If you are looking for an American-style, 4 or 5 star experience for comfort and service, the Orient Guest House is not for you. The mattress was semi-hard and both pillows were nearly flat , linen/bathroom supplies were replaced sporadically, it appeared as though the floors weren't swept out during our entire visit, and our room was not serviced at... more

I stayed in the Orient Guest House for 2 nights on July 2009. The hotel and the rooms were nice but believe me inside it was an oven. I asked the receptionist 3 times to check the A/C as I believe it was not working at its full power. The tv channels that were available in my room were the... more

The Orient is a fabulous alternative to one of Dubai's generic hotels. Great location in the old part of town. It is very quiet except for the mosque next door and even that adds to the atmosphere! Friendly and helpful staff. Nice, simple breakfast. Efficient air conditioning which can be left on while you are out. The rooms are quaint.... more

The Orient Guest House was in a great location in the old Bastakiya within a few minutes walk of all the souks and local restaurants. The service at the hotel was good and is owned by Arabian Courtyard hotel so we got to use the pool and "Sherlock Holmes" bar there and everyone was very helpful. The rooms were lovely... more

Thanks to those people who put me onto the Orient Guest House in the Bastakiya Quarter Dubai. I have recently stayed there for three nights with my husband and another couple and we all thought it was wonderful. Managed to get the room with the 4 poster bed-thanks to the hint from one of the reviews but our friends room... more

All the previous reveiws are true. The things I could add are that the Guest House was very clean, and the service personnel were helpful and friendly. The Guest House is in a quiet, calm oasis, located in the Bastakiya section, which is bordered by a densely populated area on one side, the busy Creek on another, and the Grand... more

We recently had a stopover for 3 nights in Dubai on our way home to New Zealand and wanted somewhere other than a glitzy hotel to stay in - somewhere with a middle eastern feel. What a find the Orient Guest House turned out to be. It is located in Batakiya an area of barely a square kilometres close to... more

We booked this guest house as we really did not fancy staying in a large chain hotel and we are glad we did. The hotel is situated in the old Bastakiya area of town, in a pedestrianised area which makes it a small oasis of calm in a frantic, bustling area. The members of staff who work there are very... more
