HOTELS IN RAS AL KHAIMAH

 
At the time of writing, Ras Al Khaimah has more than twenty hotels and a few short-term furnished apartment complexes. Nevertheless, many new hotels are under construction or designed to be built in the near future, so the number of hotels will increase significantly.
 
Five stars resorts are usually located along the beach and offer full holiday packages with access to the sea, sport centres, restaurants and clubs. Most of the mid-range hotels are situated in the centre of Ras Al Khaimah and Al Nakheel and are popular amongst businesspersons and local tourists. There are no youth hostels or budget hotels in Ras Al Khaimah. For those who are in town on a longer business trip, or need a larger space before finding their own apartment or house, there are a few furnished accommodations, usually with one or two bedrooms, a kitchen and a sitting room attached.
 
All hotels accept cash and major credit cards as a means of payment.
Details on some of the restaurants and sports amenities available in the hotels are covered in the Food and Restaurants, and Sports sections.

FUTURE HOTELS
The numbers of tourist visiting Ras Al Khaimah has increased significantly over the last few years, and this trend is expected to continue. The RAK Tourism Department predicts that the total number of visitors will reach up to 2.5 million by 2012. Therefore, there is an urgent need to increase the room availability. As a result, an enormous expansion of hotel constructions can be witnessed. Numerous five-star luxurious hotels and resorts are to be launched in the near future.
