At A glAnceA landmark in itself, Raffles Dubai is a stunning property with a distinctive pyramid shape. Blending Asian style with Egyptian aesthetics, the hotel delivers the unexpected with impeccable service and sophisticated style.
Located in Wafi, the heart of the city, only 1.5 miles from Dubai International Airport and a 10-minute drive from Dubai’s business districts and all major shopping, cultural and tourist attractions, it also boasts easy access to the Dubai Metro.
The facade packs an architectural punch while inside, design emphasises three distinctive heritages: traditional Middle Eastern culture, ancient Egyptian history and refined Asian culture. The lobby’s magnificent Asian-style waterfall is complemented by brass chandeliers and columns embellished with hand-carved hieroglyphs.
The four elements — earth, wind, fire and water — are another theme of the two-acre Raffles Botanical Garden and the four opulent Presidential Suites, each designed after an element.

With seven soothing treatment rooms, including a couple’s suite with private whirlpool and an outside retreat within the Raffles Botanical Garden, Raffles Spa philosophy is to ‘observe the lotus’. It journeys from bud, through to blossom and on to full bloom, creating beauty and purity at every stage — enlivening the senses.
Treatments are inspired by these stages of change: bud (body), blossom (beauty) and bloom (full experiences). Complementing the Raffles experience is the gracious service, making Raffles Dubai the ultimate destination from which to explore Dubai in luxury.
