Dusit Thani Dubai
133 Sheikh Zayed Road

The upscale Dusit Thani Dubai is conveniently located in the heart of Dubai's financial district. Sitting on the busy Sheikh Zayed Road, the hotel is close to several business and tourist sites, and a 10-minute walk to the metro. Many of the 321 rooms feature Burj Khalifa views and all have contemporary Thai-inspired decor and include flat-screen TVs, minibars, and free Wi-Fi. The hotel has five remarkable restaurants and bars; including an international buffet restaurant (with breakfast only included in some packages) as well as an authentic Thai restaurant, 24-hour grocer/cafe, terrace bar, and Japanese-themed bar. The five meeting rooms cater to business travelers, while leisure guests enjoy the free shuttles to Dubai attractions. As an alternative, the nearby Carlton Downtown Hotel features additional facilities like a full-service spa and nightclub.

Winchester Grand Hotel Apartments
Al Mankhool 10b St, Bur Dubai

The Winchester Grand Hotel Apartments is a mid-range property in a residential area of the historic Bur Dubai district. It's more tucked-away streets than towering high-rises here, but the hotel is well-located near the airport, and a 10-minute walk from BurJuman mall and metro station. The 112 apartment-style rooms have kitchenettes, living, and dining areas, but they're bland, a bit dated, and showing some wear. A rooftop pool gets lots of sun and there are a small gym and sauna. For those that don't want to cook themselves, an on-site restaurant serves buffet meals. Wi-Fi is free throughout, while parking requires a fee. It's worth comparing rates with Golden Sands Hotel Apartments, which is less shabby and has three pools. 

Holiday Inn Express Dubai Jumeirah
Corner Of Jumeirah Road and 60 Road, Al Mina, Jumeirah

The Holiday Inn Express Dubai Jumeirah is a budget hotel located across from the DryDocks, about a 20-minute drive from downtown. It’s not a touristy area, but the hotel has a free shuttle to Jumeirah Beach. Business and leisure travelers are drawn here for the affordable rates and clean rooms. The 193 rooms are contemporary albeit generic, featuring warm earth tones, flat-screen TVs, mini-fridges, and kettles. There's no pool here, but the property has an all-day restaurant serving free hot breakfasts, lobby bar, and tiny gym. Also on-site are a 24-hour business center, two meeting rooms, and free Wi-Fi and parking. It's worth comparing rates with Al Khoory Executive Hotel - Al Wasl, which has more cheerful rooms and is closer to the beach.

Park Hyatt Dubai
Baniyas Rd

The Park Hyatt is an exclusive, sprawling property adjacent to one of Dubai’s top golf courses. Everything here is top-notch, from the spa to the pool area to the restaurants and the services. Its 225 rooms are all stylish and spacious, with elegant Mediterranean decor sprinkled with Moorish details, and upscale bathrooms featuring deep standalone tubs. The hotel’s location is a quiet oasis in bustling Dubai -- but most attractions are a drive away through busy roads. 

Citymax Hotel Bur Dubai
Kuwait Street, Mankhool Rd

The 691 room Citymax Bur Dubai is part of the budget-friendly, mid-range Citymax Hotels chain and attracts both tourists and business travelers. Rooms are comfortable, but not opulent, and there's a rooftop pool and a few restaurants on-site. The surrounding area is mainly residential with cheap and casual dining options; guests wanting to visit more upscale establishments will need to take a taxi or walk 15-minutes to the nearest metro station.

Citymax Hotel Al Barsha at the Mall
Al Barsha 1, Behind Mall of Emirates

Part of the Citymax Hotels chain, Al Barsha is a three-pearl property with 376 rooms. Guest rooms are on the small side and have generic decor, but are clean and well-maintained, and come with flat-screen TVs and mini-fridges. Guests in the lower floors may be disrupted by noise from the multiple bars and restaurants downstairs. There's a free shuttle to the beach, an outdoor pool, a fitness center, and multiple dining options. Overall, it's a good pick for anyone traveling on a budget who doesn't mind being away from the beach and the city center in exchange for lower rates. 

Amwaj Rotana
Al Sayorah St., Jumeirah Beach Residence

Amwaj Rotana is a luxury hotel located on the lively boardwalk of Jumeirah Beach -- aka The Walk -- in New Dubai. The property’s private beach is just couple of minutes' walk from the hotel, and can be seen from all 301 rooms, all of which have private balconies. On-site amenities include a modern fitness center, three restaurants with Japanese, international, and Italian cuisine, an adult pool, a kids' pool, and babysitting services -- all of which make this hotel a solid win for couples and families. If on-site dining options are unnecessary, the Hawthorn Hotel & Suites by Wyndham is a close alternative with lower prices -- guests will remain on The Walk and have direct beach access.

Carlton Palace Hotel
Al Maktoum Rd, Deira

Situated on a bland street near Dubai Creek in the neighborhood of Deira, the 212-room Metropolitan has opulent decor in the common spaces dating from another era (the '80s, perhaps?), and the look may be too gaudy for some tastes. Still, rooms are comfortable enough, if a bit small and staid. There’s little street life in the immediate area, though livelier sections of Deira are close by. Though the hotel needs some updates, especially in the gym and pool areas, acute complaints are few and have focused on an excessive amount of noise emanating from the first-floor disco. Higher rooms are recommended.

Landmark Grand
Al Riqqa Road, Deira

The 153 rooms at this mid-range property are generally clean and modern, thought there are the occasional complaints about issues like leaky faucets, lingering smoke smells, and loud air-conditioning units. The property is situated in an unglamorous, slightly postindustrial section of the neighborhood of Deira, close to a large shopping mall and within walking distance of many restaurants and bars (a welcome convenience for some given that the hotel does not serve alcohol). The Landmark has a tiny, somewhat cramped rooftop pool and a small fitness center with a handful of machines.

Flora Grand Hotel
Al Rigga Rd., 26b Street, 28; Al Muraqqabat; Deira

Both tourists and business travelers looking to stay in the heart of Deira would do well at the four-pearl Flora Grand Hotel. Just a few metro stops from the airport and from the new upscale center of Dubai, the hotel is a notch above other hotels in the Deira vicinity thanks to a recent renovation. Rooms are modern and clean, with hardwood floors and views of the city, and facilities include a spa, outdoor pool, fitness center, state-of-the-art meeting and presentation rooms, and a restaurant and cafe. It's worth noting, though, that the restaurant does not serve alcohol (but several other restaurants are within easy walking distance) and the pool area might prove to be a bit small and lacking in loungers for families with young children.
