Already one of the world's top holiday destinations, the UAE's most populous city is currently gearing up for the Dubai World Expo with the Government's Tourism Vision forecasting 20 million visitors a year by the time of the event in 2020. "With mega-events Dubai World Expo 2020 and 2022 Fifa World Cup in Qatar and a host of major-developments including Al Habtoor City, Bluewaters Island, and Dubailand launching in coming years, we hoteliers are preparing for the significant increase in tourists," said Wajeed Bagwan, General Manager of the newly launched SUBA Hotel in Dubai. "With over 3,000 new keys entering the Dubai market in 2015 alone, SUBA Hotels intend to have an edge over competition with an increased offering and a focus on our unique selling point as Dubai's first 4* boutique SMART hotel with advanced technology facilities.
