Editorial Review

Cheerful, but not so cheap as this particular franchise is of the four-star variety. Glass frontage spruces up the lower-class Holiday Inn reputation. Located near to the Mall of the Emirates it offers clean, efficient and fully equipped rooms at more favourable rates than its closet competitor, Kempinski. Although near to the mall it’s not on its doorstep. The traffic is less daunting and guests less pretentious. Determined to standout it emits a contemporary glow, yet not at the cost of its ethnicity. Traditional Arabic features abound from nasal tickling incense to delicate wooden latticework. Rooftop pool, access to over 11 restaurants and two bars make up for not being on the beach.
