A real dump! The food is terrible! One type of dry cheese and one sausage from camel or ram! You can only eat an omelette, but you need to stand in line for 20-25 minutes because the whole of Russia is behind it!!! The rooms are absolutely terrible, it feels like you are in a hostel for 7 families!!! The doors are gnawed, the frames are painted with floor paint 8 times like in the 90s at my grandmother's, the bathroom is a complete mess!!! It felt like I was in a hospital or morgue! When you look at these pipes and mixers, you ask yourself the question, where is the scalpel, saw and hammer 😂😂😂

WE WERE accommodated quickly, there were no problems with the language, there was a Russian-speaking administrator. The room was cleaned daily, towels and all shower sets were changed. 05 bottled water DAILY. The windows do not open but the air conditioning works. I really wanted to wash the window glass - dirty. Food for every taste was sufficient, especially good flatbreads with hot cheese and in the evening just flatbreads from tandoor. We had breakfast and dinner, but when we went on excursions we calmly went for lunch instead of dinner. We really liked the soups, sauces and meat and rice and vegetables. We ate our fill. THEN the beach. We had to come at 7 a.m. to borrow sun loungers because a bus from other hotels arrived at 7:30 and there weren’t enough sun loungers. However, the staff responded quickly and provided additional ones. Russians have a lot of children on vacation. The water is clean and fish swim near the shore

We flew in January 2018, we were very lucky with the weather - it was warm, but the sea was a cool 20°. The children swam only in the pool (there are 3 of them, with different water temperatures and depths). The hotel itself is located on the outskirts (there is nowhere to walk outside the territory), but there was line 1. The room was on the 7th floor with a view of the sea, there were no balconies. Meals included breakfast + dinner (dinner can be changed for lunch). I really liked the breakfasts (scrambled eggs, omelettes, pancakes, waffles, fresh juices), but lunches with dinner were not very... A lot of spices!!! The soups are very spicy, in a week I was lucky to feed the children normal vermechelle soup with chicken (they didn’t add enough pepper:), of course you won’t leave hungry... Overall a good hotel.

We only stayed in this hotel for 4 days as we were transiting through the UAE. But during these days we managed to enjoy our vacation. We booked through the website, the staff was friendly, and upon arrival we checked in quickly. The room was a standard double, spacious, very bright overlooking the beach, with all amenities.
During these days we visited several restaurants, in the hotel itself, ordered breakfast in the room, it was delicious, fruits, scrambled eggs and bacon, coffee, and pastries. We went for dinner to the Kazan restaurant, located 10 minutes away at the Al Seef Hotel. The atmosphere is very pleasant, the staff is friendly. We ordered “Dorada” fish, very tender, fresh, and fried ribs (juicy, tender meat.) The prices pleasantly surprised us.
We swam on the beach in the pool, there are four of them, two for children. Private beach clean, the sea was warm and transparent. There were enough sun loungers and umbrellas, enough for everyone. There is a beautiful winter garden with birds and a fish pond.
We even managed to go on one excursion, a sightseeing tour of Dubai. We were impressed by the beauty of the Middle East, the singing fountains are amazing. The excursion was purchased from the Shan Tours company at the Summer land hotel, a 10-minute drive to the hotel, the company was found via the Internet. Good guide, explained everything interestingly, thank you.

I'll start, perhaps, with the sea. This is why most people go on vacation, I had a slightly different goal - excursions and shopping in Duba, Abu Dhabi. So, the beach is clean. I never saw a single glass or piece of paper. White sand, without stones or algae, the sea is clean and calm. I swam almost every day early in the morning. The beach is full of sun loungers, so I never had any problems with them. In addition to the sea, there are three swimming pools, around which there are also sun loungers. The water in them is sea and heated. The design of the building itself is unique and very beautiful. The entire first floor, including the reception and restaurant, is a huge oasis with trees and waterfalls, with ponds and fish in them. The view is certainly wonderful; no words or photos can describe it. I only took breakfast, since I didn’t plan to spend all the time at the hotel. The food was always excellent, no complaints. Wonderful coffee. Service is up to par. Although my room was standard, it was large and comfortable, and most importantly, with a view of the sea. Buses ran constantly from the hotel throughout the day until the evening. I got everything I wanted from Radisson Blue. I'll definitely come back here.

