Guest Reviews

• Ricky (8/5): - gpood value for dollar but almost impossible to get in and out of the place by taxi which is only transport in Riyadh neighborhood is beat, ghetto but safe ghetto, for a a business travler tough due to traffic
• Rajesh (4/5): - Property is in very bad location, cleaning was very bad, no parking, hospitality very poor
• Verified traveler (6/5): - 予約が入っていないと言われ、15分以上も待たされた。こちらが悪いような言われ方をしたが、ホテル側の予約の管理が悪いだけで非常に迷惑した。部屋は普通で写真ほどきれいではない。立地は良いが、値段は高めと感じた。
• Soeren (2/5): Dårligt Hotel - Hotellet er slidt og beskidt. Der står at hotellet har 2 restauranter de har ikke nogen restaurant. Morgenmaden er elendig stort set kun toastbrød på trods af at der hænger nogle billeder af lækker morgenmad forskellige steder på hotellet.vi betalte 3500 kr. for 4 overnatninger alt for dyrt
• Graham (4/5): - Not good. No AC, no hot water. Internet pretty good though.
• Lakshminarayan (2/5): Do not stay - Bad condition hotel. Everything is old and poorly maintained. The rooms and corridors stink.
• Valeria (4/5): - Non ci hanno mai pulito la camera, la struttura è vecchia si salva solo il personale molto gentile.Nella zona non ci sono ristoranti ma è molto trafficata
• ioseph (4/5): - Hotel datato, personale molto cordiale e disponibile, cercano di sopperire alle mancanze dell’hotel ma la struttura non lo consente, bagno datato e provenivano cattivi odori dagli scarichi, moquette datata come tutto il resto
• Laura (6/5): - Positives: easy walk to historical district, National Museum, good supermarket and mall about 2 blocks away. Breakfast was room service only as buffet was closed. Fridge in very large room. Quiet at night. Friendly staff. Negatives: Gym/pool/spa closed to women - no notice online or when checking in. No women allowed in cafe. Breakfast was very limited (pita, eggs, jam, cheese, coffee/tea). Hardest bed I’ve ever slept on. Area is kind of trashy. Terrible water pressure and luke warm at best.
• Thierry (6/5): Très bien placé pour visiter - Hôtel vieillot mais très bien situé pour visiter à pied le Riyadh historique. Les chambres sont très grandes. Supermarché à côté.
• Verified traveler (8/5): - OLD room furnitures but big room.
• PEI CHI (6/5): - internet is good, location is good
• Antoine (2/5): avoid this hotel. Its not worth the money - This hotel needs to be stripped and rebuild. Smoke smoke smoke smoke smoke in everything. Spent 1 night, woke up sick, dizzy and soar throat of the smoke infuzed elements of the room. Bed, couch, curtains, wallpaper, carpet. All smoke. Bathroom is outdated, and when you shower all is wet.
• Parvez (8/5): - Good hotel in low budget.. Market location good for shopaholic people.. Room service is not upto the mark and i dont blame the employee for this...
• Chamoun (4/5): - There is no parking , you may struggle for hour to find a parking for your car after a long day of work , about the staff they are good
• Jocelyn (8/5): Thumbs up - A good place to stay if you are on a business trip
• Concered (2/5): - There are not running a hotel. There is no customer service culture. It all about admission and release.
• Ayshah (8/5): - للاسف الفندق فى منطقه قديمه ولايصلح للعائلات لوجود العماله الوافده بالمنطقه
• hashim (6/5): سئ للغايه - موقعرالفندق غير مناسب حيث المنطقة غير نظيفة و غير صحيه بالاضافه الى عدم وجود مواقف خاصة بسيارات النزلاء و كذلك اثاث الغرف غير نظيف وتنبعث منه روائح كريهه جدا و بوفيه الافطار سئ جدا ولايعتبر بوفيه في الاساس
• Hesham (8/5): - Good ambiance alhamdulillah
• Mustafa (4/5): Tulip - Check in took some time. Room size are excellent, but the furniture are old and dirty. Room service and restaurant are very poor. Breakfast is below than basic.
