The Lowdown: Conveniently located on Sheikh Zayed Road, Habtoor Palace is the perfect hotel to discover local Downtown Dubai, or else jump in a cab and relax on the private beach at sister property, Waldorf Astoria Palm Jumeirah, in under 30 minutes. With butler service for every guest, fine dining, sprawling gardens, and three sparkling pools, whatever you are looking for, Habtoor Palace offers luxury at its finest. Make sure to arrange a VIP backstage tour of resident La Perle which includes a private entrance, behind-the-scenes tour, meet-and-greet with the acrobats, VIP seats, and dinner at the award-winning World Cut Steakhouse.

Suite Talk: Each room exudes a European charm with ample options for couple and families alike. Crucially, every room includes butler service. The hotel has a total of 52 opulent suites however for the ultimate luxury stay, the Royal Suite is the only way to go. With views of the sweeping gardens, the 3,855 square foot suite offers all the living space one could need – from a dining room for eight to a personal study, to a majlis-style lounge.

Insider’s Tip: Avoid the crowds and take your very own private tour of the Dubai desert – both on the ground and in the air. Organized exclusively by the Habtoor Palace concierge, the day begins with a Bentley transfer from the hotel straight to your hot air balloon. Upon landing you will be met by a 1950’s Land Rover which will deliver you to a gourmet breakfast at a traditional Bedouin camp. Prefer to simply lie back and relax? Head up to The Roof Gardens, Habtoor Palace’s open-air poolside hangout, where luxury treats include smoothie tastings, sunscreen spritzing, and refreshing cold towels.

Vogue Verdict: Chic European-style opulence with unparalleled access to the best of Dubai.