Good day to all. It took us a long time to choose a hotel, but we finally settled on Radisson. Since this famous network hotels. We were met right away. It took about two hours to drive from Al Muktum airport. They settled very quickly. On the third floor. Smoking rooms. They don't have balconies. It was disappointing. There is no strong smell, the hood works well. But I would really like to sit on the balcony and look at the beautiful view from the room. On the sea. The rooms are very good, large soft bed, very pleasant bed linen. Cleaned every day. The hotel has its own beach. The water is clear, cleaners are constantly walking around and removing every piece of paper from the water too. In January the water was cool, but we swam anyway. The hotel also has 3 heated swimming pools. Nutrition - Buffet. We took breakfast and dinner, you can change it for lunch. Very convenient when you go on an excursion with dinner. Very varied dishes, all very tasty. Everything is always fresh, you can squeeze orange juice for breakfast. Delicious mango smoothie in bottles. And in general there are a lot of mango desserts. Excursions were taken from a guide. I really liked the Safari in the sands, on Land Cruisers and the flower park. Overall I really liked everything. We highly recommend this hotel. He is the best in Sharjah!

Hi all. I stayed at the Radisson Hotel in September last year. Plus of this hotel is that it is located on the first coastline and has its own beach. I liked the hotel lobby, everything is in Arabic style, two hotel employees are Russian-speaking. On the floors there is already a more consistent style in the interior; the second floor, as I understand it, is for the elite and local residents. The hotel staff are all newcomers, but very polite and very friendly, they always say hello and smile. I chose a non-smoking room without a balcony. The bathroom has a bidet, toilet, bathtub, sink with mirror, hairdryer. The bed is excellent, wide and well made by the maid. The windows covered the entire wall, but did not open, overlooking the sea, very beautiful. The room is good, there is a TV, the linen was changed 2 times a day. White sand beach with clear, blue water. Area with a garden, three swimming pools, one for children. The water in it is warmer than in the sea, which was pleasing. There is a SPA, Gym, expensive stores. The hotel restaurant is on the ground floor, only breakfast was included in the tour, there is a buffet, there is food, it is tasty, fresh, fruit in abundance. Overall, I enjoyed my stay, look forward to more!

Pros: Neat, comfortable room.Comfortable baby cot.There is a dressing room for things.Conscientious cleaning.The staff promptly responds to problems that arise for guests.Deep open pool with sea water.Excellent breakfast dishes, tasty and varied.

Minuses: The locks in the room often break and the electronic key becomes demagnetized.The sea is very dirty, it is dangerous to swim, so the hotel is not recommended for a beach holiday.There is an acrid smell everywhere, coming from the nearby shipyard.

There are free shuttles from the hotel. Shuttle Buses to major shopping centers in the resorts of Sharjah and Dubai.Close to the beach.

Minuses: Old furniture in the room.

The choice fell on Radisson Blu Resort Sharjah 5*, a hotel within the city with its own beach. Before the trip, we read a lot of reviews that were mixed. But we decided to go, and immediately after returning I want to express my impressions of this hotel.

AIR CARRIER. Rest 08/19-08/26/2019. Departure from Boryspil airport (Kyiv) at 19.20, UIA airline ( International airlines Ukraine). The flight was about 5 hours, the flight was late by 20 minutes and the location of the Gate at the airport was transferred to the board at check-in, which gave reason to run around and get nervous. A very uncomfortable board was served. The distance between the seats is minimal, the interior is dirty. We arrived with difficulty, our back and legs simply fell off.
Back - departure at 3.20 from Dubai airport, flight was 30 minutes late, a more comfortable and clean plane was served, we could stretch our legs and get some sleep.
On board UIA there is food according to the menu (for euros) or lunch according to his booking on the air ticket. Only water is provided free of charge.
24 hours before departure, you need to register on the airline’s website and show your boarding pass in electronic or paper form when checking in at the airport. If you try to change the seats in the cabin issued at electronic registration, the site showed free options, but the cost of this option was in euros - from 6 to 14 per seat, if tickets were taken through a travel agency. In the Emirates, it was not possible to register on the airline’s website; the network was displaying an error. But there were no problems - the airport issued a boarding pass without registration and with good seats.

THE HOST. Desert Adventures Company. We met at the airport and immediately provided a transfer for 8 people. Our hotel was the first, we were there in 20 minutes. Everything back was also prompt - the transfer arrived on time, minute by minute, the driver took us to the airport and helped us unload our things. The guide Natalia was at the hotel the next day of our arrival; we didn’t take any excursions, so I can’t say about their cost, which is also not indicated in the company’s booklet. We didn't see the guide again.

