Best way to try and get a room upgrade at a hotel in Dubai??

Your not going to find this easy.

gambling is illegal in dubai so bribery isnt going to get you anwywhere (gets you everywhere in america but this isnt america !)

Your best hope is to explain on check in that its your wedding anniversary and you've arranged a special holiday for it.

Say you're a property tycoon.

...or not.

tell them you work for the Mossad and if they don't upgrade your room you will downgrade their lives (i.e casket job)

WOW

Thanks for all the fantastic suggestions!

I think I'll go down the "special occasion" route - believe me, you do not want me posting pics of me walking in there naked!!
