What they say
Also in Forbes Travel Guide.
The Dubai hotel rooms and suites wear a palette of sand, coffee and soft browns accentuated with occasional pops of color, and dark wood furniture adding warmth.
In a lively part of town
Where things happen: restaurants, shops, people.
Set along Al Mamsha Street, the grounds sit moments from The Walk at JBR and the waterfront promenades of Dubai Marina.
The rooms
Sea-facing rooms and suites feature warm sand tones and private balconies overlooking landscaped gardens, outdoor pools, and the Arabian Gulf.
The pools
Bring a swimsuit.
Three temperature-controlled outdoor pools wind through the gardens, including an expansive main pool with a swim-up bar.
The gym
Cardio machines and weight stations look out across the palm gardens through floor-to-ceiling windows.
Restaurant
Royal Club Lounge
The lounge opens onto a garden terrace, serving daily buffet breakfasts, afternoon tea, and evening drinks.
At the table
Dining terraces and garden pavilions spread across the grounds, serving everything from wood-fired Italian dishes to contemporary Indian fare.
How it began
Opened in 1994, the property established an expansive garden footprint along the shoreline long before Dubai Marina grew around it.
