Nice overall
It eas a blessng to have stayed so close and be able to pray inside the room. The bathrooms were a bit weird as the shower space was not made well and too small. Also, not being to able to have uber drivers pull up to the entrance was a hassel as our luggage had to be dragged almost 1Km away when checking out. Our driver could not pull up to the entrance while checking in either. Travelling to and from was not easy. However, the staff were friendly, breakfast was good, and the location trumps all other issues. Thanks to all the helpful staff.

Close to Kaaba and clock tower shopping and dining options. Bathroom shower is too small and water started backing up. Very crowded hotel especially at peak times. Breakfast buffet was very good. Elevators especially for the top floors was very slow. Expect for it to take 10 minutes to get down from the higher floors. Convenient option for Makkah but needs to do better.

Good hotel that has easy access to the mall with a walkway that leads right to the haram. The hotel rooms are nice but the bathrooms are small and not the cleanest, but I would still recommend the hotel. It’s our 4th visiting for Umrah over 2 years and we have always stayed at this hotel for to the convenience of walking distance to the haram and the mall. If you select half board, the breakfast and lunch options that they offer in the buffet are plentiful.
