Where can I take a shower at Dubai Airport?

The Exhaustingly Exhaustive Dubai Airport Shower Guide

All prices and info accurate as of June 2014.

Marhaba lounge

The Marhaba lounge in T3 Concourse A (between gates A2/A3) has rather nice showers, easily on a par with a four-star hotel. A shower alone without lounge access costs Dhs 55 (~US$15), including towel and cosmetics kit (shampoo, body soap, toothbrush, shaving kit, etc). Just beware that in the muggy Dubai summer, even “cold” water is lukewarm, and ventilation is kind of minimal so it gets pretty sauna-like pretty fast if you shower too long. Opening the cubicle door provides rapid relief though. There might be a queue (even longer than the free shower). Overall score, 8/10.

  • Full lounge access is Dhs 190 (~US$50), which gets you a buffet, internet access, and a buggy transfer to your gate as well.
  • Bonus: Lounge access is free with a “Titanium, Platinum or World” MasterCard if (per the T&Cs) issued in the Middle East & Africa, although enforcement appears to be a bit loose.

Dubai International Hotel

You can take a shower at any of the many Dubai International Hotel outlets, including the one in Concourse A, for US$15. Not tested yet.

G-Force Health Club

Access to the G Force Health Club gym (including showers), at T3 Concourse B only, elevator to level 5 right opposite the elevators to the Gate A trains, can be purchased for Dhs 70 (~US$19) for 1.5 hours. The gym is basic but does the job: treadmill, stationary bike, multipurpose machine, dumbbells. The shower, on the other hand, is rather nice, the amenity pack includes everything down to Q-tips and you even get a bathrobe. Plus water is cooler and it doesn’t steam up as badly as Marhaba’s version. Overall score, 10/10!

Public showers

There are clearly signposted free public showers in Coucourse A, near gate A1 right opposite the Le Clos wine shop. These look clean but no-frills, you’ll need to bring your own towel and toiletries (there is a soap dispenser), and there was a (short) queue when I came to take a look (but it might be shorter than the Marhaba lounge). Apparently Concourse B has a similar setup at gate B13, and there are a few signs pointing the way.

Per Sleeping in Airports, the free showers in Terminal 3 can be found near these gates:

Terminal 3, between Gates A1 – A24, Gates B13 – B19 and Gates C18 and C22.
