Thinking of going there as a stopover while in dubai, on my way to malaysia,

Any comments? Places to stay etc?

I'd go to Iran via Israel (seriously not a good idea as you won't get into any arab states!)

I'd go straight to Dubai

Qatar, Barhrain are all in quick flying distance (ie 1-2 hours) and perhaps a look if your interested. Check for visa requirements though.

In february I did london->dubai->barhrain->manila->hongkong->london for business in one week.

How long is the stopover?

Been to both of those places and they are pretty much the same, just like Dubai.

Stopover is as long as I like
