Greetings! We were in the department from March 10 to March 20, 2023. So. Hotel. What are the disadvantages. There is a mosque nearby, prayer begins at 5 am, but on the second day they stopped noticing and paying attention. 2. There are no balconies, high humidity, nothing dries, especially HB, so you need to take T-shirts, underwear in such quantity so as not to wash. But these are not even minuses, but so that people have in mind. Not critical😉. The food is just fine, the choice is small, but everything is cooked perfectly, 3-4 types of salads, oranges in the morning from fruits, watermelons and melon for lunch and dinner. Hot - stewed vegetables, some kind of cereal, spaghetti, pasta, stewed potatoes (on different days), chicken, beef, sausages - always. Soups for lunch and dinner. Tea, coffee - only in the morning. For lunch and dinner - water. So we bought tea and sugar and quietly drank tea in the room. In-room safe, kettle, iron, ironing board. Wi-Fi throughout the territory, including in the rooms. Adapters for sockets are given. The water is hot and cold, there were no problems. Beach. They take you on a transfer, but it's tied in time, there's a magnificent city beach nearby, we went there. There are toilets, showers, everything is very clean. We went to Dubai by city bus. There's a subway down there. Guided tours, from $ 50, something 80, and above. There is no need to wait for a Turkish-Egyptian olinclusive from the hotel, remember that this is a budget three-piece. There is no need to look for minuses and spoil your rest and mood with this. Everything is even more than good👍
I'm looking for a positive in every trip! The hotel is good, the food is half board, you can change dinner for lunch, lunch for dinner. Even if you are going somewhere or walking, you can ask for a lunch box and pick it up at the reception. The sea is far from the hotel, every morning takes a shuttle to the beach where it is very good. The room is nice, the staff is friendly. Food like at home, meat every day.
A hole for the homeless, unsanitary conditions, poverty, everything is broken, torn off, the entrance door does not open, the eternal problem with the lock, mold in the shower stall. We have never seen such a hotel in our life, shame. There is also devastation on the territory, even there is not enough money for asphalt, just a mess of stones and earth. The mattress is crooked, you lie down and roll down on the floor, they asked to replace it, they did not replace it. I couldn't get rid of the feeling that we were in some kind of hangout. An Arab family settled in the neighborhood, the children screamed and jumped until 3 a.m., as if they were kept in a cage at home. There is a mosque 5 meters away, the loudspeaker wakes up at night, the decibels are off the scale, you jump up and down on the bed, then it's hard to fall asleep. But the restaurant is normal and even delicious. The sea is more than a kilometer away, but the beach there is filthy. Normal Al Khan Beach is 15-20 minutes away by an old bus without air conditioning. If my review is read by the management of the Belavia airline, then please think about the conditions in which your crews rest in this place, it's just disrespectful to employees.
I liked the food, the staff, the relative proximity to the sea, the price. I didn't like it: the rooms are broken, next to a mosque from which prayers are broadcast quite often with the help of loudspeakers
I'll come back here again! For the not whimsical. The food in the hotel is for Russians. The chef is handsome! To the beach 10 minutes slowly. For alcohol addicts, 5 minutes by taxi and you are in Ajman at the alcohol market. And in general, there is just a great rest without it!)))
The food is delicious, the cleaning is clean, there was no hot water from the cons, the shower was broken, and every morning at 5 a.m. the service in the mosques began and did not let you sleep
Rested in August 2022. Very hot. 33-35 degrees at night, 44-45 degrees during the day, and probably all 50 degrees in the sun. But the sea is very warm - you enter it like in a warm bath.
The hotel is located a 15-minute walk from the bay. There are few people on the beach in the morning, lifeguards are on duty, but there are no amenities - showers, changing rooms, toilets. Every day from the hotel they take you to Al Khan beach for free, there are all of the above. There are three large swings 50 meters apart from each other. Admission is free. They are taken away at 9 am, back at 12 o'clock. The hotel provides towels for visiting the beach.
