Inspired by a graceful sailboat, InterContinental Dubai Festival City stands tall amid the local business and shopping districts. If you're in town on business you'll appreciate the proximity to Burj Dubai, the Business Bay and Dubai World Trade Centre. Bastakiya, Dubai Museum and Al Mamzar Beach Park are nearby, which means InterContinental Dubai Festival City has as much to offer the leisure seeker as it does the business traveller. The hotel is home to four dynamic restaurants and two stylish bars, all with acclaimed views of the Dubai skyline. There is also a luxurious spa offering signature treatments; 24-hour state-of-the-art gymnasium; outdoor 25 metre pool; 3,800sqm event centre and an 18-hole championship golf course with award-winning club house at the hotel's Al Badia Golf Club.

This is a world class hotel close

This is a world class hotel close to the airport, shopping malls and golf course. The service in this hotel beats anything else that we have experienced in a 5 star hotel anywhere else in the world. And everything is done with a smile (a welcome change if you have just spent two weeks in a French hotel)
