Vida Downtown Dubai
A short walk from the highest building in the world, the Burj Khalifa, Vida Downtown Dubai is a modern, chic boutique 4* deluxe hotel superbly set in the heart of Downtown Dubai. Perfect for couples and families alike, you can take advantage of the city's many attractions, most within walking distance, including Dubai Mall, the dancing fountains, Dubai Opera as well as Dubai Aquarium and KidsZania.
Spread across six floors, the hotel's 156 rooms and suites are extremely well-appointed with a contemporary urban style. There's a choice of four restaurants including Toko, which serves Japanese and Asian dishes and the two-floor La Serre, which focuses on Mediterranean fare. Being so centrally located allows the perfect combination of discovering some of the Dubai sights before retreating to the hotel for the afternoon to relax in one of the poolside cabanas of the outdoor pool. Business Bay and the canal area, with its choice of restaurants, are also close by.

The Vida was very clean and our room was spacious. We had dinner and drinks in the restaurant one night and were very happy with the meal and service.
