A tour through Dubai's newest floating hotel - QE2

A little over a decade after it made it's final journey to Dubai, the famed QE2 is now open to guests in its new avatar.

On April 18, the QE2 was soft launched, which will be followed by a more formal opening once it's refurbishment is complete.

Rooms on board the ship will start at around US $163 (AED 600), with discounted deals expected in Ramadan.
