Or if you prefer to take a taxi, you can get from the hotel to Expo 2020 in 15 minutes. There’s free parking at the hotel, and parking facilities at the Expo 2020 site, making driving there a breeze.
You’ll also find Premier Inn Dubai Ibn Battuta Mall within easy reach of Expo 2020 Dubai. The hotel has direct access to Ibn Battuta Mall and is connected to Dubai Metro, so when you’ve completed your visit to Expo 2020, you can pick up souvenirs and more at the mall. Or hop on the Metro and head to Dubai Marina and JBR to soak up the city vibes with beachside restaurants, marina boat cruises and marvel at Ain Dubai, the world’s tallest Ferris wheel.

After you’ve checked-in, and checked-out Expo 2020, there’s so much more to do near your hotel in Dubai.
From Premier Inn Ibn Battuta Mall you can reach The Beach at JBR in 20 minutes or less by car or metro, and spend the day soaking up the rays on the shores of the Arabian Gulf or take a traditional dhow through the Marina and sail past Bluewaters Island, home to Caesars Palace and Ain Dubai.
For more thrills and spills, head to Dubai Parks and Resorts. You’ll find your favourite stars of the big screen like Shrek, Madagascar and the Smurfs as you race between rollercoasters.
With both hotels within easy reach of Dubai Metro, you can zip across the city for a whistle-stop tour of Dubai. Scale new heights at the Burj Khalifa, or take in the local history with an Abra ride along Dubai Creek, stopping at the souks and barter with sellers for gold, spices or silk.
