FOR many Dubai residents it is Brunchology that put the stylish Yalumba restaurant on their radar. That, in turn, has alerted many down the years to the charms and numerous dining options available at Le Méridien Dubai Hotel & Conference Centre, the hotel that houses both the outlet and its famous Saturday fixture. We sampled both Yalumba’s ‘Bolli’ brunch and the broader resort over a weekend and discovered something rather special…

AS far as classic celebrated British symbols go the QE2 is up there with Marmite, scones and dodgy weather. The celebrated ship is now enjoying a happy retirement, reinvented as a luxury hotel and permanently moored in Dubai. We stayed the night... Wealthy American author Beatrice Muller enjoyed cruises aboard the QE2 with her husband so much that she dramatically altered the course of her twilight years.
On becoming a widow, she sold their homes and belongings and took up permanent residence on the prestigious ship, sailing the world’s oceans until the pride of the Cunard Line was decommissioned nine years later. WITH many of us still recovering from splashing out over the festive season and new year shenanigans a reasonably-priced ‘drunch’ is just what the wallet doctor ordered. But while this Saturday fixture at Factory by McGettigan’s is helpful for the finances, it doesn’t skimp on the drinks and quirky style.
OVER the years pub brand Mr Toad’s has established itself as a reliable spot for sports, drinks and a good feed in an easy-going atmosphere. Now one of the biggest venues under the respectable reptile’s name has launched a brunch that will tick the boxes of folk seeking comfort food and friendly vibes. When UK hotel brand Premier Inn opened its doors in Dubai’s Barsha Heights it brought with it another hospitality name known to plenty of expats and other city dwellers.
IT must be tough trying to conjure up a unique selling point to make a freshly-minted hotel destination stand out in Dubai. But the recently opened Taj Exotica Resort & Spa, The Palm manages to not only bring something different to the city’s inimitable islands address…it leaves a very memorable impression. IN a global city with no shortage of hotels and resorts it can take a lot to rise above an increasingly crowded roll call of holiday and staycation options.
Yet the Taj Exotica gives anyone familiar with the UAE’s vast hospitality offering plenty to ponder and savour as a destination of depth and choice. SOFITEL Dubai Downtown last year celebrated its fifth birthday. And while much has changed beyond the property, stylish luxury remains the constant within its walls. LIVE in Dubai long enough and it is all too easy to get used to the dramatic and often evolving skyline that defines the city for so many.
As the electronic curtains of suite 1501 slowly ease open the full drama of Sheikh Zayed Road and yonder is there to remind of the dynamic contrast on offer. IN a city always on the look out for the next big thing the Sheraton Dubai Creek Hotel & Towers is a symbol of timeless hospitality. It is also something of a re-assuring constant in an ever-changing leisure landscape. That doesn’t mean to say this queen of the Creek is either resting on its laurels and standing still...
THE Grayton Hotel is rightly raising a few eyebrows in Al Mankhool. And not only because it is that rarest of additions to Bur Dubai…a boutique hotel.
For this new name on the city’s hospitality landscape isn’t using the B-word simply because of its size… |
