Discover your dream Dubai hotel with Expedia

Varied Dubai hotels for every type of traveller 

Rare are the destinations that do extravagance and luxury as well as Dubai. The United Arab Emirates' largest city by population, Dubai is also its finance, tech, and travel hub, as well as a magnet for all things innovative and outlandish. This philosophy extends to Dubai hotels, which are some of the most impressive in the world. From beachfront palaces impeccably suited for family holidays to futuristic boutique hotels that couples on a romantic trip will love, all the way through to Dubai all-inclusive hotels that offer a first-class experience like few others, Dubai caters to the whims and fancies of all kinds of travellers. And if you're searching for Dubai hotels with waterparks you've come to the right place: Dubai has one of the largest waterparks in the world, and you can book rooms in an adjoining hotel with Expedia. 

Popular places to stay in Dubai 

Dubai is a large and bustling city with many unique parts to experience. Where to stay in Dubai depends on the type of holiday you're after, be it an unadulterated luxury holiday, an adventure-packed break, or a more relaxed affair. International travellers typically fly into the busy Dubai International Airport. Getting around Dubai is simple thanks to a well-developed metro system and a steady supply of taxis ready to help you crisscross the city. Some of the most popular areas to stay include: 

  • Dubai Marina is all about the seafront and the beaches. It's where you will find some of the most popular Dubai resorts. Families and first-timers particularly appreciate the area for its location, convenience, and a fantastic selection of Dubai beach hotels
  • Downtown Dubai is where to head for some of the major attractions such as the world's tallest building, the Burj Khalifa, the Dubai Opera, the famous Dubai Fountain, and the impressive Dubai Mall with its aquarium, ice-rink, and troves of tempting stores. 
  • Deira, also known as Old Dubai, is where you can discover the roots of this mega city in the desert – an origin story of sorts. With charming souks and old architecture, the area boasts some of the best family hotels in Dubai and will appeal to travellers who want to experience a different side of the city. 
  • The Palm is a much-loved destination for couples ready to spice up their Dubai break with a full jet-set experience. This feat of construction is a man-made island designed to resemble a palm tree. You'll find a wide selection of Dubai hotels as well as Michelin-starred restaurants and one of the largest waterparks in the world.

Find some of the best Dubai hotel deals 

One of the best ways to access some of the best Expedia deals for your Dubai hotel booking is to be flexible with your travel dates. The busy season in Dubai is from November to April when the temperatures are at their most manageable. This is also when prices for the top hotels in Dubai typically peak. Looking at travel dates outside of those busier months might mean finding better deals. 

If you are looking for cheap hotels in Dubai you may be able to find great options by sorting your search results list by "Price: low to high" and by ticking the guest rating boxes in the search filters on the left. This will display a list of Dubai accommodations that have been well-rated by Expedia guests and that are on the cheaper end of the scale.
