Raffles Hotel

The striking Egyptian-inspired exterior of Raffles Dubai sits in attractive gardens and enjoys an unbeatable location for exploring Old Dubai.

The glitz of the exterior gives way to a sophisticated interior with a cavernous lobby and stylish rooms and suites. Some rooms have private balconies and the suites include the discreet service of the Raffles butlers and access to the Raffles Club Lounge, where guests enjoy complimentary continental breakfast, all-day beverages and evening canapés in elegant surroundings.

The central Oud Metha location means you don’t have beach access, but the hotel pool offers stylish respite amongst the gardens and the lush palm-shaded Creekside Park is a short stroll away. There are seven restaurants and bars from which to choose – featuring Arabian, Japanese and Italian favourites.

At the top of the pyramid, you can dance the night away at the hotel’s Solitare nightclub.  Or take a signature Raffles afternoon tea at the Raffles Salon.

The Wafi Mall is adjacent to the hotel and you can soak up the atmosphere of Old Dubai in the nearby districts of Deira and Bur Dubai. Raffles Dubai is the perfect choice if impeccable service and a central location are a higher priority for you than the beach.