Free shuttles are also organized by shopping centers in Sharjah - Mega Mall (6 times a week) and Sahara Mall (three times a week). They drive right up to the hotel and pick up everyone who wants to shop. The schedule is at the reception desk.
We went on our own to the Outlet, which is located a few kilometers from Dubai. First by taxi to the Jubail Bus station (15-20 dirhams, 40-45 minutes on foot). They bought a silver card there (an analogue of the "Troika" in Moscow), it costs 25 dirhams - 6 is the card itself and 19 is already on the account. We boarded the double-decker bus No. 303, reached the Union metro station (10 dirhams). Then there is one stop on the Burjuman metro (red line, fare 3 dirhams). From Burjuman there is a bus stop 100 meters away - No. 66 and No. 67 go to the Outlet every hour (cost 7.5 dirhams). Back from the Outlet, you need to cross the highway through the underpass, it's better to ask at the information desk on the ground floor or, as they have correctly, on floor G. There's a man speaking Russian.
The Royal Hotel itself is a typical three-piece. Clean and change towels every day, bed - in 2-3 days. They bring soap and shampoo. The room has a kettle, refrigerator, napkins. The TV shows 7-10 channels, one in Russian - Euronews.
The windows overlooked the mosque. Prayer began every day at four-thirty in the morning. Very loud. If you do not profess Islam, then it causes some discomfort.
The food is a buffet. It is adapted for Russian speakers. Soups, mashed potatoes, chicken, semolina porridge, oatmeal, omelets, eggs, pickles and unsalted, tomatoes, pilaf, meat, spaghetti... In the evening - slices of melon and watermelon, cakes. There are not many dishes in general, but everything is edible.
The gym is open from 10 am to 10 pm (it is opposite the restaurant in the hotel). It also has a small sauna. The gym is small, for 5-6 people at a time. Basically there are treadmills, stupas, exercise bikes. There is a pull-up stand and a press, several dumbbells, Pilates mats. Inside there is a shower and toilet.
The hotel is small, 4 floors. Half of the vacationers are from Russia. There are neighboring countries, Arabs. The staff are Sri Lankans, very polite, executive.
From the Royal Hotel you can easily walk to shops, shopping centers, hypermarkets, bakeries... The hotel is not located in the center of Sharjah, but also not in the backwoods. You can walk until late at night - there are no fights, drunken quarrels, screams.
A good hotel in terms of price-quality ratio. There is a free shuttle service to Al Khan Beach. You can also walk to the public beach of Sharjah (but there are a lot of Pakistanis there in the evening). There is an elevator. The room has a refrigerator, hairdryer, napkins. Shampoo and soap are reported as needed. There is a mosque nearby, so it is better to ask for a room with a sea view. The sound insulation was normal, nothing was heard at 5 in the morning. The breakfasts are hearty, there are several hot dishes to choose from, sliced, cheese in balls (I advise you!), pastries, desserts. The restaurant is a little stuffy. There is also a gym. WiFi is free, works well. Take adapters for sockets with you, here they are of the European type. The hotel provides an adapter, but it does not work well. Opposite there is a cafe with Indian food.
Budget hotel, good food (buffet), near the beach.
Of the minuses - there is a mosque under the window where prayers are sung into the loudspeaker and, sometimes, at 4-5 in the morning...
We had a rest from January 19th to 27th this year in this hotel. We arrived early, sat at the reception until two o'clock, it was very uncomfortable, it was simply impossible to get tired, we asked for at least tea, but nothing, not even water was offered. The staff guys are normal, there is a Russian-speaking Julia, but she does not decide anything, she can only promise and that's it. There is a man who says that he is in charge, I don't remember his name, he is very rude, he doesn't know how to talk to his tourists at all, it's useless to argue with him, the STAFF is a RUDE MINUS!!! The food in the dining room is delicious, the cook +.The room is average, they clean when you ask, but they don't come like that. There is a sauna, 2 people in sight, very dirty!There is a city beach in 15-20 minutes walk, but all the Arabs are there, they don't swim, but they sit and watch everyone, city people bathe in everything.Al Khan takes a bus to the beach twice, if there are a lot of people, then you are not lucky, because you will stay here for the whole day,a lot of people asked to allocate another bus, but the chief, I repeat, does not meet his tourists, just gives a rude answer!...Immediately leaving the hotel is very dirty, dirty water from the communication runs right from the side of the hotel, smells, flies are small!...It's very far to the center and to good shopping centers, you can't walk, buses don't run, it's very inconvenient.A hotel for 2 people or even a little lower will do. People, please, a little more expensive vouchers, but only for other hotels, it's not worth spending money here, I really regretted that I bought a ticket for this dirty hotel!... It didn't work out to have a rest from the soul. With respect to our tourists! Good luck to everyone!
