Decent Stay.

We stayed here for 5 days for our Umrah trip. It was a decent stay. We are a family of 5, and we stayed in the room with 4 twin beds. The room itself was very crammed with all our bags and not much space to walk. The cleanliness of the sleeping area was fine, the bathrooms needed more cleaning. Overall i dont think the price was worth it, the elevators were always full and lobbies were crowded, however its close to the haram so it was fine. I wouldnt stay again.

Everything was awesome except 1 thing. Food was not hot ! We had breakfast and dinner for 5 days. Even if i spoon it from the bottom of the dish. It is very lightly warm.. almost cold. So i would suggest the hotel to raise the temperature of their food!!!! So people can enjoy hot food

One of the standout features is its prime location—just a short walk from the Haram via the Ajyad Street bridge, making it incredibly convenient for those wishing to perform prayers without any hassle. The food at the hotel was exceptional. Both the breakfast and dinner offerings were diverse and delicious, catering to a variety of tastes. Each meal was thoughtfully prepared, and the quality was consistently high throughout my stay. The housekeeping team also deserves special mention. They were always friendly, attentive, and ensured that my room was spotless and well-maintained throughout my visit. It’s clear they take pride in their work and are committed to providing guests with a comfortable and pleasant experience.

Great hotel. Breakfast was a little chaotic and couldn’t find necessary items but it is a very busy location. Consider other options for breakfast, if you have time.
