What they say
Forbes Recommended
Forbes Travel Guide

Also in Condé Nast Traveler.
The interior design is just as elegant — look out for a wall adorned with hundreds of bottles just off the lobby.
Right in the middle
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
Set in Business Bay along the Dubai Canal, the hotel sits a short drive from Downtown landmarks and the Burj Khalifa.
The rooms
Floor-to-ceiling glass frames the Dubai Canal, illuminating cream linens, stitched leather headboards, and televisions hidden in sleek cabinetry.
Pool, hammams, and gym
Bring a swimsuit.
A heated pool rests under palms overlooking the canal, alongside circular marble hammams and window-lined cardio machines.
The spa
Saray Spa draws on Silk Road caravanserais, with private treatment suites, curved relaxation chaises, and a central fountain lounge.
At the table
Vault serves cocktails on the seventy-second floor, and other venues offer lantern-lit Thai dishes and fresh French pastries.
