5 star hotels on first line in UAE

An exceptional experience by all measures at the Sharjah Corniche Hotel. The location is strategic and offers stunning views. The rooms are spacious, very clean, and designed for comfort. What truly sets the hotel apart is the high level of service and the professionalism of the staff, who always strive to ensure guests' comfort. The buffet experience was varied and delicious. I highly recommend it...

What a great choice of a hotel in Sharjah! Stayed 10 days with my husband at this nice hotel. Staff are all friendly and helpful, great service provided by reception, room service, and other staff around the hotel. Rooms were cleaned and serviced everyday, beddings and towels smell nice (p.s. The rooms have refrigeraters but you may not see in the photos on their website). The hotel has a great location...

Excellent Stay at Corniche Hotel Sharjah! I stayed at Corniche Hotel Sharjah, Al Majaz for 6 days and had a truly wonderful experience. The staff were very welcoming, and I want to give special appreciation to Ms. Dua at the reception. She was absolutely amazing — polite, kind, and extremely helpful throughout my stay. Her warm attitude made me feel at home. I was pleasantly surprised when they upgraded...

Hotel Location: Perfect! Right by the water with a beautiful view of the water dances, truly relaxing and scenic. Rooms: Comfortable but could be improved for a 5-star hotel. The furniture looks a bit old and would benefit from being updated. We also had to wait for some bathroom amenities such as toothbrushes and tissues, but once requested, they were promptly provided. Service: I initially planned...

Them location of Corniche hotel is very convenient. It is situated right next to the bus stop, just opposite the serene backwater view, and is surrounded by hospitals, markets, and a variety of multi-cuisine restaurants, making it very accessible and comfortable for travelers. Ngawang was exceptionally supportive throughout our stay. She consistently greeted us with a warm smile, prioritised our needs...

The room was clean, comfortable, and well-equipped. Staff were friendly, very accommodating Truly hospitable and professional (Hotel Supervisor Mr Anil) Very clean and cozy rooms. The bed was super comfortable and a huge king size, the linens were fresh. You can tell they take cleanliness seriously... Loved the amenities! My room facing the beautiful sea and has a very Instagramable view, the free...

The Shangri-La brand is truly trustworthy. Its Arabian castle-style architecture is impressive, and it's located right across from the beautiful Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque. The front desk service was excellent. My only regret is that I overslept and missed breakfast!

Absolutely perfect, a true resort experience. Everything was fantastic! The staff, especially the 'little black guy' (referring to a friendly, dark-skinned staff member), was incredibly welcoming and enthusiastic!

The hotel service was incredibly thoughtful, and the location is excellent, making it convenient to visit both the mosque and the amusement park. The room was spacious, and fresh fruit was delivered daily. The breakfast selection was extensive. During my stay, it was Chinese New Year, and the staff were so attentive, greeting every Chinese guest with "Happy New Year! May you be prosperous!" in Chinese...

Excellent service and a great location with a beautiful view.

Beautiful hotel. Very clean and nice vibes. Would recommend.

I can't recommend this Shangri-La enough! The hotel is directly opposite the Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque 🕌. The evening sunset, with the mosque visible across the water, creates an absolutely breathtaking view! While I've witnessed countless sunsets in many places, this one still managed to leave a truly profound impression on me! We were traveling as a family and had booked two rooms. One room had a...

Very nice hotel - large rooms with nice big bathtub. Traffic around the hotel is pretty awful.

Nice hotel, can't fault anything during our stay. In-between the W and Westin hotels, can use the facilities of both these hotels. Small waterpark which is also free to use.

all good but breakfast needed improvement. the water park was good

Our family had an unforgettable stay from beginning to end. From the moment we arrived, the check-in, concierge service, and hotel staff were all superb. Truly a 10/10! They were incredibly attentive, responsive, always smiling, and genuinely caring. A special shout-out to Alex, Shivani, Jamshir, Jampesh, and Amine from Latest Recip, who were incredibly kind to our baby Imran.

It was an enjoyable experience.

