Hotel Features.

On the seventh floor guests can relax by the side of the rooftop swimming pool, and there are a fitness room, sauna, steam room, and massage treatments available. During the summer daily transfers to Mamzar Beach Park can be arranged by the hotel.
The Hallmark Hotel offers a variety of dining options, including the Star Caf� which is open round the clock and serves international dishes in a relaxed, informal setting. There is also a coffee shop, and a restaurant specialising in Italian cuisine.
The business centre offers conference rooms and a range of onsite services including photocopying, faxing, secretarial services, and Internet connections.
Guestrooms. The 119 air conditioned guestrooms have smart, modern decor in natural shades of olive, cream, and chocolate brown. Amenities include satellite television, direct dial phones with complimentary local calls, wireless Internet access (surcharge), complimentary bottled water, safes, and minibars. Bathrooms offer shower/jetted tub combinations, bathrobes, slippers, complimentary toiletries, and hair dryers.
Expert Tip. Shopping is one of Dubais most popular attractions and the lack of sales tax in the city keeps prices low. In early March the Dubai shopping festival takes place, and prices are cut in the malls. A good area for souvenir hunting is on the Bur Dubai side of the creek, where traditional Arabian goods are sold. Shops, malls and souks usually close on Friday mornings.
