Makkah Towers

10/10 Excellent

"We had a wonderful stay in Makkah Towers. Check in was very smooth. We were allowed check in several hours earlier. The room was very spacious. Mr Ziyad Nujoom at the reception desk was very helpful. I would highly recommend Makkah Towers."

Makkah Clock Royal Tower, A Fairmont Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Very very good"

Swissôtel Makkah

10/10 Excellent

"Everything is very good"

Makarem Ajyad Makkah Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Clean, spacious room. Great location. Few minutes walk to Haram. 6 lifts. Very quick to go up or down. The only downside is no daily room cleaning service. Despite requests, they come only when they want. Since most of the time, we stay at Haram, it really doesn’t bother us if no daily room cleaning service. We will come back again after few days in Madinah. Location wise it’s best."

Mövenpick Hotel & Residence Hajar Tower Makkah

10/10 Excellent

"Everything is perfect"

Jabal Omar Marriott Hotel, Makkah

10/10 Excellent

"Rooms are nice and clean. Staff is cooperative."
