It is a good location. It was quiet and I really liked the feeling of history . We were well looked after by Goufer ( not sure of spelling), and Constance.

Beautiful space, mixed staff
The night staff is super helpful. However, the lady during the day is not. The first day we were there, she literally rolled her eyes when we pay the hotel fee with a bigger bill. When asking for restaurant recommendation, she was super curt. She also didn't mention that we need to leave the key to get the room cleaned so we didn't have the room clean both days we were there. Other than that, the space is beautiful and room was comfortable even though it was super hot outside. Good location to explore the souk.

What I love about this hotel is that it gives me an experience of old UAE. The location is perfect--the souks and public transportation are close. The staff are the best, especially Mr. Salman and the lady who ensures we are looked after during breakfasts (I apologise her name slipped my memory)--they really are the heart and soul of the establishment. The only thing I can think of that needs improving is the hotel's bathroom in that it needs to be renovated.

Ahmedia Heritage Guest House
This hotel is at a wonderful location close to souqs and metro link, abras and walking. The staff were excellent and tried in every way possible to help us. The breakfast is substantial and more than met our needs. Alena also offered to make omelets for us in addition to the usual presentation. The beds are comfortable, the room well laid out, and there was plenty of hot water for the shower. This hotel is off the main street and requires a little walking from the nearest taxi access (maybe 75 meters). Once we got our bearings in this location, we were grateful for the seclusion and relatively quiet location. The bedding and towels were of fine quality. This is not an upscale chain hotel; it's a guesthouse and we appreciated the intimacy.

Initially difficult to find and even more difficult to get suitcase from the taxi to the reception. Once you have managed the moving in process, the rest is pretty straight forward. Good lay out, great service and very accommodating staff. Breakfast a fair variety and again staff willing to create selection of different egg dishes.

Nice hotel close to souks
We were moved to another room as soon as we said beds are very hard. staff are so friendly and helpful it made our stay there a lovely experience. Nothing was too much trouble for them. Close to souks and shopping areas but not to far from airport or beaches either. Plenty taxis but walking was a lovely experience of meeting people and seeing so much.

Stay at Ahmedia
The hotel is located slightly on the inside street where you have to walk and go but the hotel staff is cooperative and took us to the hotel. Since I am a pure vegetarian they especially cooked breakfast according to my needs and served me ensuring that I don't remain hungry. Very near to gold souk and creek.

Convenient and atmospheric hotel but room felt bud
Location is convenient and next to heritage landmarks, common areas are nicely designed, but rooms are spread across two buildings (involving walking outside the hotel in public) and the room I had looked and felt more like a cheap budget hotel with old furniture and quite spartan rather than a heritage hotel. Old does not mean heritage... XVA Hotel which I stayed at also did it better - it was more atmospheric.

Special chance to experience a bit of old Dubai
If you want a taste of life in Dubai before international architects and upmarket hotels took over, the Ahmedia Heritage Guest House is just right. It has a homey feel, with all the important comforts, including a nice bathroom ensuite, and lots of charm.

So glad we stayed here!
We found this hotel to be very relaxing and charming. It was not perfect and polished and at times, facilities were in the process of being fixed. However, we did not want to stay in a perfect hotel, but in one that represented the area it is located in and this hotel certainly met that requirement. The hotel is located in a lively, commercial area, where people are busy going about their daily working lives. We found this fascinating and much more interesting than being situated in the more sterile, albeit luxurious hotels that modern Dubai offers. The location of the hotel also means that you can easily walk around the area of Deira and its souks. It also means that you can easily catch the river bus to Bur Dubai and the metro is a short walk away. Breakfast was suitable and whilst not a fantastic spread, it kept the "wolf from the door" and enabled us to start each day not having to worry about where to fuel up beforehand. The staff were very helpful and were a pleasure to meet. We felt safe at all times whilst staying at the hotel and whilst travelling around Dubai itself.

Great Guest House In Dubai
In traveling to Dubai, my husband and I wanted to stay in a local guest house, rather than a large hotel. We chose Ahmedia Guest House based on reviews on Trip Advisor. The experience couldn't have been more pleasant. The night manager Bhawani Singh was one of the most gracious and helpful hosts we have ever stayed with. Every effort was made to assure we had a pleasant stay. We had an early morning flight and Mr. Singh was kind enough to bring a beautiful breakfast to our room before we left. The guest house was arranged and decorated in a very traditional style that was unlike the usual carbon copy rooms of hotels. I would have no hesitation in recommending the Ahmedia to any one that wanted a small, intimated place to stay in Dubai.

Charming hotel
My daughter and I recently stayed at the Ahmedia Heritage Guest House and were very pleased. This traditional style hotel is charming and our room was clean and comfortable. The staff were terrific - friendly, polite and helpful. We loved the location in the older neighbourhood of Deira yet it is very close to the Al Ras metro making it easy to get to other parts of the city.

Nice Hotel close to historical sites
Though we arrived late, after midnight, we were expected and greeted by name. Our suitcases where carried into our room which was bigger than expected. We had a good sleep during a quiet night. The next morning we were permitted by the friendly staff to leave some luggage behind till evening so that we could tour the city without ballast.

