Budget Dubai

OK - It's kinda hard to imagine the words 'budget' and 'Dubai' in the same sentence but according to this New York Times article a number of low-cost hotels are moving into the playground of the rich and famous.

Dubai is known for its excesses -- take for example the $2,000-a-night-seven-star Burj Al Arab hotel (pictured right).

Or - the indoor Ski Dubai complex built at the Mall of the Emirates.

But apparently as prices have been heading skyward so has the collective moan from business people who have to travel there.

If you're planning on a trip to 'Do Buy' then peruse this great article for money saving tips and links.
