Dubai Hotels
I am planning a 3 day stopover in Dubai in March on my return from India .
Will have wife and a 3 year old with me
Any suggestions on a reasonable international chain hotels for 2 nights in Dubai that may cost around US $70-100
Are there any websites that offer good deals for Dubai hotels. I guess priceline is ruled out.
Appreciate any tips from MiddleEast/Gulf region veterans
from RDU

try this site.

I like the dubai marine beach resort - which is great for kids. You should email them - tyhey will lower their rates a lot fromthe 'official' rate if you ask. The hyatt is nice (rooms are great) and the city center hotel is attached to the largest mall in dubai. It's hard to find a bad hotel in Dubai.

You might strike lucky and manage a room at the Hilton Dubai Creek for about $100. Check the Hilton website but don't forget to include the tax.
I've stayed there twice since it opened 12 months ago and love it. The view from the pool on the roof is absolutely amazing.
As for the Burj its regular price is more like $1000 than $600 although it drops at certain times of year like now during Ramadan.
