Hotel information
Welcome to the Palace Downtown, perfectly located in one of Dubai’s prime spots: right across the water from the towering, 163-storey Burj Khalifa and the Dubai Mall, with many rooms overlooking the majestic Dubai Fountain.
Designed in the style of a classic Middle Eastern palace, the Palace Downtown offers a striking contrast to the modern neighbourhood that it calls home. Luxury shopping (Versace, Chanel and Christian Louboutin are right on the doorstep) gives way to iconic sights dotted liberally across Dubai’s downtown. This is a hotel that effortlessly blends the city’s forward-thinking modernity with a respect for old-style architectural beauty.
Partly refurbished in 2019, the Palace Downtown offers a haven amongst the noise: think rows of palm trees framing a calm blue swimming pool, traditionally low-storey Middle Eastern buildings, and finishing decorative touches that reflect the soft Arabic architecture of the historic part of the world that it calls home.
With world-class restaurants and bars, a luxury spa and an undeniably breathtaking location, the Palace Downtown is a wonderful choice for your Dubai holiday whether you’re with family, friends or a partner. Book into one of the hotel’s luxury rooms, drink in the stunning view, and allow yourself to be indulged.
Room Options
There are 242 rooms at the Palace Downtown, including 81 suites. Every room has a private balcony that overlooks either the Dubai Fountain, the Old Town or the Burj Lake, so you’re guaranteed a stunning vista whichever room you choose. Let the Palace Downtown welcome you as a real home from home whilst you’re sampling the famous hospitality that Dubai has to offer.

Activities & Entertainment
There are numerous activities close to the Palace Downtown that will keep all members of your party entertained.
Two swimming pools (one of which is a children’s pool) provide the perfect opportunity to cool down if the desert heat gets a bit too much. Those who want to unwind will enjoy a trip to the hotel’s fitness centre and luxury spa, where various treatments are available alongside a hammam, hot tubs and a steam room.
The main attractions of Dubai are within a stone’s throw of the Palace Downtown. Found on the shores of Burj Lake, the hotel is only a short walk from the world-famous Burj Khalifa, the tallest building in the world. Ascend the tower’s 163 floors and take in the stunning vista of the city and the surrounding desert from the 360-degree At The Top observation deck. The Dubai Mall, with its 1,200+ shops, traditional souk and the neighbouring Dubai Aquarium, is a mere 500m from the hotel.
