Default Family Holiday in Dubai

Hi all,

It's my wife's birthday in April 09 and I thought it might be time to plan a trip to Dubai. My question is which are the best hotels if you are bringing your 18 month old daughter along for the holiday?

Suggestions greatly appreciated, free rooms even more so.

what sort of hotel are you looking for...top end, mina al salaam, al qasr and jumeirah beach hotel would all be perfect cos they have a good kids club, the westin may share the mina seyahi one as well...

In that case, I have a very reasonably priced room in my villa
All the above are worth a visit, my own favourite is the One and Only!
Have fun!

I've been looking at Atlantis but I want the room with the fish tank and I'm not that well paid. Maybe for her 40th instead.

Thanks for the suggestions as well Blue Cat. I'll check them now.

Thanks for the offer Road King. If they are all booked you may have a house guest....or three.

Atlantis would be great. My daughter would stand at the fish tank all day and be fully occupied.

I don't see the problem.
