What the community said
There's currently no tourism tax charged at hotel checkout. Alcohol service in hotels stops at 11 PM. If you have unused meal vouchers from excursions, you can use them for lunch/dinner on your departure day. Airport transfer takes under an hour without traffic.

Some travelers get booking rejections officially blamed on the hotel, but the real reason is likely suspiciously low/dumped rates rather than an actual hotel refusal.

Whether Dubai's hotel tourism tax has been suspended is a common concern for travelers budgeting their trip.
