The Kempinski is attached to the biggest shopping mall outside North America, which is home to the only indoor ski slope in the UAE. So if your idea of a holiday centres on bagging as many designer labels as you can and fitting in a spot of skiing in-between, then the Kempinski is very much the place for you.

Once you’ve shopped ‘til you’ve dropped, you can take some time out at the hotel’s Wellness Centre and spa where the emphasis is on ayurvedic treatments. If you can’t bear to be far from the ski slope for long, you can stay in one of the 15 chalets that overlook the slope. The chalets and hotel rooms come with all mod cons, including flat screen TVs and DVD players. The decor is homely yet modern and top class service is guaranteed.
