Hub Zero Dubai Reviews
Took three grandchildren here, arrived at 2 and had to drag them out at 7 They loved it all and thought the staff were brilliant, friendly, and they loved talking to them. (It might have been the kids Scottish accent). It was also good that they could have food and drink in the place and didn’t have to go outside for that. There were three very tired kids that night.
This place is great for teen kids and (youg) adults who love gaming! I went with my 15 year old son, while my wife and daugther went shopping in the city walk shopping mall. There are about 7 or 8 big games of which 1 is a 'real-world' physical game (climbing, very spectacular!) and the others involve virtual reality, lasergaming, racing and other types of games. In addition to that the place is littered with all sorts of arcade games, pinball machines and such (which are not included in the entrance fee, by the way). You can play the games as many times as you want. I did not have high expectations, but in the end we spend almost 4 hours there, and it was great!
