Get a one night's stay and breakfast with these Dubai brunches
Brunch, nap, party, sleep, breakfast = the perfect weekend…
If there’s two things we love doing in Dubai at the weekend, it’s brunches and staycations. It was only a matter of time before the two started to combine. But rather than shell out a fortune for separate bookings, these tempting offers get you a hotel stay for much cheaper than usual. Whether you’re planning a big birthday celebration with your friends, or you’re looking for a fun date-weekend idea, these are the deals you should be looking for.
Here’s seven brunches that all include a night’s stay.

Not only will you enjoy the brunch but also a night’s stay in one of Renaissance Downtown Hotel’s deluxe rooms, plus breakfast at the modern Middle Eastern restaurant BHAR in the morning.
