Positive:
1. Location: quiet location, right on the shore of the bay. No discos or noisy parties.;
2. A good choice of food for vegetarians;
3. Friendly, helpful, empathetic staff;
4. Relatively inexpensive. We took half board;
5. Heated swimming pool. In December, that's the thing
6. The most important plus for me is the absence of alcohol in any form!
7. Large territory. Free, clean, sandy beach
Minuses:
1. There was very little water pressure in our room, especially hot water;
2. There are cold tiles on the floor in our room
3. For a family of 4 people, they were given 2 beds. The third one is for a fee
4. The feeling that the room smells of mold
However, the location, food, staff, beach, pool cover all the disadvantages, so I give 5 points.

The first trip to the Emirates.
We chose a quiet, peaceful, cozy Sharjah
The hotel is amazing. Clean and tidy. The staff is polite. Room cleaning is daily. The hotel is also clean and tidy.
I liked the food.
The beach is clean. White sand, warm sea.
Unfortunately, the water in the bay was not calm. It was not possible to swim "from the bottom of my heart".
There is a swimming pool for adults and children.
We walked around the city. Calmly, without fuss. There is an aquarium next to the hotel and a museum. 25 dirhams per person. I definitely advise you to go! I went with my Grandmother and my mother-in-law - we issued free tickets, age 60+.. It was very pleasant to have respect for the older generation and attentiveness.
There is a Nesto Hypermarket next to the mosque, the shopping was a success.
What can I say, Sharjah is in my heart?

We had a wonderful week of vacation. I liked the hotel - friendly staff, spacious rooms (we rested in the chalet), edible food (simple, without frills, but there was always a choice, and you could always choose something for yourself). The only disadvantage, rather a wish, is to add umbrellas to the sun beds on the beach, they are sorely lacking. But in general, everything is great, I'm ready to come again.

I really enjoyed my stay at the hotel, we lived in a chalet, I left the chalet and immediately the sea, the water is clear and clean! White fine sand! Super! Wide coastline! The staff is friendly, if any problems arise, they are quickly fixed! They speak Russian. Swimming pool with sea view and sunset with warm water! The restaurant has a buffet, everything is delicious!

We stayed at the hotel from 02.02.25 to 08.02.25. The hotel is basically not bad. What I liked: the beach is clean, the sand, the restaurant, you can always find something to eat (but of course not like in Turkey, the choice of dishes is smaller, but there was enough),they are cleaned every day, towels are changed every day, water, coffee, tea, replenished every day. Problems are solved quickly, courteous staff. I didn't like the smell in the hotel, the old furniture at the reception and in the rooms. There's something like fuel oil in the sand on the beach, you can't wash your flip-flops. They don't speak much Russian. And the location of the hotel, there is only one supermarket nearby and a McDonald's a little further away, there is nowhere to walk. But I enjoyed the rest anyway, there are very wonderful people there.

A gorgeous beach, a great location, quiet and cozy, there were few people, we spent time quietly, without any complaints. Friendly and courteous staff. A large room, not renovated, but cozy and cool, we really liked it. The food is 4.9, there was not enough variety, but the food is delicious, we were always full. Everything is fine, a solid "5".

We had a rest in early December 2024. Now in order: the sea is clean, white sand, the sun beds on the beach are excellent, towels are given out, and this is where the advantages end. The hotel is quite old, water is given out 1.5 liters per day for two. We had full board. The choice of food is very meager, with only watermelon and canned peaches and sometimes pineapples. Meat and fish are delicious, tomatoes are green. Of the drinks, only black tea and instant coffee and milk to it. Of course, you won't stay hungry, and you won't get fat. There is no animation. Dinner is served until 22:00, in hotels the lights are turned off at the reception at 20:00 there is nothing to do but sleep.

nice hotel. we were in a room on the ground floor, spacious, we liked it. the main disadvantage is the food. It was monotonous every time, I didn't eat much (but still, it's possible to eat food, in principle, we ate enough. Russian russians are very numerous, it seems to me that there were only a couple of non-Russians there, the rest are Russians. the staff barely speaks Russian, but they more or less understand what you want.

