“Good hotel close to the Haram”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 29 January 2012
2
people found this review helpful

The hotel is located close to the Holy Mosque (about 5 min walk). The rooms are okay, but the washrooms seemed quite dated. The day we arrived, the hotel's parking was full! We had to drive around the area and park our car on a side street, which was a bit of an inconvenience. The breakfast was decent, but the dining room was too small and filled up very quickly. Also the omelette station was slow, even though the cook was making two omelettes at a time!

Overall, it was a good option close to the Holy Mosque.

“One of the best”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 10 November 2011

I stayed in that hotel three times. It's reasonable priced with good location (1 minute walk to the Haram). The hotel is slightly old but it still has the Intercontinental hotels standards. The room was spacious with comfortable bed and a nice TV. The bathroom was old but in good condition. The check in and Check out was slightly slower than expected especially for a Platinum Member.

In one occasion I asked for a in-room breakfast. I left the menu outside the door the night before. The breakfast was never delivered to the room

Overall a good hotel and I would stay there again.

Dar-Al Hijra Intercontinental hotel in medina is good hotel. staff are quite helpful, facilities are excellent. Most important thing is that it is very near to Masjid-e nabwi.

Room Tip: One side you can see some part of Uhud mountain...

We stayed here twice on our trips for Umrah and both times have had good experience. Staff is friendly and accommodating. Breakfast is delicious and the location of the hotel is within good walking distance to the Haram. Room service is awesome. The only downfall is that they don't have a restaurant serving lunch and dinners on regular basis other than the room service. They only serve lunch if a good number of guests purchase advanced lunches with their reservations at the time of booking the hotel. KFC and Hardees are within walking distance, but you get tired of eating fast foods...unless you eat at other hotels. Certainly would be nice to have a coffee shop for the jet lagers! (there is a small super market directly across from the hotel with limited food items such as milk and yoghurt)
One downfall to the room was that we had to request to change our room upon checking in because the rooms smelled like smoking, very annoying and hard to avoid. wish people would stop smoking or comply with the non-smoking policy :(

Room Tip: Some rooms smell like smoking. Unfortunately many people smoke and dont follow the non-smoking signs...

Hotel was very nice, all other staff was very cooperative and respectful, except their reservation manager Mr. Mohammad Ali, gave me a hard time, after staying for 10 nights in last ashra of Ramadan, want to extent 3 more nights, for the same price I offered, but he refused to give me, he wants double the price, then I had to leave the hotel and book 3 nights next door hotel.
