Does Occidental Sharjah Grand have a restaurant? Holidays in the UAE grand sharjah

Due to their age, they risked conducting an experiment on a sudden change in climate and flew to the UAE. Why Sharjah - because there is prohibition there. We needed a hotel with a beach holiday, not far from the center, and the choice fell on the Occidental Sharjah Gran. He has good recommendations and a location that suits our needs. Let's say right away that everything was great. We were accommodated immediately, even though we arrived earlier. The room was excellent - we were amazed by the size of the bed, we could look for each other. Magnificent bed linen. Amazing view from the balcony of the sea and the beach. The balcony is designed in such a way that you can stay there the whole day. You can’t hear your neighbors. Large TV and three Russian programs. Change of linen and towels, replenishment of water, coffee and tea regularly. The beach is large and clean. There are enough sunbeds, butthe habit of some of them occupying them in the morning and appearing in the evening was indignant. We didn't use the pool because we were swimming in the sea. Breakfast, as everywhere else, is monotonous, but satisfying and everyone could choose something for themselves. The coffee, in our opinion, let us down a little, but we are picky about this drink. There is enough fruit. Dinner is just good. There are three supermarkets nearby and we bought something for lunch if we didn’t have lunch while walking. Since we like to walk and look, we got to the center on foot - about 15-20 minutes. We saw palaces and houses of the indigenous population, dizzying skyscrapers. But three times we took a taxi, it was inexpensive, since we were “transitioning”. We only went on excursions to Abu Dhabi. We were amazed by the city, the Louvre and, of course, the wonder of the world - the Mosque. .In general, we are happy to recommend this hotel, and individual shortcomings do not affect its rating. Why "SUMMER-WINTER" because we returned home for the first time from +28 to -20. But the memory of the trip will not freeze.

We vacationed in March with our 14-year-old daughter. We got from the airport by transfer from Anex. We had wonderful weather and a warm sea during our two-week holiday. We liked the hotel, it lives up to its stars one hundred percent. Its own beach, fully equipped with everything you need, plus an on-site swimming pool with sun loungers and umbrellas.. The rooms are of an average level, but everything was in order and the furniture was intact. There was enough for two of us, the beds were separate, the air conditioning was working. The staff is friendly. Cleaning was done daily, towels were changed, all the necessary products were added to the bathroom, water was left, and the tea set was replenished. We liked the food at the hotel; we enjoyed the full, hearty breakfasts every day. Sharjah is a beautiful, green emirate. We walked a lot. There are many cafes, restaurants and shops around. I want to warn you about one thing. Sanobar, a fish restaurant near the city's Al Khan beach and not far from the Sharjah Aquarium, is highly not recommended. Very dirty room. not all products are fresh. The impression is extremely unpleasant. Moreover, there was an incomprehensible upset after the visit, although I don’t want to blame anyone, but still. Also from the hotel the bus is coming to the city center. They also take it to Dubai. Taxi is expensive, I warn you right away, especially if you get stuck in a traffic jam. We went on excursions twice. To Dubai with a visit to Burj Khalifa. And to Abu Dhabi, the capital of the UAE. It was interesting. Very interesting and comfortable stay

. I recommend the hotel.

not bad at all. I liked the rooms, service, beach, interior and exterior decoration. The presence of Russian-speaking managers pleased me. Food is average. We had breakfast, but it was rather sparse. As a result, we ate at the Kazan restaurant across the street at the Al Seef hotel, the children were delighted with the home-cooked food, and we felt good. From the hotel, transfer to the center to the MALL, the second bus takes you to Dubai. Have a nice holiday everyone!

We went to Sharjah with friends, the trip was on the occasion of my anniversary.) It was a great trip, very fun and educational. We chose the hotel on the recommendation of a travel agent and did not regret it. Cool place, good rooms, great service! On my birthday I received congratulations from the hotel, it was very pleasant.) We celebrated at the Russian-Tatar restaurant Kazan in the Al Seef hotel, not far from ours, it was recommended to us at the reception.) It was good that we had a lot of money, the table they prepared for us was simply excellent, it’s only a pity that Prohibition . But in the morning I didn’t have a headache)) The price was quite adequate, and there was plenty of food. Afterwards we had dinner there a couple more times. The rest of the time we traveled, lay on the beach and just got a buzz from the sun and sea in the middle of autumn.) I sincerely recommend a holiday in the Emirates, the level of service is a hundred times better than what we have in the southern regions!

