Harry Potter Checks In To Jumeirah Beach Over Summer
Sitting pretty on the Arabian Gulf, the Jumeirah Beach Hotel might look like just another luxurious Dubai hotel. Looks can be deceiving, because this summer it will also become a Harry Potter-style Department of Magic.
We're not quite sure if it's corny or clever, but the special deal of the summer (designed, of course, to attract families) is the Wizards and Witches package. Included with your accommodation is a copy of the seventh Harry Potter book, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, a wizard welcome gift, Wizard adventures (whatever they might be) and for the kids, a place in the Jumeirah Beach Hotel Magic School. The press release has been particularly careful about satisfying the concerns and curiosities of prospective guests:
Hotel security has been training all winter ... advising that any dark wizards will be promptly returned to their mortal homes. The local Department of Magic has also been advised of the anticipated influx of promising witches and wizards and has ordered extra broomstick parking outside the hotel.
This offer's valid between 19 July and 18 August, with a minimum three night stay, and starts at AED1,600 per night ($435). We'd go if they'd do magic school for adults, too.
