Hotels and resorts in Dubai
From landmark beach resorts to design-led city hotels and heritage stays by the creek.
Our hotel picks cover every part of the city and every budget band. Several high-profile hotels are closed for renovation in 2026, including Burj Al Arab (until late 2027), Armani Hotel Dubai and Park Hyatt Dubai; we have left them out until they reopen.
