I have also booked hotels from this site, both in Dubai, and the USA:

Please note that, during the Dubai Shopping Festival March 1-31, 2002 and the World Cup Horse Race - 23 March, 2002, hotel rooms will be scarce, and discounts almost impossible to find!
As previously stated, most of the "beach" hotels are at least 30 mins drive from the centre of Dubai. The exception is the Dubai Marine Beach Resort and Spa, which is just opposite the Jumeirah Mosque(nice building) and about 10-15 minutes from Dubai centre. I stayed there Summer 2000, and have no complaints!
