Dubai

Dubai hotels might not be very cheap but you do get a lot for your money. The special thing about almost all hotels in Dubai is that they are far more than just places to stay overnight and maybe have dinner and breakfast. Hotels in Dubai are the only place with very few exceptions in the whole city that have a license for restaurants and bars that sell alcohol. Hotels in Dubai represent the social meeting point for everybody who can afford it and this is a lot of more people than only the guest who are staying in the hotel. The highest building is a hotel too, the world famous Burj Al Arab. On top of that Dubai has some of the finest holiday resorts in the entire continent. None of this is really cheap but Dubai is a unique place to anywhere else I have ever been before.

Cheap Hotels

As mentioned earlier Dubai has not really a lot of hostels or budget hotels. However while the city has an ongoing reputation for being the top luxury holiday destination of the United Emirates there are a few hotel chains that seem to have discovered the hole in the budget to mid-range hotel market in Dubai. Some of the names are Premier Travel and Rotana Hotels with their new brand Centro that aims towards low to mid budget travelers. The first couple of hotels will open in 2008. So watch out for those and good luck with hunting for cheap hotels in Dubai.

Cheapest Hostel in Dubai

Despite all the bad news about expensive luxury hotels and the wave of luxury travellers streaming into the city each day there is one youth hostel in Dubai known as the cheapest accommodation in town. This hostel accommodation, not far from the Al Mulla Plaza, is located on Qusais Road. Because of its success in 2002 the owners decided to try an experiment and added a 4 star wing to the hostel tripling the number of accommodations. In case you feel to need to upgrade next door. The hostel has 53 beds in total and the cost per night start as unbelievably as cheap $18, £9 or 14 Euro. This is in case you are already a YHA member with I believe most backpackers such as myself are anyway. If you are not a member just add 15% to the cost, that’s all. By the way if you think of that hostel as sharing with lots of other people one huge dormitory you are mistaken. Booking the Dubai Youth Hostel you will stay in one of the 20 very clean, two bed dormitories including breakfast. The value you get for your money staying at the Dubai Youth Hostel is absolutely outstanding for this expensive city.