A great family-friendly hotel with swimming pools, an aqua park for kids, and a kids' club. The staff were very helpful. We had a pleasant stay.

It’s a family resort but it’s a beautiful place for singles too. Staff is extremely helpful and friendly. Great breakfast, great facilities overall

Great location, also great service, but the dinner buffet disappoint me, price not cheap, The seating was outdoors, the wind was strong and the weather was cold, the food was average and you had to wait because there weren't enough seats, im not sure I'll back again, but nice experience.

Great staycation with family and excellent service from Tonie and Mutthu, Breakfast was good as well they have several dining options, We had dinner at their italian restaurance Sapore which was very good.

Our stay as family with beyond amazing, we enjoyed to the max, Rose & Umang and Rajnish took care of us

I recently had the pleasure of staying at Le Méridien Al Aqah Beach Resort, and it was truly an exceptional experience from start to finish. The hotel perfectly combines luxury, relaxation, and top-notch hospitality in a stunning beachfront setting. From the moment we arrived, the staff made us feel warmly welcomed and attended to every detail with professionalism and genuine care. The rooms were spacious...

A truly (truly) wonderful and soulful hotel, feet on the sand ! And I’m not the easiest to please… Rooms view are the best in the UAE, with an infinite wide open view on the ocean for fabulous sunrise. An OG, authentic hotel offering along the years excellent service and amenities. One of my favorite hotel in the world ! I can’t praise enough the Staff, all graced with an excellent attitude and offering...

Great hotel, very beautiful views and design. Very satisfied.

A pilgrimage to Versace. Absolutely thrilled! Luxury and extravagance are the main themes. The pool area feels like a nightclub. This is the most affordable luxury hotel you'll find in Dubai, and it's not overrun by Chinese tourists.

The hotel is luxurious and comfortable, with warm and attentive staff. Even in the early hours of the morning, the service staff didn't slack off. We encountered some issues during our stay, but the duty manager was quick to coordinate and resolve them. Breakfast was just average; the food, facilities, and service staff all need improvement.

I visited for dinner has such a luxurious vibe, just like its brand. The design is stunning, with both indoor and outdoor seating, and they even have shisha for those who enjoy it. It’s definitely a spot that feels classy and comfortable at the same time

A luxurious and elegant hotel with an excellent location and refined rooms. I love visiting the hotel lobby frequently — it offers both indoor and outdoor seating. Their afternoon tea is delicious, but what I love the most are the tiramisu, Umm Ali, and cheese platter. The Americano is also exceptional. In short, it’s one of the lobbies I truly enjoy spending time in.

The hotel was beautiful, exceptionally clean, and well-maintained. The staff at the front desk and restaurants were friendly, accommodating, and always eager to provide whatever was needed. The food was delicious and clearly focused on quality. Despite hosting many events, the property was spacious and never felt crowded. The only downside was that the doorman often encouraged guests to use private...

So many peacocks on the hotel grounds, it's beautiful! There are also plenty of pools and lots of activities by the ocean. The breakfast is great too. Definitely worth a stay.

Had a fantastic family holiday Staff and service was great Buffet breakfast the quality was amazing Rooms clean, very spacious Plenty of water delivered to your room daily Kids loved the pools, the beach and water park Beautiful setting right on the beach with peacocks roaming round the grounds. Waterfalls. A thank you to Babu for all the buggy rides and Lakmal at the pool.bar. Would definitely...

Amazing Hotel. Staff are so nice and helpful. Highly recommended.

The service was excellent. When checking in, the front desk staff told us which restaurants we could choose from, where breakfast was served, the times for everything, and the pool opening hours. They also provided a map and the operating hours for all the facilities.

Very comfortable hotel for family vacation. On the territory there are many restaurants with different cuisines, entertainment for children, equestrian club, golf and water sports. I highly recommend it!

