If not, then I may have to find a hotel near Burj Khalifa...
You could still check into the airside hotel , and when you want to see DXB clear immigration and go out and return the same way. ( At least this was possible 2 yrs ago).

Since your transit is only 20hrs leave your bags checked in all the way to your final destination and don't collect them at DXB.
