Review of Grand Hyatt Dubai, by Vanessa Kaoukji

The Grand Hyatt Dubai's lobby is dominated by a colossal pineapple chandelier and behind it, four larger-than-life dhow hulls hang from the ceiling, making you feel as though you are underwater. Plants and rivers form the centre piece and around the indoor jungle situated in this luxury hotel and apart from the white noise created by the waterfall, this is a very peaceful area.

The facilities

While staying at this luxury hotel, guests may enjoy a fantastic indoor pool, on top of the three outdoor pools, along with a well equipped gym. The Grand Hyatt has acres of landscaped gardens and children's areas, but it is also ideal for business travellers, having the best conference facilities in Dubai. Additionally, being located close to the main malls and the airport makes it a great place for those requiring the occasional shopping binge.

The rooms

This luxury hotel boasts 674 rooms and suites which are luxurious and spacious with far-reaching views over the city and elements of art deco design make the interior interesting. All rooms feature a minibar, robes, in-room safe and 24-hour room service.
