Luxury Hotels
The finest accommodations in Dubai.
Burj Al Arab Jumeirah
The world's most iconic hotel occupies its own private island, rising 321 metres in the shape of a sail. Every room is a duplex suite with floor-to-ceiling windows, private butler service, and access to a fleet of Rolls-Royce cars. The ultimate statement in Dubai luxury.
Atlantis The Royal
The 2023 ultra-luxury flagship property on Palm Jumeirah raised the bar for global resort hotels. Sky pools suspended between towers, Michelin-starred restaurants, an exclusive beach club, and an on-property nightclub make this the most talked-about hotel of recent years.
Armani Hotel Dubai
Personally designed by Giorgio Armani inside the Burj Khalifa, this intimate 160-room boutique hotel is the most prestigious address in Dubai. The Armani Prive lifestyle lounge, Armani/Spa, and fine dining complement the understated Italian luxury throughout.
