URBAN AL KHOORY HOTEL, Dubai

The hotel sits in a quiet, residential-industrial area of Al Quoz, 18 km from Dubai International Airport. Downtown Dubai is a 10-20 minute taxi ride, while the nearest metro station (Onpassive) is a 5-minute bus ride on route F16. A supermarket is a 30-second walk away, and several local eateries are within walking distance. The area is not pedestrian-friendly for sightseeing, but the location provides quick car access to major highways, making it practical for travellers with a rental car or those using taxis and ride-hailing services.

Each room is fitted with a flat-screen satellite TV, minibar, tea/coffee maker, electric kettle, safe, and free toiletries. The private bathrooms include a walk-in shower (some with bathtub) and hairdryer. Rooms on higher floors offer city skyline views, while lower or road-facing rooms may experience traffic noise. Interconnecting rooms are available on request. The décor is modern, though some soft furnishings show wear. The central air conditioning can feel cool; the hotel does not offer individual heating control. Housekeeping is performed daily unless the 'Do Not Disturb' sign is active.

Breakfast is served from 06:30 to 10:30 as a buffet with hot and cold options, including made-to-order omelettes, pastries, cereals, and Indian dishes. Dinner runs from 17:30 to 22:30 and features a set menu with choices of soup, salad, main course (meat, fish, or pasta), and dessert, changing nightly. The menu can be adapted for dietary requirements on request. Breakfast costs 50 AED if not included in the rate. Al Dallah café, on the ground floor, is open 24 hours for high tea and light snacks. Room service is available during restaurant hours.
