Large comfortable hotel with excellent location in Bur Dubai: at walking distance from the souks, museum (temporarily closed), restaurants and cafés along the creek. The room was spacious and the bathroom recently renovated (new plumbing). A round table and a large desk provided ample space for laptop + your documents or other objects. I appreciated the "multicultural" electric socket mounted right on the side of the desk. Wifi signal in the room was sufficiently strong and stable during all my stay. Hotel also offers free access to a Business center equipped with 3 PC's (W7) and 1 printer. An ATM can be found outside the hotel, at about 30 m distance. The near-self-sufficiency is completed by excellent in-house restaurants: Chinese, Indian, Arabic/Egyptian (temporarily closed), Pub "Sherlock Holmes", and a Cafeteria. Their efficient and friendly personnel make the atmosphere relaxed and happy, prone to protracted lingering, particularly in the Pub (the Indian couple) and in the Cafeteria (Ms. Christine). I certainly will return to this place at my next visits in Dubai.

Carelessness in listing the hotel features on booking.com : (1) Upper floors accessible by stairs only ; upper floors accessible by elevator. - This cannot be true simultaneously. My testimony: there ARE elevators. (2) Having a Business center is an important asset of the hotel. Regrettably, it is not mentioned on booking.com.

I recently stayed at the Arabian Courtyard Hotel in Dubai and had an exceptional experience. The hotel’s location, ambiance, and services are remarkable, but what truly stood out was the outstanding hospitality provided by two Pakistani women at the counter. They were warm, professional, and incredibly helpful throughout my stay. They ensured all my needs were met promptly and went above and beyond to make me feel welcome. Their friendly demeanor and dedication to customer satisfaction left a lasting impression. The hotel’s facilities, cleanliness, and overall atmosphere complemented their impeccable service, making my stay truly enjoyable. I highly recommend the Arabian Courtyard Hotel and commend the staff for their excellent service. I look forward to staying here again!

A very well positioned hotel in Bur Dubai and with easy access to the metro. Close to local souks (Al Seef is lovely and much less hassle than the Grand Souk). Also very easy for getting the Abra over the Creek to the Old Souk/Gold Souk for further down river. The hotel was comfortable and the breakfasts were excellent with plenty of choice both Asian and Western. We would definitely stay here again as very good value.

A frustration on checking out as this was at about 06:00 and before breakfast. We had asked the day before (and reconfirmed in the evening) that it would be possible to have a packed breakfast and this was confirmed but when we checked out the staff on duty knew nothing about this.

centrally located in Bur Dubai opposite the Dubai museum, close to creek, gold and spices souk and shopping area. value for money

checking in needs improvement. need more experienced staff. This is priority as first point of contact for customer services

The location and the staff. Mr Peter the manager there is super nice and helpful. He has always been kind and well spoken. Mr Ismail the help staff has always been super active ready to help always. Front desk people were nice as well. There is a cleaning staff when I was in Room 817, I am forgetting his name but he was also very prompt and hardworking. Overall nice stay.

The Location was perfect for us as walking distance to shopping, food Joints and 10 minutes to the metro.

No Hot water to shower at Night

Breakfast room does need improving, staff were very pleasant, but the variety of healthy hot meal options was limited.

Having to pay for the sauna & spa, I have not come across that ever. These facilities should be included in the stay & one of the reasons I booked hotels is for access to saunas, steam rooms & spas.

A nice and decent hotel in the old area of Dubai. I don't understand why this hotel has pretty bad review score. Although the hotel is a bit old but everything works fine, including the cleanliness. I like the room decoration with Arabic style. Nice "old Dubai view" with Dubai Museum and a minaret (I guess) from room window, especially early morning. A busy neighborhood vibe (which I like) and several nice restaurants nearby, including Arabic food. A walking distance to metro station. If I want to stay in this area of the city, I will definitely stay in this hotel again. The price worth the value.

The reception lady during the day is a bit arrogant and condescending. She's not so helpful and made arguments over small things as if to show how "clever" she is. She needs to have more training how to deal with customers. But this is just a small matter and doesn't affect my overall stay experience. Other than her, all staff are very kind and helpful.

This was our second time to stay at Arabian Courtyard Hotel... The girl at reception was very friendly and helpful. We requested rooms on the same floor, and they gave it to us . The rooms is big and comfortable... we will come again...

The bathroom could have been a bit cleaner.. The shelves was not dusted ...

When I approached the reception the reception was so buzy but the manager Mr Peter came to me and took me aside and gave me check-in which was very smooth even after the reception staff were buzy he made sure to attend the guest and gave the check in which was very kind of him good hospitality from him also the service was very good
