How can I get cheap hotels in Makkah?

Best tips to find a cheap hotel in Makkah

  1. If you're looking to travel to Makkah on a budget, you'll be happy to know that you can find hotels for as low as $130. Of course, that price is affected by amenities, star rating, and even the time of year you visit. At most, hotel prices can be as high as $405. Staying a short amount of time in Makkah is an effective way to reduce hotel costs.

  2. When you cut your vacation down to just a few days, you don't have to worry as much about hotel prices since you don't have that many nights to stay. For budget hotels in Makkah, 3 to 4 days should be all the nights you need. That's generally enough to enjoy the city's top attractions, though there's certainly enough to do to warrant a week-long trip.

  3. When booking cheap hotel rooms in Makkah, it's typically best to book about 3 weeks in advance. Book further in advance than that and you could be paying too much for your room, as hotels will often overestimate future demand. However, if you wait too long, you might find that the hotel has been completely booked.

  4. When you utilize search filters on Expedia, you'll be able to narrow down your results in a flash. These search filters cover a wide variety of factors you may be interested in when it comes to finding a cheap hotel in Makkah, including amenities such as Free Breakfast, 2-star rating, or proximity to local attractions. You can even set filters for price limits to ensure that all the displayed results are within your budget.

How much does a budget hotel in Makkah cost?

To find the cheapest budget hotels, be flexible with your dates—off-peak and mid-week stays are typically cheaper. Stretch your budget further by looking for hotels with free breakfast, free parking or free airport shuttles. Sort your search results by "Price: low to high" to see our lowest rates.
Which area of Makkah is best to stay in for cheap hotels?
For budget-conscious solo travellers seeking affordable hotels in Makkah, areas slightly further from the Grand Mosque, such as those along Ibrahim Al Khalil Road or in the vicinity of Jabal Omar, often provide more economical options. These locations typically offer lower prices than hotels directly overlooking the Kaaba.

While not directly adjacent to the Grand Mosque, these areas are generally well-connected by local shuttle services or are within a reasonable walking distance for solo travellers, particularly during off-peak times. Many budget-friendly hotels in these areas still offer comfortable, clean rooms, catering primarily to pilgrims looking for a practical base without the premium cost of a direct Haram view.
What are the top-rated cheap hotels for families in Makkah?
For families seeking top-rated budget-friendly hotels in Makkah, Le Meridien Makkah, Le Meridien Towers Makkah, and Elaf Ajyad Hotel are excellent options.

Le Meridien Makkah, a 3-star property with an 8.2 review score, provides free WiFi, complimentary toiletries, and free cribs, making it very accommodating for families.

When is the most affordable time to visit Makkah?
The most affordable time to visit Makkah is generally during the off-peak seasons, specifically outside of the Hajj pilgrimage and the month of Ramadan. Avoiding these peak times, which attract millions of pilgrims, can lead to significant savings on flights and accommodations.

For solo travellers, visiting between late November and early February (excluding the last ten days of Ramadan) often presents lower prices and fewer crowds, allowing for a more reflective and less hurried experience. During this period, hotel rates tend to be more competitive, and flight prices are typically lower compared to the intense demand of the pilgrimage seasons.

Families might find late spring or early autumn, outside of major school holidays, to be a good balance for affordability and comfortable weather. While temperatures can be warm, the reduced demand often translates to better deals on family-friendly hotels and easier access to the Grand Mosque.

What free activities should we do in Makkah?
Makkah offers several enriching free activities, particularly centreed around its spiritual significance, making it an ideal destination for budget-conscious solo travellers.

The primary free activity in Makkah is engaging in acts of worship at the Masjid al-Haram, the Grand Mosque. Solo travellers can spend countless hours performing circumambulation around the Kaaba (Tawaf), offering prayers, reading the Quran, and reflecting in this holiest of sites. The experience is deeply spiritual and entirely free.

Beyond the Grand Mosque, solo travellers can explore the vibrant local markets surrounding the Haram area, such as the bustling Souk al-Lail, without necessarily making purchases. These markets offer a glimpse into local life, culture, and traditional goods. Walking through the streets and observing the daily routines of pilgrims from around the world is an experience in itself, providing cultural immersion at no cost.

Another free activity is visiting the Jabal al-Nour (Mountain of Light), which houses the Hira Cave, where Prophet Muhammad received his first revelation. While the climb itself requires effort, reaching the summit offers panoramic views of Makkah and a profound sense of history, all without an admission fee.
Is it cheaper to book a Makkah hotel and flight package?
Booking a hotel and flight package on Expedia can be cheaper than booking flights and hotels separately. Bundling can lead to significant savings, especially for international travel or when booking well in advance. However, savings vary depending on factors like destination, travel dates, and availability, so it's wise to compare options. With access to over 300,000 hotels worldwide, Expedia makes it easy to build the perfect vacation package.
Can I cancel my budget hotel reservation on Expedia?
Many Expedia hotel reservations are refundable, provided that you cancel before the hotel's cancellation deadline. This is often within 24-48 hours of your scheduled arrival. Be sure to check your booking confirmation for the exact cancellation policy. For maximum flexibility, use Expedia's "Fully refundable property" filter during your search to find the right budget hotel in Makkah for you.
