Yes even in DXB. I once went for medical check up in one of the hospital there on January 2013.Paid for comprehensive but at the lab the the nurse a Filipino woman refused carrying out a test related to prostrate cancer investigation even though it was paid.For up to 4 days she kept on posting me that the Dr to carry out the test on my anus weren't around.When on the 5th day i protested to the the Indian Dr.asking for a refund of 1000 paid for the test-he then directed another Indian lab tech to carry test on me because the Phillipino would not touch the 40yrs black man.I have stopped using the hospital for check-up.Yes even in Dubai!!!

We give Dubai, Europe and whatnot countries the right to treat us like less humans (that we aren't).

If Nigeria held its shiiiiit together, and made the country good and conducive for its citizens, we won't be suffering all these racial taunts everywhere.

Personally, I think Nigerians must take the blindfold off, and realise we are the cause of all our problems. We project racism to the spotlight but dust 'tribalism' and 'religious segregation' (which consumes us) under the carpet.

Until we treat ourselves, and give the world a reason to respect us, they probably won't. Respect is earned!

Let's solve tribalism and religious bias in our country first, before focusing on "racism" as some distraction (or easy escape)... #God bless

They rely on foreign tourists. Broadcast your experience on Trip advisor, Twitter and Facebook and which ever websites people visit to find views and ratings of hotels.

The bad PR will force them to contact you and apologise and will loose them business

It's really so embarrassing and so bad for dis people to treat blacks with disrespect , a friend of mine visited Dubai recently and u can imagine wat happened the Dubai asked him which country my friend was from and he said Bokoharam bokoharam no no no , that was he started yelling , it's crazy honestly. The worst part of it is dey can't do without Nigerians cos we boost their countries , say no to racism

Why wouldn't they? to buttress my point, I got to know about nairaland through google. These people must have read how miscreants come on Nl and call their black women all sorts of unprintable names. Sometimes, i think the disrespect we get is caused by us. He who lives in a glass house shouldn't throw stones.

This shiit happens everyday in Nigeria too, in some large hotels and bars, ladies are not allowed entry if they are unaccompanied. I don't blame the hotel staff, rather I blame the oloshos that came in previously to precipitate this mess. There's no doubt that most of the 'runs-girls' in Dubai are black girls, so one cant really blame the hotel management. Dem nor dey write okpo for face.

Its very easy if only we Nigerians would do the right thing of not patronizing the hotel. I normally stay at marvenpic in Accra Ghana, although i have never experienced this humiliation. Trust in all honesty they just lost a valuable customer.
That's it, no muss no fuss. Nigerians are one of the biggest spenders and patronizers of this hotels so they have no reason what so ever to discriminate against us.

I had a racists experience in Dubai! The part that upset me more is that it was from a Pakistani creep that was employed to clean rooms! The imps refused to clean my apartment for 3 days! When I complained to the Chinese management, she said that it must have been the way I spoke to the attendant! I was incensed!!

It was a festive period, and most hotels were fully booked, so I had to endure the indignity for some more days! God will punish the racist creeps!

The hotel staff at five-star hotel Mövenpick Hotel Jumeirah Beach refused to serve her and showed her the door when she visited the hotel's popular West Beach Bistro & Sports Lounge with her black American friend. The outraged Nigerian said what they did to them reminded her of 1930s America.

"They suspected us of being prostitutes and targeted us solely because of the colour of our skin. I have lived here for 10 years and have never been treated in such a disrespectful and despicable manner." Hannah said

“My friend had just graduated and we were hoping to enjoy a girls’ night out at the bar but came back traumatised. First the waitress refused to serve us and then a security guard ordered us to leave the hotel. At one stage he was ready to engage with us physically which is classified as assault and sexual harassment in UAE. He kept telling us that the bar didn’t allow unaccompanied women. I found it strange because there were several tables occupied by women. When I pointed to them, he said he was merely following orders.” Hannah said

Hannah said as things got heated, the bar manager intervened.

“I showed him my business card. When he saw it, his face contorted in panic as it dawned on him that they had racially profiled the wrong people. But instead of making amends, he said the security guard had asked us to leave as some black women had come in earlier and solicited their guests. I was stunned. Just because some black women had approached their guests, the hotel assumed we were also prostitutes.”

Hannah said, realizing their mistake, the hotel tried to make amend but they were so humiliated they had to leave

“On the way out, I stopped at the front desk and sought to speak to the duty manager but he refused to meet us. Instead a female staff came out and tried to hush up the matter saying ‘Obama is the President of US’ as if that had anything to do with us. I want the management of the hotel to realise that this isn’t 1930. This is 2015. You cannot walk up to random black women and tell them you will not serve them because they are black. I am completely flabbergasted that in this day and age the policy of an international chain is to not allow people into their bars because of the colour of their skin,” she said

Hannah, who heads an events management company later wrote to management of the hotel, asking for an apology. And they did apologize to her, calling it an unfortunate incident.

"The incident occurred purely due to the misunderstanding of the employees and we would like to clarify that there is no such management policy existent in the hotel. Mövenpick Hotel Jumeirah Beach welcomes and respect each and every guest and this incident in no way reflects our true standards of service. An official apology letter from the hotel management and employees involved has also been sent to the guest.” the management said
