Hotels Near Masjid al-Haram in Makkah

Super Impressed with everything!! Front Desk, concierge, cleaning staff and the restaurant!! They all made us feel extremely welcome and exceptional. I want to shout to the best restaurant team of the world, I have visited every continent and many many countries. This service has been exceptional.. beyond exceptional!!! Namely Chidfrul Aziz One and only Monir Islam, Nanna, Ahmed Hosein aka Mr mustache, Mr Radwan, Mr manhood, Mr Ricky, and Amir!! And Riaz.. and all the chefs and kitchen that were so accommodating us and our children.. Chef Rashad with the big smile!! Thank you everyone!! You made our trip super amazing!!!

We stayed for a week. Overall, it was a decent experience although ultimately overpriced during Umrah. The room was relatively small. We were able to add a third guest at a cost of 300 riyals per night which was reasonable but only a bunk bed was offered and it took the minimal space available. The bathroom sink was clogged during our entire stay despite repetitive requests made to the cleaning staff and on the Bonvoy Marriott app. The food experience is however terrible! Iftar at the restaurant is extremely overpriced for 250 riyals per person and unjustified for a food of poor quality and not tasty at that. The scheduling was also hectic. Iftar was only from 7 to 9 pm and Sohour from 1 to 3 am; meaning if one wanted to attend Taraweeh, they would not be able to eat by the time they came back from the Mosque and would have to wait until 1 am to sustain themselves, which is ridiculous. We were therefore eating at the coffeeshop reception which was offering a buffet for 100 riyals per person, which was still overpriced for what it was. Only a few items were offered and not replenished.

Very, very distinguished management All services and workers are top notch Bravo, the title: Transferring excellence from Dubai to Mecca. I thank all those working on this elegant project, and I especially thank the director, Mr. Maan

This has been the worst experience and hotel I have ever been to. Me and my husband came to stay here as part of our umrah package deal. We arrived at the hotel and were sat waiting for over 3 hours due to complications with our booking which was primarily due to the fault of our travel agents. However, members of staff at the hotel were not willing to help the situation considering we had landed from a flight and it was now late evening. Whilst we were dealing with the situation of sorting out our booking a member of the booking office advised that we pay for a night ourselves on top of what we had already paid and that by the following day the situation would be sorted. The following morning we met with the service manager who we went to ask for a refund as the extra night we had paid for was not needed due to our booking being fixed the previous night by almost midnight. We tried explaining that we didn’t want to pay for the extra night however that is what was advised to us by the booking staff the night before who stood there quietly as if he wasn’t the one who told us to do so. The service manager was the most disrespectful individual I have come across telling us that he wouldn’t issue a refund as it wasn’t the fault of the hotel. There had been extra complications arising as there had now been 3 bookings under our name by the following morning no fault of our own but now miscommunication between travel agents and the hotel. Whilst I was trying to explain the situation the service manager asked that I be quiet and that he wasn’t going to listen to me. I felt berated by this person and as a result went to speak to the manager of the hotel. The manager of the hotel was just as rude and was not empathetic with the situation at all. I explained that our first time experience of umrah had been ruined by the lack of understanding and disrespect from the staff at the hotel. The manager himself was just as rude and not wanting to listen. After going to our bedroom we found that the water from the sink was brown, plug sockets were broken, tv was broken, phones were broken and shower wasn’t working properly. During our time here we had housekeeping visit us once and we had asked SEVERAL times for two days straight for extra towels, toilet roll and an iron which we got half through the trip. The breakfast was probably the only decent thing about this hotel. I wouldn’t dare to recommend this hotel to anyone.

The hotel is a number 8 towers which look like they used to be apartments. Very high end, with lots of lifts and friendly reception staff in the lobby. We had a partial view of the clock tower which was nice. They offer a good buffet breakfast, restaurant and in room dining options, however, the wait times for eggs and pancakes is too long. The hotel also offers a shuttle service, 5-10 minutes wait and which can be manic during busy times. People push and shove to get on as its everyman for himself like you would see in third world country. The shuttle service is 10-15 minutes to Haram and is about 20 minute walk to the holy mosque. I would prefer to be closer to the mosque next time and within a 5 -10 minite walking distance as getting to prayers in the mosque requires being early about 1 hours before if you want to pray infront of the Kabaa and can make one lazy to go back and forth because of the distance and waiting for shuttles.

