Dubai is a city that is fast becoming a top tourist destination. With a warm weather climate, great infrastructure and of course an abundance of culture and romance this city is going to go from strength to strength. Many people that visit the stunning city return home telling friends and family about the marvellous hotels they have stayed at. The hotels are all secure and in fantastic positions, with the ocean, bars and restaurants all in safe walking distance. Now all you have to do is decide which 4 star hotel Dubai has to offer is the right one for you.
Dubai is one of the Seven United Arab Emirates and some would say the most progressed. Tall high rise buildings, beaches, and spectacular clubs confirm this. The city lies on the Persian Gulf, a particular warm, blue and flat sea which makes it perfect for water activities.
One reason for the destination's growth might be because Dubai is positioned almost in middle of the world, granting easy access from Europe and usually a stopover in most major flights to and from Africa. The city's financial boom has allowed the Dubai Municipality to spend a lot on keeping these fantastic facilities. Some of this wealth has been set aside to build man made islands where luxurious hotels, conference centres and top end real estate can be found.
The climate in Dubai can sometimes reach 46 degrees in the summer months but it's advised that travellers do not travel during this time, which falls from early May to late September. The rest of the year guests will find warm summer days ranging from 24- 35 degrees. Sometimes the odd chilly desert night will fall below 16 degrees.
Dubai is not just a new tourist destination; the city has lots to offer in the way of culture and entertainment. The Old Dubai can be explored on a Dubai Creek Cruise where the old city custom buildings, defence holds and pieces of the old ship yard can be found, a true way to see how Dubai has developed. Another fantastic way to see how the city has grown is by hot air balloon or a short trip on the Cessna 208 Seaplane.
The many air-conditioned malls and designer shopping centres show another side to this place. It shows that this city is in close competition to become one of the best cities in the world, and the locals are pushing the city all the way. The Dubai locals want this statement to be true by putting in every last bit of effort, as can be seen in the beautiful infrastructure and attention to detail. For example the MOE (Mall of Emirates) boasts a ski dome, where it can be +40 degrees outside but -4 inside. All snow clothing and equipment is provided by the centre.
Each 4 star hotel Dubai has on offer is luxurious, comfortable and will accommodate even the most discerning guest. The guest will find themselves greeted by the happy concierge who will wish you a pleasant stay, organise valet parking if needed and take your bags through to the front desk. The lobbies and foyers are all decorated with fine finishes and superb taste.
Once checked in, the bell boy will take your luggage to the room, open the door and show you the many accessories included in the room. In your room you will find a sea or city view from your very own balcony complete with loungers, low table and mini bar.
