This was my first stay at this hotel. I had reserved a room with a direct view of the Kaaba. The room itself was spacious, very clean, and beautifully maintained. The view was truly breathtaking. However, there were several major drawbacks during my stay. The elevators were extremely overcrowded and insufficient for the number of guests. I often had to wait at least 30 minutes each time I needed to go up or down, especially during prayer times. Additionally, the hotel’s mosque was located very far from the rooms, requiring a long and tiring walk. The lobby was constantly overcrowded because the hotel has a direct entrance to the Haram, attracting many people who were not guests at the hotel, making it chaotic at all times. One serious issue was the hygiene at the restaurant. Although the food quality was good, the cleanliness was unacceptable. When ordering tea, they bring a teapot along with a large cup of warm milk. Often, milk is left over. Shockingly, I witnessed the staff collecting leftover milk from guests’ cups into a separate container to reuse it for other guests. I personally saw this happen, and it was extremely unhygienic and disturbing. Because of these reasons, despite the beautiful view and room quality, I will not consider staying at this hotel again

I had specifically booked this trip for my parents as they were going on a holy journey ….yet they were given an accessible room when I had not booked that…there was no partition in the shower area and the entire bathroom was a slipping hazard. This was extremely disappointing given the amount I was charged. Absolutely unacceptable from a brand like swissotel
