voco Bonnington Dubai is inviting guests to press pause with a new 36-hour staycation offer, built for travellers who want more than a rushed overnight stay. Rather than checking in for a single night and rushing out the next morning, guests can check in from 9am and check out at 9pm the following day, unlocking a full day and a half at the hotel for the price of one night.

The extended format is designed around the idea that a proper break needs more than a few hours to actually feel like one. Guests have an extra afternoon, evening and full day to make use of the hotel rather than squeezing everything into a single overnight, whether that means a long lie-in, a lazy breakfast, an afternoon by the pool, or simply having somewhere comfortable to work from before heading back out into the city. Breakfast is included on both mornings, so guests can ease into each day without the usual checkout-time pressure, and children stay free, with complimentary meals from the kids’ menu for the full length of the stay.

Location adds to the appeal. voco Bonnington Dubai sits just minutes from DMCC Metro, Dubai Marina and JBR, giving guests quick access to the beach, marina walk and the city’s business districts, while the hotel itself offers enough to make staying in just as tempting, from the gym and pool to its food and beverage outlets offering guests a place to unwind without needing to go far. It is this mix of connectivity and comfort that makes the 36-hour format work particularly well here, guests get the flexibility to explore Dubai on their own schedule, with a relaxed, well-equipped base to return to in between.

The offer is bookable for stays until 6 September 2026, and forms part of a wider IHG Hotels & Resorts initiative running across more than 190 hotels and resorts in the Middle East, Africa, India and South Asia, giving guests the same extended-stay flexibility wherever they choose to book.

From floral matcha blends to bold espresso creations, the new line-up captures the essence of the season in every sip

James Café introduces a new collection of seasonal beverages, bringing together vibrant flavours, elevated ingredients, and a fresh take on café classics.

At the heart of the new menu is a creative exploration of matcha, reimagined through a series of distinctive flavour pairings. From the tangy brightness of Hibiscus Matcha to the soft, aromatic notes of Lavender Matcha, each drink balances the earthy depth of ceremonial-grade matcha with a unique seasonal twist. Variations such as Vanilla Matcha and Berry Matcha introduce a smoother, more indulgent profile, combining creamy textures with subtle sweetness.

For coffee lovers, the offering leans into both comfort and experimentation. The Crème Espresso delivers a rich, full-bodied coffee topped with a silky foam and a hint of vanilla, while the more adventurous Volcano Espresso pairs bold espresso with ginger ale and vanilla, creating a layered drink with a distinctive, slightly smoky finish.

Each beverage is priced at AED 32 and is available across all James Café locations in Abu Dhabi. Designed to reflect the lighter, brighter mood of the season, the menu blends delicate florals, fruity notes, and bold coffee profiles, offering something for every palate, whether you’re looking for something refreshing, indulgent, or quietly comforting.

Highlights from the seasonal menu:

• Hibiscus Matcha — a bright, lightly tart blend of green tea and hibiscus
• Lavender Matcha — a delicate floral infusion with a smooth, creamy finish
• Berry Matcha — a fruity, vibrant take on ceremonial matcha
• Vanilla Matcha — soft, comforting, and subtly sweet
• Crème Espresso — rich espresso topped with silky foam and vanilla notes
• Volcano Espresso — bold espresso with ginger ale and a smoky finish
