Full accommodation 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.

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.

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.

In Dubai on business? The Palace Downtown is equipped for all your needs, with a selection of tastefully-decorated meeting rooms and conference facilities available.

Guest awareness is at the forefront of Palace Downtown’s sustainability efforts. In every room, guests are greeted with 'make the difference' cards, which educate and inspire them to embrace eco-friendly practices during their stay. These cards encourage responsible water and energy use, fostering a culture of environmental consciousness in the resort.

The 'go green committee’ – a dedicated team within the hotel – plays a pivotal role in maintaining and expanding the array of environmental initiatives. They work tirelessly to implement sustainable practices throughout the property and foster a green mindset among both staff and guests.

And Palace Downtown doesn't limit its efforts to its own walls – it reaches out to the community through various charitable programs.

EarthDays, cause walks, Clean The World Day and blood donations are just a few of the ways in which the hotel engages with the community to make a positive impact beyond its luxurious confines. This commitment to sustainability and social responsibility positions Palace Downtown as a beacon of conscientious luxury in the heart of Dubai.
