Dubai is a tourist hub with many accommodation options.
Just 10 minutes away from Dubai International Airport and with direct access to Festival City Mall, the hotels at Dubai Festival City are the ideal location for anyone looking to stay close to the LitFest and explore the city at large.
We recommend booking in advance as the Festival season is a busy period and to use our booking link to get the best rates.
The 2025 Festival takes place at the event center of the InterContinental Dubai Festival City, which boasts waterfront and skyline views of the Dubai Creek, an award-winning spa, a Michelin starred chef, and a world-class luxury experience for perfect for friend groups.
Just a short walk from the event center, Crowne Plaza offers a relaxed stay with a lovely view of the Mohammed Bin Rashid Library and access to several dining spots including Dubai’s original Belgian Cafe. Recommended for families.
A little further from the action but in close proximity to Dubai Festival City Mall, Holiday Inn & Suites is the perfect destination for the solo traveller who wants to make the most of the weekend onsite at the Festival and around Dubai.
