They won't put you up in the Airport hotel. Not even F or J passengers get that.
Either the Millennium or Arabian Park. If it's the latter, I'd suggest the OP stick it up in the lounge if he/she has status. Never have I been to a hotel as horrifyingly dirty as that hotel. Prostitutes galore by the poolside, bedsheets stained with god knows what, carpets that smell worse than NYC subway stations, and the list goes on and on. EK has put me up in that hotel 3 times, but never will I step foot in it again. Granted, it's free and one shouldn't look a gift horse in the mouth. However, I would pay triple their rack rate to get a room in any other hotel near the airport.
