“I like that this hotel has direct access to Dubai Festival City Mall, which makes shopping sprees incredibly easy; plus, families will appreciate the VIK program and complimentary breakfast for the kids. Joe's Backyard, with its BBQ and skyline views, is a standout feature, though the soft beds might not be for everyone.