I went with my beloved to the Sharjah Grand Hotel at the end of August. I chose for a long time, I wanted everything to be good and the price to be reasonable. The tour operator's manager recommended this hotel, I agreed and have no regrets at all. Really a good place for relax. The room was for two, very spacious with everything you need inside. The air conditioning is working, this is the most important thing) TV, hairdryer, kettle. I was very pleased with the presence of a safe, it’s somehow calmer when money and documents are locked up. The food at the hotel is not bad, we had breakfast and lunch. For dinner we went to the neighboring Al Seef hotel, where the restaurant of my favorite Russian-Tatar cuisine is located, called Kazan. The food there is very tasty. For those who are not a big fan of dramatically changing their diet and want delicious homemade food, I highly recommend this restaurant. True, there are a lot of people there in the evening, but everyone is their own, as they say.) We were also on an excursion in Dubai, I had long dreamed of seeing this city in person. Expectations were justified, it’s simply fabulous there in the evening! We also visited the capital of the UAE, Abu Dhabi, and also experienced the real thrill and extreme of the Desert Safari. I sincerely recommend a holiday in the Emirates to everyone, in particular at the Sharjah Grand Hotel.

I would like to note that this hotel with a huge beach and outdoor pool. It is equipped with umbrellas and sunbeds, which are always enough for everyone. The food is delicious, buffet, European and Arabic dishes, everything is on the level. The cleaning is good, I change towels and linen often, they don’t steal money. Entertainment is nearby, about ten minutes walk to the superb Sharjah Aquarium. There is also a fish restaurant nearby, the food tastes so-so and we didn’t get off the toilet that night (sorry for the details, apparently we were poisoned). We went on a tour of the desert, really enjoyed it, rode jeeps, camels, watched the sunrise and had dinner in the desert.

I saved up for a trip to the United Arab Emirates and chose a vacation in Sharjah. The Carlton Hotel impressed me right from the door. For its 4 stars it is simply gorgeous. Very beautiful rooms, they gave me a choice. Convenient location, the pools are clean and easy to access. I had a great rest and decided to go shopping. While still on the plane I was thinking: I’ll buy a mink coat or some small clothes. The fur coat took over - I imagined it and could no longer stop thinking about it. Since I work as an assistant manager, my appearance should be on point and my fur coat too, a short one is just right to wear with a skirt and business style. Outside the hotel I liked the fur shop, but I don’t remember the name. I decided to look for something new. The seller turned out to be a Russian girl, Evgenia, although she was terribly playful. But that’s all right, I know what I need. They tried it on and didn’t try it on - they didn’t have my size. They offered a transfer at the expense of the store through their network to another address, I went. The driver is surprisingly rude - he probably forgot who feeds him. Came to new shop– I found a couple of options, tried it on – it fit. The purchase was a success, I thought already in the room, seeing that this is not Greece at all, but Chinese China itself. I went to return it with the police, with the war, but returned the money. Luckily I caught it in time. Very bad impression from this office, I do not recommend them under any circumstances. And especially don’t be fooled by this Evgenia’s persuasion!!! The Emirate of Sharjah is beautiful, I liked absolutely everything about the hotel!

The plane arrived at 2 am, at the airport we were handed a package with the name of the guide and a list of excursions and taken to a hotel, where they simply refused to accept us, offering to spend the night, pay money in the amount of 120 dollars to a neighboring (not very attractive) hotel, and saying that they will come for us in the morning. But alas... no one needed us and we dragged our suitcases to the hotel ourselves in the heat. But when we were checked in, the appearance of the room and the view from the window immediately changed the mood - from disgusting to wonderful. The hotel is of course not in the city center and there is nowhere to walk in the evening. It takes about 20 minutes to walk to the nearest supermarket. Free buses to two large stores in Dubai every day from the hotel, there are always a lot of people. You need to be careful, sometimes cornet jellyfish come to the shore and cause a painful burn. General impression rest is good. At the hotel reception, the Russian-speaking girl Karina is responsive and tries to solve problems that arise. I would like to go back there again......

