InterContinental Residences Dubai Business Bay by IHG
A rooftop pool with a separate kids' pool
About this hotel
This Business Bay property pairs its rooftop swimming pool with a separate kids' pool, letting adults and children use the water on their own terms rather than sharing a single deck. A sauna and terrace sit alongside the main pool, and a garden with free bicycles gives guests a way to explore the grounds beyond the rooftop itself. Rooms lean luxurious, with private check-in and check-out and a fitness centre for guests keeping up a routine. The restaurant serves Mediterranean cuisine in a family-friendly setting, and an ice-skating rink sits nearby for a change of pace from the pool. A fitness centre covers guests wanting a workout routine, and the family-friendly restaurant's Mediterranean menu gives the property a distinct dining identity within Business Bay.

Our take
This suits families who want a rooftop pool without sharing the main deck with young children splashing nearby, thanks to the separate kids' pool. Business Bay's distance from the coast, 16km from the airport and further from the beach, keeps rates lower than a Marina equivalent. Guests chasing walking-distance beach access should book JBR or Marina instead, since this property's setting is business-district rather than waterfront.
- ✓Use the separate kids' pool if traveling with young children, keeping the main rooftop pool quieter for adults.
- ✓Take the free bicycles around the garden grounds for a break from the rooftop pool deck itself.
- ✓Book the nearby ice-skating rink for an afternoon out of the sun during Dubai's hottest months.

Why guests love itTravelers staying here with kids found the separate kids' pool made a real difference, since it meant the rooftop deck stayed calmer for adults while younger children had their own shallower space nearby. The garden and free bicycles gave the whole family something to do beyond the pool itself most afternoons. Mediterranean dining in a family-friendly setting rounded out the stay, and the nearby ice-skating rink became a welcome change of pace on one of the hotter days during the trip.