An authentic and super friendly experience
I chose this room for the ambience and the location to the historic district. It is walking distance from the gold souk, spice souk, arabian perfume souk, and close to the abra boat rides that cross the Dubai Creek to get to the fabric stores and the local Museum (a must see!). The hotel staff went beyond their way to make our one night stay (we were a family of 4 with 2 kids) comfortable. We came in early and were able to store the carry on luggage, were offered early check-in options by noon, received filtered water to take to our scheduled tour of the city, and were provided with local tips to navigate the city! We were also able to choose out room from two rooms that met our reservation criteria. During checkout, we needed an early checkout so we would have missed our breakfast, but the staff was very accommodating and prepared our included breakfast and sent it to our room by 5:30 AM before his shift ended. This permitted us to leave on time to catch our flight with a full stomach! :) I am so grateful for this additional service. The room was unique: decorated with lanterns and paintings. Also, the bed was very large. All furniture had an antique look which helped us gain a unique experience. The only slight discomfort was the smell in the general area and the heat in the lobby area. I wish they had kept the lobby cooler. Again when it's 45 degrees Celcius outside, it's difficult to keep a large area cool.

Stay away
stayed in this guest house a week ago. Booked it after going over all the reviews. Not sure why this guest house got such good reviews. Hotel decor is beautiful.Room was clean. However the bathroom was nasty. I uploaded some pics of the bathroom. Bathroom was moldy. Some part of the ceiling was almost falling. Oh did i mention mold caulking. Very noisy area in the old part of Dubai. Yes, it is close to gold souk. But that was it. I had to deal with 3 staff. the morning staff was ok. Adeel who worked most of the night during our stay was amazing. He should be the manager for this place. He was very helpful and polite. And then there was Reza, who almost caused us our dune bashing tour which was booked seven months ago. He was rude, unprofessional. This Guest house also advertised that they had a cafe which provided lunch and dinner option, but in reality no cafe, no lunch and dinner. Breakfast was mediocre. Would not suggest this guest house. I am giving one star to this Guest house only for Adeel.

Quant, unique, old Dubai, parking across the river
It's not easy to find because it is in a courtyard in the middle of a group of buildings. Don't expect to park near the location. You can drop off your luggage. There is a small temporary pay parking lot on the same block, but it charges 20 Dirhams per hour. It is good to drop off and check in, but not much else. If you are looking for the flavor of old Dubai, this is it. The place was an old villa or palace and has tons of charm. Beds and pillows are comfortable. Breakfast was adequate. Next to the Gold and Spice Souqs. Plenty of shopping options. Much better on this side of the river than on the other side where vendors are much too aggressive. You can valet park your car across the river at the Arabian Hotel and it is included with your stay. Then take the one dirham boat ride across to the other side. A short walk from the river landing to the hotel. If you want to get away from the high tech bustle of Dubai, this is a great location. There are heritage sites and a fort across the river, so activities within walking distance. Overall a good value and enjoyable stay.

Really loved this place
We had a wonderful time here. We booked 2 nights but added until we'd been there for 5 nights, cancelling the much more expensive Hilton Jumeirah. I came with my 2 teenagers. We had a room with 2 king beds, big and beautiful and private with it's own decks, overlooking the courtyard, high wood-beamed ceilings, beautiful carved medallions on the walls that let in natural light. A TV with 800 stations but only 1 in English (BBC news channel 280). There's an AC in the room we didn't need but ran it all night on a warm setting to provide white noise for sleeping. We could barely hear the pryaers, which I found lovely and not intrusive. We chose Room 309 in the Annex. Room 308 had lots of furniture that gave the beds privacy from each other. The breakfast was big and lovely, and Agnes would make you an omelet if you asked. The desk staff were all very helpful and sweet and understanding. They are not hotel concierge so sometimes I know more than they did from the internet and my wonderful Frommer's guide book to Dubai and Abu Dhabi. It's a little hard for guides to pick you up in these alleys so be aware. It was wonderfully safe and clean and pretty and quiet and inexpensive and charming and... what more does one want?

A home away from home
Quaint and inviting guesthouse that looks more like a museum than a hotel! Nestled in the spice souk a few minutes from Al Ras Metro station, walking distance to heritage areas and the gold souk. Warm friendly staff who know you right away. Homestyle breakfast (included) gets your day off to a good start. Cosy breakfast room is a great place to meet fellow travellers, make friends and find out about the city and its tourist attractions. Next to an historic school and museum.

Very disappointing. The hotel was oversold.
After waiting 2 hours for check-in, we were advised that our room was no available. Apparently the door was locked and the prrevious guest did not check out. While they moved us to a different hotel, it was far from the souks which is why we picked this hotel and location. The other hotel was in a terrible location and not close to anything of interest within walking distance. We could not give an accurate review on the rooms or amenities as we were not able to stay.

Convenient, clean and polite service
Great hotel in the centre of old Dubai to explore all the cultural heritage and souks. If you want to explore further afield, the Al-Ras metro station is also 5 minutes away. The room that we got was huge if a little bit dated but we were very well looked after by Alena and Adeel. The only minor gripe was the lack of lighting (but I guess low lighting is the norm in hot countries) and lack of hanging hooks e.g. towel hangers etc. Would definitely recommend it.

An authentic Dubai expereince
Ahmedia Heritage Hotel is a quiet hotel set in Al Maz. It is near the Metro and not far from airport (20-30 mins depending on traffic). The room we had was meticulously clean and set out with lovely hanging drapes and carved wooden furniture. The staff were excellent - going the extra mile to allow us into our room very early and helping us find places. We could walk to the Metro in 3 mins and head into Dubai Mall (the Burj Khalifa etc). After 5pm, we enjoyed exploring the local souks (markets). The mosque is close by so that was noisy at times but an authentic Dubai experience.

Inconvenient but cozy.
If you want to mingle with the natives, this is your place. It's well hidden away, so much so that the taxi driver couldn't find it. You have to walk around looking for it. So, if you have a lot of luggage, beware. Nice complementary breakfast and one on one service--very few guests to compete with. It takes about five days for the AC to really get going. And it's not at all sound proof. It takes getting used to.
