World Traveller Middle East readers have been voting for their favourite hotels and destinations around the globe – and the results for the best hotel restaurant in the Middle East are in…
WINNER: Akira Back Dubai, W Dubai – The Palm, UAE
This is a category in which you were quite literally spoiled for choice, with so many different restaurants voted for. Taking its seat at the top of the table, however, is Akira Back Dubai, where the head chef’s inventiveness (particularly when it comes to moreish vegan dishes) ensures the restaurant always stays one step ahead. Sublime steaks obviously tickle your tastebuds too, with meat maestros Oak Room in Abu Dhabi and Dubai’s cloud-piercing Prime 68 also making the cut.

HIGHLY COMMENDED
Oak Room, The Abu Dhabi Edition, Abu Dhabi, UAE
Prime 68, JW Marriott Marquis Hotel, Dubai, UAE
