A great hotel in all aspects and during Haj time with all the crowdness the service remained A -class. A great reason for such Review is also Ismail Omar the Restaurant manager who is a great example of work devotion and guest service. He has demonstrated many qualities in tough times how to handle the guests kindly with a smile, while dealing with a crisis effectively in no time leading his team in person working hand in hand. I have rarely seen such caliber in this area with such professional attitude. The restaurant and food are among the best things in hotel, however the hotel overall is of great service and value. Keep it up and take care of your good people. 👏👍 Read less

We were visiting from the USA, and our experience at Swissôtel Makkah was truly outstanding. The highlight of our stay was the incredible hospitality we received — especially from Mr. Sakeer, the assistant manager, whom we had the pleasure of interacting with during the daily dining. He was incredibly welcoming, always checking in to see if everything was okay, asking if we needed anything, and offering to help in any way he could. His warm personality and attentiveness really made a difference and left a lasting impression on us. The buffet meals for both breakfast and dinner were phenomenal — so much variety, consistently delicious food, and the dessert bar was next-level. Even during the busiest times, there was always plenty to choose from, and the staff worked tirelessly to keep everything well-stocked and fresh. The rooms were beautiful and comfortable, and the in-room Adhan system was such a thoughtful touch that enhanced the spiritual experience of our trip. And of course, the location — 0 meters from Masjid al-Haram — couldn’t have been more perfect. Even in the busiest foot traffic during Hajj season, I always appreciated the location of my hotel as I knew that in just a few more feet I would be home. Every part of our stay reflected high-quality service, genuine care, and great attention to detail. We’re so grateful for the hospitality we received and would definitely return again. Read less

My stay at Swissôtel Makkah was one of the best hotel experiences I’ve ever had. From the moment I arrived, I was warmly welcomed by the front desk agent Ahmed Al Amri, who was highly professional and made the check-in process smooth and quick. He was very responsive and answered all my questions with a smile, reflecting the excellent hospitality of the hotel. I stayed in room 1223, and when it comes to cleanliness and in-room service, I would like to give special thanks to Ammar Aref from the housekeeping department. He was very attentive to the room’s cleanliness on a daily basis, paying attention to the smallest details. His attitude was respectful and polite, and he was always ready to assist with anything I needed—always with a smile and prompt service. along with the high-level services, made this stay truly unforgettable. I highly recommend Swissôtel Makkah to anyone looking for comfort, quality, and exceptional hospitality. Read less

I recently stayed at this hotel in Makkah during the last ten days of Ramadan, and it was a wonderful experience! The hotel’s service was exceptional, and the rooms were spotless. What made my stay truly memorable was a special surprise for Mother’s Day. My sister, who wasn’t with us, called the hotel from Jeddah to arrange a surprise cake for my mother and me. The customer service representative, Mr. Fares Alhazmi, handled the request with such grace and didn’t charge anything for it! The cake was beautiful, and the gesture was incredibly touching. I also want to extend my thanks to the hotel manager, Mr. Faisal, for his attentive service. The junior suite was spacious, comfortable, and offered great privacy with two bathrooms. Overall, an excellent stay Read less

Amazing, hospitality the reception went out of their way we stayed here for two nights and it was such a memorable experience.

Great Experience!! A must visit- Spacious rooms and toilets. Good service. Close proximity to haram 😊 Wonderful and large variety of food in buffet.

I don’t know how this hotel has a 4.5 stars.. this was so expensive for finding mold in the bathrooms (video and picture) the bed is not comfortable, there is a beep sound in every floor and they don’t turn off at night time ( video). And when we asked them to turn off they said it’s like this and they can’t do nothing. It beeps every 10-20 seconds.. you can’t sleep.. Also the windows are so dirty that you can’t see anything outside ( picture).. the minimum you should keep are things cleaned.. the safe was also locked and not working, so we didn’t want housekeeping since we had our passports in the room.. we contacted them, they could not fix and that’s it.. it’s broken. The inclusive dinner does not even include soda.. only water! I have nothing good to say. Even the short distance is not worth the money they charge. There are better options around. Sanitary and health services should be contacted for these molds.. True 5 star hotels would never be like this one. This hotel needs urgent updates.. And do you know what answer you get from them? Literally nothing! Any hotel that is 5 star would make sure things like these are working and cleaned and would at minimum provide 5 star Costumer service. I don’t know how they have a license to advertise they are 5 star hotel. That should be illegal Read less

First I have to mention that The receptionist of this hotel Rania was the nicest receptionist I have ever encountered at a hotel. She was always friendly and asked how our stay was going every time we walked in the door. She also was able to recommend places to get any type of meal that we needed as well. Second this is a luxurious hotel! It’s clean and has a lot of comfort items to make you feel at home. I was in town for a stressful event and coming back to this hotel’s room was very peaceful.

This hotel has a beautiful lobby and restaurant. The restaurant has a great mini breakfast buffet for kids too. The kids loved it. Special shout out to Mr Faizan who was very courteous and helpful at all times. However compared to the money being paid, the rooms are small and the bathroom even smaller. The shower area is so small that a claustrophobic person would never get in there. The bathroom really needs working on considering the fact that this is a 5 star hotel. And the service isn't great. They have so many guests checking in every day and I guess this makes them indifferent or too tired to be hospitable to each guest. Read less

The location is great. The hotel has two entrances one to the Haram with special entrance and the other to the street where you find taxis are waiting you. All service was top notch. Quadruple room with Kaaba view was spacious and tidy with most essentials provided for a family of 5. The bed is big, I loved it the most. Breakfast food was incredible with variety of choices; top management was also around to make sure everything was okay. I would like to thank Mr. Rakan at the reception desk for his welcoming and attitude. Loved our stay here! Read less

