1. A brief look at some of the best hotels in the UAE to consider for a family holiday If you are looking to embark on a family trip to a great international destination, The United Arab Emirates (UAE) is a great place to consider for the best Middle Eastern family adventure. The UAE is home to highly contemporary and popular cities like Dubai and Abu Dhabi, as well as some of the world’s largest sand dunes, plus the alluring beaches of the Gulf of Oman, situated on the eastern side of the Arabian Peninsula. The crown gem of the UAE is without a doubt Dubai, and thousands of visitors from around the world flock to the ‘city of gold’ every year to take in everything this magnificent city has to offer. Dubai is also home to the Burj Khalifa - the tallest building in the world, where you can take in breathtaking views from the observation deck. As with any other family holiday, it is also very important to plan properly and to choose the right accommodation when planning a family holiday in the UAE, and in this article, we will highlight some of the best hotels in the UAE to help you make an informed decision. Holiday Inn Express Dubai-Internet City This hotel provides convenience for businessmen travelling with their families, as well as leisure travellers, thanks to its close proximity to the largest shopping centre - the Dubai Mall of the Emirates - as well as the rapidly developing Dubai Marina and at Jumeirah Palm, as well as easy access to the Dubai-Abu Dhabi Expressway. There are many different things to do there, such as shopping, entertainment, and water activities.
