Guest Ratings & Reviews
My stay at the hotel was wonderful! The rooms were really nice and comfortable, especially compared to other hotels in KSA. They were clean, and comfortable, with calm and elegant decoration. The service was very welcoming and helpful, and although I encountered two unprofessional receptionists, overall they were great and helpful. The location was accessible to any point of Riyadh center, making it convenient for my purposes. The dining experience was excellent, although there was not a big variety of food, but everything was tasty, fresh, and clean. The facilities were up to Crown Plaza Standards, and I was really impressed by them.
The hotel offers classy and comfortable rooms equipped with everything you might need. The service is excellent with a warm welcome and great helpfulness, though there were issues with booking and pricing. The location is good, but a bit far from main attractions and amidst construction. Dining is satisfactory but a bit expensive with limited variety. Overall, a decent stay with some areas needing improvement.
The hotel rooms were really nice and comfortable, very spacious and comfy, but being overcharged left a bad taste. The service was friendly and helpful, eager to please, and professional. The location is near our office. The dining experience was not up to the level expected. The facilities are well spread with different choices.
The hotel is ideally located in Riyadh, close to our meeting the next day but a bit far from the city center. The rooms are modern, comfy, and well-designed with a big bed, yet they lack natural daylight due to tight windows. The VEG-VERY ATTENTIVE and eager to please restaurant staff provided excellent service. However, solutions to issues weren't as prompt as expected. The dining experience offered a good selection, especially the freshly prepared eggs, but at a slightly higher price for average food quality. The interior is excellent despite ongoing metro construction nearby.
I found this hotel to be a cozy spot with wooden interiors, offering a clean and comfortable stay with a range of amenities in the rooms. The new hotel provided a spacious and comfortable environment, although the feeling of being overcharged was a downside.