Just returned from a vacation from this hotel. We arrived on the morning of January 14. They offered to check in immediately for an additional fee. Refused. We left our things and went to the sea. They came by lunchtime. We had lunch and were settled in. The room is small, but it was enough for us. Minus the windows on the mosque. Early in the morning, they turn on the speaker and you listen to their loud speech. They didn't change anything. Then they got used to it. They fed normally, in Russian. Borscht, pickle, with mushrooms, cutlets, cabbage rolls. They ate beef. At lunch, watermelons, melons. Coffee and tea for breakfast. And during the day, only water. If everything is included, then they additionally have juice. I even thought that I should have taken breakfast, dinner. Enough. The hotel does not provide drinking water. We bought in supermarkets. This is a one and a half liter bottle of 1 dirham (19 rubles to the ruble). They take you to the beach at 8.30 and 9.30, back at 11.45 and 12.45. After lunch we went to the municipal beach. It's 10 minutes from the hotel. Everything is very good there, changing rooms, toilet. Which is not very comfortable there are a lot of locals there. The sea is gorgeous. On January 15, I had an anniversary, I came to the reception. They promised a cake. But alas, she left without waiting. Although she reminded me twice. There is a Russian-speaking girl at the reception. We took one tour of modern Dubai. Booked back in Moscow.And on the beach you can buy much cheaper. There is an oceanarium near the beach, where they take you. And
there the entrance is free for pensioners. We showed our Russian pension plans and went to look. And so the entrance ticket is 25 dirs. (to the ruble about 500). I really liked the rest. I recommend the hotel
A modest, old hotel. Everything is there, but the bed linen and towels are in poor condition, the rooms smell damp. They clean up 2 times a week, the area around is unkempt, garbage is lying around, a mosque is nearby, someone will be disturbed by their prayers. The food is delicious, there is little choice, but you will not stay hungry.
The food is delicious, homemade, the cook is 5!
The hotel is good, far from the center, taxi only saves.
Designed for guests who are ready to get sun and sea baths and shopping)
Who goes there for what, there is nothing remarkable nearby, except a mosque!
If for impressions, then not here!
Was in February 2023. Nice, of course there are comments: they could have washed the windows and washed the curtains, but in general, because of the location and the opportunity to go to the beach myself, I put a high mark. The food is no frills, but really delicious. The choice is small, but I was always happy with the cooked.
We rested with a friend from February 06, 2023 for a week.I was immediately upset that we arrived at the hotel at 8 o'clock in the morning, and check-in at 14.00.I have been to the UAE more than once, and never from a night plane vacationers were kept in the lobby for several hours.For a fee -please, even now.If you don't pay, your room hasn't been cleaned yet! The hotel was half occupied.The rooms are ordinary, no frills.No water, no tea, no coffee-nothing, even as a greeting.There is a layer of greasy dust under the bed, the adapters do not work, the taps in the bathroom are flowing.If we don't like something, call us, they will do it, They cleaned the room on call, too, but there is one positive thing-they clean it with you.A separate song is breakfast.If you only have breakfast, then you need to buy everything in the store.For breakfast porridge, omelet (once there was this omelet porridge with rotten meat), chopped tomatoes and cucumbers, olives, olives, orange slices and one kind of buns.Everyone has one bottle of water.Coffee, tea in unlimited quantities.Breakfast is very modest.They save absolutely on everything!Right down to the toilet paper.We must ask them to bring it.Lunch is not bad, there is little variety, but everything is delicious.You won't stay hungry.You won't get much information during a meeting with a representative of a tour operator.If you don't take excursions, interest in you disappears immediately.And you won't see this representative again for the entire rest period.I want to say right away, so as not to forget that you will find out about the flight yourself.The driver is driving to the airport, without an escort.As a rule, the staff knows very little English, but you can learn everything on your fingers and gestures. There is a feeling that interest in you only until you pay for the ticket, and then somehow you will figure it out yourself.It is very difficult to get something out of the Russian-speaking girl Julia from the reception (she is from Ukraine), the information was extracted on the beach, since everyone got to know each other there and all Russian-speakers.Those who went on excursions were not very satisfied.They gather a bunch of people and all run after the guide, barely having time to hear and see something.All tickets to the most interesting places are paid separately.
