3 Best Bed and Breakfast in Dubai (2026)

Independently ranked by our review of ratings, reviews and reputation · How we chose

By Lorian Hartfield, Real Estate and Financial Expert · ✓ Data verified July 2026 · 6 min read

Bed and breakfast in Dubai covers a wider range than the name suggests, from a design hotel with a breakfast program to a converted heritage guesthouse in Old Dubai. The three options here have logged 17,459 reviews between them, though almost all of that volume sits with a single name, so the review count alone tells you a lot about which one to check first.

Short answer: Rove City Walk dominates on data with 4.9 stars across 17,382 reviews, making it by far the most reviewed and highest rated option here. Heritage Home Guest House offers a very different experience at 4.4 from 64 reviews, a small heritage guesthouse in Old Dubai's Bur Dubai district. Budget stays start well under hotel rates if you're comfortable with a shared or basic setup.

Rove City Walk

4.917,382 Google reviews

Rove City Walk is a design-focused hotel on Al Badaa Street in Al Wasl, part of the Rove chain built around a younger, value-conscious traveler with full-service amenities. The property runs its own restaurant and bar program alongside standard rooms, and its review volume, over 17,000 and counting, dwarfs everything else on this page.

What people praise

  • Overwhelming review volume backs up the rating
  • Staff repeatedly named individually for attentive, warm service
  • Breakfast quality gets specific, repeated praise
  • Central Al Wasl location near City Walk and Burj Khalifa views

Worth knowing

  • A guest noted the room view can be modest depending on which side of the building you're on

Our take: The clear default here on both scale and consistency. Its review base is large enough that the 4.9 rating carries real statistical weight.

Heritage Home Guest House

4.464 Google reviews

Heritage Home Guest House operates out of a converted traditional building near Al Ghubaiba metro station in Bur Dubai, close to Dubai's historic creek district. The property leans into its heritage architecture, wooden floors and antique decor, rather than modern hotel amenities, and guests consistently frame it as a cultural stay rather than a standard hotel substitute.

What people praise

  • Distinctive heritage architecture and decor guests describe as a highlight
  • Walking distance to Al Ghubaiba metro and Old Dubai's historic sites
  • Staff, including the owners, praised by name for personal hospitality
  • Noticeably lower price point than standard hotels nearby

Worth knowing

  • A guest flagged noise carrying from a main passageway near certain rooms

Our take: The most distinctive stay on this list for anyone who wants character over convenience, though its review base is far smaller than Rove's.

Bed Space near metro station

4.313 Google reviews

Bed Space Near Metro Station is a basic serviced accommodation option near Dubai Mall in Al Wasl, aimed squarely at travelers prioritizing price and location over amenities. Reviews describe an older building with a straightforward, no-frills setup rather than a curated guesthouse experience.

What people praise

  • Notably cheap relative to nearby hotel rates
  • Close proximity to Dubai Mall

Worth knowing

  • One guest described the building as older and not well maintained, so set expectations accordingly

How we score these

Rating is the live Google average. Review volume shows how many guests actually left feedback, weighed against the others on this page, which is why a listing with a handful of reviews scores lower on confidence even at a similar rating. Recency tracks how recently people are still reviewing. No listing can pay to change these numbers.

How much does a bed and breakfast cost in Dubai? (2026)

Rates here span a wide range, from a design hotel’s standard nightly pricing down to a basic shared-style stay, and none of the three published a fixed rate card we could verify at the time of writing.

Staying across Dubai

These stays cover Al Wasl near City Walk and Dubai Mall, plus Bur Dubai’s historic creek district near Al Ghubaiba metro. If you’re searching for bed and breakfast options near you in Dubai, Al Wasl puts you closer to Downtown and the Burj Khalifa, while Bur Dubai suits anyone prioritizing the old town, souks, and creek crossings.

What to ask before you book in Dubai

  • Is breakfast actually included in the nightly rate, or billed separately?
  • Is the property licensed for short-term tourist stays under Dubai’s holiday-home rules?
  • How far is the walk to the nearest metro station from the property?
  • Is there a tourism dirham fee added at checkout, and how much is it per night?
  • Are rooms air-conditioned individually, and is that confirmed before booking in summer?
  • What’s the cancellation policy if travel plans change?

Frequently asked questions

Are these rankings paid?

No. Rankings come from public Google data. A business can pay to be a Featured Partner (badge and top placement), but that never changes another business’s score or position.

How did you choose these stays?

We pulled real Google ratings and review counts for bed and breakfast style accommodation across Dubai, then ranked them on a blend of rating, review volume, and how recently guests are still reviewing them.

How often is this updated?

We refreshed this list in July 2026. Ratings and review counts shift over time, so confirm current pricing and availability directly with the property.

Is Rove City Walk really a bed and breakfast?

It’s technically a hotel with a strong breakfast program rather than a traditional B&B, but it’s included here because it’s the closest full-service match with the deepest review record in this category.

Which of these is closest to Old Dubai’s souks?

Heritage Home Guest House in Bur Dubai is the closest option to the historic creek district, souks, and Al Ghubaiba metro station.

The bottom line

Rove City Walk is the safe default given its scale and consistency, but Heritage Home Guest House is worth a serious look if you want a genuinely different, character-driven stay near Old Dubai. Either way, confirm the tourism dirham fee is included in your quoted rate before you book.
