Looking For A Weekend Escape? SLS Dubai Is An Ultra-Chic Sanctuary
Escape the city without leaving it. Discover why SLS Dubai is the ultimate staycation spot
If a getaway is on your mind but the idea of airport queues and long-haul flights feels less than appealing, SLS Dubai offers the perfect alternative – an ultra-stylish staycation that captures the essence of a luxury retreat without leaving the city.

Rising like a sculptural icon in the heart of Business Bay, SLS Dubai is more than just a hotel – it’s an experience. From the moment you step inside, SLS Dubai hits pause on the chaos. Everything here is elevated yet effortless. The rooms are minimal and modern, with floor-to-ceiling windows that pour in golden light and bathtubs that overlook both skyline and sky. It’s the kind of space that makes you slow down – because why rush when everything you need is right here? Each room is designed to feel like a cocoon – sleek, minimal, and softly glamorous, with deep soaking tubs that overlook the skyline and interiors that whisper quiet luxury. Whether you’re checking in for a romantic stay or solo reset, the space sets the tone for slowing down with intention.

A visit to the Ciel Spa is more than just an indulgence – it’s a ritual. Rooted in mindful luxury, the treatments here are tailored to restore balance and serenity. From a deep tissue massage to a glow-boosting facial, or simply unwinding in the steam room, the entire experience is curated to restore and rejuvenate. Every detail – from the soft scent that greets you upon arrival to the gentle warmth of the post massage towel wrap – is crafted to linger long after you leave.

Then there’s dining. For evenings that call for drama and decadence, Carna by Dario Cecchini delivers. With dark wood interiors, candlelit corners, and the culinary philosophy of Italy’s most famous butcher at its heart, this elevated steakhouse turns dinner into a statement.

On the other hand, Fi’lia, an award-winning restaurant, is light, vibrant, and soulful – a celebration of female-led Italian cuisine. Expect handmade pastas, Neapolitan-style pizzas, and fresh Mediterranean flavours served alongside unforgettable views of the Burj Khalifa. Whether it’s an intimate weekday lunch or their lively brunches, Fi’lia offers food that feels both comforting and exciting.

Beyond the rooms, spa, and restaurants, SLS Dubai is built around moments. Lounging at the rooftop infinity pool is like floating above the city, with cocktails in hand and skyline views as far as the eye can see. For something livelier, Privilege – the rooftop lounge and nightlife venue – is perfect for sundowners and weekend vibes. There’s also S Bar, an elegant hideaway in the lobby, ideal for afternoon tea or pre-dinner drinks. And if you’re in the mood for something a littler moodier after dark, Smoke & Mirrors – the South American inspired lounge on the 74th floor is perfect for a late-night Cuban inspired cocktail, cigar, or people-watching with skyline views.

Whether you’re in the mood to celebrate a special occasion with something elevated or simply looking for a reset that doesn’t require a boarding pass, SLS Dubai delivers on all fronts: luxury, comfort, vibe, and convenience.
