The Atlantis is one of the most iconic hotels in Dubai, located at the apex of The Palm in Jumeirah and home to the glamorous Saffron Buffet!

Dubai is home to some of the most luxurious beachside resorts on the planet, and while I’ve never booked a stay, I was privileged enough to experience the Atlantis Hotel’s restaurant facilities in 2016. 10 years later, I still remember the amazing quality and variety of mouthwatering food at the Saffron Buffet!

Awesome Exhibits

Architecturally, the Atlantis is truly an eye-catching work of art. Featuring a combination of Arabian architecture with modern aesthetics, it gives off something of an Aladdin castle vibe. You can expect to pay between 1,800 and 4300 AED (490 – 1,170 USD) per night at this 5-star resort, a hefty price but an unforgettable stay!

The Architectural Pro

The architectural prowess of the Atlantis Hotel is just as potent on the inside as it is on the outside. A luxurious and artistic interior design with eye-catching exhibits and ocean-themed artworks will put your mind in a state of wonderlust. Mermaid fin pillars that shape into arches like that of a classic Dubai mosque deliver a true Arabian Sea sensation!

The Saffron Buffet!

To this day, I can remember the jaw-dropping restaurant that was the Saffron Buffet. It was a place that had visitors from all over the world rejoice in the highest quality gourmet dishes from international cuisines. Whether you were craving premium Japanese sashimi, succulent English roast chicken, or a soulful Indian chicken tikka curry, the Saffron Buffet had you covered!

In addition to delicious food from all over the world, they have a range of special drinks too! If you’re a first-timer in Dubai, I highly recommend their signature lemon and mint drink for a refreshing wake-me-up. Make sure to save room for dessert, because Saffron Buffet offers all kinds of gourmet treats like cheese tarts, creme caramel, and even a chocolate fountain!
