What we love: upgrade to a Club room for additional treats and luxuries 

This Autograph Collection hotel has some 446 rooms to pick from, with plenty of different layouts to suit each party of guests. 

Travelling with a friend? Tower Rooms can have two single beds. Holidaying with teens? Then how about connecting two Family Suites? Or couples on a romantic holiday or Dubai honeymoon can pick a Club Oceanfront King which is situated on a higher floor of the main building for enhanced views, plus all the extras included with Club Level – like Lounge access, free cocktails, continental breakfast, afternoon tea and evening nibbles.  

As standard in all rooms and suites expect air con, a private bathroom, free WiFi and hot drink-making facilities.  

What we love: The Underground Pub with its pub grub, quiz nights and draught beers 

The variety at Habtoor Grand extends to its food and drink options, making it a popular hotel for a Dubai all-inclusive stay.  

For those not on all-inclusive or full board, the hotel is just a ten minute stroll from The Walk – tipped as one of the best places in Dubai to dine out.  

Luciano’s at Habtoor Grand offers Italian favourites, while The Grand Grill is a South African inspired steakhouse. There are fusion dishes on the menu at Andreea's and a sunset cocktail at Horizon Poolside Bar is a ‘must’. Kids love the American favourites on the lunch menu at Sauce.  

What we love: The free shuttle bus to the Mall of Emirates, the Dubai Outlet Mall and Nakheel Mall 

This huge resort complex has plenty within its borders for travellers who love to simply ‘fly and flop’. Or for those that like to get out and explore there is lots to see on Habtoor Grand’s doorstep. 

Facilities on site include a jogging track, a 24-hour fitness centre and three swimming pools – one of which has waterslides. 

The kids club for children boasts its own playground and has activities in the day, like craft workshops, as well as the evening, including movie nights. 

At the Elixir Spa guests are treated to authentic treatments, and the resort boasts tennis and squash courts.  

In Habtoor Grand’s neighbourhood there are plenty of other beaches to soak up the sun, and the resort is within a few miles of The Palm Fountain and Burj Al Arab for popular sightseeing.
