This is a very interesting place, it's a whole Palace, everything is old there, fireplaces, interesting presentation, interesting interior. I rested for the new year, everything was decorated beautifully. In this hotel you feel like a court lady. The room was maybe not very clean, maybe I'm picky. I would stay at this hotel again. … More ▾ This is a very interesting place, it's a whole Palace, everything is old there, fireplaces, interesting presentation, interesting interior.

The hotel has a chic modern spa, I really liked it.

Well, the hotel does not pull on the top five. Maybe once it corresponded, but now there is devastation. If not for our own beach and good staff, it would be completely sad. Now I understand why there was such a low price for the tour. My husband and I went together in September and it’s good that we didn’t take the children! The food in the hotel is very monotonous and poor. … More ▾ Well, the hotel does not pull on the top five. Maybe once it corresponded, but now there is devastation.

My husband and I went together in September and it’s good that we didn’t take the children! The food in the hotel is very monotonous and poor. If you go, I advise you to take breakfast only, as we do. Moreover, there are places to eat on the coast. For example, we went to Al Sif across the road, the Russian-Tatar restaurant Kazan. Habitual, tasty, inexpensive, all in Russian! You can also go for a walk in the center in the evening, where the infrastructure is generally chic. I’m generally silent about Dubai, it’s so cool there! Buses run along the street in both directions, the schedule is at the reception. But in general, rest is not work, so we were pleased with the trip. )

Good hotel but not 5* there is wi-fi, the room is constantly cleaned, the room is spacious, overlooking the sea. The beach is small, rocky (very inconvenient), we went to the neighboring beach, arrived at 8:30 and settled at 15:00, but the luggage was taken to a special room, they offered to inspect the hotel, for waiting, they apparently brought a fruit basket to the room, the water was barely warm, pressure no, water was constantly gurgling in the toilet, after calling a specialist, it got better, but not for long, both the staff and residents are noisy in the corridors, the breakfasts are not tasty, the food is ordinary, there were always not enough small spoons, when asked why, they received an answer that there were not enough of them they don’t have anything interesting nearby, the shuttle takes you where you don’t need it, there is a desalination plant nearby, but it didn’t really interfere, the only photo with a view of the plant no one wants, there is a small supermarket nearby, that’s all, the only staff is friendly. … More ▾ Good hotel but not 5*

A hotel with a private beach and a sea of ​ ​ entertainment for every taste. It was nice that the hotel has an elevator. ) Why smiled, it is three-story) We were settled on the second one overlooking the sea, so we did not use the elevator at all. ) I liked that each room has a balcony, in the morning the fresh sea breeze pleased. … More ▾ A hotel with a private beach and a sea of ​ ​ entertainment for every taste.

The food was very tasty and varied. Even the kids found something to eat. In the dining room confused only instant coffee, everything else is fine. A bus passes by the hotel every day, taking people to the center of Sharjah, to Dubai and other emirates. The schedule is available at the reception, where you can also take a card for free. There was no Internet in the room, but in general there was no Internet in the hotel! Surprised, in the age of technology! Excursions were bought in advance, before departure. We studied the information for a long time, I wanted excursions in Russian! As a result, we went to Dubai and Abu Dhabi. Dubai is very impressive, but the queue for the tower is tiring! It was interesting in Abu Dhabi, but it was hot in black long clothes, otherwise a woman would not be allowed into the mosque! In general, the story is very interesting, it was not in vain that we went. I also want to warn you, no matter how girls want to dress comfortably, it’s better to dress modestly. These are the Arabs, well, them. I took long sundresses, linen and pants. And not hot and modest. But, of course, it's up to you, I'm just suggesting.

Chose this hotel based on ratings and reviews. But it turned out that they do not really correspond to 5 stars. 8 years ago we were in Sharjah in a 4-star hotel, now we decided to pay extra and chose the Sahara. Comparing, I do not see a difference, even worse. Arrived at 12pm, checked in at 2pm. The room is large, but dirty (the floors in the bathroom were rubbed somehow), the windows overlooked a little bit the sea and the factory. … More ▾ Chose this hotel based on ratings and reviews.

Comparing, I do not see a difference, even worse. Arrived at 12pm, checked in at 2pm. The room is large, but dirty (the floors in the bathroom were rubbed somehow), the windows overlooked a little bit the sea and the factory. On the right side, this is the case for all rooms. This plant is a terrible thing, it smokes day and night. The noise from it is like in the subway when the train approaches, and if the wind blows towards the hotel, it is difficult to breathe. And this plant is a kilometer from the hotel. About cleaning: Garbage was taken out every day and towels were changed, tea bags, coffee and sugar were brought daily, bed linen was changed twice and that's it! After my complaint, they vacuumed and washed the floor in the bathroom, I didn’t apply anymore, we didn’t stay in the room much. The food was average, it did not differ in variety, from fruits there were watermelon, melon and canned pineapples and peaches, Tablecloths in the dining room were changed once with us, so everyone ate on stained tablecloths. About the beach: there were enough sunbeds, umbrellas and towels for everyone, but! At the entrance to the beach, they checked the bags so that there was no food !! ! Russian-speaking staff worked at the reception, not very kind, but solving problems right away. We did not like the hotel, we do not recommend going there!

The hotel itself is not bad, but we did not like the service in principle. Very unfriendly front desk staff! The rooms are clean and large, we had to pay extra for an extra bed for a child, for a week of stay there it turned out 1000 rubles per day per bed... not a very pleasant fact to be honest. They settled us in the room late in the evening, after the plane I wanted to go into the shower and we were not given any towels at all! Even the face and hands had nothing to wipe! After the call, they brought ONE bath towel for three. … More ▾ The hotel itself is not bad, but we did not like the service in principle. Very unfriendly front desk staff!

