Stayed here for 7 nights during April 2012 - Booked 2 room - 3 bed & 2 bed. Hotel was very nice and newly renovated. Very close to the Haram - and you can see the Haram as soon as you step out of the hotel. Walking distance 1-2 mins. nice breakfast buffer including both hot and cold food.

Bathroom: Standard sized bathroom which was always kept clean and tidy. TIP: No washing line in bathroom so bring along some string to hang clothes. Location: The hotel is a few meters from the King Fahd entrances on... More

The only advantage of this hotel is the location, being very close to the Haram. Nothing else which is good can be said about this hotel. Rooms are horrible: my room had no safe box the carpets were stained the sheets were dirty the bathroom water would change in waves of cold and hot the decor is horrible and old.

Both the rooms were spacious and clean. Although the carpet needs to be replaced. Rooms were cleaned every day. Had TV in both the rooms and was... More
