Grand Cosmopolitan Hotel
Rooftop terrace with room for the whole family
About this hotel
This five-star hotel pairs a rooftop terrace with three separate restaurants and outdoor swimming pools, a combination built for groups who want variety rather than a single fixed dinner spot every night. Family rooms and a children's playground round out the property, making it one of the more workable five-star options here for travelers with kids in tow. A 24-hour front desk, room service and currency exchange cover the practical side of a longer stay, while free private parking and full air-conditioning keep the basics comfortable throughout. It sits 7.7 km from Jumeirah Beach, close enough for a beach day without making the hotel itself feel disconnected from the coast.

Our take
This is a five-star pick for families or larger groups who want a rooftop terrace without giving up the practical extras, three restaurants, a playground and round-the-clock service. Couples looking for a quieter, more intimate rooftop scene without children nearby should probably look at a smaller boutique property elsewhere on this list instead.
- ✓Book a family room if traveling with kids, since the playground and family-friendly layout are built around exactly that trip type.
- ✓Ask about currency exchange at the front desk rather than searching for a separate exchange counter elsewhere in the city.
- ✓Reserve at one of the three restaurants in advance if you want a specific cuisine on a particular evening.
