Hello,

I will be staying in Dubai the evenings of 15 and 16 June. I would like to stay in a nice hotel in a fun location - probably near the beach. I'd like to keep it under 700 dirhams a night.

Do you have any recommendations?

Thanks!

Thanks. So you would recommend the Jumeirah area?

I am flying into Dubai on Sunday and Emirates will drive me to my hotel in Abu Dhabi where I spend the first half of the week before coming back to Dubai.

What are the tipping customs in the UAE? How much should I tip?

What are the other Jumeirah hotel options that you would recommend? This looks like a nice area.

Ha! Sorry about that. I AM going to Abu Dhabi AND Dubai. First off is Abu Dhabi and then I come back to Dubai. I took your recommendation and have been looking into Jumeirah hotels but the 2 I have checked so far - Hilton and Sheraton - are already full. I think I'll try the Dubai Marine Beach hotel...

All of the hotels at Jurmeriah Beach were full so I settled for the Novotel. It is nice, clean, new, and inexpensive - less than half of what the Jurmeriah Beach hotels were and not that far away.

Any suggestions on places/clubs to go to close by?