We were in the UAE for the first time, in December, in principle, the hotel is not bad, the rooms in the main building have been renovated. We lived in a chalet on the second floor in the last room (948) with a magnificent view of the sea, and when leaving the room there was a view of a small vegetable garden with cabbage and eggplant. The rooms in our block are arranged so that there are no neighbors on either side. One of the disadvantages of the room: there is a not very pleasant smell of moss and a poorly moving mosquito net. There are several Russian channels on the TV, but I remember only TNT. The cleaning is daily, it seemed to me that the towels were changed daily. The receptionists speak understandable Russian, they can tell you where the cafes and shops are, and you can change the currency. I didn't like the lifeguards on the beach, they were lazy, instead of fulfilling their duties of watching the swimmers, they hung out a red flag and calmly sat in the shade all day. We went swimming in the sea at the beach strip of a nearby hotel. The food is meager, almost the same every day. The only fresh fruit is watermelon. We had breakfasts and dinners. Dinner could be replaced with lunch. There are salads, vegetables, soup, meat and desserts for lunch and dinner. There is always oatmeal porridge and an omelet for breakfast./scrambled eggs, draniki and vegetables, two types of juice from the boxes, tea and coffee. At lunch and dinner, the only drinks are tea and coffee. We went to the nearest shops, but it's expensive there. I recommend a supermarket: go right from the hotel to the ring, then turn towards Kiefsi and McDonald's, and straight to the mosque, and across the highway there will be a supermarket on the ground floor for groceries, on the second for manufactured goods. You can pay in dollars there. If we go to Sharjah again, we may stay at this hotel.

Great hotel. A solid four! The beach is great, the pool is huge, there are a lot of sun beds. Everything is in the room, and slippers and bathrobes will be provided upon request. They clean up conscientiously. You won't stay hungry in the restaurant. The breakfasts and dinners that we took were decent! I definitely recommend it! We will definitely come back here

Briefly for the end of January 2025.
Positive:
- a big beautiful beach.
- nice big pool.
- the food is well cooked.
That's it.
Minuses:
- corruption during check-in - they first start offering shabby rooms in bungalows, then they take them to renovated hotel rooms, hinting at a bribe;
- the food is good, but it is objectively low compared to others
- the location of the hotel is such that there is nothing interesting within walking distance except an aquarium and a public beach.
- there is a sauna, but in order to visit it you need to ask the staff, and everything is old-fashioned - women's and men's visiting hours are different
- the gym that supposedly exists is poor
- there is no entertainment for children except the beach and the pool, the playground is one name.
- in general, the hotel is sloppy, outdated, including mentally, tired, shabby and in need of renovation.

We had a rest at the end of December, Checked in before 14.00, a room with a view of the city was bought, but we decided to pay extra on the spot with a view of the sea, a bungalow in their language, on the second floor, the room was good, cleaning was every day. The food was delicious and varied, with only fruits and canned peaches. Two people at the reception know Russian. In general, there were no problems, the TV was not working, it was changed. The guide from Anex tour does not decide anything, only sells vouchers, and there are no prices in the public domain. I do not advise buying from him, it is much more expensive, but in fact the service is the same for everyone. I recommend Tatiana to stay at the Lavender Hotel across the street.

So, I am writing this review a few days after arriving home so that the emotions subside and everything is literally and real. I'll start from the beginning... Sharjah itself is a 20-minute drive from the airport in Dubai, but with traffic jams if, then an hour and a half. I will note right away that the hotel has 4 stars ) now I will analyze all their stars thoroughly. Upon entering the reception, you are immediately greeted by a disgruntled hotel employee! They are all unhappy there , no one speaks Russian at all ! Our passports were silently taken away from us without telling me anything about it. I didn't find any passports when I entered the room. After an argument at the reception, they gave me my passport, and the rest stayed. That is, you are automatically deprived of the opportunity to change money elsewhere, go to Dubai and buy alcohol, etc. Further... When we entered the room, it was trash! Terrible stench, dirt, audibility of 100% of the neighbors. at my request to relocate us for an additional fee, since it is impossible to live there and I have a small son, I was told that it was impossible! Then the show began ((( the bathrobe and slippers appeared only after my remark and several calls. The room was cleaned just for show. there is dirt on the floor, the shower (you can call it that) has been dirty all week. The room itself had a strong smell of old age... I still wash all the things from Grandma's smell. Just a minute, this is not my first time in the Emirates. I've been to a lot of places and I know what kind of service there is and I understand what I want from Hotel 4. The breakfasts were simply deplorable . We had no choice at all . There is no bread at all. Coffee was poured from a common pot (not a single dish was signed at the distribution, everything was spilled everywhere, dirty. Umbrellas are a separate story - there just weren't enough of them for everyone. When I was there, people shared an umbrella, which is just unperturbed for a 4 star hotel!! The hotel is very old, dirty, has a terrible smell! The toilets are insanely old in the building itself, the towels are torn. It's not even 3 stars! It's just a nightmare ((( I don't recommend this hole to anyone! This is a scoop for grandparents. and it is a pity if your first visit to the Emirates starts with this hotel

