Where to Stay in Dubai
Dubai is to the Middle East: a capitalist jewel buzzing with activity. Most visitors to the region stop here for at least a day to browse the shops, eat in the restaurants and soak up the atmosphere of a city , wealth and a general air of self-satisfied confidence. Split into two by a long creek, a water taxi is an ideal starting point for orientation purposes and an opportunity to admire the modern, palatial architecture, the hallmark of a successful Arab state. Even the traditional souks that attract thousands of visitors each year are packed with up-to-the-minute gadgets.
There is an abundance of excellent hotels in Dubai, it is the only place in the world that has a 7 star hotel named Burj Al Arab and there are some of the most amazing hotel/tourism projects the world has ever seen which should be open within the next couple of years.
Dubai itself is very compact, with excellent roads and good value for money taxis and so location isn't really all that important. You do though have to choose the location that you prefer, and you are really presented with three or possibly four different options.
The beach area is very popular with business people and tourists alike, and truly is a wonderful place to stay, as you will be able to enjoy hotels that have all the business facilities you require and yet still offers splendid views of the Arabian Sea, it can be very refreshing during a hectic schedule to have breakfast outside, breathing in the wonderful clean sea air, and over looking beautiful gardens, the beach and the Arabian Sea. As most hotels along Jumeirah Beach are only around a 20 minute ride from the city centre you really can enjoy the best of both worlds.
Your choice of hotel will depend on the options on offer by your tour packager, the location and type of facilities that your require and of course your budget.
