Al Ghariyah Vacations from $416

Luxurious, clean place close to the mall and the islands

My stay at the hotel was generally good. The facility itself is as golden and polished as advertised—comparable to a luxury hotel in both appearance and ambiance. I checked in late in the evening while the manager was busy closing out the day, surrounded by a stack of receipts. The tone was professional, though somewhat lukewarm. I stayed in the Urban Suite, which overlooks an empty lot and a partial view of the bay. The room featured shelves lined with coffee table books and a standard fruit basket (banana, apple, orange, and plum). The bed was easily the highlight of my stay—extremely comfortable and inviting. Unfortunately, I wasn’t able to enjoy the in-room coffee in the morning, as there was no milk provided for the Nespresso machine. I skipped the complimentary breakfast and went for a local restaurant. Just before checkout, I received a call from the front desk at 11:45 AM, asking if I needed help with my luggage and confirming if I was “still good for noon checkout.” While courteous, the timing and phrasing made me feel slightly rushed. All in all, while there were a few minor service hiccups , the facility is just as stunning as it appears online.

It was not a good view even though I paid extra 100 QR to have it!!!

Staff are extremely welcoming and pleasant. Service was great. Hotel landscaping is well kept. The hotel itself is looking a little dated compared to the photos but it’s not a deal breaker. We had the buffet breakfast and it was delicious. Highly recommend.

The accommodation was very nice & spacious.
