Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
This is a very unique property. It’s very opulent, but more of a 1980s sense of opulence in that there is gold decorations everywhere. It’s in line with what a Saudi prince might expect. In fact, Saudi royalty has stated there. It’s very clean, but the showers are a bit dated. The biggest thing is that it is very quiet. We barely saw other guests. If you stay during off season, or there are no events in town, like F1. The staff are very nice. I enjoyed my stay here as it is does spoil you, but this isn’t a modern hotel.

The hotel is undeniably beautiful, with stunning architectural design and impressive attention to detail. However, the bathrooms had a very unpleasant odour that the hotel was unable to resolve during our stay. The swimming pool area was disappointing old, poorly maintained, and in need of renovation. The service there was also very poor. No inspection, no service and very unfriendly Breakfast I was served by Elaine, who was absolutely wonderful and attentive, but overall the breakfast quality did not meet the standards expected from a hotel of this level. Room service was satisfactory, and the reception team were quick and helpful. The location is decent.generally the hotel was clean

Luxurious experience

We had the best experience with high class service all around. This hotel has some amazing views of the red sea. The room looked magnificent and luxurious all facilities in the hotel were luxurious and the hotel atmosphere was very quiet and relaxing with pleasant smell all around the hotel. The hospitality was great and the whole concierge team are very friendly, professional and very welcoming. It gives me great pleasure to mention the names and give special thanks to some of the concierge team who made our stay very special, my personal concierge Shahadat Hussein who made sure our stay was as comfortable at it was and thanks to Mohamed Hussein and Hassan who were the politest door men I have met at any hotel, they were very welcoming, friendly and happy to offer any kind of help. And many thanks to the receptionists and the whole team who made our stay memorable. This was actually the first part of our honeymoon and I am so proud to have chosen this hotel.

The room is large, the bed is comfortable, but there is a smell of sewage coming from the bathroom, which forced me to change the room, even when I change the room there were some smell. Also I had to wait for a while to do the check out, there isn’t any one at the reception.
