The DXB Hyatt is fairly old, but it has a good location compared to some other hotels in the city. It has a beautiful lobby and it even has a VERY small ice skating rink and shopping center, also there is a movie theater at the Hyatt showing Arabic language films. Rooms are OK, just what you would expect from Hyatt, but not spectacular. Not sure what you’re going to DXB for, but tourist things vs. business things dictate where one should stay.

I can confirm the previous posters remark in that the Muscat Hyatt is extremely nice. It is newer then the DXB Hyatt and it is in the upscale diplomatic area of Muscat. If you are going to the region for vacation and haven't been to MCT-it is a must. Maybe my favorite country in the world and you'll feel absolutely safe at all times. In fact, if you decide to go to MCT let me know I'll go with you
