NH Collection Dubai The Palm
The biggest city in the United Arab Emirates (UAE), Dubai is also associated with iconic architecture, like the world’s tallest skyscraper Burj Khalifa, glamourous lifestyle—packed with bold-faced brands from Cartier to Zegna, Dubai Mall is the world’s largest—and leisure options galore such as pristine beaches and desert safaris. No wonder Dubai retained its number one status as the world’s top destination for two consecutive years in the Tripadvisor Travellers’ Choice Awards.
As you’d expect: Dubai’s hotel scene is chock-full of breathessly expensive five-star resorts such as Burj Al Arab, one of the world’s recognizable hotels. But what should you do if you’re seeking a more sensible option and don’t want to drop four figures per night on a Dubai vacation? What if I told you there’s a new property in town boasting a smart location, playful design, attentive service, and incredibly competitive rates—which currently hover under $200 night—that will appeal to many types of guests?
The cheerful lobby of NH Collection Dubai The Palm
Opened last year, NH Collection Dubai The Palm—which marks the NH brand’s debut in the Middle East—is conveniently situated in Palm Jumeirah’s Seven Palm, a beachfront mixed-use development. The first thing you’ll notice when you enter the lobby filled with colorful seating, eccentric art, and chatty multi-lingual staff, is a refreshingly casual vibe. In contrast to Dubai’s more established properties, NH Collection Dubai The Palm is smartly targeting a younger, more worldly clientele seeking a reasonably-priced stay with easy access to the best of Dubai.

This relaxed approach extends to the 533 guest rooms and suites. Featuring supportive platform beds with customizable pillow menus, cheerful murals depicting Dubai’s most famous attractions, and spacious bathrooms stocked with clean Urban Skincare toiletries, the accommodations are comfortably appointed with everything you need to unwind while away from home. Because sustainability is a key NH pillar, all the accommodations provide complimentary filtered water in glass bottles and plastic-free amenities like bamboo toothbrushes and toothpaste tablets. Even better? NH Collection Dubai The Palm is the first hotel in Dubai to have vegan rooms. And since wellness is a priority for everyone nowadays, the hotel also offers a well-equipped gym, rooftop pool, and Soul Senses Spa & Wellness for massages and body treatments.

While regular guests of NH Collection hotels already know about the brand’s bountiful breakfast buffets blending Western staples and local delicacies—here, they’re presented at the all-day buffet eatery Maiora—there’s much more to savor. As the name suggests, Seven Sports Bar is a casual pub where can dig into burgers and pints of frosty beer while catching your favorite sports games on the screens. Revo Café is an approachable space doling out nutritious, garden-fresh creations—try the customizable vegan poke bowls—for people and their beloved pets. Even in-room dining here is a globetrotting treat, with unexpected menu items like Pad Thai and Butter Chicken. The crown jewel of NH Collection Dubai The Palm, however, is View 180. Whether you’re craving a sunset Aperol Spritz or Asian-inspired dinner (sushi rolls, shrimp dumplings, Thai-style chicken wings) accompanied by impressive views, this popular rooftop destination has you covered.
