We spent a week at Hampton by Hilton Marjan Island with our family and couldn't have been more satisfied. From the moment we arrived, the reception staff were always friendly and willing to help — even arranging a late checkout was no problem. We had two rooms connected into one family suite, which suited us perfectly. The air conditioning worked flawlessly and the rooms were consistently clean. Daily housekeeping was maybe even a bit too much — by the end of our stay we noticed some towels missing, so we think a towel change every other day would be more than enough. Our room was facing the pool, which meant we didn’t hear any noise from nearby construction — a big plus. The food was excellent! Dinner always offered a wide variety, and outside peak hours there were no queues at all. The only small inconvenience was waiting for cutlery — we would’ve gladly picked it up ourselves like we did with plates. That said, the restaurant staff were always smiling, helpful, and kind. One of the biggest highlights for us: no need to reserve sunbeds early in the morning! No matter when we came down to the beach or pool, we always found good spots. Because everyone knew there were enough sunbeds for all, no one felt the need to "claim" them in advance — such a refreshing change! If we were to mention one thing that could be improved, it would be the evening entertainment, which was a bit underwhelming. A livelier or more varied program in the evenings would make the overall experience even better, especially for families staying a full week. All in all, this was the best hotel we've ever stayed at on holiday. Huge thanks to all the hotel staff for making our vacation so enjoyable and relaxing. Read less

Mixed Experience with Some Highs and Lows. We recently stayed at this hotel and found it to be a mixed bag—some aspects were great, while others left a lot to be desired. Pros: Clean Facilities: The hotel is very well-maintained. Public areas, rooms, and common spaces are kept spotless. Friendly Staff: Staff members are welcoming and generally helpful. They try their best to assist, even when language barriers come into play. Free Shuttle Service: A free bus to the local mall is a nice touch and adds convenience if you want to explore outside the hotel. Cons: Food Catering Primarily to Russian Guests: The buffet was clearly designed with the hotel's main clientele in mind—lots of stews and soups, even during the summer months. This may not appeal to everyone, especially if you're expecting lighter or more diverse holiday cuisine. Travel Representatives Geared Towards Russian Market: Most of the on-site reps cater exclusively to Russian-speaking guests, leaving non-Russian speakers reliant on online tourism sites to plan excursions. Pool Issues: The pool was not temperature-controlled, so in the summer heat it felt more like a hot bath than a refreshing swim. It’s also quite small for the size of the hotel, making it overcrowded during peak hours—you often find yourself bobbing between other guests. Towel Service: Housekeeping often removed our towels but forgot to replace them, resulting in regular 10–20 minute waits for new ones to be brought to the room. Sea View Rooms Warning: While the sea view is lovely, be prepared for noise in the evenings. Entertainment (usually a singer and a somewhat out-of-tune violinist) continues poolside until 11pm. If you’re a light sleeper or traveling with kids, this might be an issue. Average: Room Type: We stayed in a King/Queen Guest Room with a Sea View Double. Room Size: The room felt small for a family of four. Bedding: The main bed was fine, but the sofa bed was extremely hard and uncomfortable. Overall Verdict: If you’re a Russian-speaking guest looking for a friendly, clean hotel with convenient local transport, this place will likely suit you well. For others, especially families looking for a relaxing, international holiday experience, the hotel may fall short in several key areas. Read less

Wow—what an experience! We’re still here, and I’m already looking forward to our next visit. This hotel truly goes above and beyond for families. While the presence of many Russian guests can feel a bit overwhelming at times—some of whom came across as brash or abrupt—it didn’t take away from our overall experience. I found that mirroring their directness with confidence made all the difference. But honestly, this was only a small aspect of an otherwise incredible stay. The hotel itself is exceptional. I’ve never witnessed staff work so tirelessly and with such genuine care. The lifeguards deserve a special mention—they are phenomenal. With three young children at different swimming levels, I felt more at ease here than on any other holiday. It truly felt like we had an extra three pairs of eyes watching over our kids. As a small token of appreciation, we made a point to bring them drinks from the bar. Sitting out all day in the intense heat while staying attentive is no easy task, and they do it with such professionalism. The rooms are immaculate and the beds incredibly comfortable. Our balcony offered stunning views, making it the perfect place to unwind. The kitchen staff were just as outstanding—Chef Kamal offers a wide range of delicious dishes and is more than happy to accommodate any dietary needs. We were fortunate to be regularly served by Nadi, who was an absolute delight. She’s one of the loveliest people we’ve met while traveling—always cheerful, warm, and attentive. She took the time to chat with us and was wonderful with our children, even sharing stories about her home country, Myanmar. Thank you, Nadi! A big thanks also to Manoj, the head of the dining area, who constantly made the rounds to ensure every guest felt looked after. Hampton by Hilton, thank you for making our first visit to the UAE such a memorable and special experience. This place now holds a very special place in our hearts. We can’t wait to return. Read less