Separately, it should be said that the hotel is located five meters from the mosque, so we listened to prayer every morning.The speaker is very loud.The mosque itself is beautiful.There is no territory around the hotel, dirt, the local population does not really keep clean, Children run in packs, yell, chase the ball,soda bottles are thrown right there.They took a bus to the beach, which is fenced and guarded.Very convenient.A small city beach is a 10-minute walk away.But a very clean toilet, locker room, shower.Everything is very civil.The only negative is a lot of Egyptians who cling, dance, grab hands.But you can dismiss them. You need to keep an eye on the bags.
They take you to shopping malls.There are branded stores there.There are shops with Indian-Pakistani goods near the hotel.I do not recommend the hotel! Spoil all impressions about the Emirates.It is better to take a little more expensive, but really relax, and not feel indebted for being allowed into this hotel.

At first we were a little disappointed with the hotel, there is a construction site outside the window, mold on the sink, the light bulb is flickering... We informed the reception about the problem in the room.... Everything was fixed in the shortest possible time. And so the hotel is magnificent, sensitive and attentive attitude to hotel guests, delicious and varied food, transfer to the beach, shopping malls and the airport, free beach towels, rooms are constantly cleaned, linen and towels are changed on time. At the end of the rest, I put a solid 5
The food is normal, you will not stay hungry until the beach 15 min.....the beach is normal, the service is good, the staff is all your requests on demand.....for 31 thousand per person for 10 days I think it's fine
The location is not very good, the streets are dirty in a circle, the food is 10 balls, the staff is good, the beach is good nearby. The rooms are cleaned normally.
We rested at the hotel in May 2021.A very good hotel, only positive impressions remained.The breakfasts were very tasty, especially the painted eggs and small buns for Easter were impressed. The attitude of the staff is excellent, all problems were solved instantly.Thank you so much for a wonderful stay.
The hotel is located in a remote quiet place, a quiet street, near the beach and a mosque. The rooms are comfortable, everything is there, everything works. Buffet meals, buffet for an additional fee of 30 dirhams. But there is a kettle in the room. There are good shops nearby, you can buy everything you need. The Internet works very well everywhere, the staff is friendly. There is a museum of Islamic culture nearby, entrance is 10 dirhams, description in Arabic and English, many halls, everything is interesting, it is possible with children from 5 years old. Nearby is also the Rain Museum and All rolla Square (entrance 2 dirzam). To the bus station on foot 35 minutes, by taxi 15 dirhams. I really liked the hotel. Thanks to the staff for a comfortable stay
I was at this hotel from March 29 to April 4, April 2021! I was surprised by the obsequious attitude of the service staff to us, tourists! The hotel itself is nice, the furniture is Oriental, the plumbing is excellent! In the restaurant, the senior chef Fatima cooks delicious and a lot! At lunch, for dessert, they gave watermelon (!) and pie, which the room took with it! At the reception, only Mohammed speaks Russian, English and understands the local Arabs! Very expensive excursions, so I did not take them, but went swimming and sunbathing on the "wild" beach, which is 10 minutes from the hotel!😣 It's hot in the afternoon, but it's cool in the morning and evening!!The water in the sea is warm, but when the waves are muddy!😣I put the air conditioner in the room at 25 ° and did not turn it off, otherwise you come from the beach - and the stuffiness in the room!!🙄Of the cons:-the area in front of the hotel entrance is not paved!That's why all the dust and dirt gets to the reception and to the rooms!🙄 Shops DON'T SELL souvenirs!!😣 Sellers don't know what it is!🤣 And it is desirable to remove the speaker on a nearby mosque or turn it in the other direction!😏 In general, I liked the trip to Sharjah!😍😣
We had a rest at the end of November with a small child .Sharjah was chosen only because of the proximity of the Persian Gulf.