HOTEL. Radisson Blu Resort Sharjah 5* was opened back in 1982. This is one of the oldest hotels in the emirate, located on Corniche st., an area of old Sharjah, an area where the main residents are Pakistanis and Indians. The large Al Noor Mosque is located next to the hotel building. The hotel building in the form of a trapezoid has 15 floors and about two dozen bungalows near the pool area. The lobby (the L on the elevator button) is beautifully designed and it is clear that this area is constantly being updated. On floor G there is a winter garden with beautiful waterfall and fish. This is a feature of the hotel, because... it looks amazing.
Registration took 10 minutes. No deposit was taken. We were accommodated on the 10th floor, in a non-smoking room.

Room – Standard Sea View, with an area of about 35 m2. It has two separate beds (very comfortable with amazing linen), plasma TV with 62 channels (3 Russian), a table, two armchairs, a bedside table, several lamps, air conditioning, a kettle, tea/coffee sets, a safe and a minibar ( photo of the number is attached). Upon registration, two electronic room keys are issued. It was a little confusing that the closet is adjacent to the toilet and shower room. It is clear that the plumbing is new (but there were problems with the drainage in the shower), and the furniture in the room requires updating (scratches and chips are visible on it). The window is dirty and does not open. Things take a long time to dry.

The floor covering in the room was stained. In the bathroom upon check-in, there were several bottles of shower gel, shampoo, conditioner, body lotion, and one towel each for feet, hands and shower. There were no bathrobes, soap, slippers, adapter, toothbrushes, sponge/toothpick sets, razors, shower caps, which should be mandatory for five-star hotels. In order to have all this in the room or to clean it, you need to press the One Touch Service button on your phone. Everything was delivered very quickly, and cleaning was done superficially during all the days of our vacation; dust was present on the furniture, lamps, and TV.

Near the reception, on the right, you can pick up a free map and guide to Sharjah.

INTERNET. Wi-Fi works throughout the hotel, without a password, even on the beach. There are no complaints about his work.

NUTRITION. We had breakfast, and had lunch and dinner in the city or in our room. Breakfast is served in the Cafe at the Falls, the hotel's conservatory (photo attached), on floor G, from 6.30 to 11.00. If you plan to sit near a waterfall, be careful, because... The laminate near the tables was slightly warped due to dampness. For all the days of rest, we must pay tribute to the chef, stability is his credo - all days the breakfast was the same, and this is: four types of juices (tomato, tropical, apple and orange), slices of cucumbers, tomatoes and lettuce, three types of muesli , milk, two types of cold cuts and cheese, boiled eggs, corn porridge, sausages, rice with vegetables, beans in red sauce, three types of sweet pastries, coffee, tea, watermelon, melon and fruit mix. They also make pancakes, waffles and omelettes in front of you.

Variety was sometimes added to dishes with pickled cucumbers and carrots, canned peaches and a tube of lemonade. It seems like you have a choice and you won’t go hungry, but everything is monotonous. If you have lunch and dinner at the hotel without reference to the tour, then the price will be 132 and 145 dirhams per person, respectively. Also does the hotel have a 24 hour Chill Out Caf? with drinks, confectionery and light snacks, as well as Caf? Calypso in the pool area beach club. We also noticed that the hotel was very uncrowded on our holiday days.

BEACH. The hotel on floor L has access to the gym, Spa, Beach Club, which is open from 6.00 to 20.30. Many reviews wrote ambiguously about the sea and the plant near the beach. We were generally pleased with the beach. During our vacation, the water in it was clear, pleasant, the entrance to it was large White sand. There were practically no people, silence. Fish swim, herons and large seagulls and ducks walk along the beach. The beach is constantly cleaned, the sunbeds are new. The sand was sifted, also without debris.

There were a couple of jellyfish with long tentacles in the water. You can rent a boat for boat trip, beach accessories. Only on the last day did oil stains, some turbidity in the water, and garbage appear in the sea, which was immediately collected by beach workers. The pools had nice chilled water and were clean. It was very comfortable to freshen up in them. Several hotel cats were also seen around them, impudent and always hungry.

