    Your Guide to Bur Dubai Studio Apartments for Rent

    Bur Dubai sits on the western bank of Dubai Creek and represents the historic heart of the city. Studio apartments for rent in Bur Dubai attract singles and young professionals who want central connectivity without paying Marina or Downtown prices. 

    The buildings are mostly mid-rise structures, often positioned above busy commercial streets. While you won't find the polished aesthetic of Business Bay here, you gain walkability and convenience. You can reach supermarkets, tailors, and clinics on foot, or take an Abra across the creek for just a dirham.

    The neighborhood sits next to Al Karama, Dubai Healthcare City, and Oud Metha, giving residents quick access to healthcare facilities, schools, and Sheikh Zayed Road. Bur Dubai studio flats for rent stay in demand year-round because of this combination of affordability and location, though the area does come with trade-offs like street noise and older building stock.

    Market Overview

    Rental prices in Bur Dubai run about 10 to 20% lower than Downtown Dubai or Business Bay, making it one of the more accessible central neighborhoods. The average annual rent for a studio for rent in Bur Dubai sits around AED 40,000, though this varies based on building age and furnishing.

    Recent contract data shows new leases average roughly AED 41,000, while renewals come in lower at about AED 35,000. Studio sizes here are generous compared to newer developments, ranging from 350 to 750 square feet, with most averaging around 450 square feet.

    Budget options in Al Raffa start near AED 40,000 annually for smaller units. Mid-range apartments in Al Mankhool, offering around 550 square feet, typically rent for about AED 55,000 per year. Premium furnished studios in Dubai Healthcare City can reach AED 92,000 to AED 130,000 if they include hotel-style services.

    Bur Dubai studios for rent generally feature modern finishes in newer buildings, with amenities like gyms, pools, and parking. Older structures offer lower rents and larger floor plans. Demand stays strong among young professionals and singles who value affordability and Metro connectivity.

    Why Rent a Studio Apartment in Bur Dubai?

    Central Location

    You get Metro access on both Red and Green lines, plus proximity to Sheikh Zayed Road. Commutes to DIFC or Downtown take under 15 minutes in normal traffic.

    Affordable Pricing

    Rents here undercut most other central areas while still offering decent square footage. It's a practical option if you're saving money or are new to Dubai.

    Walkable Amenities

    Daily needs like groceries, pharmacies, and restaurants sit within walking distance. You don't need a car for basic errands if you live near BurJuman or Al Mankhool.

    Cultural Atmosphere

    The area retains its traditional character with souks and heritage sites. If you want to experience authentic Dubai rather than just tourist zones, this delivers.

    Top Locations for Bur Dubai Studio Flats for Rent 

    The district breaks into several sub-areas, each with distinct characteristics and price points.

    Al Mankhool

    This sub-area balances modern residential living with proximity to commercial hubs. Buildings here are newer mid-rises, many featuring pools, gyms, and parking.

Studios here typically rent between AED 45,000 and AED 60,000 annually, with sizes ranging from 400 to 600 square feet. The area suits young professionals who want modern amenities and convenient commutes without paying premium prices.

    Al Raffa

    Located closer to the Creek and Shindagha, Al Raffa offers the most budget-friendly options in the area. The neighborhood stays busy throughout the day, with Meena Bazaar creating constant foot traffic. Buildings here are older, and parking can be challenging, but you get larger units for significantly less money. Annual rents for studios start around AED 38,000 to AED 50,000, with units averaging 350 to 500 square feet. Al Ghubaiba Metro Station and Bus Terminal are nearby. This area works best for renters prioritizing low costs and cultural immersion over modern finishes.

    Oud Metha

    Oud Metha provides a quieter alternative, partly because it hosts numerous schools, social clubs, and the American Hospital. The residential atmosphere feels more relaxed compared to the market-heavy sections of Bur Dubai. Studios here range from AED 45,000 to AED 65,000 per year, typically offering 400 to 600 square feet.

This suits professionals working near Sheikh Zayed Road or families who need healthcare access.

The area appeals to medical professionals or those willing to pay more for wellness facilities and contemporary design.
