Beautiful hotel with fabulous architecture. Comfortable rooms, although a chair of the correct height for the desk would be useful! Excellent restaurant and friendly staff. Sometimes the restaurant staff got a little confused with our drinks order, and on two occasions we had to chase up and had almost finished eating by the time the drinks did arrive.

We stayed here on a business trip and the hotel does claim to be 5 star, but not truly is. I would not recommend it as a value for money, it is overpriced....but you have no other choice than this if you are in Al-Ahsa. The restaurant and food quality is really good.

Poor service, slow checkin and checkout. Room spacious, bed comfy, but beware of bldg construction on main street, they start drilling at 6 a.m. Shower small and amenities poor. Pool is nice but gym is seriously aging and needs maintenance. Some security/fire alarms buttons are removed... Overall services are poor at all levels. I doubt that competition does better in...

After about 2 weeks staying here, my "normal" expenses (breakfast, dinner, laundry, no room service) totaled around 15,500SAR or just over $4,000.