Wonderful hotel. I liked the room with a terrace and a sea view, I liked the food (we were in several restaurants of the complex), the child liked the children's playroom and Splash park. The sea, the beach, the pools are amazing. I liked it very much, we will definitely come back again

Everything at Saray Ajman Luxury Hotel is excellent. The staff were all kind, the restaurant is excellent. Highly recommended. The restaurant is excellent. Highly recommended. I will probably come back.

the location was ideal—close enough to Dubai for meetings but far enough to actually relax. The rooms are spacious with beautiful views, and the breakfast spread is one of the best I’ve had.

Fantastic hotel. We loved everything about it. Highly recommend.

Best hotel best biew best location

Very friendly staff, great facilities with great food will for sure return

It’s a nice spacious clean And well maintained property pool is clean and nice And beach is well maintained Rooms are spacious And we get complementary upgrade as married gold elite member so that was a real benefit

Great location, only 3km from Dubai Mall. The hotel has a sky pool, and the valet parking service at the front desk is super convenient. We were able to upgrade to a huge room with a fantastic view of the canal.

There's a construction project right next to the hotel, which made it a bit noisy at night.

The girl on the reception very friendly and very kind I recommend this hotel

I recently stayed at the Radisson Blu and had an exceptional experience from start to finish. The check-in process was smooth and efficient, with the front desk staff being very welcoming and professional. The room was spotless, spacious, and tastefully decorated, with all the modern amenities I needed — especially the comfortable bed and great city view. The breakfast buffet was excellent, offering...

Quite a bit of challenge on location....none of the taxi drivers seem to know how to reach here.

Great hotel and friendly staff. currently got construction next door with noise which stretches into the night

A luxurious hotel with huge rooms, excellent staff, and impressive scale!

It was a wonderfully beautiful stay, as always 😊 We've stayed at the Waldorf three times already and have booked again for 2026. Breakfast is delicious and plentiful. The staff are very friendly and constantly attentive. The main person on the beach also provides 200% excellent service, is always in a good mood, and is constantly on the go.

Excellent hotel with great facilities and professional staff

The hotel has good amenities. It should be better conserved. The buffet dinner food was not good.

I checked in at around 8pm and there was only one person working at the front desk and I had to wait. I asked if I wanted a king-size bed room or a double bed room and I was told I wanted a king-size bed room. But when I opened the door, I was told I was given a double bed room.

Lady Astor is smiling down at RAK, as she gazes in approval at this beautiful Andalusian themed Waldorf Astoria. Placed in one of the most prestigious districts in the world, Cape Alhambra. Ras Al Hamra where every think is nostalgically themed after the last Flowering of the Vassal Emirate of Granada

I really liked staying at C-Centers. The service here is very good. The staff there is very helpful. I will especially recommend Abdul Qadeer. He has helped a lot and has been a great guide. We also have a Shakeel driver. Thank you very much.

We had an amazing stay at C Central Resort The Palm! The accommodation was excellent, and the check-in process was smooth and easy. The staff were outstanding from reception lady & Ajit, valet Shakeel & Sheeba, concierge, housekeeping, to the restaurant team. Everyone was professional, friendly, and very attentive. A special mention to the Filipino captain at the restaurant who provided exceptional...

Fantastic hotel all the staff are very polite. The reception, tour tickets and concierge staff are fantastic. Victoria in the restaurant is always very kind. The driver, Mohammad Musawir provide us with an excellent service and some great conversations about old school Cricketers. Finally the coffee bar staff have been brilliant especially with our daughter discussing all things Lilo and Stitch....

We had a wonderful stay at this hotel in Dubai. Everything was excellent – the food, the drinks, the service, and the overall atmosphere. We had the all-inclusive package, but we didn’t get to use it very much because we were out exploring most of the time, and when we returned to the hotel, the services were already closed. Even so, our experience was very enjoyable. A special thank you to the bartenders...

I had an amazing experience at this resort. The hospitality and service were top-notch, and everyone greeted us with a warm smile. At check-in, Hakim gave us full details about the amenities and was kind enough to provide early check-in. Our room was beautifully decorated for our special day and had a perfect sea view with all the necessary amenities. The pool was temperature-controlled for the weather...

