The only good thing is location, very close to the Haram. Big time discrimination, they give us a room like grave, with dirty amenities, ripped blankets ,rude behavior. After fighting till next day without sleep, they chane the room , and that was while new world ,nice window, clean amenities better quality blankets and well behaved house keeping staff.

This hotel is listed as a 5-star property on sites.they're trying to avoid reviews on those platform to keep it a 5 star. I initially booked through one of that platform but the hotel contacted me shortly after asking me to cancel and rebook through here.later discovered others had reported similar experiences as they avoiding reviews on those platform. The main advantage of this hotel is its location. If staying near the Haram is your priority, it’s a decent option. The Safa Tower connects to the Clock Tower, and while you’ll need to change two elevators and use an escalator, the walk to the Haram is still fairly convenient. In fact, having stayed at the Fairmont before, I’d say this hotel might be slightly closer to the Haram entrance. That said, service and accessibility were disappointing. You have to walk through a market and take escator to reach the entrance with no clear signage or staff to guide you.Taxis aren’t allowed to stop directly outside, so getting one can be a hassle often requiring a long wait for drivers to come from upper parking. Check-in was also poor. The staff handed me the key without explaining anything or where my room,hotel facilities, or breakfast is,which was included in my booking. I had to ask for basic directions myself. For a hotel claiming to be 5-star, the service fell far short. Overall, I’d rate this hotel as a 2 to 3-star property at best. It’s only worth considering
black stuff around sink and even some parts of shower

The decor is dated, the furniture belongs to 19th century used and battered the bed was awful, bathroom unfit for purpose. This hotel does not deserve 5* it’s 2 at the best. The only saviour is its location, other hotels available at better price.
