name and room to the bag, tell us in the chat, and the finished order is returned to the same desk. That suits a morning at the mall or an early start for a meeting, when waiting in the room is the last thing you want.
- The driver comes within the hour
- Useful if you are out at the mall or the beach
- You get a message when the bag is back
Write the hotel name, your own name and room, and what you are sending. +971 50 384 1660 reaches Laundrykhalas, not the hotel desk, and the reply carries the price and a time. If you are booking for a family, say how many people are staying, as it helps us size the bag.
- For example: 5 shirts, 1 suit, a 6kg bag
- The total is agreed before collection
- Mention any rush for a flight
Within the same day if the driver has it before 12 noon. Afterwards it follows the 24-hour schedule, returned to reception on a hanger. Say so in the chat if the suit is needed for a particular event, and we plan the route around it.
- Two-piece suit AED 50, three-piece AED 60
- Press only, jacket AED 25
- Latest evening return is 11 pm

- Listed as built in 1999
- Same address, same pickup
Better not in the room. Use the laundry service listed at reception, since washing by hand in a hotel bathroom is not usual practice, or if you prefer a different cleaner on your own schedule, our pickup works through WhatsApp.

- Towels and swimwear included
- Back within 24 hours
Practice differs between hotels, so ask reception. We do not need a special bag: any bag or pillowcase works, and we weigh it before pricing. A full weekend of family clothes usually lands between 6kg and 12kg.

- Hand it to the driver or the desk
- Free pickup from AED 30
You do not need to walk to one. Our driver collects from the lobby, the work is done at our plant in the city, and it is delivered back to the hotel the same day or the next. Guests at Le Royal Meridien next door use the same service.

- Blazer AED 40
- Kandura or silk tie AED 15
