4 tips for savvy savings when booking a hotel in Dubai

  1. Book for the cheapest times: The most budget-friendly time to visit Dubai is from July to September, when hotel prices tend to be lower. To truly experience the city's iconic landmarks, cultural sites, and historical attractions, a stay of at least 4 to 5 days is recommended. During this time, visitors can explore the stunning skyscrapers, enjoy leisurely boat trips along the river, embark on desert excursions, and savour the local culture at charming cafes. This window offers great value for money for those on a budget, with the possibility that prices could drop even further, making it an ideal period for an affordable getaway.
  2. Look for last-minute deals on Hotels.com: To uncover last-minute deals to Dubai, visit the DealsOpens in a new window or Last-Minute Deals sections on Hotels.com, where you may discover discounted rates on hotels as your travel date approaches. You could also enable email alerts or push notifications to stay informed about flash sales and special promotions, helping you secure the best prices. Additionally, the Smart Shopping tool available in the app allows you to compare hotel prices and amenities, ensuring you find cheap hotels that meet your needs. With these resources, you’re more likely to spot opportunities for a great last-minute getaway.
  3. Be flexible with dates: Prices can fluctuate based on factors such as the hotel’s location, star rating, and the time of year, so being flexible with your dates may help you save on your stay at a hotel in Dubai. For those in search of distinctive accommodations, boutique hotels often provide a more personalised experience and could offer better value. When you book through Hotels.com, we’ll inform you whether the price for your chosen dates is above or below the average. If the price is on the higher side, we’ll recommend alternative, more economical dates to help you find a better deal.
  4. Consider your location: Hotels situated near the city centre usually tend to be pricier, but thanks to Dubai's superb public transport links, you might discover a more affordable independent hotel located further out that remains well connected. For those keen to explore alternative, less crowded neighbourhoods or even lesser-known nearby towns, there is often excellent value for money to be found. Opting for these alternative destinations could provide a more authentic and budget-friendly experience.
