Hotel
Atlantis The Royal
An ultra-luxury resort on the Palm Jumeirah crescent with sky-high pools, a beachfront, signature restaurants and access to the vast Aquaventure waterpark next door.
A playful 434-room design hotel at One Central near the World Trade Centre, with a rooftop pool, a beer garden, a rooftop lounge and the Monkey Bar.
Good to know
The 25hours brand is known for quirky, story-driven design, and its Dubai hotel at One Central, near the World Trade Centre, takes the theme of the modern nomad. Its 434 rooms and suites are colourful and thoughtfully designed, and the public spaces are lively places to hang out rather than just pass through.
Facilities include a rooftop pool, a spa with a mixed sauna, a gym and e-bikes for rent, and Cinema Akil runs a seasonal outdoor cinema here from November to May. Food and drink are a highlight: ERNST is a Bavarian beer garden, Juña a rooftop shisha lounge, Monkey Bar a sixth-floor bar with Nikkei food, and Nomad Day Bar serves coffee from Nightjar. The World Trade Centre Metro station is close by, making it well placed for both business and sightseeing.
