Dubai is one of
the most popular tourist destinations in the world both for vacations and for organising
corporate meets and conferences. Whichever purpose you are there for, you would
obviously need a good and comfortable accommodation. Now, the preference for
the location of your hotel will obviously be different as per your purpose. When
on a business trip, it makes more sense to stay in a hotel that’s closer to
your area of work. This will help you save time from travelling everyday from
hotel to office and vice-versa.
If you travel
for vacation, then it is better to select a good hotel close to the Dubai
Airport. This is because this will save your time from travelling to various
places of interest. Tourist attractions are usually all across the city. But if
you choose to stay farther from the airport, you will only end up getting too
deep in the city and travelling from there may not be convenient for you.
Also, the modes
of transportation are more easily available around airport hotels in Dubai.
This is because every day there are many people travelling in and out of Dubai
and almost all of them take a cab from their hotel to the airport or the other
way around. So these cabs are more easily and readily available if you stay in
a hotel that’s near the Dubai Airport.
Hotels near
airports are also quite luxurious yet value for money. You will notice that the
staff is always courteous (not that they aren’t in other hotels!!), and the rooms
are quite comfortable with excellent room service. These hotels also have
tie-ups with airlines and sometimes the transit passengers are also made to stay
in these hotels for convenience sake.
Like any other
hotel, you can find fine dining restaurants within the hotel itself so as to
make it easy for you to enjoy international cuisine. For instance, a hotel like
Holiday Inn Dubai – Al Barsha not only is capable of world class service, but
also quite affordable and near the airport. And being near the airport does not
mean that the hotel is very far from the city centre. Transport connectivity is
good and at least you will stay away from the city’s hustle bustle and enjoy
your stay in Dubai!!
