★★★★★ · DIFC & Sheikh Zayed Road · Luxury
A 42-storey tower on Sheikh Zayed Road, with a pool facing Burj Khalifa, rooms of 45 sq m for up to 4 guests and a Vietnamese and Chinese restaurant.
Shangri-La Dubai is a five-star hotel in a 42-story tower on Sheikh Zayed Road, minutes from The Dubai Mall, City Walk and Coca-Cola Arena. The hotel has 302 rooms and suites, and the tower also has 126 apartments. Most rooms face the Downtown skyline and Burj Khalifa, or the Gulf.
What draws guests here is the Burj Khalifa view. The outdoor pool on floor 4 faces Burj Khalifa directly, and floor 42 has a rooftop bar, Horizon 42. There are also Picture-Perfect Rooms: corner rooms with a day bed facing Burj Khalifa, in limited number. The Financial Centre metro station is about 450 meters from the hotel.
The entry-level room, Deluxe, is 45 sqm, with a rain shower and a separate bathtub. A room with a king bed fits up to 4 guests, with a foldout bed, and a twin room up to 3. This suits a couple with two young children. A family wanting more space can book two interconnecting Deluxe rooms (90 sqm). Horizon Club rooms include lounge access on floor 41, with breakfast and evening cocktails.
The outdoor pool is open 6:00 AM–8:00 PM, and children are allowed only with a parent. Horizon Club and suite guests also have an indoor infinity pool on floor 42, facing Burj Khalifa. There is a gym open 24 hours for guests, tennis and squash courts, a jacuzzi, and the Chi, The Spa, with treatments using Asian techniques. The hotel offers babysitting.
The food leans towards Asia: Shang Palace serves Cantonese food, and Hoi An serves Vietnamese food from a full Vietnamese kitchen. Dunes Café is an all-day restaurant, with a buffet and a menu, and also suits a family meal. By the pool is ikandy ultralounge, with brunch and live performances. There are 4 restaurants and 3 bars, and 24-hour room service.
The downside: there is no beach, and the hotel sits on Sheikh Zayed Road, a busy highway. The Dubai Mall is a few minutes away, or one metro stop. The tower also has apartments and offices, so the lobby feels less intimate than a boutique hotel.