The bath room itself was old....the shelf was broken at all, there was no dryer, things dried for a very long time, the sun did not fall on the balcony ((((There are no complaints about food, the only island, especially when traveling with a child, the choice decreased greatly.
They didn’t clean the room properly, they didn’t vacuum it for sure, it was also very doubtful that the bed linen was changed because the child dripped juice, so I watched this stain until the end of the vacation.
But all these minuses did not spoil our vacation, we still enjoyed the rest)

Everything in detail)
1. The hotel is quite far from the airport, the road took 1.5 hours
2. When checking into the hotel, there were no problems, everything was quite fast.
3. Standard room is quite spacious, about 25 sq. m. , spacious bathroom, small balcony.
Of the shortcomings, insufficient lighting, in some places, in principle, there are no lamps, insufficient towels. Very weak water pressure and if the hotel is watered during the day. There is no water at all.
Remarks on the number were eliminated by a call.
An extra bed (children's bed) is provided for those with children for an additional fee, although tourists are told when buying a Voucher that the house is included.
4. We only had breakfast (buffet), there was not much variety, but we did not go hungry. There are no desserts, a poor selection of fruits (apple, orange, green bananas and plums, watermelon)
5. Wifi is free at the hotel, but it doesn’t catch on the beach anymore.
6. The territory of the beach is small, but there are enough sunbeds and mattresses for everyone.
7. The pool is small 15 meters with cold chlorinated water, not heated! Located right behind the hotel, the sun does not get there.
8. The spa complex is only open until 9 pm.
Neither the beach nor the pool after 22:00 you will not get everything is closed.
The room was never vacuumed for 4 days, the linen was changed every day, not all towels, only those that you throw on the floor! Dirty dishes in the room were not changed at all.
The rest itself brought positive emotions, the hotel, of course, does not correspond to 5 *, rather it is 3 * +, no more. at that time everything corresponded to 5 * and was in abundance, and after departure, the service fell and the buffet was very poor!

Finally, I was going to write a detailed review about our visit to Sharjah and our stay at the Sahara Hotel. We were three with my wife and little granddaughter. The hotel is small but cozy with very positive and helpful staff! We have been to the Emirates more than 20 times, but we have never met such an attitude anywhere! This is a big plus. … More ▾ Finally, I was going to write a detailed review about our visit to Sharjah and our stay at the Sahara Hotel.
We were three with my wife and little granddaughter. The hotel is small but cozy with very positive and helpful staff! We have been to the Emirates more than 20 times, but we have never met such an attitude anywhere! This is a big plus. Check-in and check-out were handled quickly and efficiently. The two-room suite, kindly provided to us in exchange for the one we didn’t like, is also very good: furniture, bedding and order for 5.
Food for a solid 4 breakfast is monotonous, lunch is more interesting, but there is room for improvement. Juices are not natural, there were fruits, always watermelon and melon, often apples, kiwi, banana. Yogurt always. Their famous khomus, unfortunately, has never been. You won't be hungry! And our Child was not hungry + in the evening without words in the restaurant we were warmed up our porridge and something else for the granddaughter.
At the time of our stay at the hotel, the main staircase was under constant renovation. Hindus are real masters doing their work for a feast! Wi-Fi in the room and at the reception works fine and is free.
Now for the disadvantages:
1. the beach is well-maintained but small at once for 3 host hotels, there are not enough places by the sea, you will not come near the sea after 7-7-30 in the morning. Plastic sunbeds are mostly broken. Towels are clean but short. The pool is in the shade and absolutely not in demand.
2. Free transfers from the hotel are not thought out at all. In general, there is nowhere to go to Dubai except for the distant Outlet. Yes, and Sharjah trips are not ice (the schedule forces you to return by taxi).
3. cleaning in the room is not very punctual, but of high quality, shampoo and other things are in abundance.
A request to the owners of the hotel - to carefully consider my comments and the quality of the rest will improve dramatically!
Special thanks to the manager Victoria - a very sensitive, attentive professional and person!
With the change in the Emirates schedule, the conditions for arrival and departure have improved, transfer from and to the airport is not relevant, it is easier and more profitable than a taxi.
And of course, the sea and the sun are excellent and do not depend on anyone except the weather, but this time it was anywhere!! ! We all got tanned, and the granddaughter blushed and got better. !! !

The food is good, everything is very tasty. There is everything you need, your own beach, and on the left is a huge city beach, very beautiful. We left our things on the sun loungers and swam there. Al-Kasba within walking distance, in the evenings walked on foot. Rest and hotel satisfied by 100%. … More ▾ The food is good, everything is very tasty.

Yes, yes, and once again yes to rest in the Emirates at the Royal Resort and Spa! Of course, not everything was perfect, but perfect does not exist. In general, everything is good - service, decor, cleanliness in the rooms, on the territory and on the beach. Food for 5! At the C grade of Al Khalidiya Tourism services, their table is located right at the hotel. … More ▾ Yes, yes, and once again yes to rest in the Emirates at the Royal Resort and Spa!

At the C grade of Al Khalidiya Tourism services, their table is located right at the hotel. But I don't think they have anything to do with the hotel. But the impression is spoiled. Not the level and quality of the proposed product.

We are going to the UAE in Sharjah. Interested in such a moment: is it possible to smoke on the territory of the hotel and rooms (on the balcony). And if there is no balcony, how to be; they say hotel employees are fined for this. Please tell me! Thank you!
