Charming boutique property in old Dubai, with wonderful art, including a gallery and unique gift shop. Restaurant in the beautiful courtyard was excellent. A great place to wind up at the end of the day.

This is one of the few properties in Dubai where you can stay right in the middle of the historic district and walk to the textile, spice and gold souks. It is a wonder boutique hotel with unique rooms, great food and delightful, friendly service.

Amazing hotel
Amazing boutique hotel in the middle of historical district of Al Fahidi. We wanted to take a break from the steel and glass high rises and didn’t regret it. The hotel is combined with cafe and art gallery. The staff is very friendly and helpful. The breakfast in cafe is lovely. All rooms are designed in different traditional style. We had room 10, designed in Turkish tarboosh theme. The location can’t be more perfect to explore old Dubai. We were able to walk to Al Seef. The Al Ghubaiba ferry station and Al Fahidi metro is also nearby, so we could travel to business district and Burj Khalifa by metro and to Marina by ferry and Deira soul by abra. Will be definitely come back!

The place is hard to find. Taxis don't know exactly where it is. You have to walk around the historic site to find it. The rooms are clean. You really have to like rustic looks to appreciate this place. If you want modern amenities, this place is not for you. They had Perrier water and regular water in the fridge..no mention of costs associated for the Perrier..then they charged nearly$15 Canadian for 2 small bottles of Perrier which I found to be totally out of the norm. overall good spot

Off the beaten track.
The XVA is a very interesting place. If you choose, know that it is located in a fully pedestrian area, so your taxi cannot take you to them, you will have to be dropped off on the main road and then walk in a little. Not a bad thing, if you know it in advance! The room we got had all we needed and was really clean with working zircon (you need it), however, based on the photos on their page we expected something a little less crammed. That said, our son had a very comfortable armchair-bed, which he loved, and we slept well in our bed. Overall a very good experience, and the neighbourhood was full of flavorous from the Middle East and the East, which we loved.
