Cheap Hotels in Sharjah

"The hotel is about a 30-minute drive from Dubai Airport, but it's actually in the Emirate of Sharjah, about 10 kilometers from the airport. While not far, traffic can be heavy in the mornings and evenings. It seems to have been a Ramada hotel previously. The rooms are spacious, clean, and comfortable, but the decor is a bit dated as the hotel has been around for some years. Breakfast is quite varied. Overall, if booked in advance, it offers good value for money."

"Our stay at DoubleTree by Hilton Sharjah Waterfront Hotel & Residences was unfortunately very short, and we truly regret not having more time to experience the property and its facilities. However, even during our brief stay, the hotel left a very positive impression. We sincerely appreciated the unexpected upgrade to an apartment with an amazing view facing the city center - it was a wonderful surprise and made the stay feel extra special. The apartment was very spacious, clean, and well-maintained. It had everything needed for a comfortable stay, and the layout was perfect for relaxing and enjoying the view. Although our visit was short, the hospitality and comfort we experienced make us look forward to returning in the future for a longer stay."

"Customer service standard was excellent. Receptionist who checked me in was very courteous, helpful and professional. Breakfast buffet was great. Staff at breakfast area was courteous and helpful. Room cleanliness was excellent."

"Great hotel, can definitely recommend. Furniture is not new, but working properly, bed very comfortable. Teapot & fridge in the room (though fridge is barely working). Shampoo & lotion provided. Good wifi. Breakfast is various & tasty. Hotel staff ready to help. Small pool, sauna & gym (for ladies available until midday). Very close to marvelous beach, tasty cafés around. Nesto supermarket is also not far away. No slippers in the room, but staff provided upon request without problems. Great option if your point of interest in Sharjah is beach, beach, beach!"

"My stay at Nest Hotel was excellent in every way. The hotel is clean and quiet, and the rooms are comfortable and well-equipped. The location is perfect, close to all amenities, which made getting around easy. The staff were friendly, helpful, and attentive to guests' comfort, and the check-in and check-out process was quick and smooth. I'd like to thank all the staff for their warm welcome and top-notch service. I will definitely stay here again and recommend it to anyone looking for comfort and quality."

"I stayed here for a trade show, and it was conveniently located close to the exhibition center. There's also a commercial street nearby, making dining very easy. The hotel breakfast was plentiful, and the hygiene was excellent. It was a pleasant stay."

"Overall, it's a decent option for a short stay. Breakfast is provided and quite substantial, though the coffee isn't great. Initially, we were given a room that smelled strongly of smoke, but they immediately moved us to a different room upon request, which didn't have that issue. The rooms could use a bit more lighting. Also, they provided a European plug adapter when asked, as the rooms have different types of outlets."

"Good hotel, the location is close to the sea, about 10 mins by foot to the beach. If you need to rent an umbrella and a sun lounger, then you need to go further, about 20-25 mins by foot from the hotel.Also free shuttle buses are provided. There are all needed things in the room: safe, hairdryer, kettle.Good breakfast! The staff is very friendly! Would recommend"

"Super nice and cleaned a good service and location is okay"

"We stayed for 2 weeks in late January 2026 and had a very good time at Marbella Resort. I was cautious when making a booking due to controversial reviews on various sites. Some customers seemed to be concerned with such issues as cleanliness, insects or even geckos in rooms, staff attitude and lack of soundproof between rooms. Fortunately, we had no issues of that kind at all. Upon our late arrival we got Master Suite 3701 on the ground floor of 2 floor villa. Summary of things we liked: - An opportunity to occupy part of a villa with your own patio close to nice waterfront / promenade for a very reasonable price (by UAE standards of course) is unbeatable - Master Suite (living room with sofa, kitchen area, bedroom) was of a decent size for 2 adults with a kid - Hotel has a pool which seems to be ok though we preferred to use the pool in Holiday International (just 2-3 min from our villa) which was warm in January and had kid’s section with just 58 sm in depth - Hotel has a small playground for kids and there is another one in Holiday International - There are 2 amusement parks within 20 min walking distance from the hotel (Al Montazah and AlMajaz) which is perfect when you have a small kid - No noise from neighbors, according to reception we had soundproof doors between rooms which seems to be true. Not sure if all villas have these - Reception staff was always polite and helpful - Beds were comfortable - Bed linen and towels were fresh enough - Cleaning was ok most of the time - No insects (even mosquitoes) or geckos - Breakfast in Holiday International was ok though quite crowded and not much daily changes - Washing machine in room, large fringe, microwave, 2 TVs (which we never used) - Four bottles of drinking water provided every day - Nice Spinneys supermarket is just 5 min by feet - WiFi was better than expected Summary of shortcomings: - 2 floor villas are attached to hotel parking so we had cars parking in front of our kitchen window which we preferred to keep open for ventilation instead of aircon (January is not a hot month in UAE). Fair to say we had no issues neither with other guests parking nor with a street noise. You need to mind though that laud praying starts in nearby mosques around 5.30 am - I was puzzled by the fact that bedroom had another door instead of a window which can be opened to get some fresh air. Of course UAE is a low crime area but still you won’t leave the door open especially at night. Having a small window with mosquito net in bedroom would be great - Aircon was rather noisy. We rarely had to switch it on though of course you would have no choice in hotter months - Threshold separating shower from the rest of the bathroom is not sufficient and most bathroom gets wet when you take a shower. Typical problem in many hotels which can be solved literally for $1-2 - Couple of times cleaning staff have ignored our room for the morning cleaning. Fair to say when I brought this issue to reception they came in 5 min to do the job - They have induction stove in room but no pot or pan to cook so we had to use microwave all the time - Although hotel is well placed right on a beautiful promenade there is no direct access to it from hotel grounds and you need to walk 5-7 min to get to waterfront - Local beach is about 10-15 min drive, but my kid was happy with the pool in Holiday International so we never tried shuttle service provided by the hotel. Winter sea in UAE is chilly anyway - Generally Sharjah is a less fancy and much more conservative compared to Dubai while hassle free visiting Dubai is by taxi (public transport links are quite weak) which is rather costly (though local taxis seem to be cheaper compared to Dubai). So, Sharjah is ok for family vacations but not for entertainment or shopping."
