There are a lot of options for hotels in Dubai. From multiple Hyatts to a self-proclaimed 7-star hotel. I decided on the Park Hyatt for a few reasons. First, the Park Hyatt in Buenos Aires is one of my all-time favorite hotels. And because of that, I would like to stay at and compare as many Park Hyatts as possible. Second, my Diamond Status allowed us to use a confirmed diamond suite upgrade (I booked the hotel with Cash + Points – totaling 10,000 points and $125). Third, the reviews of the hotel were great.
When checking in, I thought I might be able to ask for a Terrace Suite Upgrade, given the late hour and the fact that we were checking out the next morning. Sure enough, they granted us the upgrade from just a standard suite. The Terrace Suite was fantastic. First there were the multiple rooms:
Park Hyatt Dubai – Terrace Suite Living Room
Park Hyatt Dubai – Terrace Suite Bedroom Entryway
Park Hyatt Dubai – Terrace Suite Bedroom
Second, a great bathroom:
Park Hyatt Dubai – Terrace Suite Bathroom
Park Hyatt Dubai – Terrace Suite Bathroom
And third, the terrace. Although we couldn’t really tell that night, the next morning we were able to see that the terrace overlooked the marina.

When we checked in, Diamond amenities of a fruit basket and bottle of wine were provided:
Park Hyatt Dubai – Amenity Basket
Park Hyatt Dubai – Wine Amenity
Another perk of suites at the Park Hyatt in Dubai is the free mini-bar. Needless to say, I packed a lot of it up with me!

Of course the Park Hyatt had other nice touches to the room:
In Room Coffee & Espresso
Amazing Bathroom Amenities
We grabbed breakfast at the restaurant, and sat on a patio overlooking much of the hotel.

At that point, we decided to try a round of golf at the Par 3 golf course right next to the hotel. Club rentals and the 9 holes were relatively inexpensive, and after a victorious round over NSPwife, we went back to the room, showered, and headed to check-out so we could make our way to Al-Maha Resort in a desert preserve about 45 minutes outside of Dubai.