Good location. Palm. New hotel. Sunny side (for early April it was important). Pool view to the bay and the city. The manager Loki was very pleasant and helpful to us. Free shuttle to the malls. Very good food (breakfast and dinner), clean, big new rooms. In the morning you can meet the sunrise on the other side of the palm tree. From the minuses the proximity to water treatment plant. It is better...

The room was very spacious, the service was excellent, and the location was super convenient with plenty of food options nearby. It was a really great stay! Plus, you can easily get to Yas Island by taking the free shuttle bus from the Royal Rose, which is very handy.

Very central location. Very spacious. Very clean and tidy. Hotel staff are very friendly and helpful. Breakfast is very good.

This is an apartment hotel with very spacious suites, including a sofa and living room, perfect for business guests. It also comes with a small kitchen and a washing machine, and there's a bathtub too. My only complaint is the price!

Excellent hotel with good service and even better location, highly recommended

The facilities are a bit dated, but the service was quite good. Breakfast is okay if you avoid peak hours, but overall the quality is pretty average. Value for money is decent.

Only one set of dental kit and slippers provided, but we are checked in as a couple of 2 pax. Breakfast buffet has limited choice of food. Tap water is not clean and i bring my own shower filter, just one night the filter turn brown color. Staff do ask fir the room preference, i said quiet room, but she arrange me for level3 directly opposite the lifts…

Very nice buffet break fast! Variety of food for dinner buffet however I loved the breakfast more! Spa is very friendly and nice massage experience! Pool is very clean and quiet. As a single parent, there was a safe section for kids to play while I was swimming which is a blessing not worrying about them while relaxing

Breakfast , creek facing views and staff warm friendly hospitality was amazing

It was a good apartment. Lovely creek view. Staff were amazing.

We stayed at this hotel as a familly for 5 nights. We felt welcomed from the moment we arrived till we left. The hotel has excellent facilities and really good food. Would especially like to thank Ahmad from reception, sam from housekeeping and the staff at the bar. We booked the all inclusive package, which i would recommend if you intend to spend some time at the hotel

Top standard hotel. All staff well trained and keen to please. Great hotel in every respect.

We had a wonderful time at the Christmas Brunch — truly one of the best experiences ever! The food was delicious, the DJ kept the vibe lively, and the hospitality was outstanding. A big thank you to the entire team for their professionalism, especially Mr. Mina Alfy for his warm and attentive service. Highly recommended!

Super hotel! It has its own beach in the city center and a really cozy atmosphere. Definitely recommend it.

It's not my first time at this hotel, and it's a bit worse than it was 4 years ago. They have their own beach, but they start ushering people out at 5 PM, which wasn't the case before. The food is good, and the grounds are absolutely lush with greenery. Housekeeping isn't bad, but it could be a little better.

It's a pretty tired hotel that needs renovation. There are a lot of visitors from Russia and Kazakhstan- decide for yourself whether this is a plus or a minus. All for money and for the sake of money. For example, we came for the New Year holidays, so on New Year's Eve, the administration completely blocked the entrance to the beach of the hotel from where the Burj Khalifa was visible and demanded...

Pros: Beautiful, green grounds. First line with its own beach, sun loungers and towels included. Delicious breakfasts. Lots of restaurants near the hotel, and a large grocery store. A Russian-speaking girl named Maria at the reception. Overall, the staff was good. They congratulated me on my anniversary. Very nice. They allowed a one-hour late checkout, for which I'm very grateful! Cons: The rooms...

This is my several trip to dubai and stay in this hotel. Everything is excellent and room is quiet and clean and walking way is very beautiful.

This is my several trip to dubai and stay in this hotel. Everything is excellent and room is quiet and clean and walking way is very beautiful.

Fell short of my expectations of Rosewood hospitality

Amazing location, front desk where very helpful and friendly

Stayed here for 2 nights and I must say everything was exceptional. We arrived and Naim at reception was extremely welcoming, the room we had booked wasn’t quite ready so rather than us waiting he immediately upgraded us to the top floor. I’ve been in hotels before where we sit and wait for the rooms, he was so pleasant. The staff here are amazing, caring and very knowledgable. The room overlooking...

