Reviews

  • Henry from Saudi Arabia – 6 May 2025 (9/10)

    Clean, comfortable

    What could be improved: None

  • Vassilis from Cyprus – 29 April 2025 (7/10)

    Staff super friendly , especially the front desk team. Breakfast had a good spread. They gave me a renovated room which was good and a great selection of pillows.

    What could be improved: Only one F&B outlet as the hotel had internal renovation. No other facilities which was a shame. F&B wasn't great , when ordering room service many items were missing from the description and the quality was sub-par.

  • Moothedath from Saudi Arabia – 24 March 2025 (9/10)

    Staff approach

  • Liam from United Kingdom – 24 March 2025 (8/10)

    Great staff. Great room service food. Great room. The shower was just perfect.

    What could be improved: It’s a little far from the main Riyadh attractions but that wouldn’t stop me from staying here again. I also got an Uber from the airport to the wrong hotel, so make sure to select the correct hotel on Uber or Google Maps.
