The magnificent Chedi Al Bait in Sharjah brings the rich history of the United Arab Emirates to life. The 53-room resort covers an impressive 10,000 square meters, while the rooms, restaurants, spa, and wellness facilities have been integrated into historic buildings that are almost a century old. Asian and Arabic details underscore the historic atmosphere, complemented by an in-house library, a museum, and a lively traditional open-air marketplace. Sharjah's colorful heritage is beautifully preserved at the emirate's most luxurious address.
The heated outdoor pool is a peaceful spot surrounded by historic buildings, ideal for reading a book and listening to the birds chirping. The luxurious spa with a hammam and separate facilities for men and women offers wonderful relaxation. In the late afternoon, when the sun is lower, the hotel grounds with their labyrinthine alleys and stately wooden doors invite you to stroll and explore. Visit the in-house library, the museum, or Souq Al Arsah, a traditional open-air market where you will find numerous handmade souvenirs.
Enjoy an intimate selection of 53 well-appointed accommodations, comprising eight different categories of rooms and suites – from cozy guest rooms to spacious patio rooms to elegant Chedi Suites. Each room reflects rich Asian and Arabic influences in its design and furnishings. Traditional carpets, knotted wall hangings, antique wooden furniture, and upholstered Majlis-style sofas create an authentic, cozy living atmosphere.
Traditional, aromatic cuisine is an essential part of Sharjah's cultural life. From morning to night, the restaurant's menu offers a wide range of options, from traditional Arabic gourmet dishes to international meals with Asian, Mediterranean, and Indian influences. A charming café offers sweet treats for those with a sweet tooth and serves fresh Arabic or Turkish tea and coffee every day.
Al Bait means "home" in Arabic – and indeed, The Chedi Al Bait in Sharjah strives to offer its guests a luxurious home away from home with an impressive combination of impeccable service, authentic décor, and high-quality facilities. Part of the GHM group, The Chedi Al Bait is located in a unique, heritage-listed property comprising six restored buildings, almost a century old, which once served as the residence of the Al Midfa family. A limited number of just 53 rooms and suites ensures an intimate, peaceful vacation experience. Patterned carpets, hand-woven wall hangings, and majlis sofas skillfully capture the spirit of the region and exude an authentic Middle Eastern flair.
