Address: Al fahidi street, Bastakiya area , Dubai , United arab emirates Show on map
One of the city's few inns, the Orient Guest House occupies a converted home in the historic Bastakia Quarter. It's big on charm and far from the chaos of the city's traffic and noise.Tucked down a hidden pedestrian alley in the Bastakia Quarter, the city's only authentic historic district, the Orient captures the feeling of old Dubai. Rooms in the former home surround a central courtyard; each is styled with carved wooden headboards, delicate chandeliers, and velvety-soft, jewel-tone fabrics. Alas, the bathrooms are tiny and the pillows thin, but the charming service and romantic vibe more than compensate.

It's a quick walk to the must-see Dubai Museum (tel: 353 1862; Al Fahidi St). Afterwards, fill your shopping bags at the adjacent Bur Dubai Souq, before crossing the Creek by abra to explore the vibrant souqs of Deira. For a romantic dinner, book a table at Bastakia Nights (tel: 353 7772), right around the corner from the inn, and hold hands by candlelight.
