How do I get a cab from Dubai International (DXB) to my hotel, and how much in local currency?

Follow signs to the official terminal taxi rank; Dubai Airports says taxis operate 24/7. Its published airport starting fare is AED 25. That is NOT the total to your hotel: metered distance and applicable charges are added. Tell the driver your hotel and district; ask for the likely total and a receipt. A current hotel-specific quote needs your destination, not your personal booking details.
