Comprising two iconic towers, the JW Marriott Marquis Dubai is the world’s second tallest hotel (having been knocked off its perch in 2018 by Gevora Hotel, just down the Sheikh Zayed Road) and it’s packed full of cool places to go.
It also has a top location in Business Bay by the Dubai Water Canal and not too far from The Dubai Mall. One of the best things about this hotel is the wide-ranging views, from both rooms and restaurants.
And the comfortable rooms are spacious with large bathrooms.
There are also loads of restaurants, bars and clubs in this trendy hotel. Whatever cuisine you’re after you’re likely to find – from Japanese at Izakaya, Latin American at Hotel Cartagena (which also boasts 360-degree panoramic views from the 72nd floor of the hotel), Canadian at Weslodge Saloon, pub food at Bridgewater Tavern, Italian at Positano or Indian at the newest opening in the hotel – Masala Library by the acclaimed Jiggs Kalra. Don’t miss Vault for stunning views across the city, and if you’re looking to throw some shapes visit US nightclub 1Oak or Lebanese bar Seven Sisters.
After all that partying (and eating) you might need a break so it’s time to head to the luxurious Saray Spa with a traditional hammam, the UAE’s only Dead Sea floatation pool – complete with underwater speakers so they don’t miss a beat – 17 treatment rooms, a state-of-the-art health club and fitness facilities.
JW Marriott Marquis Dubai offers a city break with style.
