All at this place is old and used and dusty. And this had nothing to do with the sandstorm we had. If it was not a Hilton, I might have forgiven them... but I expected something else. The food is not good either. There was always the feeling of 'Will I be fine afterwards?'. History proved I was, however if... More

Good location, great service, very comfortable bed and very helpful staff. Good breakfast but the evening buffet was poor, cold food - go outside to eat. Reception staff are very friendly but not very familiar with locations in Riyadh. Overall a good experience - small improvement could make it a lot better

Service if generally pleasant despite some personnel not speaking English. The food is pleasant too but expensive, but less overpriced than other chain hotels. The rooms are all 100% garden Inn, so no surprises there except that the ecological lightbulbs mean the place is shrouded in darkness. Good value for collecting HHonors points. Sports center is OK, some of the... More

This is my third visit to the Hilton Garden Inn and as with my other visits I left the hotel very satisfied. The hotel is very smart and contemporary and has all the facilities you would expect from a four star hotel. It is very orientated towards business which is just what I wanted as I was in Riyadh on... More

At >220 USD per night (april 2012) for a very average room I consider the price to be quite steep for the value offered. What is good about the hotel: some of the staff were very helpful in making arrangements for diner, the central dining room and lobby have a good setup. Also the small convenience store is quite handy.... More