We rested with the whole family, on a voucher, and I’ll immediately note that we really liked the hotel. The room was spacious, clean, with beautiful view to the Persian Gulf, everything was necessary, refrigerator, air conditioning, TV, wi-fi, minibar. Room cleaning is done daily.
Breakfast was standard, buffet style. We usually ate at nearby restaurants; in the Al Seef Hotel, 5 minutes from our hotel, there is a Kazan restaurant on the ground floor. We took set lunches, large portions, affordable prices, and there is also a children's menu. Okroshka is just what you need in this heat, my son liked the cranberry juice, it’s refreshing, the food is very tasty, homemade. The service staff is friendly and food is served quickly.
The hotel has its own beach, just a minute's walk, there is a tennis court, you can have fun. Large swimming pool with water slide, lots of sun loungers. Went to the hot tubs and spa. While we were at the procedures, the children had fun playground. (I recommend this hotel to vacationers with children).
We went on excursions, the Dolphin Show was fun and exciting. The singing fountains were magical, immersed in the luxurious Middle East of Abu Dhabi. And visited different universes in theme park Img worlds of adventure. My son was delighted with Marvela. All excursions were bought opposite our hotel across the road at the Summer land hotel, Shan Tours company, we were recommended by a family vacationing with us. Nice price and a good program.
We had an unforgettable vacation.

We just returned from a trip and decided to write a review, as they say, while the memories are still alive. We arrived at the Sharjah hotel at 10 o'clock in the morning and we were immediately checked in. Angela met us. She told and showed everything. We got a room with a view of the city. All is clear. There was a bottle of water and a full minibar. Cleaning is carried out every day, but we put up a sign so that they wouldn’t come to us again. When asked to clean, they came quickly and cleaned efficiently. A tablet and phone were left in the room, nothing was missing. Wifi is paid, 5 dirhams per hour, or 10 dirhams for 3 hours. The neighbor's internet was available from the balcony, so we used it. We were pleased with the reception and accommodation. The hotel is excellently located. There are places to take a walk. It's very beautiful all around. We went shopping by taxi. We went to the Sharjah Zoo, the Dreamland water park, and a safari. The beach is very good, big and clean. The sea is also clean and warm. Large swimming pool with warm water. Children's beach under the shade, with the same warm water. The beach and pool are the highest rating. Food is expensive. To dine at the hotel you need to pay 35 dollars per person. The children ate fast food with pleasure. From breakfast we took away buns and sausages to take away. We weren't the only ones who did this. There is no alcohol anywhere at all. You can only drink alcohol in your room. So, when you eat, think through everything in advance in duty free. We went for 7 days, I’ll say this is not enough for Dubai. We didn't have time to see much. Therefore, we will definitely return to the same hotel, as we were delighted with the beach. We took home a full baggage of impressions.

I vacationed in this hotel with my husband and 15-year-old son. I really liked everything. After reading the reviews, we came to the conclusion that we should take meals at the hotel, since eating in restaurants is expensive. That's what we did. They checked us in right away. The room was spacious with a balcony. The view from the balcony was simply stunning. There was a new safe, they kept all their valuables in it. There are a lot of vacationers at the hotel, but this does not affect the service in any way. The hotel area is small, you could walk along the beach along three hotels, this slightly compensated for the cramped space. Everyone liked the food, everyone found something for themselves. There was always chicken, meat, fish, pasta, and potatoes cooked in in different forms. Everything was always very tasty, from vegetables to meat. We also tried soups and liked them. Breakfast is basically the same as everywhere else. The hotel has a large heated swimming pool, the water temperature is just slightly below body temperature. Swim comfortably in any weather. There was a bit of difficulty with English, since none of us are fluent in English. The girls Zhenya and Angela (organizers of excursions at the hotel) helped us, for which special thanks to them. We went on excursions to Dubai, Abu Dhabi and also to Indian Ocean. Amazing interesting excursions, I advise you to take it. We learned a lot of interesting things about the UAE. We're glad we didn't go to a city hotel. There is enough dust, city pressure, and enough at home. Hotel Sharjah, a very quiet place, next to an excellent beach and a clean, warm sea.

We went on vacation in August. They took Standart room on the 4th floor, with beautiful view on the sea. The room is ordinary, modest in size, it certainly could use some updating. I would say that the entire hotel could use some cosmetic renovations. The rooms were cleaned daily. Everything was in good order. Towels were changed every day, and bath accessories were also replenished. The pressure in the tap was rather weak - this is perhaps a minus. The food is very good. Milk porridge was served for breakfast every day. The beach at the hotel is decent, wide and clean. The hotel has a nice perk. Free transportation to shopping centers Sharjah and Dubai. We had a very good rest.

