The drive from DXB to Al Barsha
The usual route is Sheikh Zayed Road or Al Khail Road southwest, leaving at the Mall of the Emirates interchange or one of the Al Barsha exits further along. Late in the evening the drive takes about twenty-five minutes; a weekday rush can make it forty-five. The Sheikh Zayed Road route passes Salik gates, charged at cost.
Al Barsha 1, the hotel strip and the villas
Al Barsha 1, behind Mall of the Emirates, has the densest cluster of hotels and apartments, many on parallel streets that look much alike. Al Barsha 2 and 3 and Al Barsha South are mostly villas and low-rise buildings. Pick your exact hotel or building in the address search; for a villa, a pin on the gate is the surest way.
Kempinski Hotel Mall of the Emirates and Sheraton Mall of the Emirates are attached to the mall itself, with their own entrances, and the chauffeur goes to the hotel door rather than the mall's.
Back to the airport
Al Barsha is well placed for both directions: the motorways are a few minutes away. Mall of the Emirates traffic builds in the evening and at weekends, so on those days add a little time to leave the area.
A practical base between the old city and the Marina
Al Barsha sits roughly halfway along Sheikh Zayed Road, with the Mall of the Emirates metro station on the Red Line and a wide choice of mid-size hotels and serviced apartments. That makes it a sensible base if your week mixes meetings in DIFC with evenings in the Marina, and the drive back to the airport is predictable outside the rush hours.
