Dubai is the ultimate city of contrasts, where soaring modern skyscrapers and fast highways exist side by side with ancient mosques and traditional souk markets. Staying at Shangri-La Hotel, Dubai gives you easy access to Dubai’s intriguing attractions. It takes you just 15 minutes to get to the hotel from Dubai International Airport, while the World Trade Centre, Dubai Convention Centre and downtown Burj Khalifa are just five minutes away.

This is life at its best. This is Shangri-La Hotel, Dubai.

You spend the day exploring the city’s exciting activities. You go on a shopping spree at Dubai’s famous malls, visiting Festival City and Deira City Centre, where you purchase designer label products. Longing for a bit of calm, you visit Jumeirah Mosque, and are impressed with its beautiful twin minarets and majestic dome. You finish your day’s excursions with a desert safari, and are thrilled as the vehicle roars up and down the sand dunes, bringing back memories of the ancient desert traveller.

Returning to the hotel, you find that you've arrived at the perfect time to catch the sunset. From your room, you take in the sight of the gorgeous rays spreading across the shimmering Arabian Sea.

Ready for a good meal, you ponder your options. There's a delectable international buffet at Dunes Café, contemporary Moroccan cuisine at Marrakech and Hoi Ann offers modern Vietnamese cuisine. Although spoilt for choice you decide to sample the renowned Cantonese cuisine at Shangri-La’s signature Chinese restaurant, Shang Palace.

After your delicious meal, you decide to pamper your body at the spa. The "Kerstin Lavender Dreams Ultimate" begins with an energizing full-body exfoliation featuring earthy minerals and calming lavender. Next you enjoy a relaxing pressure-point massage that uses healing stones to draw out toxins and restore balance. 

As you soak in the sensations, you start planning activities for the days ahead. With so much to discover tomorrow, you want to enjoy the serene feeling while it lasts – in the lush surroundings of Shangri-La Hotel, Dubai.
