The voco Dubai's an expert in modern style. Plus, its city-side location means easy access to all the main sights, and a short drive to the beach, too.

This hotel’s picked a premium postcode in Dubai’s financial district. It’s got the World Trade Centre for a neighbour, and it’s a 15-minute drive away from Downtown Dubai – home to the Burj Khalifa and The Dubai Mall.

The pool’s a stunner – it’s seven floors up, so the views are second to none. It's the same story at Windows Bar, which has a prime slot on the hotel's 49th floor.
