The most luxurious hotels in the city can be found in The Palm Jumeirah, one of Dubai’s most famous landmarks. Comprised of a collection of off-shore islands, holiday rentals at the Palm, such as the Sofitel Dubai The Palm Luxury Apartments, have intimate suites, private beaches and great views of the waterfront. Downtown Dubai is the place to stay if you want to be close to fine-dining restaurants, luxury shopping, and the world’s tallest skyscraper, the Burj Khalifa.
