I was in Dubai for a business trip with extremely tight schedule. I had only two hours to do some shopping and I am happy that I choose this shopping mall. Great internal architecture, huge and diverse areas for shopping, dinning (check my review for Butcher Shop & Grill), even skiing! Even if you will not go snow-skiing in Dubai,... more

The Mall of Emirates (MoE) is a very complete shopping mall that has almost everything you can ask for (CarreFour, Dubai Ski, Cinema, at least 3 food courts etc). The design of the whole architecture is one masterpiece, although it doesn't look that great from the outside, the interior is definitely one of the best in Dubai! Getting to this... more

This is a Mall on an absolutely mammoth scale! It has several very nice resturants and bars and Ski Dubai is definately worth a look. The other good thing about the malls in Dubai is that they are open on most nights until 10pm so my tip is go a bit later when it is quieter. more

You don't need to shop to check out this amazing work of art. We're talking about a mall, for Pete's sake. I HATE shopping. Yet this place is unreal. It's got it's own indoor ski slope. Come on! Despite all of the high-fashion stores in this mall, the one store that blew my mind was Carrefour. It's like Target, Wal-Mart,... more

The original "Big Mall" in Dubai, it has now been surpassed in both size and grandeur by the new "DUBAI MALL" at the base of the Burj Dubai. Still Mall of the Emirates offers a killer indoor ski park (reviewed separately) and a very nice selection of restaurants. It's proximity to the beach resorts means this mall never go out... more

Although not a big shopper if you go to any malls in dubai make sure you go to this one! We went to the Battuta mall on our first day and it is rubbisg in comparison to this one. If nothing else go to see the ski slope and have something to eat at the Kimpinski hotel. more

Yeah, that's not the cheapest place to shop, but who cares when you can find almost every shop under the one roof? The ski center is worth of seeing, but most of all I loved shops which I can't find in Finland, like Top Shop, Bershka.. And the environment and atmosphere are quite elegant too. more

Ok, This is a Mall that needs to be visited to be understood. With all the big names at the mall on the top floor and a lot of high stree stores this is definatley a place to drop into. However do not go here expecting to find the big bargins other shopping malls in Dubai have to offer. Yes... more

I have been to mega malls in the USA, UK, Singapore, Malaysia, Saudi, South Africa and UAE previously. The Mall of the Emirates is one of the two new malls built in Dubai since my last visit in 2004. I am not someone in awe with these structures as I have now visited so many. The gimmick of a ski... more

Mall of the emirates is just one of the many stupendous malls that Dubai has to offfer. it just happend to have the a snow slope. The snow looks.....artifiical.
