A decent hotel, convenient location in the city center, there is a place to walk, near the RAK Mall shopping center. The staff was friendly and helpful, the breakfasts and lunches were very tasty (buffet) and there was always a choice. Heated swimming pool for adults and children, free sauna as a pleasant addition. We were satisfied with the rest.
The hotel is normal, clean, the rooms are cleaned every day, the food is good, they take you to the beach twice a day, there are no city sun beds and umbrellas, this is very bad! You can only sit in the shade under a tree if you have time to take it)) The sea is just super clean and warm❤️every evening from the hotel they take you to the store, then to the big or smaller mall, this is the way because there is nowhere to go in the evening. In general, I liked everything👍👍👍
I was at the RAK Hotel itself
Don't go there. Mostly Hindus and Palestinians (i.e. locals) have a rest
It is not possible to approach the pool at this time.
In the restaurant, their children take food with their hands from shared plates.
The bus to the beach runs in the morning from 9-30 to 13-45
In this heat and sun, it's a very long time. There are no canopies or sun beds on the beach.
There is no one in the hotel who speaks Russian
This is a DRY hotel
According to the soft system, you will have to beg for drinks. They won't give them to you in the bar and you will go to the restaurant for them
Recently returned from vacation, stayed in this hotel.I will tell you more about the advantages:
1. Convenient location of the hotel (you can walk to nearby shops and cafes). The hotel is an hour's drive from the airport.
2. From the hotel every day 2 times at 09:30 to 13:45 and at 15:00 to 17:00 there was a transfer to the sea (free of charge), 5-7 minutes to go and you are on the beach. The beach is urban, there is a locker room and a toilet.
3. Every evening at 18:15 there was a free shuttle service to the shopping centers RAK MOLL and MANAR MOLL. From there, you can walk to other shops on your own. The transfer was taken back at 20:45.
4. Room cleaning every day + change of towels (they give water, tea, coffee), you could also ask for additional water at the reception.
5. In the room where we lived there was air conditioning, TV, hair dryer, plumbing serviceable. We had windows on the road, windows with sound insulation (cars did not distract). From the windows there was a beautiful view of the city and the mountains)
6. From the food we had only breakfast (according to the "buffet" system). The food was delicious, satisfying and varied.
7. Separately, I would like to mention the room service at the hotel. The prices are reasonable, and the food is very, very tasty, the portions are large. A great alternative to lunch or dinner. Prices are lower than in neighboring cafes.
8. The area around the hotel is well-groomed, beautiful. Especially in the evening, when the sun sets.
9. You can visit the gym and the swimming pool (heated) for free. Beach towels can be taken by the pool.
10. The staff at the hotel is very friendly, they try to understand and help you. You can also exchange currency at the reception.
11. The hotel also has an agency where you can book excursions, the tour operator also offers excursions, but some excursions are cheaper at the hotel.
About the cons:
1. There is no place to dry things (there is no balcony, there was no towel rail or dryer), of course, we did without it, but it wouldn't hurt.
2. Since the beach is urban, and not at the hotel, it was not cleaned so efficiently. Every day the sand was leveled with a special machine, and the garbage, unfortunately, was not cleaned.
3. I would like the transfer to the sea to go more often.
In general, we liked the hotel, we recommend it. 👍🏻
I was here just now.I liked.yes, it's a bit far from the beach, but the transfer arrives at 9.30, and I left at 15.00. it's quite normal.I walked along the boardwalk in the evening.He's right there.I'm not interested in shops.the room is complete.even the toothbrush is new every day)) I took only breakfast, I had enough, there are inexpensive supermarkets nearby, if anything.The bay is awesome.I got what I wanted.excursions from Anex razvodilovo.
Not a bad option. Of the cons, the oldest hotel in Ras al Khaimah, there is almost no territory, good rooms, but some smell of mold.
Good food, there is a transfer to the beach 2 times a day, transfer to the shopping center in the evening, excellent staff
Good staff. The rooms are cleaned every day. The territory is small. There is nowhere to walk from the word at all. Every evening, a minibus is taken to the nearest malls of your choice. The food is not very varied, but it is quite tasty. You won't be hungry.
