Nest Hotel

This transit hotel is incredibly busy, with guests checking in at all hours. It's conveniently located close to Sharjah Airport, about a 15-minute drive away. The bedding was excellent, comparable to a 4-star hotel, and the property itself is quite large. I initially thought it would be small, but it actually has two low-rise buildings with a garden and pool in between. The hotel also feels very new. The staff provided excellent service and were very helpful, assisting with luggage to the rooms. It truly felt like 4-star service. On the downside: the soundproofing is virtually non-existent. You can hear conversations from the next room. I had the misfortune of having neighbors singing and chatting loudly until 3 AM, which was unbearable. There are plenty of dining options nearby, and a supermarket just across the street. There's some construction happening nearby, so be mindful when choosing your room's orientation; typically, king rooms are a good choice. My booking stated a 2 PM checkout, but I was told it was 12 PM. After some negotiation, they extended it to past 1 PM, which was a bit confusing.

Best hotel

A new, fresh, and modern hotel, not far from the airport. We stayed as a family for one night between flights. There's a 24-hour front desk. It's clean, comfortable, quiet, and soundproofed. No mustiness, mold, or dampness in the rooms – everything is excellent. As for the cons – there's no curtain or proper, complete door in the shower cabin, so water splashes all over the floor. However, they provide plenty of towels, so cleaning it up isn't an issue. They allowed us a late check-out at 2 PM. Overall, we really liked the hotel; there are many cafes nearby, and we will definitely come back. We previously stayed at Centro Sharjah, and this new hotel is much better. It's also half the price, and everything is clean and new. It might be a 5-minute longer drive from the airport, but that's not a big deal. Breakfasts are standard. I wouldn't say they are incredibly delicious or varied, but they are perfectly fine. I recommend this hotel!
