Frommer's "Inside the Bastakiya old quarter area, XVA is one of the best inexpensive finds in Dubai." Full review
Concierge "Artsy expatriates are drawn to XVA, especially on a Wednesday, when it plays host to offbeat art-house films and lectures."
Fodor's "Dubai's first boutique hotel still has a faithful following of trendy guests, and it's easy to see why." Full review
Insight Guides "No other paid accommodation in Dubai can compete with the XVA Gallery’s authentic Arabian offering."
DK Eyewitness "This elegant hotel in a restored courtyard house is full of atmosphere. The stylish hotel rooms are minimalist in design."
Rough Guide "One of Dubai’s very few genuine heritage hotels, this atmospheric gallery-cum-café has seven guest rooms tucked away around the back of a fine old Bastakiya house."
Afar Magazine "There is a running trail along Dubai Creek and the hotel can recommend nearby beaches, and fitness centers at all price points." Full review
Travel + Leisure "Owned and operated by the XVA Gallery, the XVA Hotel is located in the Bastakiya district." Full review

Frommer's "This Hilton (not to be confused with the Hilton Dubai Creek) enjoys one of the best beachfront locations in Dubai." Full review
Fodor's "An ancient hotel by Dubai standards, this resort was located in what was once considered Jumeirah Beach but is now part of the elaborate Dubai Marina."
Lonely Planet "Right on the popular The Walk at JBR, the Hilton remains a solid choice for a family vacation." Full review
Rough Guide "This glitzy Hilton boasts lots of shiny metal and an air of cosmopolitan chic – it’s more of a city-slicker’s beach bolthole than family seaside resort."
Time Out "Step out of the hotel and you’ll be on the popular Jumeirah Beach Residence Walk and have access to hundreds of cafés and shops." Full review
Star Service "Within walking distance of the neighboring Ritz-Carlton and Sheraton, this medium-sized hotel has little pizzazz, but it possesses all the necessary creature comforts to make it a popular base." Full review
