“Better Than Expected”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 14 February 2012
1
person found this review helpful

Well you don't have to go on with the negative reviews.. yes the hotel is not perfect but I would highly recommend it because of lots of pros.
First before I checked in I sent them a mail asking for Air Port pick up and they recommend that I talk a taxi directly which I discover is much more convenient.
I was recognized and treated as Hilton Hhonors member even I didn't book through the Hilton.
The rooms are tidy, clean and really space-able comparing to a hotel with few feet from the Haram.
Check in was fine and easy .. yes I waited a little before going to the room but still this could be expected.

Food is tasty in the breakfast and I ordered room service as well.
The thing that everybody should recognize and appreciate that the hotel is dealing everyday with hundred and thousands of guests from all around the world checking in and out everyday.. its not an easy thing to manage... yet things can little bit improved.

The cons:

The noise either from inside due to the maintenance or from outside due to the construction in Omar mountain.
The room service is really slow.

Rather than this I was happy with my whole stay and definitely I would do it again.
I would like to make special thanks to Islam from the front desk team, and Mr. Sayed the guest service Manager.

and for all at Hilton Makkah.. thanks for making our stay very pleasant.

Room Tip: The higher the better.. Rooms facing haram are little bit smaller than the rooms with the city view

“Falling behind”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 7 February 2012

The hotel is a great choice. However, it is getting old but that's not the only case because they are renovating and adding new elevators to suit the no. of guests which is a good thing. We were staying on the renovated part which was so much better than the old one. The breakfast buffet is not good whatsoever. I have been staying at the Hilton for more than 5 years now and this yr I can feel the degrade especially in the breakfast which was top-notch both in service and variety. The service was not as good; one time the waiter actually threw us the service! There are other good waiters who are trying their best but still the hotel capacity is more than their capabilities. The food variety and taste is not that good as well. And the new breakfast Hall "El Noor" is a drawback both setting and service! However, the older halls "El Fayhaa" I guess and the one on the seventh floor have a spectacular view of the Haram and a very good setting. Also, the housekeeping were extremely polite and friendly. And, the new range of elevators are a major plus for the hotel. Finally, the renovation is surely essential and so far the renovation that concerns the rooms and the elevators was a true success!

“Spiritual”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 3 February 2012

people found this review helpful

According to its location at the door of Masjed Haram in Mecca, I was expected a little in cleaning, service and staff care ( huge numbers of Hajs and Muatamireen ) BUT amazingly it was one of my best times I spent in an extraordinary spiritual experience in Holly Mecca, all because of Hilton.
Location, cleanness, staff, food .....all are excellent.
Thank you Mr. Muhammed Rafi who made our stay as nice as his attitde and Mr. Aziz Awlya for post stay care and mail.