It was a lovely staycation indeed. From the moment I checked in I was welcomed by Mr. Philipp and had a smooth process he explained each and everything very clearly. I had breakfast at the Glo restaurant and was catered by Mr. Abbos he was lively and very professional we even had an actual conversation. Restaurant ambience was on point. Check-out time I was assisted by one of my kabayan Ms. Magz, which...

Amazing experience and birthday celebrations at the Rosewood in Abu Dhabi. My children booked the hotel as a surprise for me for my birthday and I was absolutely blown away by the hotel. Thanks to Gazella from Room reservations and all the lovely staff who took care of us at the Manor club ,a special mention to Magdalene for making it so special. The Deluxe suite was amazing and everything was super...

We had the most wonderful stay at Rosewood Abu Dhabi to celebrate my mum’s birthday, and it was truly exceptional from start to finish. From the moment of booking, Gazalla was incredibly kind, thoughtful, and went above and beyond to make our experience special. The rooms were stunning, my mum absolutely loved them, and every detail felt carefully curated and perfectly maintained. The attention to...

The room is spacious with great attention to detail, giving it a grand hotel feel. The breakfast is fantastic; both seniors and children absolutely loved it here.

I stayed here for the Open Masters Games at ADNEC, which was just next to the hotel. Therefore, location was perfect for me. 15 mins to the famous Mosque, 30 mins to the cultural district. Not too bad as very easy to get a car from Uber. Room is spacious, clean, and decent. Nice buffet breakfast - I love that they have Greek Yoghurt, unlike other hotels which only serve limited yoghurt and only with...

The service was excellent, and the hotel breakfast was really good, with the option to order additional snacks. The front desk staff were very patient, and the cleaning service was available 24/7. Plus, the room had a great view.

Lae truly embodies the spirit of exceptional hospitality. Her professionalism, grace, and genuine attentiveness made my experience at Andaz Abu Dhabi truly outstanding. She has a remarkable ability to make guests feel valued and effortlessly comfortable, handling every detail with poise and warmth. Lae is a true asset to the hotel, and her dedication reflects the highest standards of service excellence

Great hotel , all good . Doorman , vaket parking , receptionist, housekeeping , room quality , breakfast , bar , all good.

Amazing hotel with stunning rooftop pool and delicious bar

Fantastic experience with a totally relaxing experience.

Great hotel in Dubai with a beautiful open sea view and no islands blocking the horizon. The kids’ room is excellent, the breakfast is very good, and Demon Duck restaurant is simply amazing — Michelin-recognized from 2022 to 2025. The whole Banyan Tree aesthetic is beautifully maintained, with incense, oils, and authentic details creating a very special atmosphere.

Excellent service and facilities. Super convenient location for getting around.

A great option to stay with family. Staff are nice and helpful, food is amazing. Have a nice beach and swimming pools to relax at.

The room was great, and the service was warm and welcoming. Every staff member was polite and professional. However, the breakfast could use some improvement in terms of taste and variety.

The hotel and service are sensational; we had a wonderful wedding anniversary here and are looking forward to our next stay!

Nice attentive staff, the location is ok, however very isolated. The food in the copper lobster restaurant was very good, however the buffet food and breakfast was pretty dreadful and would not recommend, there’s also no pork kitchen. Designed to be an all inclusive hotel.

Amazing! 10/10 in all aspects. A truly beautiful resort with lots to see and do.

Fairmont by the name only! I had been to quite a few Fairmont hotels and by far its a strangest one so far! Pros: - amazing staff - great location - great and convenient room service Cons: - Rooms are hit and miss! First room was humid, smelling really strange and outdated, but was replaced by better option - Food is a disaster! Buffet has very limited options, food is not tasty. Eating in the...

Service was good but too slow. Room was sometimes smelly and humidity was making the floor wet and slippery since AC was not working so well

Great saty with my family, hotel has everything you expect. F&B was awesome!

