4 Media Rotana Hotel: Nelson’s is probably the best-known bar at this hotel, drawing in Brits who want a taste of home, only fancier: it serves upmarket bar food and an impressive selection of drinks while screening the English Premier League football. A live DJ in the evenings and a Friday brunch for Dhs85 also pull in the crowds. Prego’s and Channels are other good dining options here.

5 The Palladium: This impressive arena seats 3,000 people and will soon be one of the biggest venues in Dubai for theatre productions, concerts and large-scale conferences. It wowed Dubai’s ravers recently when it hosted top class DJ Paul Van Dyk, while rumour has it they have come more huge stars on the cards for the near future, from ballet companies to pop superstars.
