Cobalt Glimmer

Floor-to-ceiling windows frame skyline views at this modern pad, perched in Dubai's buzzing downtown. Whether you're lounging on the sofa, working at the desk or nibbling on dinner, you'll find it hard to tear your gaze away. What's more, guests enjoy access to the building's communal gym and shared swimming pool, so you get all the perks of a hotel with the comfort and independence of a homestay. Location-wise, you're just a short walk from both the tallest building in the world and the world's largest mall. That's shopping and sightseeing sorted.

Home truths:
*The entrance to this building is shared with other guests – the gym and swimming pool are also shared *This is a central spot, so there’s a chance you may hear some noise *Although you won’t need a car in Dubai, there’s one free parking spot on the premises if you plan on driving *You'll have the option to self check-in upon arrival *There’s a desk in the bedroom if you need to work from home *Compared to the rest of the apartment, we think the bathroom and kitchen are a tad dated
