Had a great stay in this hotel. After a long flight from Sydney, Australia we arrived at the hotel at around 9am. Check-in was slow and the reception area is not quite what I expected (but don't let this put you off). We had paid for the previous night's acommodation so we didn't have to wait long to get our... more

Top hotel. The location is good; its in Bur Dubai and very close to the creek. You can catch a taxi very quickly from outside; and well; the porter will do it for you. The lobby is very welcoming and the staff are very friendly. The highlight is the room! excellent design, rooms are decently sized; very clean and the... more

Superb location, right across the street from the Dubai Museum and just a few blocks from the Grand Mosque and the Bur Dubai Souk area. Near a water taxi stand, too, so easy to get from the hotel across Dubai Creek to the Gold and Spice Souks! Enjoyed the Middle Eastern charm at the hotel from the room decor to... more

Arabaian courtyard is a good hotel in the centre of dubai close to the dubai musem and the bur dubai souqs and water taxis (abras). A comfortable hotel with all the amenties -. the only draw back as others have mentioned is the small pool (and noisey children in the day we went) and the crappy house wine at the... more

This hotel is by no means luxurious but it is adequate comfortable and clean.All the staff were friendly and helpful.Our room wasn't ready when we arrived early in the morning so we decided to upgrade to an executive room on the 7th floor and were able to get in straight away.The executive rooms have their own lounge where you are... more

I stayed in this hotel for 5 nights recently in March 2008. Check in was very quick. We were in a room on the 1st floor looking out at the Dubai Museum. The room is really spacious – the bathroom is very small then in comparison but we were very impressed with it. The only complaint I would have was... more

Ugh, thank God we stayed in this hotel for only one night! Thanks to other people's positive comments, travel brochure's praises and categorization of four stars I had a high hopes for Arabian Courtyard. At first I noticed nice location near Dubai Creek, yeah. But the first disappoiment came immediately in the reception. We had just stay few nights in... more

We stayed here only one night and for that we are grateful! On arrival we discovered our room not ready. After a long drive in the heat this was more than disappointing as we only had 24 hours in Dubai and wanted to make the most of it. The chap on reception was not at all apologetic and in fact... more

The hotel is a fairly decent place to stay for an overnight. Rooms are roomy enough and if you are a heavy sleeper you wont be bothered by the noise of traffic that is present 24h a day. Unfortunately to the those that have little interest in prayer times, there is a mosque located right next door so prayers are... more
