Review of Swissotel Makkah
I recently stayed at Swissotel Makkah, and unfortunately, my experience did not meet the expectations set by its five-star rating. Here are some of the issues I encountered during my stay: 1. Room Cleanliness: Upon entering my room, I was disappointed to find it dirty. The floors had not been cleaned properly, and the linens were not fresh. 2. Unpleasant Odors: The pillows in the room had a noticeable and unpleasant smell, which made it difficult for me to get a good night's sleep. 3. Shower Temperature Control: I struggled to control the temperature of the shower, resulting in an uncomfortable bathing experience. 4. Concierge Service: After checking in, I had to wait about 15 minutes for the concierge to assist me with my luggage. I ended up having to chase them down three times before receiving help. Overall, my experience at Swissotel Makkah was far from satisfactory, and I believe improvements are necessary to ensure that future guests receive the quality of service they expect. I hope the management addresses these concerns, as I was truly looking forward to a memorable stay. Rating: ★★☆☆☆ (2/5)

The property is amazing and at 5 mins distance from Haram. The only issue is I paid through expedia for 4 people which included free breakfast. Firstly hotel said they cannot find our booking and after goong back and forth they sorted out after 2 hours. Secondly they said breafast is only for 1 person however room was booked for 4. Good thing they are good woth eary check ins and late checkouts.
