Palazzo Versace

A luxury hotel from world-famous fashion house, with views of Dubai Creek

You hear “Versace”, you think of luxury, right? Palazzo Versace is one of only two resorts in the world exclusively licensed by the premium Italian design house.

Throughout this beautiful resort, which is located in Al Jaddaf near Downtown Dubai, you’ll find more than 200 hotel rooms and suites all designed, tailor-made and decorated by Versace, so your stay is one that will be draped in exclusivity.

Take your pick from three massive outdoor swimming pools, the mosaic design in each of which is completely hand-crafted, with the area lined by palm trees and flowers. There are also stunning views out over the Creek.

But once you’re done gawking at the extravagant, Grecian decoration, there are plenty of brilliant restaurants and bars to check out at Palazzo Versace.

Starting off with one of the city’s best live music venues, the hotel is home to the first-ever bar operated by legendary composer, producer and conductor Quincy Jones. Q’s Bar and Lounge specialises in bringing international acts to its stage. There’s hardly a night that goes by where there’s not a brilliant act entertaining the audience. A must-try.

If you fancy some chilled out al fresco eats, Gazebo’s poolside location offers up a laid-back shisha lounge with Moroccan and Lebanese mezze.

Meanwhile, Italian eatery Vanitas serves up Mediterranean fine dining cuisine in a heavily Roman-inspired, candlelit setting and Enigma specialises in Persian cuisine.

A stay at this hotel will be suitably fancy, as you’d expect from an established upmarket fashion house.
