Gulf Inn Hotel Al Nasr Formerly Roda Links Al Nasr
3.5/521 Reviews
Bur Dubai
The hotel is small, newly opened, clean and tidy. The breakfast was not very varied, but it was exquisite and delicious. The service was good. There was no change at the museum the next day, and we enthusiastically took us to a nearby shop for the wrong change. Next time I go to this hotel.
Mövenpick Hotel & Apartments Bur Dubai

Bur Dubai
Hotel reception was very welcoming for a midnight (ish) arrival. Apartments are substantial in size with good facilities. The problem is that they allow smoking, even on non-smoking floors, so cigarette smells permeate the apartments and no amount of 'refreshing' spray can eliminate the odour. We had a problem on our last morning where the entire water supply for the apartment cut out mid-shower and wasn't restored for over an hour. The staff organised a free cake for us to celebrate a birthday while staying at the hotel. The promised chocolate hour timings were mis-communicated to us, which was disappointing for our children. Breakfast was a pretty good range with a few multi-cultural options. The on-demand omelette service always had a long line and the restaurant area didn't have enough tables during peak times to accommodate us. Valet parking was available for hotel guests but because the apartments are in a building 100 or so metres away, it was not practical to use for our stay. Overall a pleasant stay but still quite a few service issues for the hotel to improve.
Rove Healthcare City
4.8/576 Reviews
Bur Dubai
One of the best and cleanest hotel I ever stayed in this hotel definitely will return. One downside but wouldn’t affect the 5 stars rating. Is the hotel breakfast everyday the hot food section is the same (curry, potatoes, chicken sausage and turkey bacon) no other variation of hot food. I gave my feedback to the hotel manager and chef like (sautéed veggies, mushroom and some eggs etc) but no one took my feedback seriously!! I guess my next visit wouldn’t be including the hotel breakfast anymore.
Dunes Hotel Apartment Oud Metha
3.9/511 Reviews
Bur Dubai
I stayed for 8 nights in this hotel in Dubai, during a trip to the United Arab Emirates with my wife. The hotel is located in a very quiet area, in the Bur Dubai district, near the Oud Metha metro stations (approximately 800 meters from the hotel) and Dubai Healthcare city (approximately 600 meters). Don't be fooled by the distance from the metro (not too far anyway), also because the metro is not as widespread as in European and American cities, so having a station close to the hotel is really essential (very often in Dubai the metro station can even be several km away). The hotel is truly exceptional! We were assigned a double room which to define as such is an understatement, it was a real suite of around 70 m2 in which there was a mega kitchen-living room with a sofa, two armchairs and a table, TV with home theater system and telephone. The part used as a kitchen was not lacking in anything, there was in fact: fridge with freezer, washing machine, hob, microwave oven, kettle, toaster, crockery and pots, hood and huge table with 4 chairs. But that is not all! In the bedroom (also huge) we had a very comfortable double bed, another TV, a huge built-in wardrobe, a dresser with mirror and lamp and even a touch button with which to signal to the outside the desire not to be disturbed or to request the daily room cleaning. The bathroom was no exception, there was even a bidet (you read that right), as well as a sink, toilet and bathtub with shower. Finally, there was also a hairdryer, while in the bedroom there was also a safe, an iron and an ironing board in a special compartment of the wardrobe. Another happy note is the price, for 8 nights in a double room we paid the equivalent of approximately 520 euros (2027 AED). If you think that's all, you're wrong! Every day you will be provided with a free do-it-yourself breakfast set (instant coffee and herbal teas), two bottles of water and all the bathroom products (soaps, body cream, towels). The icing on the final cake is represented by the swimming pool with hydromassage jets on the first floor of the hotel. The water was very warm and being little frequented by hotel guests it was truly the ideal place to relax. Here too, towels are provided for the deckchairs and there is always a lifeguard present despite the maximum depth being less than 2 metres, while in the small pool (my favourite) the depth was one metre, so it felt like being in a swimming pool a spa rather than a swimming pool. The hotel also offers a paid breakfast service and nearby there is a ”Grandiose” supermarket where you can buy everything at low prices, even hot dishes prepared every day in the food area (which we purchased and heated in the microwave in the room). Daily cleaning at a convenient time (12:00), other
Sitara Hotel Apartment
4.5/57 Reviews
Bur Dubai
Fabulous hotel with extremely well appointed apartments with fully functional kitchen. Small onsite restaurant offers a comprehensive breakfast with a varied buffet. Eggs are cooked to order by competent chefs. Lunch and evening meals are available on demand. The one bedroom apartment was massive with high quality fittings and presented in excellent condition. The daily housekeeping was exceptional. There is a rooftop swimming pool with lifeguard in attendance. Being in a low rise area the pool has sun all day. All staff members were exceptional with a can do attitude. Easy access from the airport with many low cost dining options within walking distance. The main bus stop is opposite the hotel with a 5min ride to the metro station. Taxis are freely available as the Eagle Restaurant adjacent to the hotel is the main dining venue for drivers 24/7. Excellent value hotel.

More about Dubai

Introduction to Dubai: A Confluence of Traditions and Futurism

Located on the Eastern coast of the Arabian Peninsula, in the south west corner of the Arabian Gulf, Dubai is one of the seven emirates that make up the United Arab Emirates. Known for its opulent architecture, luxury shopping and vibrant nightlife, Dubai offers an irresistible blend of traditional Arabic culture and futuristic innovation. This city is home to the tallest building in the world, the Burj Khalifa, and it boasts an artificial island in the shape of a palm tree, the Palm Jumeirah!

Tips for Travelling to Dubai

Dubai International Airport, one of the busiest airports in the world, serves as the primary gateway to the city. The Dubai Metro, taxis, and ride-hailing services like Uber are commonly used to navigate the city.

Visa policies vary depending on nationality, so travellers are advised to check the UAE embassy website in their respective countries. Credit cards are widely accepted and the official language is Arabic, but English is commonly used, especially in business and by the large expatriate population.

As for traditions, remember that the UAE is a Muslim country and visitors should dress modestly in public. Also, the consumption of alcohol is regulated and is typically only allowed within licensed venues.

Unforgettable Attractions in Dubai

Dubai's iconic skyline is dominated by architectural marvels like the Burj Khalifa, Burj Al Arab and the Palm Jumeirah. Shoppers will find their paradise in the Dubai Mall and the traditional Gold and Spice Souks. For a dose of culture, one can visit the Dubai Museum, Al Fahidi Historic District or the stunning Jumeirah Mosque. The adventurous can explore the vast Arabian Desert on a safari.

Weather in Dubai and the Best Time to Visit

Dubai has a hot desert climate with extremely hot summers (June to September) with temperatures frequently reaching 41°C (105°F), and warm winters (December to March) averaging 24°C (75°F). The most comfortable time to visit is from November to April.

As for clothing, light, breathable fabrics are recommended due to the heat. However, it's also wise to carry a light jacket or shawl, as indoor areas can be heavily air-conditioned.

Selecting the Right Hotel in Dubai

Dubai's hotels are as varied and impressive as its skyline. To stay near main attractions, consider the Armani Hotel inside the Burj Khalifa.

For a food-centric stay, Pierchic offers gourmet dining and is located near various eateries.

For luxury accommodation, the Burj Al Arab is an iconic choice, while budget travellers can consider Rove Downtown, which offers great value.

Business travellers might appreciate the convenient location of Dusit Thani near the business district. Atlantis The Palm offers highly Instagrammable views and interiors. Near the airport, the Dubai International Hotel offers convenient and comfortable lodging.
