The Royal Mirage Hotel, Dubai looks like a huge ancient Arabian Fortress on the Jumeirah Beach. When you go there at night, big fires and oil lamps lead you trough all the palms right to the entrance of the hotel decorated with statues of huge golden camels. One of the many boys show you through the luxurious doorway - and then you are in the midst of the dreams of 1001 night. You definitely will love this lobby with all its gold, tall palms and beautiful colours!

At "THE PALACE" accommodation ranges from the two Royal Suites, 19 Executive Suites, 53 Gold Club Rooms (with private reception and cocktail lounge) to the 175 Deluxe guestrooms - of course all of them sea-facing with central air-conditioning, Satellite TV, hairdryer, IDD phone, walk-in closet, luxurious bathroom with separate shower and private balconies or ground patios (we tried one of these and only had ten to eleven steps to the pool - great!)

Three themed restaurants provide a selection of Mediterranean, Moroccan and Arabian fusion cuisines, some with spectacular views over the beautifully big swimming pool, the beach and the Arabian Gulf. An Oriental Cafe in the central hall offers specialty teas and coffees and regional delicacies. The hotel also has six bars, including the spectacular Kasbar nightclub for animated evening entertainment.

The hotel offers an extensive private beach with comprehensive water sports and recreational facilities like sailing, windsurfing, Hobie Cats and waterskiing, three floodlit tennis courts, a putting green and a dedicated children's centre. Other activities like scuba diving, sport fishing or golf are available nearby and may be booked in advance at our very cheap tour-operator rates.

The ROYAL MIRAGE "THE PALACE" provides you with an extensive health and beauty institute. A team trained with latest techniques of personalised and highly professional beauty treatments, facials, massage and aquatherapy will offer the best treatments to you - also in the steam room and the private massage rooms for loose weights and sport massage. A multi-purpose gym providing cardiovascular machine is available, too.
