Reviews and Ratings
The hotel staff was helpful, especially Mr TURKI and Mr MARWAN. The location is excellent, right next to the haram, but lacks commercial activity. The dining options could be improved for a more diverse palate, but the rooms were up to standard.
The hotel is extremely close to our Prophet's Masjid and offers a great value for the money, but the dining options could have been more varied. The service is lacking in cooperation and can be more considerate towards disabled guests.
The hotel offers a great location just a few seconds' walk to the Haram. The staff is friendly and professional, though some areas like dining could be improved. Despite minor issues, the hotel provides a convenient stay close to the mosque.
I was lucky to enjoy the super comfortable and wide rooms with a beautiful Haram view thanks to the manager. It was truly amazing to wake up and see the peaceful Masjid right from my bed. The room was perfect, and the bed was amazingly comfortable. However, being on a low floor without a view of the Haram was a downside, and the bathroom towels had a very unpleasant smell.
The service, while helpful and friendly, could be better trained for more hospitality. The location is excellent for easy access to the mosque but lacks commercial activity. The dining experience was satisfactory but could have offered more variety. Overall, a convenient choice with some room for improvement.
The hotel is conveniently close to the Haram and offers clean and comfortable rooms. The service could be more hospitable, but overall, the location is excellent for accessing religious sites. The dining options lack variety but offer good quality food. Facility offerings are satisfactory.
My stay at the hotel was wonderful! The rooms are super comfortable and spacious, thanks to the manager who upgraded me to a beautiful Haram view room. Imagine sitting on your bed and seeing the peaceful Masjid in Madina. After about 8 hours of checking in, returning to such a view was simply amazing. The service was top-notch, super clean, and well-organized. The location couldn't have been better, with views of Haram and Jannat ul Baqi. The dining had different varieties and really good food. Overall, a great experience with some room for improvement in dining options.
I found the hotel to be conveniently located, close to Haram with a quick walk, but the constant noise from the lifts and hallway conversations were quite disruptive. The rooms were spacious with two beds, but cleanliness could have been improved, and it lacked basic amenities like toothbrushes despite being a 5-star establishment.
