hi. I study at education city , I do not think there is hotel near the EC and if there is it will be difficult to get taxi. My advice is to go to hotel in Alsadd Area about 20 minutes by car to EC and very easy to get taxi. The hotel i recommend is villa moda ( Cheap alternative and it is like apartments and you can rent by day or month) , Other is millennium hotel and Ramada .

If you need any further help , contact me
