One&Only Royal Mirage

Hotel details

Opened in 1999, The Palace is one of the best addresses on Dubai’s ever-growing luxury hotel scene. Or, to be more precise, three. With the addition of two properties opened in 2002 to this fantasy resort on Jumeira Beach, a 60-acre oasis of landscaped gardens, palm trees and fountains, a trio of equally impressive but distinctly different hotels are yours to choose from.

The Palace, built in the style of an Arabian fortress, is opulence itself. With a spectacular torch-lit courtyard and grand Moorish interiors, it houses 230 luxuriously-appointed sea-facing rooms with balconies.

The Arabian Court, on the other hand, lets you experience life in an authentic building whose superb architecture recalls the 1001 Nights. Following an old Arabia theme, the rooms are connected to a majestic gallery by vaulted passageways.

Those seeking privacy and ultimate pampering will prefer the Residence & Spa. More intimate than its neighbours, it houses just 50 deluxe sea-facing rooms and suites plus one private villa.

The breathtaking Health & Beauty Institute which features the One & Only Spa, oriental hammam and hair salon is a treat for the eye as well as the body, with towering domes, intricately-carved arches.

With eight restaurants, multiple swimming pools (including the largest one in the Gulf), an outdoor amphitheatre and the nearby Emirates Golf, your dilemma won’t be finding things to do – but how to fit it all in!
