Looking for input on these 3 Dubai hotels (listed in thread)

Grosvenor House, Armani, Ritz DIFC. I've booked all three, for upcoming stays. Will I regret any of these choices? Previously I have only stayed at the Burj al-Arab which is...something, but not to my taste.

no, Armani is my favourite of the three, assuming you want to be in the center of the city...

I just really liked the room product at Armani. It was a favourite downtown hotel of my site inspections...

As I'm right all 3 not in a good location for a leisure trip, not much around with exemption of shopping and sone more or less interesting sights.