Three only from the fact that they are not allowed to go to sea for the fourth day, reinsurers.The excitement is a little bit, and the depth is children's on the beach, 50 meters you need to go into the sea so that it reaches your shoulders.You have to go to the left to swim in the sea, there is a wild zone between the hotel beach and the city beach, you can swim there. And so yes, food- you will not be hungry. The ferry is 500 meters away, it takes you to Dubai (ferry every 2 hours). You can easily get from the pier by metro to the center to Bursh Khalifa. It is better to take a metro ticket to the gold class, they do not have drivers on trains and the windshield of the first car (this is the gold class) has crazy views all the way to Bursh Khalifa, you will not see it from the car (from the pier by metro to Bursh Khalifa-this is with one transfer, sit down- two stations and a transfer, there coming to the surface., highways below and above, look at these traffic jams) Here is a photo of the excitement with which they are not allowed into the sea.

The beach is beautiful, but a comfortable stay on it has not been thought out. After all, you can add sun beds and mushrooms, tourists come from another beach, unequipped, and in the evening they put their towels (and they differ from hotel towels) and the next day they sunbathe on these sun beds, and the hotel guests have no place. Or another example: it comes to the point of absurdity; at 05:00 in the morning, in the dark, tourists go to occupy sun beds on their belts, otherwise they will be disassembled, since they are not designed for every vacationer. Please get better! Everything is in your hands, make your vacation wonderful!

We had a rest, if you can call it that, what happened in this hotel at the beginning of October 2024. Rooms are traded upon check-in. They offer horror, but for an additional fee more or less. We were supposed to have a room with a balcony, but we were given a cubicle without a balcony. For an additional fee, we checked into a Deluxe room with a sea view. If there are small waves at sea, a red flag is hung out and no one is allowed into the sea. The heat is under 40 degrees, everyone is sitting on the shore. Whereas after 6 p.m., with the same waves, and a red flag hung out, people were launched into the sea for an hour. It's like a pioneer camp. For a complete understanding, the sea was not stormy, just small waves. You can't call it bullying. After a lot of complaints about this outrage, after sitting on the shore for three days, the flag was removed, and we swam with even bigger waves. The UAE is basically focused on Britain, so Russians are not very revered here. No, they won't be rude to you, but don't expect smiles either. Here's a little shit, as with the sea and the rooms it's very possible. The food in this hotel is fine. There is always fish, meat and chicken, choose what your heart desires. We will not come here personally anymore. Some came for 7 days, spent three on the beach. I have never seen such idiocy in any country.

The Carlton Sharjah Hotel. Your own beach. Heated swimming pool.Good location. Near the Aquarium and the Maritime Museum, there is also a ferry to Dubai. The hotel has a souvenir shop, candy and clothing stores. The rooms are clean. The food is monotonous for 3+. There are not enough sun beds and umbrellas on the beach for everyone, many are in terrible condition - broken. The top floor is being renovated.

We have been to Carlton beach, passed by, wandering along the sand in the morning on the sea foam, towards the sun's rays and rather back to our hotel Ossidental. Definitely, the beach loses in comparison with the neighbor's, and not only with simple plastic sun beds, God help them, but with some general unkemptness, sloppiness. Evening trash ( the tide was out )
is not cleaned, the sand is not smoothed.
That's the case, the nearby Ossidental Hotel.
Learn, Carlton!

A great hotel for 4 stars. We rested in it 3 times, I do not exclude that we will come again!The hotel has a main building and there are chalets on both sides of it. We always take chalet 884 or 880. We like it!😊 We choose only breakfast meals. This hotel is attractive to us for its beach, as well as a heated swimming pool!

We had a rest from January 14th to January 21st. I liked everything very much. A clean, cozy beach with golden sand. We did not expect it to be so warm, +26, +28 in the afternoon. The water temperature is slightly lower, but quite comfortable. It was a little windy, so there were always waves on the water. The hotel staff made sure that no one went into the depths. The room is normal (we lived in a chalet on the ground floor), but there is nowhere to dry the laundry. It is better to have a rope with you and equip a dryer with improvised tools. There was one adapter for England-Europe sockets in the room. It's great that we had two of our own, otherwise charging gadgets would be problematic. The food is varied, everything is delicious, there was enough of everything.

