- faleh (10/5): THANK YOU ❤️ - Kindest Place in Erbil
I came to Erbil from Canada this month for a reason no one ever wants, a surgery for my mom. It was a hard time emotionally and mentally. But staying at this hotel was the best decision I made.
From the moment I arrived, I felt safe. I felt seen. The staff didn’t treat me like a guest, they treated me like family. They supported me in ways I didn’t even know I needed. Whether it was a kind word, a warm smile, or just checking in on me, they made me feel like I wasn’t alone.
I want to send all my love to Ranin, Nancy, and Abdullah. You three were my light. Ranin, your calm energy grounded me. Nancy, your warmth lifted me. Abdullah, your support meant a lot. You didn’t just do your jobs, you cared. And I’ll never forget that.
To the reception team, the restaurant staff, room service, and the cleaning department ❤️thank you. Every single one of you made this place feel like home. You turned a painful trip into something I’ll carry in my heart forever.
I’ll come back to Erbil one day. Not just for the city, but for you. ❤️ N/A

- Aya (1/5): Keine fünf Sterne, völlig überteuert. Leider eine große Enttäuschung - Nur die Lage!!! Keine fünf Sterne, völlig überteuert! Leider eine große Enttäuschung
Dieses Hotel hat uns in vielerlei Hinsicht enttäuscht. Der Service war unprofessionell, besonders in der Nachtschicht. Der Room Service war unzuverlässig, es wurden ständig Dinge vergessen, und insgesamt war das Personal wenig bemüht.
Die Sauberkeit war ein echtes Problem: Decken und Handtücher hatten jedes Mal Flecken. Hygiene scheint hier leider kein Standard zu sein. Für ein Hotel, das sich mit fünf Sternen präsentiert, ist das absolut inakzeptabel.
Auch das Frühstück war unterdurchschnittlich: trockene, nicht frisch gebackene Backwaren, oft fehlende Bestandteile wie Suppe! Insgesamt maximal eine 6 von 10.
Besonders ärgerlich ist das Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis: Dieses Hotel ist vollkommen überteuert. In Erbil gibt es deutlich bessere Hotels für denselben oder sogar günstigeren Preis.
Ich kann beim besten Willen nicht verstehen, wie dieses Haus fünf Sterne bekommen hat. Meiner Meinung nach wären drei Sterne realistisch, vier wären schon großzügig. Wer Wert auf Sauberkeit, Qualität und professionellen Service legt, sollte dieses Hotel unbedingt meiden.
- Hesta (9/5): -
- Omar (7/5): I personally wouldn't be back - The reception staff granted me an early check in, which was a kind gesture and made a great first impression.
The rooms are spacious and beautifully decorated, reflecting a lot of attention to design and comfort. There were a few downsides to my stay. Breakfast was underwhelming, the selection was very limited, and some items, like the donuts and croissants, didn’t feel fresh. The atmosphere in the breakfast area felt impersonal, with very little staff interaction. Another issue was that smoking was allowed in the breakfast area, which made the experience uncomfortable for non smokers.
Additionally, I asked if I could order food through Talabat, the answer was no,which was frustrating.I was told I had to order only from the hotel’s restaurant which was not only overpriced, but also didn’t offer the meal I wanted.

- Sana (10/5): Exceptional Stay – A New Favorite! - From the very first moment I stepped into the hotel, I was met with genuine warmth and professionalism. The check-in was seamless, the staff incredibly attentive, and I instantly felt like a valued guest rather than just a booking number. Every team member I encountered was friendly, accommodating, and truly passionate about providing the best possible service.
The room was a perfect blend of modern elegance and comfort – tastefully furnished, with high-quality amenities and thoughtful details that made my stay effortless. Absolutely nothing was missing; it was as if everything had been carefully curated to anticipate my needs. Spotlessly clean, fresh, and inviting, it truly felt like a home away from home.
The hotel itself is stunning, with stylish interiors and a rooftop that is simply a gem – the perfect place to unwind while enjoying the beautiful surroundings. The location could not be better: central, safe, and within walking distance to all major attractions, shops, and dining options.
I travel frequently, yet it is rare for me to be this impressed. This stay exceeded my expectations in every way. I left with the genuine feeling that I had discovered the place I want to return to again and again. My heartfelt thanks to the entire team – you have set a new standard for hospitality. I am already looking forward to my next visit!