ATTRACTIONS. The Museum of Islamic Civilization is located next to the hotel. Entrance is 10 dirhams, open until 20.00. You can also take an audio guide at the entrance with an excellent explanation of the museum’s exhibitions (they take a passport as collateral). On two floors of the museum there are four galleries of excellent collections on the history of the development of Arab civilization and a hall of ancient Arab science and technology. Photography is permitted. Also on the second floor there is a room with a dome in the shape of the sky with the signs of the Zodiac. There is a small cafe on the ground floor.

Behind the museum, a ten-minute walk away, is another attraction - the Sharjah Art Museum. The entrance is free. Open until 20.00. The museum has 18 halls of contemporary Arab art - paintings, sculptures, installations. Photography is permitted without flash.

Also next to the hotel there is the famous art object Rain Room, or the hall of eternal rain. Thanks to motion sensors, you can move around in a continuous stream of rain, stretch your arms and take selfies without getting wet. As soon as the visitor crosses the boundary of the installation, the water stops pouring over him, but continues to flow everywhere around him. The Rain Room is located in Al-Mahhara Park and is a dark underground chamber where falling streams of water are illuminated only by a spotlight. Visitors are allowed in at a rate of 6 people every 15 minutes. The ticket costs 25 dirhams. You can order it in advance through the website (but there were reviews that the money was withdrawn from the card, and scans of tickets were not sent to the mail) or as we did: on the way to the Museum of Islamic Civilization, we went to the Rain Room and bought two tickets for the next day for 19.00. You must arrive 10 minutes before the start. I advise you to visit this site, enjoy the rain and take beautiful photographs as a souvenir. The facility is open until 21.00.

Also beautiful is the Sharjah Aquarium (closed on Sunday) and located nearby Maritime Museum.

You can always call a taxi when leaving the hotel.

CAFE, SHOPPING CENTERS. Near the Radisson Blu Resort Sharjah 5* hotel there is a Kebab Bazar cafe, several points selling hamburgers and shawarma. There are many small cafes of Indo-Pakistani cuisine on the streets. I won’t say anything about the assortment and prices; we didn’t dare eat there. Opposite the Rain Room there is a large LuLu hypermarket (address: Branch 7, Al Naba's). It has three floors - a grocery market, stationery, cosmetics, appliances and a clothing floor. Opposite LuLu there is a large currency exchange office. Also next to the hotel, 20 minutes away there is the Carrefour City Center Al Nasseria shopping center. All of them are open until 00.00.

The hotel offers daily transfers to Sahara Center, Mega Mall, Sharjah City Center and Dubai Outlet Mall.

CONCLUSION. The Radisson Blu Resort Sharjah 5* hotel, in principle, pleased with the beach, interior design of the lobby and convenient location to the historical sights of the city and shopping centers. Its price matches its quality. Of the minuses, it can be noted: the hotel is located in the old district of Sharjah, near an industrial zone, a port, with a peculiar Pakistani and Indian flavor, surrounded by several mosques. The hotel requires restoration of the number of rooms, soundproofing of the rooms and constant monitoring of the cleanliness of the beach line.

