Your Dubai Address This Summer Dubai has plenty to tempt seasoned travellers, so your only decision is whether to stay Uptown or Downtown...

Uptown

When summer hits, there are few cities better equipped to entertain discerning travellers than Dubai. Teeming with incredible offers, unrivalled entertainment and some of the world’s finest hotels and resorts, the biggest challenge will be choosing where to stay and what to do.

From the celebrated landmarks of vibrant Downtown Dubai, including Burj Khalifa and The Dubai Mall, to the beautiful surrounds of Uptown Dubai, with its verdant golf courses and the glistening marina waters, the city has something to tempt everyone. And when you feel the need to relax, the finest hotels and resorts are always just a stone’s throw from the hottest attractions.

Downtown Dubai is home to some of the world’s most famous attractions. Travel to new heights at the tallest building in the world, Burj Khalifa, and see the city from a new perspective (and get incredible photographs).

It’s here, too, you’ll find the ever-stylish Armani Hotel Dubai, fine dining courtesy of At.mosphere (the world’s highest restaurant)

and At the Top, Burj Khalifa observatory. Back on the ground, amid glittering lights, sits The Dubai Mall and Souk Al Bahar, separated by the awe-inspiring Dubai Fountain. When it comes to rest and relaxation, there are plenty of stylish abodes to choose from: as well as the Armani Hotel Dubai there’s also The Address Downtown Dubai, The Address Dubai Mall and The Palace Downtown Dubai.

Uptown, swap bustling city for urban waterfront. Among the high-rises of the magnificent Dubai Marina you’ll discover the prestigious Dubai Yacht Club, a thriving neighbourhood lined with restaurants and cafes, and a pristine beach just a stroll away. And when it gets too hot, cool off at The Address Dubai Marina where you can enjoy afternoon tea after a dip in its pool, or indulge in a delectable dinner overlooking the glimmering water.

Armani Hotel Dubai The lowdown Gloriously appointed within Burj Khalifa, in the heart of Downtown Dubai, there was never much doubt that the Armani Hotel Dubai would offer the city something special. Fashion lover or not, it’s difficult to deny the impressive nature of the 11-storey hotel: from the lobby’s neck-craningly high ceiling to each of the 160 guest rooms (bathrooms come packed with Armani-branded goodies) and its acclaimed eateries – among them the caramel-hued Armani/Ristorante, where you can savour the fare of Tuscany in a first-class setting. Despite Burj Khalifa’s cylindrical shape, there’s space enough for a wish-bone-shaped swimming pool – the perfect place to escape the city below. Decked out with sleek sun-loungers in

the hotel’s signature grey, outdoor pools don’t get much cooler than this…

Modern rooms, stunning views (particularly at night, when the lights of the surrounding buildings twinkle) and a sun-licked infinity pool are just a few reasons this hotel is one of the most popular in the city.

Live It Up... Attractions There are myriad entertainments to enjoy in Dubai, so be sure you take the time to experience them all...

At the Top

See the sights It’s for good reason that Downtown Dubai is otherwise known as the ‘Centre of Now’ – it’s home to some of city’s best bits, including one impossible-to-miss structure – you guessed it – Burj Khalifa. Everything about this captivating tower is nothing less than amazing, including the breathtaking views that can be seen from its famed observation deck. At the Top is located on the 124th floor of Burj Khalifa, but you can expect to be impressed before you even reach this viewing terrace: Its high-tech, double-deck elevator is one of the fastest in the world, and your inspiring journey into the realm of superlatives begins with a fascinating multimedia presentation on the tri-lobed tower’s artistic design and architectural construction.

It is an aquatic adventure not easily forgotten.

Shop up a storm Is there a better destination in the world to shop than Dubai? We don’t think so. Located in the heart of the prestigious Downtown Dubai is The Dubai Mall, the world’s largest shopping and entertainment destination and the world’s most-visited shopping and leisure destination, which welcomed more than 65 million visitors in 2012. The Dubai Mall has over 1,200 retail outlets including two anchor department stores

- Galeries Lafayette and Bloomingdale’s - and over 200 food and beverage outlets.