Very convenient location close to Haram, very helpful and friendly staff, we were given Haram faced room without any extra charges a lovely view. Room are big and especially the luggage box room is very handy as it keeps your room clear of suitcases. Bath and toilets are very clean and spacious. Only one area where there is room for improvement. The breakfast buffet has plenty of different items but if you are from South Asian subcontinent, then you will feel disappointed because mainly the dishes are either Arabic and some European. Also when it was busy, there was problem to find cutlery like teaspoons resulting in cold tea. Overall a very good hotel and recommended to visit again. Read less

Stayed here in 2017, was travelling with elderly parents to perform Umrah. The hotel was just brilliant, the location was around 300 yards from the Haram and ideal for the elderly travelling to and from the Haram performing the Umrah Rituals. The cleanliness of the accommodation and facilities were next to none. We had a room facing the Kabbah, what an amazing sight that was! The buffet breakfast, “Well what can I say! The variety was amazing. I don’t think I could identify all the dishes they were so plentiful. If shopping is a key feature of you pilgrim then rest assured you won’t get a better hotel than this! The back exit goes straight into the clock tower mall. Hopefully will be blessed to visit again soon! Read less

4 star hotel claiming 5 star. Reception Service is not exemplary, have to wait till 4 o clock although booking and advance payment has been paid. Rooms are clean and washrooms are OK.

One major thing that ruined this hotel for me was the air conditioning. My mum, dad and I got really sick. it seems as if they don’t regularly clean and dust kept coming out of the filter.

Terrible Experience – Not a 5-Star Hotel! Do not be fooled by the 5-star rating — this hotel is barely a 3-star at best. Our first room had visible mould, a broken shower and bathtub, filthy carpets, and layers of dust and dirt everywhere. We requested a room change, but the second room had the exact same issues. The third room was even worse — it started to smell like sewage shortly after we checked in. The entire hotel is extremely outdated, with rooms that look like they haven’t been renovated since the 1980s. This is nowhere near the standard you’d expect from a supposed 5-star establishment. To make matters worse, Alharam Travel (Romford Road, London) changed our hotel last minute — not once, but twice — and placed us in this awful place. Completely unacceptable and disappointing from both the hotel and the travel agency. Avoid at all costs. Read less

Love the hotel. Fantastic location. The size of the room is brilliant as well. Breakfast is mid. The main issue is the lifts. They take too long when there is a lot of people. No algorithm just stops at every single floor. Annoyingly 1 or 2 of the lifts are just for service too. Read less

Title: Conveniently Located Hotel with Some Areas for Improvement - Frontel Madinah I recently stayed at Frontel Madinah during my visit to the holy city of Madinah, and overall, it was a decent experience. The hotel boasts a fantastic location, being near the iconic Masjid Nabawi, which made it very convenient for attending prayers and exploring the city. However, I must admit that the first impression of the hotel was slightly underwhelming. The elevator was disappointingly slow, leading to some frustrating wait times during peak hours. Additionally, the elevator itself was quite cramped, which could be uncomfortable, especially for guests with mobility concerns. One of the highlights of my stay was the food selection offered during breakfast and lunch. While not exceptional, the choices were satisfactory, and the quality was decent enough to start the day with a good meal. I especially enjoyed the Dacidoff coffee sachet provided in the room, which was a delightful touch. Speaking of the rooms, I found them to be quite pleasant overall. The mattress was comfortable, providing a good night's sleep, and I was pleased to find two pillows for each occupant, allowing for personalized comfort. The housekeeping staff was friendly and attentive, ensuring that the rooms were kept tidy and well-maintained throughout our stay. Another delightful aspect of Frontel Madinah was its proximity to a Baskin Robbins cafe near the reception area. It was a perfect treat for a quick dessert after a day of exploring the city or attending prayers. Additionally, the hotel's location also allowed easy access to nearby shopping areas, which was a bonus for those who wanted to indulge in some retail therapy. In conclusion, Frontel Madinah is a hotel with both pros and cons. While its location near Masjid Nabawi and friendly housekeeping staff are definite assets, there are areas that need improvement, such as the slow and cramped elevator. Despite some shortcomings, I would consider staying here again in the future, given its convenience and the overall satisfactory experience during my visit. Read less

All are good. Except one thing is harmful. I was staying in this hotel junior suite room 811 , stay date 28th July 2023. As per picture, you guys can see there is a steel peice has been fixed on the pillar behind the bed. My son was sleeping on bed , during he sleep he turned his hands towards another direction and touched this steel piece, which results cuts on his hands due to this steel decoration peice has sharp edges. You guys can see the blood on the bed of my son. I informed Mr. Khaled the duty manager, they just said one thing. We apologise for this, we will give you discount on your next visit.

An excellent choice if you are looking for a hotel which is very close to Al Haram. The hotel is reasonably clean and the staff are friendly and service is very good . The beds are good but the extra bed was not that comfortable. The breakfast restaurant was packed with many guests even at the start time of the breakfast at 6 am ! Due to the crowds , you don’t feel comfortable as some one could take your table while you’re bring your food. However, the breakfast was very good and there were many varieties. Read less

We booked a family room with 4 beds and only got two. We had to ask for two more beds which took another 2 hours and even then they were uncomfortable. The carpets were very old, some of the sockets didn't work, the wallpaper was falling off and the service was very poor. The only reason we evenrated it 2 stars was because of its location and convenience. I do no5 recommend this hotel and you should sav3 your money for a better hotel. Read less

Though the place is good but you can not call it a five star hotel in any sense. Double bedroom is actually consist of two single beds joined together.

The breakfast is awesome consisting of different yogurts, fresh fruits, fresh juices, breads and buns, muffins, donuts, omelets, scrambled eggs, falafel, one main dish, rice, salads, different types of cheese slices and many more.
