Queen Elizabeth 2
Insider Tips
The original QE2 ocean liner permanently moored in Dubai as a floating hotel — one of the world's most unusual accommodation experiences. Extensively restored with original ocean liner atmosphere preserved in the Golden Lion pub and Lido restaurant. A genuine piece of maritime history.
Insider tip
Description
The QE2 is a proper floating hotel—the actual retired ocean liner docked permanently at Jaddaf—so you're sleeping in genuine maritime heritage, not a theme. Cabins are compact and the decor feels authentically vintage (which means creaky plumbing sometimes), but the price-to-experience ratio is unbeatable for something genuinely different in Dubai.