The hotel is not bad in principle , we were settled immediately upon arrival , we didn 't have to wait for anything .
The rooms are beautiful, comfortable, but unfortunately there was no balcony (due to humidity, things do not dry) room cleaning is also a problem here !
I left a tip for the Pakistani to clean up normally, in the end they didn 't even come in . I have to constantly ask , they very rarely come in . He left money on the table , no one took it , brought him to the room and handed it to him , only then it got better .
I want to say that the breakfasts here are very tasty and satisfying !!! There are even different porridges, everything is written in Russian, very convenient. Lunch and dinner were not included in the package . If you want , you can order , but it costs 30 derham per person . We ate in a cafe not far from our hotel, there are incredibly large portions and prices come out in the order of 50 derham for two (to eat well) there was nothing cheaper except an Indian cafe near the mosque, but the food there is very spicy, though cheap. There is also a supermarket nearby, go through the mosque to the main road, turn left and there you will see. The beach is a 15-minute walk away, the wild is not equipped, there are no showers, no changing rooms, but it didn't bother us, and we were comfortable even with a baby. The water is very clean , there are a lot of shells and Pakistanis , especially on Friday ( since they have a day off) , they do not interfere , ordinary people . But , girls !!! If you want to walk around Sharjah in the evening , I strongly recommend wearing something covering your knees , because my wife went out in shorts and every passerby ate her with his gaze , I had to go back and change . It 's not very pleasant .
In Sharjah , there are singing fountains in the city center , if anything , they have not been working for at least 3 months !!!( you don 't have to go there )
But there is an aquarium , the price is only 25 derham per adult , and we really liked it 👍👍👍 especially impressed by the huge sea turtle , sharks , and so on . Although we were in the Dubai mall , the price is 10 times more expensive , but the impressions are not very good . I also want to say that taxis in Sharjah (in this emirate) are not accepted by card , only in cash . In Dubai itself , you can pay with a card , but if you say you are traveling from Dubai to Sharjah , you just give 20 dirhams for moving the emirate , plus boarding 3 dirhams and disembarking 3 dirhams , in general , a taxi is not a cheap pleasure .
The photos are beautiful, in fact everything is a little darker.We lived here for 9 nights, room cleaning is not good, often there was a lack of some kind of towel.The usual breakfast without frills, sausages, pasta, scrambled eggs, powdered coffee.
It is conveniently located,10 minutes walk to the beach,within walking distance of cafes and grocery stores.
Funny place. The mosque does not interfere, it is far from the beach.nearby are a couple of shops that I enriched by 1000 dirhams during my vacation. The food is ordinary, but decent! The rooms are spacious, but the windows in them are small. And so the hotel is 2017, so life is without problems. The staff is on the level. Do not change the currency at the reception, take the bus to the citycenter better, it's more profitable there!
We had a rest in April 2021. A good hotel, without a territory, a bus takes you to a nice beach to the sea. Food - you will not stay hungry, but there is not much choice, food is served in portions for lunch and dinner. Everything is clean in the hotel, there is a beach and a promenade within a 10-minute walk.
Hello! The hotel is great.. Only the place is deserted... The staff is super.. The most important thing is Russian-speaking.. it's a long way to swimming... yes, and the shops also need to go... there is no pool.. territories.. super markets are small in neighboring houses there is a lot of ice cream and water you can buy... Yeah, that's what's not clear in a restaurant with water.. tea is given only 1 time a day and so for a fee... meals can be changed from dinner to lunch without any problems... Rested For the New Year! Thanks
