Good location, however being on the 25th floor was not very user friendly for lifts, had to change halfway down and also not very clearly marked. Also, the on site musallah on the 2nd floor (I think) was miles away. Wasn't easy to get to with my mum in a wheelchair. Otherwise not a bad property location wise.

Happy stay 😀
We enjoyed our stay our stay with very friendly support staff. Also very responsive housekeeping team and pro active. The porters were very punctual and cooperative when luggage was being picked up and also upon leaving. Location was very good with easy access to the Grand Mosque especially during busy moments and times. I would recommend the hotel to friends and family going forward.

This is possibly one of the worst hotels to get an email response from, even after a number of attempts via various channels, they just refuse to respond to any enquiries before arrival. The hotel also states kabah view, but have a room which had a view of the kabah but most of the haram was covered by buildings. The breakfast is a big selection, but lacked taste or quality.

Amazing location right in front of Masjid Al Haram. Breakfast was the best part, so many options and huge room perfect for the amount of people who come for pilgrimage, also included a lot of stations such as for pancake, omelette, fresh juice etc. Hotel is conjoined with the clock tower and mall so perfect for a quick shopping spree any day with a two story food court. Overall great, will definitely come again
