Sands Hotel is located in the middle of the city, and even though its 20-30 minutes walk away from the major malls there are some other shopping centres nearby. Hotel is clean and nice, and ok sized rooms. We were given a room on the upper floors facing towards the city itself, so we had a nice view of the... More

Stayed on an overnight trip. Hotel a bit older than some of the others in the area but room has enough room and amenities if you want the hotel as a base to stay. Staff are pleasant and price is great if you don't want luxuries. Location is good as central for shopping areas and corniche is walking/taxi ride away. More