If you looking for 4 star budget hotel then don’t look anywhere. This is the best you can get. They have a free shuttle bus service which runs every half an hour. It drops you at Marwa Gate. You got walk for 10 till 15 mins in order to reach at Haram. The pick you up from the same place. I didn’t have any issue for shuttle bus service. The shuttle service was good enough. The only down fall is the walking towards the haram. I had my son with me and he struggle to walk for each time. The food for hotel is worse. I did not like it at all. I had the breakfast buffet and paid 100 riyals. It was a worse food experience. The choice of breakfast was very limited. Overall it’s good budget hotel. I guess you to compromise somewhere.

Umrah trip with family Mar 2023 Went there for Umra trip with family we were bit confused while booking this hotel since it is located a bit away from Haram (1.5kms), however, they have shuttle service with good reviews 1. Hotel is super nice, new and very clean. Checkin was super quick although we had two rooms and were given on seperate floors as they didnt had two rooms on the same floor. 2. Rooms were good clean and tidy on check-in. They provided all basic amenities like iron, iron board, safe, etc. However, the rooms service was an issue and i had to complain and ask the counter to get the room cleaned after requesting the staff for couple of time. 3. Shuttle service was superb. Evertime there is a shuttle standing at the enterence leaving in approx 20 to 30 mins. Drop off point is the bus station behind clock tower with hardly few minutes walk to the Haram. 4. Even if you use Taxi it usually charges 15 riyals during normal timings and max 20 riyals during rush hours. We mostly used taxi service which was also very convinient. 5. Hotel location is very peaceful, you can find few restaurants nearby and baqalas for basic requirements.

We stayed at the hotel for 12 amazing days. The staffs were very welcoming and always attentive to our needs. The receptionists are always here to help with any of your issues. Be it laundry, housekeeping, payment, anything. Aadil from housekeeping did great cleaning jobs throughout our stay. Regular free shuttle to Masjid Al Haram really enhances your visit for swalat or even shopping etc. Note that you can wash your clothes and sun dry it on the roof. Bring your own cords. A big THANK YOU to the management. Really helped! Food snacks and drinks is now available from room service Note: register yourself on Accor App to benefit from discount on your hotel stay payments. I think 5%. Thank you Ibis Styles team for making our first Umrah memorable.

Good stay in Makkah whilst we visited as a family. Close to Hajj ziyārah sites and only 5 minute drive to Masjid al Haram (when it’s quiet. Reasonably clean though I wasn’t convinced by the IHG cleanliness assurance during these sensitive times. We went for the 2 interconnecting rooms but the hotel had lost the key to the interconnecting door!! It took all night and into dawn before we were relocated into another room with a door that allowed access to each others room... quite important when you have 3 children. Until then, all 5 of us slept in one room for the first night of the 2 nights booked!! Our new room had issues with the door lock sensor.... so a maintenance problem all round. Once the issues were sorted however, everything else was smooth. Decent enough breakfast for European and Arab tastes. Spacious rooms, well decorated. One thing to note... reception staff are excellent - polite, well mannered and want to get things sorted for you. It’s just unfortunate the maintenance staff struggle. I’d recommend on the basis the maintenance issues were a one off issue.

The hotel management provide the shuttle services to Masjid Al Haram, 30 minutes cycle for one shuttle to another, for travellers concern about the hotel charges in the front of Al Haram Mosque have to look an alternatives where to stay. The Park Inn Radisson, together with Millenium, Copthorne and Four Points share the beautiful Mosque Rajhi, Nassem, seek an alternative to the travellers who seek on their budget especially the last 10 th night of Ramadhan. The earliest you book, will lead to peace of mind, in stay wise during your Umrah visits
