Not so bad hotel but the rooms are not luxurious. The scene there is very nice. The stuff are not so friendly. The food is very good. A day-use is enough or a couple of hours at the cafe / main restaurant.

The hotel is well positioned in a lovely location. However, it is extremley dated with poor decor. The rooms were clean enough but the smelled damp and musky. The finishing of the bathroom fittings was terrible. The broadband service was shocking.

We travelled up the coast by taxi for dinner at the Meridian Hotel Fujeriah. It was amazing and on checking we were suprised to find that it was only 15% more expensive than the Oceanic.

The Oceanic is over priced!!

I have had a chance to stay at the Oceanic Hotel a few times and I have been honestly very
satisfied every time.

I've stayed in some questionable places, but this was by far the worst. It was filthy. We just about managed to sit on the sofa in our room (dubiously perched would be a better description). Damp on the walls, furnishings that haven't been cleaned or updated since god knows when, full of sand and sweat of previous guests. We managed to stay for 30 mins before we couldn't cope any more and left (the first time I have walked out of anywahere), as the thought of sleeping in the bed was just too much.
