9.2/10 Wonderful! (93 reviews)
Absolutely wonderful stay at Peninsula Worth! We stayed for 4 days and truly loved everything about our experience. From the friendly and helpful staff to the clean, comfortable rooms and good food, everything was excellent. We honestly have no complaints!
The location was the highlight for us, just a 3–4 minute walk to Masjid an-Nabawi, which made visiting the mosque incredibly convenient, especially with our family.
We loved the hotel, the location, and the overall experience. We will definitely be returning on our next visit to Madinah! Insha Allah