This is a great hotel for Sharjah. The rooms are very spacious, and the location is excellent, being very close to Al Noor Island and the Central Souk. It has a rooftop pool and a large gym. Highly recommended, excellent value for money.

All good the room clean and big but down side is the location of the hotel and the entrance of the hotel

Hotel is in great location. Suite was clean and had kitchen. They didn’t tell us that the TV facing the bed was not working (we were told this issue exists in all rooms and will be fixed in coming days) wish they had been transparent about this prior to check in. Sauna had to ask the staff to turn it on. Lockers in the pool / spa area did not work, staff asked me to just leave my things in the locker...

Highly recommended good service great staff 👌🏾

The hotel is showing its age, and it definitely needs some renovations. There were ongoing works on the floor where we stayed, which made the stay less comfortable. Service was not great either — staff seemed unaware of trip.com as a booking site, which caused some inconvenience during check-in. Overall, not the best experience, and I wouldn’t choose this hotel again unless improvements are made.

Spacious, clean room and good breakfast.

Good location and friendly service. Guest discounts on F&B Breakfast buffet reasonably priced. Room lighting needs to be brighter. Note: the nearby Arabic Nightclub (photo#6) was still blasting loud music at 2:30 a.m. ! This is a serious offense which requires reporting to the authorities. Hotel guests will suffer from sleep deprivation because of this noisy night club. Serious action is required...

Great facility and professional service.

Hotel is good and located just on the beach

We had a short but very pleasant vacation. We were in Hayatt Centric Jumeirah Dubai for first time, very pleased with the service and cleanliness. There was a small problem with paying the tourist tax, but in the end everything was resolved. The staff was very nice, and I`d like to express my special gratitude to the waitress Ei Ei for her friendliness, care, attentiveness. If all waiters served like...

We loved our stay so much. The breakfast was excellent. The staff are so friendly and kind. We felt the welcoming atmosphere. We want to thank Srijana for wonderful service at the restaurant and organising a surprise cake for our anniversary! I also want to thank Amina , Mary, Naomi, Joyce and Issi for being great staff. So friendly, helpful and gave great insights to hangout in dubai.

An Unforgettable Stay😍😍😍 I recently had the pleasure of staying at this incredible hotel, and it exceeded all my expectations. From the breathtaking views to the prime location, everything was perfect. The rooms are not only spacious but also beautifully designed with a modern touch. The prices are reasonable, making it an excellent choice for any traveler. I'm absolutely in love with this charming...

Somehow the staff were not very happy to provide service to us

The hotel, located on Marjan Island, feels a bit dated compared to other properties in the area. A significant drawback is that it currently lacks its own private beach due to ongoing construction in front of the property. If you want to swim in the sea, you'll have to take a buggy to another location, which is the biggest disappointment about this hotel.

Our stay at the Pullman Marjan Island was fantastic, and I wanted to specifically highlight the exceptional service we received from the Reception Manager, Saeed. Saeed is everything you want at a hotel front desk: genuinely friendly, welcoming, and incredibly efficient. He made our check-in process seamless—it was quick, easy, and we were in our room in no time at all. After a long journey, having...

We are currently staying at the Pullman El Kaima, and the experience has been truly excellent. The staff is incredibly welcoming—always smiling, helpful, and very professional. Everything is well organized, the services are impeccable, and we’re really enjoying our stay. We also had the chance to chat with a young lady named Shakira, who was especially friendly. Very kind, attentive, and easy to talk...

The shisha experience at the Pullman Hotel was genuinely outstanding. The atmosphere is calm and refined, the service is quick and attentive, and everything feels professionally handled without any unnecessary fuss. What truly elevates the whole experience is the team—Master Osama, Master Abdo, and Yahya. They know how to read the guest from the first moment, and they’re exceptional at setting the...

I recently stayed at Pullman Resort Al Marjan Island and had a wonderful experience. The hotel has a beautiful atmosphere, and the location is perfect for relaxing. My room was clean, comfortable, and well maintained throughout my stay. The staff were very friendly and professional, especially Chaw Su, who works as a waitress. She was extremely polite, helpful, and provided excellent service during...
