Taj Dubai

Taj Dubai

10/10 Excellent
"Wonderful hotel with impeccably clean and beautiful rooms, great food and a fantastic staff. From the moment you walk into the hotel you feel the luxury of every space and the warmth and kindness of the staff. We were treated to an upgraded room and a delicious chocolate cake for our anniversary celebration. We had celebrated our anniversary there the year before and loved it so much we just had to return despite the recent political turmoil. Our second experience was even better than the first and we can't wait to return next year. Treat yourself to this fantastic hotel, you'll enjoy every moment!"

"The hotel is absolutely gorgeous. Everything is kept immaculate, from the room to the lobby and everything in between. The staff are all incredibly friendly, the amount of dining options is mind blowing, and the best part is that the whole experience is very affordable, especially when comparing to anything you would get in Europe or the United States."

What is a historic hotel like in Dubai?
Historic hotels give guests a chance to stay in a building officially recognised with a national historic designation. Historic hotels throughout the world have had many former lives and uses, such as castles, stately homes, palaces or even pubs, lodges, old police stations or skyscrapers — any place of special interest. These types of hotels in Dubai typically retain original characteristics such as period features or traditional architecture within the guestrooms or public spaces.
What is the difference between a historic hotel and a heritage hotel?
The two are similar. "Historic hotel" is more commonly used in the U.S., while "heritage hotel" is often used in Asia and Europe. Historic hotels tend to emphasise the architecture and actual building. A heritage hotel draws meaning mainly from the place's cultural value and how it inspired the community.
Do historic hotels in Dubai have modern facilities?
Yes, efforts are made to preserve treasured traditions and historic facades, but interiors include modern conveniences and safety features. Tourists who book a stay should expect the popular amenities you'd find in a hotel such as Smart TVs, WiFi and updated bathroom facilities. Booking a historic hotel in Dubai doesn't mean you will stay in a place that's uncomfortable for guests or rundown.
