Guest Tips & Highlights
The location is great ,at the center
We had a wonderful stay at this hotel, the staff was incredibly friendly and helpful from the moment we checked in، the room was spacious and very comfortable, we really appreciated the attention to detail (there was a daily supply of water bottles). Also the location is perfect! Being right in the city center and within walking distance of all shops which made our stay too easy. We almost didn't need to take a taxi except for going to ayla oasis and chinese market which costed us 2-3 jod per way. Breakfast buffet was also great. We would definitely return to this hotel on our next stay to the city.
