Voco Dubai The Palm

[Tracy]

I have a reservation here from 17th December 2022. The IHG website now states booking available from 15th December but you can’t actually book until mid January 2023. I booked a while ago, they obviously thought they would be opening earlier than December. What’s my chances of actually getting to stay on 17th December? Thinking I might need a backup plan!

Have a backup naturally, and asap before they continue to go up in price.

I’m interested to see a review of this hotel when it does finally open.

I’ve booked a few nights for the beginning of February. We’re actually going to be based at the IC Festival City but have booked this hotel too in case fancy a night or 2 beach based instead.

For our dates, both the IC and Voco were circa 30k points pn. They’re now both bouncing around 45k.

Yes, have a backup. IHG are though to deal with in regards to finding new accommodation. I got CEO involved last time.

I have now booked Conrad and Intercontinental Marina as backups. I also booked the Voco when it was 30k points, Intercontinental is average 55k per night for my nights…first time to Dubai and only there for 2 nights, no idea where to stay lol.

@SRF if I do get to stay, I’ll come back with an update 🙂

@Tracy Excellent. We’ve never been either but chose the IC Festival City on recommendation as will be with a toddler and apparently is young child friendly.

Best of luck with your trip and hope the Voco works out for you.
