Reviews and Ratings
This hotel is truly prime for exploring the vibrant area, being close to the impressive Blue Mosque and convenient for an early morning start to the day. The rooms could use a better scent solution to enhance the experience, while the service stands out with various essential amenities available round the clock. Dining provides a taste of Italy, although there might be room for improvement. On the positive side, the location offers easy access to local attractions, yet the foul smell in the rooms is a notable downside.
The hotel is conveniently located near the Blue Mosque, making it easy to access the restaurant at 8 am. The rooms have an unpleasant smell from an ineffective spray, however, the overall stay was comfortable and enjoyable. The service provided includes 24-hour room service, package/parcel services, laundry, doctor on call, and shoe shine service. The pricing is reasonable for the value offered, though improvements in the room scent could enhance the experience.
The hotel is in a prime location, very close to the Blue Mosque and the Restaurant at 8 am. The rooms are clean and comfortable, but a slight issue with an unpleasant smell. The service is exceptional with 24-hour room service, package/parcel services, laundry, doctor on call, and shoe shine service available. The location is top-notch, offering easy access to key attractions. The dining experience is delightful, with a variety of local and international dishes. The facilities are modern and accommodating.
The hotel is ideally located very close to the Blue Mosque, making it convenient for exploring and grabbing a bite at the nearby restaurants. The rooms have an unpleasant smell of an ineffective spray, but the value for money is decent. The service is attentive and offers useful amenities like 24-hour room service and parcel services.
The hotel is perfectly situated, very close to the Blue Mosque and just a stone's throw away from the restaurant, making it an ideal spot. The rooms are a bit lacking, though, with an unpleasant smell that the useless spray couldn't mask. On the bright side, the service is top-notch with a range of convenient services like 24-hour room service, package/parcel services, laundry, doctor on call, and shoe shine service. However, the dining experience is not exceptional, even though they offer fresh and local products. Overall, a mixed bag with some strong positives and room for improvement.
