9.2 out of 10, Wonderful, (153)
"The hotel is in the middle of a historical part of Dubai. It is also near Dubai Creek and an "aura" ride across to the Gold Souk. I really loved the cafe, where you could have a refreshing lime mint drink or watermelon juice drink. The room I stayed in was cute and perfect for my needs. The fruit plate was a perfect welcome gift. I wish I had stayed longer. "

Breakfast is Arabic and absolutely amazing. Overall, a mesmerizing stay — though the cost is a bit on the higher side compared to other...