We were here for 4 days on a tour from the funsun company, among the advantages there is a rooftop pool, a small gym, there is a bar, the room was cleaned every day, the staff is responsive.Of the minuses, it was cold in the room, they asked not to turn on the air conditioner , but they turned it on anyway, the food was quite monotonous plus a lot of spicy things on the menu, and they demanded to pay an additional fee upon check-in, so immediately take local cash.So, in principle, the hotel is very good
Nice clean rooms. Friendly staff. It takes 10 minutes to get to the sea by shuttle, 10 minutes to walk to the shops. WiFi is everywhere. The prices are loyal.
We took breakfast. It's quite edible. They never went hungry. The room stock is old, but they are trying, they have made repairs somewhere. The staff is friendly. I liked the service.
A bus takes you to the beach from the hotel.
We walked to the wild beach. There are no people there. There are many shells. And we even saw turtles!
A very cozy hotel, excellent location, delicious varied breakfasts, a warm spacious swimming pool, daily room cleaning and a wonderful sauna. Recommend
The most important thing is that there are not enough towels, the pool is cold and children's and large, although they write that it is heated, they took it for three, they do not consider the child, the crib is 120 dirhams per day, towels are brought without taking into account the child
I was at the Village. the perfect format. 2x floor houses. There are few Russians. Not a luxury. The beach is across a small road. There is a fitness room. There is a bar. The rooms are clean. But if there is a backwater overlooking the lake, then there may be mosquitoes. The ratio of price and quality. Shhh
A modest hotel on the outskirts of the emirate. There is a bus to the beach twice a day, maybe on foot, but there is no pedestrian zone as such, you have to walk along the road. The room stock is quite old. The view from the window of the liuo is on a busy part of the road, or on a mangrove forest, (this is certainly more attractive, but they say the hood is making a lot of noise from that side) The food is modest, no frills, but they never stayed hungry. The staff is very friendly and welcoming. Every day there is new water in the room, tea, coffee, sugar, bath accessories
Hello everyone
Right at the beginning I will write that I liked it, because, unfortunately, there are much more minuses than pluses.
1. The restaurant at the hotel where breakfast, lunch and dinner are held was simply struck on the spot by the variety of dishes and their taste qualities! If you are a lover of delicious food, then you are definitely here. Cooks try to put their whole soul and imagination. Especially delicious grilled dishes that were cooked right in front of us!
2. Location. The hotel is very conveniently located on a small hill, next to the central embankment on the Lagoon. The hotel has a beautiful view of the mountains from the main entrance. In the evening, you can walk along the embankment and admire the night city.
3. The hotel has a shuttle service to the beach and to the nearby mall. The staff at the hotel is friendly and helpful.
The lobby is very stylish and cozy.
Then there will be disadvantages.
The hotel, especially the number of rooms, has long been in urgent need of major repairs. The carpets in the corridors and rooms are worn almost to holes in places. The furniture is all chipped and scratched. The windows are dirty and do not fully close, which is why small insects can enter the room. Because of the same reason, all the noise from the street is heard in the room. Our windows looked out onto the backyard where the air conditioning systems were buzzing all the time and we could hear trucks unloading.
It is very inconvenient to get to the outdoor pool.
There is practically no territory where you can take a walk.
Although at the dawn of its activity, the hotel was probably attractive.
Not a bad hotel, large and nice rooms, delicious food in the restaurant. It is better not to go into the Sauna, it is not equipped with either a locker room or benches outside, it is located in the toilet... As it warms up, it smells very much of dust and wood..
Paradise in the desert, great food, attitude.They celebrated the new year 2023 there. Words cannot convey how everything was organized at the highest level.
Very nice hotel. We were on New Year's Eve and everything was stunningly decorated. We were in this hotel for the second time and I can firmly say that the renovation was done. The rooms are all fresh, cleaned, all shower accessories are there.
The breakfast is good, delicious.
A heated swimming pool, which is a pleasure to swim in.
There is a transfer to the sea twice a day. It takes 15-20 minutes on foot, and 3-5 minutes on the transfer. The beach is nice, clean, the water is cool.
There is also a shuttle service to the mall every evening.
Nearby there is a large supermarket where salads, kebabs and side dishes are made (this is a little the most), we ate there with pleasure. There are many cafes nearby and a large, beautiful embankment.
