The staff were great. Room was clean. But the carpets in the hallways need a makeover. Hotel a little bit on the old side. The staff really stood out.

Fantastic hotel, staff are amazing and very welcoming and friendly. Special thanks to Menaka the receptionist who was very supportive and helpful throughout our stay and also kudos to Abu Thomas from the Breakfast supervisor in the morning restaurant. Would love to be back to the hotel if I’m in Bahrain.

Friendly and good value for the money
Very friendly staff who provided great service. Nice swimming pool, breakfast buffet was standard. Music from the hotel club could be heard in our room to late in the night, but we were not that bothered by it. The hotel needs renovation but overall was good value for the money. Great parking and walking distance to the local marked and financial district

A LITTLE BIT NAUGHTY....BUT MOSTLY NICE!
I had heard a few negative things about this hotel and even my taxi driver from the airport rolled his eyes when I told him where I was going. The service was mostly very nice and even though the common areas in the hotel are a bit dated and kitsch, the rooms we're actually really quite pleasant. My room was large and very clean and comfortable. The bed was comfortable as well. The nightclub downstairs can be very noisy and revelers returning to their rooms could be very drunken and noisy in the middle of the night. The only thing that was ridiculously old was the thermostat in the room - it wasn't even digital! I did like the pool at the property! Room service menu promised a spaghetti bolognese that was full of vegetables and packed with flavour. It was thick, brown sludge that smelt like rotting meat and no vegetables in sight. When I asked for a refund, there was a bit of a drama but I eventually got my refund. Avoid the bolognese! Everything else from room service was quite nice.

Check in resulted in me getting a room where the bed wasn’t made and the phone was not working. Although I was given another room which was ready, during my stay, each night there was loud music coming from function events (or their in-house entertainment venue - which isn’t referred to in the hotel description) which was not ideal. Complaints were given to the front desk, to which they said they will ask for the volume to be reduced, but this did not happen. Breakfast is average, if that. Won’t come back again.

The hotel was luxus maybe 25 years ago but not any more. It needs renovating. We probably did not get the room we had ordered and were placed originally to a smoking room even though not ordered so. The room was ok but the bathroom was a disaster. The main problem was its structure - there was nothing practical. No place where to put your things, very unsuccesfull (two) hooks, no plug in hand basin, hot and cold water taps separately, toilet half broken. The worst was the shower tray - maybe 80x80 cm and all the water makes half of the bathroom wet. There was no cleaning every day even though supposed. Towels has to be requested several times. Breakfast room was too cold with strong air condition. And whose idea it has been to place a nightclub in the hotel?!? The noice was strong until 2 am. Location ok.

Do not stay here
Terrible hotel, would not recommend staying and I will be putting in a complaint.
Room was ok, quite dated and a lot of damage around but size ok.
Big issues were noise. There are at least two bars/clubs attached to the hotel, and the noise goes on extremely loud until around 4am. So loud you can hear through ear plugs!
Was then woken up at 6.30am to hammering, and whilst out by the pool, which is probably the best part of the hotel, had workers walking past doing renovations in the hotel. Stayed there during the F1 week, which must be a busy week for all hotels in this area, so not sure why works needed to happen this week seeing as a lot of people around!
Another big issue was the WiFi.. think we only had it working for about 3 hours in total across a 5 night stay.
There was a tp link box in our room that had an orange light majority of the time and did not get fixed, even after mentioning to staff a few times.
Also think this hotel/the bars may be brothel/knocking shop. A lot of women in little clothes coming in and single men walking around. Didn’t necessarily feel very safe there!
Don’t think this should be being sold to stay in purely for the noise issues!
