10/10 Excellent
"Wonderful hotel with impeccably clean and beautiful rooms, great food and a fantastic staff. From the moment you walk into the hotel you feel the luxury of every space and the warmth and kindness of the staff. We were treated to an upgraded room and a delicious chocolate cake for our anniversary celebration. We had celebrated our anniversary there the year before and loved it so much we just had to return despite the recent political turmoil. Our second experience was even better than the first and we can't wait to return next year. Treat yourself to this fantastic hotel, you'll enjoy every moment!"

"The hotel is absolutely gorgeous. Everything is kept immaculate, from the room to the lobby and everything in between. The staff are all incredibly friendly, the amount of dining options is mind blowing, and the best part is that the whole experience is very affordable, especially when comparing to anything you would get in Europe or the United States."

What is a historic hotel like in Dubai?
By choosing a historic hotel, you can stay someplace that has an officially recognised historic designation. A stately home, palace or even a lodge, old police station or skyscraper can be identified as a historic hotel provided that it's a place of special interest. Traditional architecture and period features are often found within the guestrooms or public spaces of such hotels in Dubai, giving a sense of history.
What is the difference between a historic hotel and a heritage hotel?
You'll often hear the term "heritage hotel" in Asia and Europe, while "historic hotel" is more common in the U.S. though overall the terms are quite similar. The physical building and architecture of a historic hotel is generally what's most important. For a heritage hotel, often it's the cultural value as well as how it shaped the community.
Do historic hotels in Dubai have modern facilities?
Hotels include modern conveniences and safety features you expect to find, but every effort is made to preserve historic facades and treasured traditions. Smart TVs, WiFi, updated bathroom facilities and the popular amenities found in most hotels should be available at a historic hotel. Rest assured that when you select a historic hotel in Dubai, you won't find yourself staying at a place that's uncomfortable or rundown.
