4* Rui Dubai
Overview
Rui Dubai
The Riu Dubai shows off a beachfront plot, three pools and a slide-filled splash park.
You can chill out in this hotel’s fancy spa* and chow down in the four restaurants – the latter plates up international, Asian, Italian and Lebanese grub.
This place can bury its toes into a velvet-soft beach on the Dubai Islands, a 20-minute drive from a gold market and an oldy-worldy souk. Add another 10 to your journey and you can reach the city’s crowning glory, the 160-storey-tall Burj Khalifa.
If you are travelling to Dubai with children, you'll need to be aware that Dubai authorities have a mandatory ruling that children are accompanied by an adult in the pool. It's important to always follow any mandatory requirement in Dubai.
Please be aware that the lead passenger on your booking must be at least 18 years old, but if the booking includes a meal plan with alcoholic drinks, then the lead passenger needs to be at least 21 years old.
You may be asked for a credit card on arrival, to cover any ad hoc purchases. This hotel may also take a deposit, which can vary depending on the length of stay. It will be refunded after your stay, provided no damage has been caused to your room or its contents.
