Stayed at the IC Dubai Festival Center recently on a 2 Night award stay. As an Ambassador I received upgrade to the club level rooms.
Due to miscommunication I was not clear that the access to the club was actually not included. It was a bit unpleasant when they informed me about the fact. We bought it for 360 AED per day which we booked against our planned breakfast expense.
The property is very nice and we enjoyed staying there. The weather was very (surprisingly) pleasant.
The only disadvantage was that it is located a bit away from our target locations (Dubai Mall and Burj al Arab) - we spend a bit of time in taxis.
I posted a few pictures on my