The hotel is old but clean. The staff is as kind as possible. They take you to the sea 2 times a day, evening departure to the Mall. The food is delicious and varied.
The hotel is not bad. The staff is very polite, but there are practically no Russian speakers. The rooms are small, cozy, but it seems that there has not been a repair for a long time. Tea, coffee, cream, sugar are served daily in the room. The bathroom is replenished daily with shower gel, shampoos, brushes and pastes, shaving machine and shaving cream, cotton pads, cotton swabs, nail file.
The food (we took only breakfast) is good - varied and delicious. There is free Wi-Fi in the room and at the reception. There is no private beach, but a free bus goes to the beach 2 times a day (9.40-13.30; 15.00-17.00). The beach is urban, there are no sun loungers and umbrellas. The sand is white, quite clean. The entrance to the sea is amazing: hard sand and a gentle entrance. There aren't many people on the beach. The water is emerald-colored and pure! There is a large heated swimming pool on site
Everything is super. A great vacation for the family. No fuss. The basin is warm. The food is volschebnaya. The hotel administration is one-size-fits-all for us who want to sit in the evening.
They feed like in an oriental fairy tale. The breakfasts are the most boring, but they are also very tasty. But lunches and especially dinners are feasts. We are glad that we took the full package, and not just breakfast. We had a rest for the national holiday of education in the UAE, so the cooks had a good time for dinner. There are no smoking areas, only in front of the entrance. There is no alcohol, but knowledgeable tourists on the beach will tell you a place where you can buy (the larger the volume of purchase, the lower the price), offered a joint alcohol withdrawal, refused, so I don't know how it is in practice. There's not much to see in the city, but the sea is a fairy tale. The beach and the entrance to the sea are sand, for a very long time the depth is not great - ideal for children, it warms up like in the bathroom. The water is clean, even with a little excitement. It is better with your umbrellas, because there is little shade. Nearby is an inexpensive mini-market, fruits, dates - a very large selection, water, etc. Water is given 0.5 per person per day, juices, tea, coffee for breakfast, but nothing for lunch and dinner. It makes sense to immediately go to the store for water and sweets for tea. There is a kettle and tea utensils in the room. One bag of tea, coffee, a couple of sugars per day, per person. The end of November, the beginning of December - the weather is perfect. I would have flown here again.
In the hotel we got a cozy room, the service is good, you can contact the reception for any question and it will be quickly resolved, the sociable Russian-speaking manager Nadir is a very nice young man, there are no questions about the service, everything is great, all the staff are pleasant polite ready to help, the hotel is small on the 4th floor, at the location you will have to get to the center either by taxi or in the evening there is a daily shuttle service with departure to the city, a bus also takes you to the beach twice a day.
I was in the UAE for the second time. The first one, I was in Sharjah, I didn't like it.
I liked everything about this trip. The hotel itself is very friendly, no problems, we were greeted warmly, there was a Russian-speaking manager at the reception, his name was Shahzod, special thanks to him.
He told me everything and showed me. Answered all the questions, very well-mannered, cultured.in the process of rest, I helped more than once with advice, a word, a smile.
Very good location of the hotel, the windows of my room overlooked the bay and the pool. The food was breakfast, very decent, everything was fresh and cooked with a soul. Twice a day we were taken to the city beach. The sand is clean, the sea is warm, there were practically no people. Everything is great.
The rooms were cleaned every day, water tea coffee, constantly replenished.
I asked for an iron, and they immediately brought me a dove with a smooth surface.a board.
There were no tensions on the part of the staff. The weather was wonderful, the sea was warm, the only thing that upset a few days on vacation.
I had a rest from January 30 to February 5.
I recommend staying at this hotel.
Declared 4 stars, but the hotel does not pull for 4 in any way.Dirty carpets, slippers, bathrobes are missing, it is simply impossible to adjust the temperature of the water in the bathroom, either cold or hot.All night long there is unbearable noise outside the windows from the pool side, plus Arabic chants, as if they are in your room, very much interfere with sleep.Very unfortunate location of the hotel.The buffet is a little meager.There are other disadvantages, but this is already a trifle.
A small hotel, a little old, but people are trying))))) in general , the norms , especially if for budget money )
