Reviews and Ratings
I had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The rooms offer a beautiful view of the sea, are exceptionally clean, and provide an open seating area for a breath of fresh air. The service, overall friendly and welcoming, exceeded expectations with thoughtful surprises. However, there was a slight arrogance from one staff member. The extraordinary location was complemented by a supportive and great team, ideal for a perfect balcony sea-view experience. Despite average dining options, the delicious food and great service made up for it. The facilities, including a swimming pool and sauna, were top-notch. Overall, a great value for a memorable stay.
My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The location was excellent, right on the corniche and close to everything, but the room was a bit small for two people and lacked soundproofing. The service was friendly overall, though not very supportive when I needed to order food from outside.
I couldn't have asked for more in Al-khobar city. The rooms were clean and spacious with a good view. The staff were really normal, but the service was available to solve my problems as transport to Bahrain at my convenience time. The location is great as it's right on the cornice and next to the quiet part of corniche road. The dining was fantastic, and the facilities were top-notch.
