It would have been a 5 star rating had the check-in process been smoother. Check-in took forever and it was slow. Other than that, room is very nice and clean for a quick 6 hour stay. It’s essentially in the duty free area so we can get water and snacks easily.
this was a lovely stay easy in transit of the airport no passport control security check when you arrive
the room was nice and cold, very clean and quiet. lovely staff at the reception and in the hotel. easy and quick check in was in room in 3 minutes. no idea how people could ever give a negative feedback about this place. would def stay again hopefully soon on another stop and journey. thank you for your kindness
I found it quite comfortable place. The staff was very cordial especially the manager. Room was clean and spacious. I booked a room with two beds which was good for me, wife & two kids. Two minor issues there is currently no internet & TV cable but they r working on it. However since we want to have some sleep before our next flight it didn’t matter for me & wife but our kids after their sleep want to watch & get entertained so internet could be definitely an issue for kids. I highly recommend for transit travelers.

Hotel location is great. Room did not have a window. There was an office desk but no office chair. Bathroom was very damp and bugs were flying around. supplies were only for one person while we were two checked in.

cavelike experience. They couldn't confirm reservation, so, they put us in a room without windows at the back of the hotel. They didn't give us a key. It was a somewhat dismal experience, but it was inside the clean area of the airport and a few hours sleep was very good.
The hotel itself was comfortable and well equipped for long layovers however I was charged upon arrival after already paying for my booking and it ruined my experience altogether

Super-convenient location, but the staff really needs to be trained on how to be courteous--their attitude is truly appalling. Also, hijacking the boarding pass until the key is returned is a really petty and insulting thing to do. As for the room, it did not have a desk chair and there was a big stain on the bed cover. The price is not justified for the facilities and staff; it's just very convenient for transfers.
It was a decent hotel, no windows because it's inside the airport. Very convenient for long layovers but the man at check in was so rude. First, he wasn't there and I asked the other man who ran the lounge at the same site when he would be back. I got fuzzy answers such as "soon". When he didn't get back soon soon I got frustrated and demanded to know where he was and when he would be there. The man finally walked across the lobby to a windowless office and knocked on the door repeatedly. The man who was supposed to be at reception was inside doing who knows what, but not his job. He was mad that he was disturbed and was extremely rude to me. He wanted to turn me a way for an additional 2 hours, which was ridiculous because I was only staying in the hotel for about 8 hours. He was very difficult to work with and extremely grumpy. He also mislabeled my key card deposit. The people in the morning at the desk were much more responsive and friendly even though they had a difficult time finding my keycard deposit because it had been mislabeled by the man the night before. Because I had such a difficult time with the first man, I thought about giving this a one-star review, but the hotel was nice enough and it was super convenient for a long layover.
The main point to keep in mind is that the hotel is airside. To be fair they do highlight this in their description.
My flight was at 8 am and I wanted to use the hotel before the flight and would have paid a little more for 8 hours instead of 6 if allowed. However once at the airport, I was told that I could not cross the barriers where you scan your boarding pass before 6 hours prior to the flight (this varies from airport to airport. This is for Jeddah). I was however able to scan in around 12:45, i.e a bit over 7 hours. So I managed to get immigration and security done and make use of the 6 hours I had paid for. Just about. It helped that I had a boarding pass from online check in and no checked in luggage. If you are having to check in at the counter it could be more complicated. If you are already in transit in the airside area, it is not a problem.
The hotel itself is sparkling, just beside terminal 1 gates and very well maintained. It is pretty big and in the early morning, I did get a bit lost as I got out of my room and couldn't remember which side I came in from! A bit more of signage towards the stairs/lifts would have helped. In the night a member of staff accompanied me to the room, so I admittedly did not pay so much attention to the directions from the desk.
It was convenient to get solid sleep just before the flight. Going straight into a landside hotel but getting up 3 hours early versus waiting to get in through gates and then sleeping, your choice.
