A “beautiful” trip back in time!
Very well-preserved classic/vintage hotel. Please don’t refurbish it to to the tasteless modern decor. Very comfy and homey. Rooms are spacious (we had 2 connecting rooms). I had some issues that need to be enhanced: central/reception don’t pick up calls at many times, the army of mosquitos in the outdoor cafe, TV needs an upgrade, and my A/C was stuck on one very cold temperature (informed them about it but nothing happened).

My 1st Intercon Disappointment
I am surprised that this Intercon is not a wow hotel. 1) i was overcharged I booked for SR660 per night but ended up paying SR790 per night 2) wifi is weak in the 1st floor 3) buffet menu is the same everyday And the room service menu has not much to offer and slow 4) shower not working 5) pool is under maintenance 6) location is 15mins highway driving to the city center The good side is 1) staff are friendly 2) security is tight 3) hotel is clean 4) big parking place

A great place to stay in Taif
We really enjoyed our stay at the hotel. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Hospitality was great. Check-in and check-out was great. The only negative was the Neibourhood. There is really nothing nearby for those without a car. Abdul and Tasneem Majid

not impressed
RECEPTION: were rude. I attempted check in the staff member told to go to his fellow staff just next to bcz his place was only to "club members". 2nd guy also relayed us to a 3rd guy who ended his ''welcoming'' to us by presenting us the usual form & military order to fill in signature & mobile number (no use of any kind words ''please,..'', ) never bothered with our luggage. We asked our luggage be brought to room, where he asked US if concierge there or not. Seeing how things were, we preferred to wait for concierge & instruct him which room to go. ROOM: reserved standard non-smoking , find out very smoking room! smell of smoke kept lurking for whole time. More, upon our arrival even found cigarette ashes from previous smoker in bathroom ashtray. Complained to reception & offered no apology to this, Said they will send housekeeping but had to call after the housekeeping ourselves bcz no one bothered. Also asked reception to find us another room where said that they will check and call back. Never called back, although noticed afterwards there was sign on the entrance of hotel saying ''there are vacant rooms. STAFF: Exception of the staff at the reception, I want to note that the concierge guys, the housekeeping guides, and the staff at the restaurant were helpful, presentable and very nice. Other than that, the reception was the worst unwelcoming place ever. Rude and arrogant people. One exception is a man there who made the check-out for us did his job as he should.
