We had the chance to have a 24 hour layover in Dubai. This hotel is close to the airport and offered us a hotel-owned van with driver to tour the city. The cost was only about $30/hour which is less than most tour buses. We put 4 adults in the back and got to every spot we wanted to see... more

Check in: we arrived at 05:20 in the morning after the Emirates overnight flight from Hong Kong, thinking we would have a problem getting room access but it was no... more

Located about ten minutes from the airport, it has everything you could want in a hotel. The rooms are large and well appointed (e.g., desk with good lighting, DVD player, an alarm clock which also functions as a speaker for your MP3 player). The sound-proofing between rooms was also good - the only noise I heard was the occasional door... more
