You’ll love waking up to awesome urban views and taking your morning Nespresso out onto your private balcony for more of the same. Prepare delicious dishes in the well-equipped kitchen while gazing out on the surrounding skyscrapers before dining à deux in the open-plan living space. Chill out on the lounge-worthy L-shaped sofa and round off the day with a long, hot soak in the tub. 

Alternatively, take time to make the most the incredible amenities on offer here. Why not get your sweat on in the communal gym or luxuriate in the outdoor pool before exploring the local area? You’ll find you’re within yards of the Dubai Fountain and Dubai Mall as well as within walking distance of the iconic Burj Khalifa – really, what’s not to love? In cases of business trumping pleasure high-speed wi-fi and a dedicated desk space means you’ll be girl or boy bossing it in no time.
