As noted by many other reviewers, this is a good quality hotel that is conveniently located near the Saudi Armed Forces headquarters. The fitness center was particularly good. The Shogun restaurant was entertaining though pricey, the Italian restaurant was average and the buffet restaurant was good value for money. Breakfast was high quality in the buffet restaurant as well. I... More

I stayed in this hotel a couple of nights in a suite. On the whole, the hotel is comfortable, well-equipped, with a good range of amenities in the bathroom (also shampoo and soap of good quality). House keeping is average because they don't carry out a full cleaning every day. Laundry offers a good service at a reasonable price. Drinking... More

Dinner one night in the Italian restaurant was very pleasant but nothing exceptional. Reception was a bit hit and miss and lacked that sense of efficiency and wanting to help. Overall good value for... More

The hotel is comfortable, the service offered is substantial and the art deco walls on the second floor where the restaurant, etc. are... More

Hotel markets a fabulous pool plus a very well equipped gym but "forgets" the small detail that facilities are exclusively for men! The so called "female fitness center" is a windowless closet with an ear bursting fan to bring in some air. Gym equippment seems to be gathered from the city dump. AND you have to ask reception to open... More

The location is convienant for conducting business in Riyadh. They have a number of excellent meeting rooms. There are also three resturants in the hotel. They gym is also good. There is not many shops near the hotel however, there is a small shopping center about 5-10 walks near the hotel.
