Great stay, close to the Masjid.
Great clean, comfy hotel, with beautiful smell everywhere you go.
The location was amazing, very close to the Majid.
The breakfast was delicious and had so much variety.
The only negative part was the checkin which was at 16h. It’s too late having to wait all that time especially when other hotels (same standards) have earlier checkins.

Medina stay
We were here for two nights, the service is excellent, breakfast is excellent and 1 min walk to the Mosque. The hotel could use an update for the price i paid, but the service more then made up for it.

The property was very nice and clean. A special thank you to the following members. Ahmed at reception, Aladin at the restaurant for Breakfast & Dinner were exceptional. Their service was extra ordinary.