We vacationed in Sharjah in May 2015; we came to the Emirates for the first time. The hotel is located 5 km from the center and 15 km from the airport. Hotel Sharjah is one of the most popular and most visited. Here clean beach, there are museums and shops nearby. The hotel fully justifies its 4-star status. Beautiful building, in Arabic style. It can be seen that it is updated in a timely manner. I booked a standard room. The room had comfortable furniture, a safe, air conditioning, a balcony, a TV, a minibar and dishes. Cleaning was done every day. Linen was changed every three days or upon request. The hotel area is beautiful, a lot of greenery and its own beach. The beach is clean, with white sand, there are umbrellas and sunbeds in sufficient quantities. I had breakfast included. Meal method - buffet. The food is delicious and varied. Mostly I ate at the Kazan restaurant. because I prefer regular food. I went to Dubai on my own to go shopping and bought a lot of things. I saw the magnificent Parus Hotel and the singing fountains, I recommend it, as it is really very beautiful.

Convenient location, clean, spacious rooms. For an additional fee you can take a room with a sea view.There is a maritime museum and an aquarium nearby.There are lifeguards on duty at the hotel pool and there is a children's playground.The food is varied.Transfers to three shopping centers are offered.

Minuses: The hotel area is small, there is nowhere to walk.The pool is very deep, it is dangerous to swim with children.The food may be stale, tea and coffee are not offered in the room.The reception staff does not always respond to requests from vacationers; they offer to carry bags only upon check-in and check-out.There is a bag search at the entrance to the beach.

Hotel reviews 2011 of the year

The hotel corresponds to the 4* level. The area is compact but very pleasant. Guests of other hotels do not use the hotel's beach. 50% of hotel rooms have sea views, 50% have city views. Maximum occupancy - 2+1. All rooms have balconies. When booking half board, you can exchange dinner for lunch. If, when purchasing a tour, the tourist paid only for breakfast, then you can purchase dinner or lunch on the spot - 110 dirhams....

My wife and I recently returned from the UAE (we vacationed in September 2011). We were there for the fourth time in the last 4 years - well, we love this country! This time we went to Sharjah (it’s very close to Dubai, practically the same city, although formally it’s a different emirate), we stayed at the Sharjah Grand Hotel. We bought it from Natalie Tours, the manager praised this option to us. The hotel fully corresponds to the description, photos and positive reviews about it. Nice clean area, comfortable beach, perfect cleanliness...

In December my husband and I vacationed in United Arab Emirates, in Sharjah - this is a town near Dubai, they practically turn into one another. On the advice of manager Natalie Tours, we lived in the Sharjah Grand Hotel 4*. We chose this hotel and Sharjah in general because in Dubai there are simply no hotels on the first line for that kind of money, it would have been at least 2 times more expensive if we lived on Jumeirah Beach, but we wanted to relax by the water and for a reasonable price. A little about the hotel. This is a solid four and well worth the money. Very spacious, comfortable...

I will join those who positively characterized this hotel. We rested from 01/02/2011 to 01/09/2011 and were satisfied with the time we spent in this hotel and in the UAE. The return journey was somewhat tiring, because... We landed for refueling in Baku (Heydar Aliyev Airport) and the return trip took 8 hours instead of 6. The weather was good and sunny. The air was about +23+25, the water +22. All the tourists and the local population swam too. We took a room with a sea view, but upon arrival at the hotel it turned out that only Luke was available...

I'm glad that the hotel is located on the coast. The staff is polite, Russian speaking. Free transfer from the hotel to Dubai...

Hotel reviews 2009 of the year

It is very inexpensive compared to hotels in Jumeirah. At the same time it is much more comfortable. The water is clean. Even when big waves. If you want to relax for a week on a budget and lie on the beach with a book, without thinking about anything, this is the place for you. Flight Transaero. Everything is as usual. Neither good nor bad, nothing at all. But without negativity. By the way, business and improved economy are terribly old chairs, not folding, you can’t lie down. Slightly larger than regular economy seats. Consider whether it's worth paying more. Cigarettes and alcohol in Dubai...

Good afternoon We recently returned from a trip to the Emirates. The hotel is wonderful, great pool and view. The only negative, in my opinion, is the breakfast and the distance from shops and restaurants. The bus takes you from the hotel several times a day for free to Dubai and Sharjah. And the hotel itself is good, clean, comfortable and the staff is friendly and everyone understands Russian. The hotel has 90% Russian vacationers. I recommend it to everyone who likes a calm and quiet rest. We went as a family and we all enjoyed it. I recommend....

