I once worked onboard the QE2 so I was saddened to see how she has suffered from lack of investment in her upkeep. I found the food and service very mediocre

I have been shipowners for over 2 decades and my persective may vary from others. Ship & Sea both are very close to my heart. For me , stepping onto the Queen Elizabeth 2 at Port Rashid is not a simple check-in. Most guests see the wood paneling and the history; a shipowner sees the maintenance of the superstructure, the heritage of the Cunard line, and the monumental task of converting a vessel designed for the North Atlantic into a static landmark in the Persian Gulf. Upon reaching the ship, my immediately drifts to the waterline and the condition of the steel. I noted the transition of the vessel from a "working" entity to a "Floating Hotel." After that I went to my cabin , got ready for an award ceremony which was held at the Queens Room from 0630 PM to 1030 PM on the 06th February 2026. I was there to receive an Honorary Industrial Doctorate. I found the venue to be very good. The Aesthetic vs. The Nautical: While the average tourist admires the black-and-white funnel, I would appreciate the form-factor—that classic, sharp-bowed silhouette designed to cut through 40-foot waves, now resting in the calm, turquoise waters of Dubai. There is a profound respect for the "dry" preservation of a ship of this scale. To keep a 1960s-era hull pristine in a high-salinity environment like Dubai is a feat of engineering that any shipowner would find commendable. Inside, the experience shifts from the structural to the atmospheric. The QE2 is famous for its Mid-Century Modern design. I found kinship in the heavy use of teak, brass, and wool. In modern shipbuilding, "value engineering" often replaces these with synthetics. To stay in a cabin where the original cabinetry remains is a tactile reminder of an era when ships were built to last a century, not just a twenty-year depreciation cycle. The Layout: Navigating the companionways and the steep, polished stairs, I felt the "heft" of the vessel. The QE2 doesn’t feel like a building; it retains its "ship-ness"—that unique sense of enclosed, purposeful space. The most poignant part of my stay was the experience of going around from Bridge to Engine Room where I found Engineers are keeping watches to ensure the running of Generators for Electricity and the Air Condition Plants, etc.. "To a shipowner, the Bridge is the brain, and the Engine Room is the heart. Seeing these spaces preserved is not just nostalgia; it is a tribute to the crew who manned them for nearly 40 years." Engineering Marvels: He would appreciate the transition from steam turbines to the diesel-electric plant (installed in 1986). For a professional, this isn't just a fact—it's a massive capital expenditure (CAPEX) project that extended the life of the vessel by decades. Safety and Compliance: He would likely observe how the hotel has integrated modern fire safety and HVAC systems into a 1969 hull—a nightmare of maritime regulation and "Class" requirements that was navigated with surprising grace. Dining in the Queens Grill or grabbing a pint at the Golden Lion (the ship's authentic English pub) provides a social context. For Dr. M., this is where the "Spirit of the Sea" lives. The walls are adorned with memorabilia that trace the lineage of maritime excellence—from royal visits to the ship's role as a troop carrier in the Falklands War.
