Hotels in Dubai
Dubai hotels compete with more OTA listings and more traveller nationalities than almost any city. City hotels, beach resorts and serviced apartments sell to leisure guests booking months ahead and business travellers booking the same day.
Guests come from India, the UK, Russia, Saudi Arabia, Europe and China, with peaks in the cooler months from October to April and around major events and exhibitions. Summer brings strong GCC family demand and staycations, when pool-and-brunch packages and kids-stay-free offers do well on the direct channel.