The hotel is good! The rooms are cleaned and linen is changed daily, the staff is friendly, everyone understands Russian, and the girls at the reception and in the restaurant speak excellent Russian. The food is of high quality, there is enough of everything, everything is tasty, there are always rolls and lightly salted red fish. Breakfast, as everywhere else, is monotonous, but good. The sweet table is not as plentiful as in hotels in Turkey and Egypt, but it is quite sufficient and everything is also delicious. In general, you should overeat at home and when no one is looking, and not carry around several...

This does not apply to the hotel. But keep in mind - 85-90% of vacationers are Russians. Unfortunately, it’s customary for us to take a sunbed under an umbrella at 6-6-30, and then not appear there for 2-3 hours!!! Very annoying

Good location of the hotel by the sea If you have the opportunity, be sure to choose a sea view, you won’t regret it Buffet is normal for 4 stars

10 night stay

I liked the beach, the terrace in the room, the friendly staff. Menu and quality of food in a cafe on the beach.

Good afternoon We stayed at the hotel from 27.10 to 03.11.2019. We returned to this hotel after seven years.. Flight via Emirates, we need to write a separate review about the flight. The hotel has changed, both for the better and for the worse. The food was very bad, especially lunch. Breakfast is standard, like everywhere else, but the cook doesn't finish cooking the omelet. It’s clear that he’s in a hurry, but the omelette is completely raw. Previously, red fish, rolls, etc. were served for lunch. Now the range of dishes has decreased significantly. We were on vacation with our son, so we booked half board, knowing that there wasn’t much to dine nearby. I knew that the hotel had very good food. But the expectations were not met☹️ My son ate only French fries for lunch all 7 days, because... There was nothing else to choose from among the side dishes. And there are still very few vegetables!!! I also didn’t really like that the rooms became very empty after the renovation. It was more comfortable before. And there is practically no storage space for things, few drawers. All bedside tables and tables are without drawers. There is only one drawer in the closet, very small☹️. Well, now about the good stuff 🙂. We arrived very early. We were preparing for check-in no earlier than 14.00, but we checked in at 11.00, for which many thanks to Olga, the receptionist. We checked into a corner room, we had almost a sea view, we booked a city view. Special thanks to the staff who cleaned the room!!! It was always clean!!! Fresh towels every day! There was always water in the room. Thanks again! In this sense, the employees are trying! Very good internet! Fishes well both in the hotel and on the beach. Now about the beach. You need to take sunbeds, and early. If you don’t reserve your sunbeds before seven o’clock in the morning, you may end up without them! Well, overall the holiday was a success! At this time the weather in the UAE and the sea are SUPERB!!! We also got big discounts! Another plus of the hotel is a free transfer to the Dubai Mall. I hope that we will return to this hotel again, and I hope that the hotel administration will eliminate all the shortcomings!!! I wanted to add that 28.

This hotel is in the top of our hotels in the UAE. Excellent location, food (we only take breakfast), quality service (applies to all hotel services). Early arrival - clever Nigora (accommodation strictly according to the hotel rules, but very friendly!!!); on the way to the beach, the employee (unfortunately, I didn’t remember his name, we called him Mr. Smile) who handed out beach towels always pleased me with his smile; at breakfast, the restaurant team works harmoniously and carefully (tables are set quickly, the buffet is always full, everything is very tasty! yoghurts))); shuttles to shops are punctual (however, once I had to take a taxi to Sharjah City - don’t fight with the grandmothers who sweep away everything in their path, naturally Russians). It’s great that there is now a shuttle to the Dubai Mall (for those who haven’t seen the fountains). But today I will not do without criticism. It’s great that the hotel is being renovated, but.... It’s not very pleasant when a whole team comes into your room, where your things are, to wash the balcony, despite the fact that the room has already been cleaned (probably this can be done when the room is not occupied ). I really wanted to go to the sauna - it was closed for renovation. The beach cafe is also closed for renovations. But we recommend the cafe next to the neighboring pool hotel BEACH HOTEL SHARJAH. Tasty, not expensive. Yes, and a question for the Booking team: the declared price did not correspond to the amount withdrawn: initially it was written that the cost included all taxes (the screenshot was saved), in fact - all Emirati taxes were calculated on the declared price. I recommend the hotel!!! I wish Booking to be more careful in indicating hotel prices! Everyone - Have a good day and joyful mood!!!
