If Dubai is your dream destination and you wish to plan a tour within your budget then I have good news for you. Go to Dubai on budget and it’s true, not at all fantasy.
Dubai is the most flamboyant city of United Arab Emirates, where you find a self-proclaimed seven-star hotel, indoor skiing and artificial islands. Number of budget hotels are coming up to help you out.
Upcoming Budge Hotels:
Six hotels based on easyHotel models will be built. Prices are expected to be around 250 to 300 dirhams or about $67 to $80 a night at 3.75 dirhams to the dollar.
Ibis, an economy brand of Accor, the giant French hotel company, which already has one hotel in Dubai, plans to expand with a 480-room hotel there in December and a 365-room hotel in 2008.
Britain’s biggest hotel chain, Premier Travel Travel Inn is building a 300-room hotel at the Dubai Investments Park. Rooms are expected to be in the 400-dirham range.
You can stay at Hotel Ascot for about $130 a night and dine at nearby Indian restaurants for less than $5 a meal.
More Info
Soon economical vehicles will also be available. Hertz is adding small cars like the Honda Jazz hatchback and Toyota Yaris to its Dubai fleet cars that rest for about $55 a day.
Plan a budget tour and enjoy thoroughly but avoid traveling during the wildly popular Dubai Shopping Festival(from late December through January) because you’ll face high rates as you compete for rooms with crowds of well-heeled travelers.
