Treehouse

Downtown Dubai


At the top of the Taj, this luxe lair treats guests to cracking views of the Burj Khalifa, top-shelf drinks and an outdoor living room setting with potted plants, pillow-packed sofas, pink marble tables and even a candlelit mock fireplace. A chill spot for quiet conversation on weekdays, the action picks up with deep-house DJs on weekends.

On a culinary note, the Treehouse is also gaining steam for its barbecue and sushi Hidden Brunch extravaganza on Fridays (from Dhs299).