Elsewhere inside, The Fashion Avenue, a 440,000 sq ft fashion precinct dedicated to high fashion, positions The Dubai Mall as the fashion capital for the region.

Other niche components of the mall include The Souk, an elegantly designed precinct featuring jewellery shops, accessory outlets, traditional Arab clothing and handicraft stores, among others.

In Uptown Dubai, aside the winding waterways of Dubai Marina, you’ll find the splendid Dubai Marina Mall. It was quick to establish itself as a favourite of the city’s residents when it openend, due to its great mix of high street stores and cool cafes, while it also caters well to children: a little train choo-choos its way through the mall at regular intervals, pulling toddlers - and often their parents - in brightly coloured carriages. A ride that never fails to raise a smile.

The Address Montgomerie Dubai

The mall also houses a great cinema, where the best seats (more like reclining loungers) come with the option of a duvet and pillow.

Be a sport If you want to get into the swing of things while in Dubai, the city is home to some fantastic golf courses. The pick of them is undoubtedly The Montgomerie Dubai. Its 18 holes stretch across 265 acres of rolling emerald greens, interrupted only by glistening water features (14 lakes in total) and the beautiful hotel The Address Montgomerie Dubai, which appears like a white mansion on the horizon. If it sounds picture perfect, it is. Skilled golfers will still find challenges aplenty – look out for the hand-shaped bunker on hole 17 along with a mammoth 656-yard 18th hole. Those who feel their game needs a tweak will be in good hands at The Academy by Troon Golf (home to a state-of-the-art swing studio) where a coach can help you improve your swing and strategy.

If you’ve found your form over 17 holes, you’ll enjoy playing the last, which requires a brave shot over large bunkers and desert. Pull it off and your reward of a cooling drink at the picturesque clubhouse will be well earned.

If sailing is more your style, The Address Dubai Marina concierges are on hand to help you hire a vessel from the neighbouring Dubai Marina Yacht Club, while for equine enthusiasts there is the beautiful Dubai Polo & Equestrian Club. It boasts 300 stables and its world class polo fields are the setting for a series of 10 celebrated polo tournaments each season.

Thiptara, The Palace Downtown Dubai

For home comforts The sumptuous setting of Ewaan, at The Palace Downtown Dubai, marks this as a fine place to enjoy traditional Arabic dishes that are skillfully prepared at live cooking stations. But if it’s a lighter bite you’re after, head outside – poolside to be precise – where Ewaan Lounge offers some of the best mezzeh in town.

prepared using only the most original Middle Eastern ingredients.

For the finest Asian fare Dubai is blessed with some choice Japanese restaurants and among that list of must-dines is Armani Hotel Dubai’s Armani/Hashi. In fact, the only thing more impressive than the exceptionally fresh sushi and sashimi it serves [the fish is flown in daily from around the world] are the views of The Dubai Fountain which

accompany your every mouthful when dining at night.

Another fine view of The Dubai Fountain can be had from standout Thai restaurant Thiptara, housed in a stand-alone building on the Burj Lake in the grounds of The Palace Downtown Dubai.

For sublime Italian, would anywhere do it better than Armani Hotel Dubai? Armani/ Ristorante exudes chic Italian style from every corner, with its creamy banquettes, light gold hues and pendant lighting. The food, meanwhile, is equally appealing, drawing on the best dishes from Italy’s diverse regions. If you prefer something of the same ilk but more of a lighter bite, the less formal Armani/Deli is an exceptional choice.

In Uptown Dubai, Nineteen at The Address Montgomerie Dubai – so called because it overlooks the 18th hole of the beautiful golf course – has its talented chefs on full view in a display kitchen, and when it comes to the food we urge you to try the rotisserie grill menu; the meats are always wickedly tender.

Meanwhile at The Palace Downtown Dubai, Asado offers an authentic taste of Argentina, where prime cuts of meat are prepared Asado Criollo-style on an open Parrilla grill in the centre of the restaurant.