• Verified traveler (8/5): فندق جميل ورخيص لمن يذهب إليه ويتحرك بالتاكسي - فندق رائع عيبه في المواقف
• ساري (10/5): - ممتازة مقارنة بالسعر ولكن يصعب توفر مواقف السيارات في أوقات الذروة وتتوفر المواقف من بعد صلاة الظهر إلى صلاة العصر وفي المساء من بعد الساعة 11 الفطور مجاني بوفية مفتوح يتوفر مسبح ونادي رياضي الفندق وسط أسواق شعبية
• J (6/5): Utilitarian - Junior suite, nice, Not expensive... Outdated furniture, but okay. Bed was hard, but slept well. Neighborhood was noisy well into the night, but great for shopping, but nowhere to park. Awful traffic but good restaurants. Pool, sauna, steam room were nice but gym opens at 1:30 p.m.? Not good at all. Actually, really bad. Food was great.
• irfan (8/5): Nice place middle of the xity - Easy access to all places in Riyadh ... Staff are good except vegitarian foos
• Verified traveler (2/5): فندق فاشل .. ولا أنصح بالحجز فيه - كانت سيئة .. تكييف الغرف رديء، عدم وجود مواقف السيارات ، يقع الفندق في موقع يعج بالعمالة وفوق سوق شعبي للإلكترونيات .. كثير من وصف حجزك عبر الموقع غير صحيح في الواقع ..
• Verified traveler (6/5): Customer service is key, unfortunately not here. - Front desk refused to accept that I had made this reservation on Hotels.com. He continued to insist that I had made the reservation through expedia, which I didn't. He became more and more irate. He refused to accept that breakfast was included in the reservation. He told me that I would have to pay 200 Saudi Riyals (about 50 USD) to have breakfast brought to my room, because the restaurant was closed due to Ramadan, understood, but Hotels in Saudi Arabia keep their kitchens open, the menu in my room said room service would cost 20 riyals for delivery. I noticed a variety of issues, as follows: the bed smelled like body odour. The bathroom was not stocked with shampoo, soap, and the electrical outlets weren't working. No hot water boiler, no tea or coffee. Fruit juices in the refrigerator were expired. Reported this to the clerk; I walked away from his yelling. Tried to check out early, asked for a refund and he refused. He tried to charge me for cookies in the room, but since there was no breakfast, I told him I would not pay for cookies. I persisted to request my refund and he yelled at me, being very dismissive. I demanded to speak to the manager but he refused. He threatened to call the police. I told him to call the police. The manager(s) showed up. They were helpful and kind. No refund, they did switch me to a suite.
• Riyad (8/5): - good hotel, good food and nice staff, the location is not so good, also the hotel havn't it's own parkings
• MENG-CHIH (6/5): 住宿經驗 - 該飯店所在位置周邊有餐廳, 3C商品--含電腦維修, 超市等一應俱全, 對於商務旅客非常適合, 且即便是單人房, 有獨立客廳和臥室, 空間均有6坪左右, 但wifi於尖峰時間有信號微弱問題~如果對飯店品質要求不高的人,非常適合～！
• Rashed (2/5): bad location - Bad experience crowded area no parking pad smell
• Verified traveler (2/5): not a place to stay unless you are hopeless - not a place to stay unless you are hopeless to find another
• nomad (6/5): Short Hop Stay - I arrived at 1AM and left at 9 AM. I just needed a somewhere clean to put my head down for the night - this place was cheap and cheerful
• Verified traveler (6/5): Dr - Noisy not comfortable
• SULAIMAN (10/5): Nice hotel , good facilities like WIFI , Breakfast - The staff is very cooperating Hotel's location in a very crowded area
• Prabhu (2/5): Very Bad - Poor Room Quality...No service..Even they do not get you water to drink...Staff only speaks Arabic...No English...This will be my first and last in Any Tulip Brand hotel in the Middle East.
• Prashant (2/5): Bad hotel with extremely rude front desk - This is the worst hotel I have ever stayed in. Starting from the customer service, room cleanliness, food and room service is pathetic. I booked a non smoking room, however was given a smoking room which had such a bad smell that my clothes started to smell. The washroom leaked had a bad smell, it stings. The breakfast and the food is so bad that if you eat it for few days I bet you will feel sick. The person named Kamal at the front desk is worst front desk person I have came across, lacks basics of customer service and extremely rude. Overall I was counting my days to get out of this hell hotel and I vouch never to stay in this hotel again.
