I must say, the housekeeping service was outstanding!
Arif who took care of my room, was incredibly attentive, professional, and thorough. My room was always spotless, with fresh towels, perfectly made beds, and all the little details attended to with care. He always greeted me with a smile and ensured that I had everything I needed for a comfortable stay. It truly made a difference in my experience, and I felt well taken care of throughout my visit. Highly recommend!

I stayed a night at this hotel and had a generally positive experience. The breakfast was a standout, with a lavish spread that was fresh and tasty. The pools, both for kids and adults, were impeccably clean, and the presence of a lifeguard added an extra layer of safety. However, there were some issues with the room. Despite being advertised as an extra king-size bed, it was actually smaller than a standard king size. Additionally, the commode in the washroom needed a thorough cleaning, and a dental kit was not provided. I believe the hotel should pay more attention to room hygiene. Overall, while the pool area and the food at the restaurant were excellent, there’s room for improvement in room maintenance.

Unacceptable Experience at Radisson Resort, Ras Al Khaimah Marjan Island
I'm extremely disappointed with my recent experience at Radisson Resort, Ras Al Khaimah Marjan Island (Booking #1472159365, Check-in: Dec 18, 2024). Despite a confirmed booking for a Premium Room with Balcony (AED 283, excluding tourism tax),
The hotel:
1. Refused accommodation for my three children under 5 years old sharing a bed, contrary to industry standards.
2. Demanded an exorbitant upgrade fee,more than 50% than price i already paid,
3. Refused cancellation despite unreasonable demands.
4. Displayed unhelpful behavior from staff across departments, particularly the Reservation Manager.
5. Front desk manager justified refusal citing "excessive towel usage" – utterly unprofessional.
Warning
Avoid Radisson Resort, Ras Al Khaimah Marjan Island when traveling with young children. Unclear policies, inflexible cancellation, unhelpful staff and unprofessional management made our experience unbearable.
Recommendations
1. Research family-friendly hotels.
2. Verify child occupancy policies.
3. Consider hotels with flexible cancellation policies.
4. Read reviews carefully
Resolution
After:
1. Multiple emails and calls
2. Two times hotel visit
3. 2-hours lobby wait with children
I finally received a refund.

The whole family spent 2 weeks at the hotel on an all inclusive basis during the last week of August and first week of September. Every minute in the hotel was faultless. Real effort was made to keep the food interesting for what is a lot of guests, theme nights, varying options, wide choice whilst still maintaining standard offerings, the best part was not a chip or french fry to be seen! Rooms were spacious, well maintained and clean, the air conditioning was fantastic and very welcome with the August/September temperatures. Tea and coffee and water was supplied every day and despite other negative reviews for towels, they were always fresh and clean.
The outstanding element of the hotel absolutely was the team of people in every single area of the hotel, reception, housekeeping, bars, restaurants, always happy to talk, smile, help and serve. It would be unfair to call out anyone as the best as not one person did not excel. It is a really friendly, happy helpful and efficient team of people that really want to make guests happy and do the best job possible, they are a credit to Radisson! Thank you to each and every one of them and they really do need medals for handling how some of the guests are rude and disrespectful to them.
The only part of the holiday we enjoyed less is absolutely no reflection on the hotel or staff but Al Marjan Island "will" be the next Palm but it isn't yet, there are a few things to do in the area but you do need to travel as the area of the Island is still under development and quite sparce. We will go back but will give it 2 years until the area is further developed. If you need to relax, chill out and not do a lot this is the perfect no hassle, great service retreat! Thanks to all of you.

We had wonderful weekend stay at the hotel for our wedding anniversary. Our kids enjoyed the water slides so much. Rooms are very specious, staffs were helpful and friendly. We received a complimentary cake for our special occasion, which made us so welcomed. Requested for late check-out and kids had more fun at the pool. Thanks to Ms. Ludmila and All for your efforts to make our stay unforgettable.