The hotel is good, but already old))).
Hello, about our holiday in the UAE, first time May 2019. RAMADAN
For some reason, I wasn’t even alarmed by the fact that there were 16 of us on the plane, but then they told me that it’s Ramadan in the UAE and there are almost no tourists at this time. I’ll say right away that I bought a ticket a day before departure, I wanted to take the children to the sea, the closest place I could fly where it was warm from the allowed countries turned out to be the UAE.
Arrival:
We arrived at Dubai airport in the evening, were met by a guide and put into the car, drove to the hotel on a Minibus in 1 hour and 20 minutes, and dropped off some tourists at the Marina. The guide did not go with us to the hotel, he said that there would be no problems with check-in and left somewhere along the road.
Check-in:
We arrived at the hotel late, no one speaks RUSSIAN. We moved in immediately, there is no tax in Sharjah, no deposit was taken. They fed us dinner, we took breakfast and dinner. There is only one man in the hotel who speaks Russian, he works at the reception (it doesn’t always happen at night), no one else from the staff will understand you (if you don’t speak English well).
Number:
The rooms are already old, a lot of wood and carpets already have a specific smell, I was very worried, since the child is allergic, but everything worked out. We lived on the 5th floor. Room with two single beds. There are no balconies in this hotel; windows open only upon request. The hotel manager came in the morning, we did not understand each other, but after his arrival they immediately brought a small bed for the child. The room has an electronic safe, a mini refrigerator (ours was empty), bathrobes, slippers, shampoo, shower gel, hair conditioner, soap, body lotion, everything was left in large quantities. There is an ironing board and iron. Cleaning every day, no problems with towels, bed sheets were changed every day. Also a TV with two Russian channels, a kettle, water, cafe tea, sugar, cream. Take an adapter with you or you will have to buy it there, there are a lot of sockets, only there was only one adapter in the room, we bought a second one.
Hotel:
The hotel area is small, you can only stay and eat there, nothing else to do on the ground floor huge waterfall, which the first nights prevented me from sleeping, I got used to the sound of water and prayers after 5 days. 2 elevators arrive quickly.
Beach:
The beach is very good sand shallow, entry into the sea is smooth, super for children. It’s clean, the only port nearby is right across the breakwater, it’s a little strange when huge ships arrive, but we didn’t see any dirt. There aren’t very many sunbeds and umbrellas (but there were about 15 vacationers, I repeat, because it’s Ramadan, so we didn’t have any problems, but given how busy the hotel is, I don’t think there will be enough for everyone. During our period, there wasn’t even a bar on the beach and there was a problem with water, We went to the store to buy. Everything near the pool was closed, except for the wooden slide on the beach, there was nothing for the children to do at the sea during this period only until 12.00, then it was very hot and then only after 16.00. small children's room with a small canopy. Towels on cards near the pool.
Near the hotel:
In the evenings we walked around Sharjah and knew everything around us!!! Next door to the port, if you walk along the embankment there are a lot of Indians and fishing boats, the smell is very bad and strong. There is a mosque next to the hotel and they constantly played prayers very often and very loudly, they even disturbed our sleep. Not far away, about 5 minutes on foot and you are in a large food supermarket, it is open around the clock, but all other stores opened only after 19.00, along the road there are many cafes and shops, pharmacies, markets, if you forgot something, be sure to buy everything. The air conditioning in the stores works very hard, you walk in and freeze. The weather was very hot. You can’t eat on the streets, you can’t even chew gum for a child, you can’t drink water either, you had to cover the child with a jacket and let him drink.
Nutrition
In the hotel restaurant, a festive dinner began at 19.00 and all the locals came, celebrated, there were a lot of people, and then at 21.00 the usual dinner for hotel residents began. We are not very picky about food, breakfast is the usual eggs, porridge, cereal, although the juice is very tasty and freshly squeezed, local sausage and cheese, toast, vegetables, there was always fruit salad, there was not enough fruit, only for breakfast watermelon, melon and canned peaches, dinner there was no fruit at all, twice we saw a couple of oranges and apples. For dinner there was always chicken, meat, sometimes fish, puree soups, salads that were really terrible and very often there were a lot of flies around them. There weren't many sweets at all, just cake and jelly, pasta, potatoes, some dishes were very spicy.
Eviction:
Check-out is at 12.00, we paid extra and they let us stay without any problems because the flight was after 16.00 and we didn’t want to sit at the reception with the children.
From the not pleasant:
In the evening I was sitting with two children on the sofa right opposite the reception, we were getting ready to go for a walk, we went out the door and remembered that the children had forgotten their sunglasses and baseball caps on the table, they returned in less than 2 minutes, but nothing happened. The girls from the reception turned away from me and showed with gestures that they didn’t understand me (even though there was even a camera there). It’s a pity that the children were upset, but it was no longer pleasant, then they were smarter and more attentive to things. At the hotel, no one will explain or give you any advice, the staff does not speak Russian and is not very friendly.
Where to go:
My eldest child, 5 years old, and I took a taxi to the aquarium in Sharjah, we were there ALONE, he really liked it, and we went to a museum nearby, a common ticket. In Ramadan there is no one anywhere, emptiness is everywhere, but look at the schedule on the Internet, everything works according to a different schedule. True, they barely found a taxi back, because it was time for prayers, there were about 20 cars parked, but they couldn’t go until they all read long prayers. I had to go out onto a huge highway and catch a car there. I went everywhere alone with my child in a taxi, all on the meter, there were no seats, I held the little one in my arms for 2 years. The stroller is placed in the trunk; in all taxis it is empty. We also went to an amusement park and to the market with trains, also by taxi on our own, and walked everywhere, we took all the information from the Internet, a lot of things were closed during this Ramadan period, for example, we never got to the fountains.