• Thomas (6/5): Nothing special...but quite OK - I got an upgrate to a 3 bedroom suite, since they didn't have the Standard room I book through hotels.com not available anymore. With Haman, pool and fitness as business hotel suitable after a hard working day. Also the "sights" of Riyadh are just around the corner. Quite far away from the airport, but offered shuttle is OK pricewise.
• Hifzi Ghaith (8/5): Nice but difficult to be reached - 2 points to be considered: 1- It is very rare to find a taxi who accept to take you there. 2- The internet connection should be more efficient, as i tried to log in with given password but in vein.
• Hugo van Bl. (2/5): the worst hotel I have ever been - in one word: terrible! wrong place, wrong service. Rooms are not cleaned, beds are not done, towels are not changed. Airco does not work. Bad restaurant. A complete nightmare. Only the size of the rooms is quite big.
• Alan (2/5): Stay somewhere else - check out our review on trip advisor. you couldn't be arsed to look after me so i cant be bothered to let you know the list of things that were not right in you hotel in the 21st century.
• Hifzi Ghaith (10/5): Happy and satisfied - Will come back again on my next trip
• Khaled (4/5): D - Its very crowded
• Verified traveler (2/5): Soooo Bad - 1. Lousy neighborhood 2. Dirty entrance and neighborhood. Bad odor when you enter. 3. Arrived and their sales people have not given the booking reference to the front desk though I booked well in advance. Had to shout on them and then the second day they did not apologist for their stupidity. 4. Pillows clean but weird smell as if washed with blue collar labors clothes. 5. Gym so bad with Arabic music at full volume as if you are in a disco 6. First day the room was not cleaned. I asked why they said you did not out the tag that the room should be cleaned. I can go on and on. In short do not stay there.
• Domenico (4/5): Don't Use - The Hotel is situated in the most bad area in Riyadh. No Parking, very dirty area, dangerous, really is very very bad.
• Verified traveler (6/5): Decent Hotel/Bad Location - My group was pretty pleased with the hotel overall. The service was adequate. The breakfast was good. However, the location is really bad. That is the only reason I wouldn't recommend it.
• Fatima (8/5): What you'd expect from a 3* hotel - Perfectly comfortable. Nothing fancy, but clean and adequate. Breakfast buffet was ok - the usual - an omelette station, breads, foul. Instant coffee only at the buffet which was a disappointment and no tea/coffee facilities in the rooms. But there is a café in the hotel where you can buy your own. Gym and health facilities are for men only. (I wish hotels.com specified this when describing the hotel facilities). Staff are courteous but don’t bother ask questions about things to see in the area, opening times for anything, other restaurants, or any other questions you might expect hotel staff to know the answer to (or at least offer to find out). This is still Saudi Arabia after all, where customer service is a concept in its infancy. Walking distance to the excellent National Museum, but in the centre of Balad (downtown), there are few restaurants, and even fewer with a family section. You have to go uptown for that - a 20-30min taxi ride for about 30 riyal. The price accurately reflects the location and standard of 3* hotels in Riyadh.
• Marc (2/5): To be avoided at all cost - I stayed at this hotel because every other business hotel was full. This hotel is out of the way in the south of Riyadh and it can take a full hour to get there from the Kingdom Tower. The hallways was dirty, with floor platters left lying around. I had to kill a huge coakroach in the bathroom. The bed was like sleeping on a board. And the sofa cushions have no spring left in them at all, making it very unconfortable. Avoid this hotel at all cost!
• Verified traveler (4/5): - this hotel is not for westerners. I was the only Non Middle Eastern guest. My Saudi military guide it is in a bad section of town.
• Ali (2/5): Very Bad Experience - 1- I waited 20 minutes for the hotel pick up from the hotel to arrive to the airport (i booked and paid for this service) 2- The driver wanted me to wait for another passengers from another flight to share the same car. I refused 3- The driver called the hotel and made me talk to them and finally we moved 4- Internet does not work in the room 5- I had to go to the business center which was filled with cigarretes in the ashtrays and on the floor
• Verified traveler (4/5): Out in the Woods - The accompanying photo on the web site was misleading. The hotel was on the far side of town, in the midst of a melting pot of various South Asian expat groups. If you're looking for multi-ethnicity and small shops selling everything under the sun, this is the hotel for you. As a business traveler meeting bankers downtown, the location was most unsuitable--too far from the action and too difficult to navigate. I spent more in taxis than on the hotel.
