We stayed at the Address Hotel, close to the Burj Khalifa and definitely worth its 5 star rating. The Sky Bar, open after 6:00p.m. affords wonderful views of Dubai by night. The pool area is large, the pool water temperature just right and the sunbeds most comfortable. The poolside bar offers grandstand views of the fountains. The 2nd photo below, taken from the pool, shows part of the immense Burj Khalifa, whilst behind the hotel you can see the vast Dubai Mall and beyond it, that the building work continues into the desert. In the room, there is an electric powered shutter behind the couch so that the bathroom can be separated from the main room.
Christmas in Dubai? Santas, elves, reindeer, (piped) Christmas carols galore and a chocolate yule log in the hotel room. In keeping with the ambition of the place, some of the Christmas trees were very impressively large.
For Christmas dinner we kept away from the turkey and trimmings and opted for a very enjoyable Italian meal.