I hope my review will help someone in choosing.
The hotel positions itself as a 4*, but it is a solid 3 in my opinion.
The biggest and main plus for me personally is the distance from the airport to the hotel (about-20min).
-THE BEACH is SUPER. 🔥 (I would come back here just for the beach)
-THE WATER IN THE SEA is clean/ transparent
-THE ENTRANCE TO THE SEA is just for those with children!!!!!
- The pool is warm.
- The hotel is not big.
- The territory is small .
- Quiet and calm.
- The food is monotonous, BUT FRESH!
- The staff is friendly.
- There is no animation.
There is no place to walk outside the hotel.
There are a couple of grocery stores. The prices are reasonable.
About the numbers ... it is better to ask in the main building, not in the chalet.
There is a huge disadvantage for fans of lawn tennis.
The rackets are given out strictly at a certain time. (IN THE GREATEST HEAT). It's not an option to play in the evening.

We settled in July, in the sun +38 in the evening +28, for me the most! A chic hotel, a solid four. They are cleaned every day, everything is always clean. The beach is under your feet. Near the hotel, you can go to the public beach and play volleyball with the locals, they are all kind and you don't need to be afraid of them. Since in this country, there are no such concepts of theft, humiliation and so on, in short, very strict laws. And I think it's right. You can go to the Aquarium, it's just a buzz of 15 dirhams, it's a penny, and there are a lot of impressions. Shops are nearby, everything you want can be walked. But there is a nuance, the caricature is a staff of believers and you will not find booze nearby, and there is no it in hotels.
We Russians leave the hotel, get into a taxi and show the driver a point on the map to the nearest liquor store, buy a backpack full of what you want and return to the hotel. Try not to advertise on the beach that you are with Arkashka. If the beer is in a black bag, if the whiskey is in the eggplant from Lipton tea, well, they themselves understood in short.
I've seen them having a rest with children, but I think there is little entertainment for children. We went without children ourselves. This is an ideal hotel, for two of us we had a view of the sea, it's a thrill. Food is like food, everything is always delicious. We took tours to Dubai and Abu Dhabi - these are two different tours, lunch is included there, I definitely recommend taking it, there will be a lot of photos in the phone and videos. Palm Jumeirah, Eye of Dubai, Burj Khalifa, White Mosque and much more is a buzz. Yes, it's certainly not cheap, $ 180 per person, but it's worth it. I advise everyone who wants a beach holiday, everything is clear.
And yes, I forgot on the beach, there are scooters and cheesecakes on which you can repent for $ 20, a tuxedo is so-so, but I came across cuttlefish, small rays, a jellyfish accidentally swam, small crabs, stars can be seen all about the morning - the water is gorgeous transparent. We had a great rest.

We were with a friend from 04.08 to 10.08.2023
On the first coast, a good approach to the sea. Clean beach. But there are not enough sunbeds with umbrellas for everyone. Our domestic people take places under umbrellas at five in the morning, and go to the beach at 11-13 o'clock. The administration does not regulate this problem in any way.
The rooms are clean, daily cleaning — with wet floor cleaning.Linen and towels are clean , changed daily .
This is where the advantages end.
The hotel does not meet the stated 4 stars due to the food. This is generally a separate topic - nutrition!!!! To say that the food was disgusting is to say nothing .....
I attach a photo of the bread layout! And this is the entire range offered! As many as two)!The administration urgently needs to change the cook.

The hotel does not pull in 4 stars, and even 3 stars is a stretch. Only one plus is the sea, but this is not the merit of the hotel. Everything is shabby, beach towels are torn, the food is very poor, a meager assortment, even if you come to the opening everything is cold, coffee from the tank, only watermelon from fruits and that is not sweet, the food is not tasty! There is a struggle for umbrellas on the beach, in order to take an umbrella you need to get up at half past six and take it. The beach is opened at seven o'clock in the evening, it is closed, only TNT from Russian channels. Everything in the rooms is stripped. I am not a moody tourist, I have something to compare with and this is the first time that I would like to go home as soon as possible. I DO NOT RECOMMEND IT!!!

Everything is fine, except for food: daily breakfasts and dinners are monotonous, a choice of three or four dishes (rice, pasta, potatoes, vegetables for breakfast and plus fish and /or meat for dinner. Coffee, tea, two kinds of juice in the morning. Butter, honey, buns, bread for toast. This is all 12 days of stay. The beach is great, there are two pools, sun beds, towels, umbrellas. Drinking water is given to the number one 1.5-liter bottle per day, I had to buy it. Excursions are only sightseeing tours to Dubai, according to the participants, it is not worth the money that they take.
