Top Free Zone Hotel Reviews

Taj Dubai

10/10 Excellent

"Wonderful hotel with impeccably clean and beautiful rooms, great food and a fantastic staff. From the moment you walk into the hotel you feel the luxury of every space and the warmth and kindness of the staff. We were treated to an upgraded room and a delicious chocolate cake for our anniversary celebration. We had celebrated our anniversary there the year before and loved it so much we just had to return despite the recent political turmoil. Our second experience was even better than the first and we can't wait to return next year. Treat yourself to this fantastic hotel, you'll enjoy every moment!"

Sofitel Dubai Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"I was only staying for a few hours during a stopover, but this was a fantastic choice. The location was perfect: Right in Downtown Dubai, with a kosher restaurant on the top floor! I sat on the most comfortable chaise lounge at the pool looking perfectly at the tallest building in the world. The staff was more than friendly, and greeted me each time I came and went through the lobby.The room was GRAND, with a fantastic view of the Burj Dubai, as well as a complimentary night robe and slippers. I needed a laundry bag for my dirty laundry, and the attendant brought two luxury laundry bags to me a few minutes after a called. It was definitely worth the money - even for my short stopover - and all the more so for an overnight stay."

Rove Downtown Dubai

10/10 Excellent

"Amazing Stay at Rove Downtown Dubai I had an amazing stay at Rove Downtown Dubai. It was absolutely worth the money and exceeded my expectations in every way. The hotel is clean, modern, and conveniently located. The staff were incredibly friendly, welcoming, and always ready to help. A special mention to the team at Friday Restaurant. The food was delicious, and the restaurant staff were very kind and attentive, making every meal enjoyable. One of the highlights of my stay was the breathtaking Burj Khalifa view from my room window. Waking up to such an iconic view was truly unforgettable and made the experience even more special. I highly recommend Rove Downtown Dubai to anyone visiting Dubai. Great value, excellent service, tasty food, and an amazing location with stunning views!"

Le Meridien Dubai Hotel & Conference Centre

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel is absolutely gorgeous. Everything is kept immaculate, from the room to the lobby and everything in between. The staff are all incredibly friendly, the amount of dining options is mind blowing, and the best part is that the whole experience is very affordable, especially when comparing to anything you would get in Europe or the United States."

Radisson Blu Hotel Dubai Waterfront

10/10 Excellent

"El hotel es hermoso, muy limpio y desde la llegada en el lobby nos reciben con agua fría; café y esos deliciosos dátiles de Dubai. La habitación es amplia, con todo lo necesario para una estancia confortable. Me encantó su “punto del café”, siempre me dejaron café y té suficiente para disfrutar luego de una tarde/noche de paseo. Muchas gracias a todos. Volveré pronto"

Frequently asked questions

When is the best time to go to Free Zone?

The best time to visit the Free Zone, Ajman, is during the cooler months, from October to April, when the weather is most pleasant for outdoor activities and exploring.

During this period, temperatures are mild, typically ranging from 20 to 30 degrees Celsius, making it ideal for enjoying the beaches, golf courses, and outdoor attractions without the intense heat of the summer. You'll find it comfortable to explore the Ajman Corniche, visit the Ajman Museum, or take a dhow cruise.

Couples looking for a relaxing getaway will appreciate the pleasant evenings for dining al fresco or enjoying a stroll along the waterfront. The cooler weather also means you can comfortably participate in activities like desert safaris or exploring the nearby emirates.

Families travelling with children will find these months great for outdoor excursions. The kids can enjoy the beach and any outdoor play areas without being overheated. Many resorts and attractions also offer more outdoor programming during this season.

Many Expedia hotel reservations are refundable, provided that you cancel before the hotel's cancellation deadline – this is often within 24-48 hours of your scheduled arrival.
