Top Riffa Hotel Reviews

Palette Luxury Marina View Formerly Happy Days Hotel

Palette Luxury Marina View Formerly Happy Days Hotel

8/10 Good
"It was a nice budget place. There were previous reviews claiming the sound from disco bothering in the night. I asked for, and was given a sound proof room. The bed was very comfortable. The room was clean although the carpet was old, which didn't bother me at all. Bathroom was clean tiled. The TV only had Arabaic channels and no free English channel except news. It's at the edge of Manama, if one walks out there is a long bazar with many restaurants, groceries stores and other shops. Once can use the laundry across the street which is cheaper than asking the hotel. Overall it was a pleasant stay at a very reasonable price."
