The hotel is located on Shamnsan Mountain (or Dhaher Hemiar as per locals). The property is 10 minute away from the city and 20 minute from the airport. The surrounding area is safe and secured due to the hotel’s inspection gate and nearby embassies. Timeless and accurate services are provided by the hotel. Hygiene, comfort and attendance to the guests’... More

It is funny that the undisputable Nr. 1 hotel in Sanaa appears rather low on Tripadvisor. The hotel has a great view over the city, a huge outside and an inside pool, a decent spa, a large lobby and a good choice of dining options. Hygiene and Security seem to be top priorities.

I stayed at the Moevenpick for one week, and then switched to the Taj Sheba. The first and biggest turnoff was that anything not included in your room price is heinously overpriced. Breakfast is $27 for nothing special, and since the hotel is relatively far from everything else, there are no other options in the morning. If you want to... More

We can't find any hotel as good this hotel in Sana'a. It is new, clean, safe and plenty of facilities. The staff are friendly and command good English.

The Moevenpick Sana'a is the best hotel available in Sana'a. If it was in any other city, it would be just another business hotel - but in Sana'a, it stands out among the alternatives. The rooms and bathrooms are clean, the showers are functioning very well, and throughout the hotel, wireless internet is available (and functions well most of the... More

If you go to Sana'a and you do not care about location than the Moevenpick is the best hotel. Up on a mountain accross the street from the British Embassy it provides 4-5 stars service and rooms. Rooms are very nice and clean and the staff is always friendly. Internet connection is stable and the restaurants serve nice food. The... More

Decent hotel if you are visiting Yemen for business purposes although it obviously doesn't give you the "true" taste of Sana'a! Rooms are clean and comfortable. Views from rooms are impressive. Location is away from the city, up on a hillside close to Embassies. Good gym and pool facilities. Restaurants seemed a little pricey.

Hotel is likely the best in Sana'a from facility/amenities standpoint. It is on the outer skirts of the city so it is not very accessible to those wanting to explore the old city. Rooms were clean and service was above average (but very good for a hotel in Sana'a). Would be an excellent hotel for business travel in Yemen.

We stayed here for 2 nights in January 2006. It had just opened then and not everything was ready yet. I was quite happy with the standard of the hotel, I think it was on par with international standards for Movenpick. It was nice to come back here after a long day exploring Sanaa. It is also walking distance to... More
