Maybe the lounge is good enough (1st time through Dubai) ?

Thanks for any info.
Landing at 0035, likely though immigration by 0120 at the latest (as it's your first time at DXB and you'll have to queue up at the desk for the facial scan/smart gate registration), get to hotel by 0200, asleep until 0445/0500 depending on how quickly you pack up and through security at 0515.

YMMV

Unless you have any plans in Dubai at that time, I think Dubai Connect is probably a good option for some relaxation/dinner.
