Hotels with Breakfast in Medina

I had a very pleasant stay at Elaf Taibah Hotel in Madinah. The location is excellent — just a short walking distance to Al-Masjid an-Nabawi, which makes it very convenient for prayer times. The rooms were clean, comfortable, and well-maintained. The staff were polite and helpful, always ready to assist with any requests. Check-in and check-out were smooth and fast. There are also many shops and restaurants nearby, making it easy to find food and daily necessities. Overall, it’s a great choice for anyone visiting Madinah for Umrah or Ziyarah. I would definitely stay here again. ⭐️

Location is perfect. Short walk to the Mosque and easy to organise walking to all the shops. Staff are exceptional, always looking to enhance your experience. Breakfast was good with a good selection but did lack variety day in day out. Staff here are very good and are always willing to help. Downside would be the coffee machines that never seemed to be working correctly. We had a couple of maintenance issues, but staff were sent promptly and most were rectified in a good time. A tip would ask for your room to face the mall, the otherside had a lot of traffic noise which was constant.

************* a really pleasant stay we are very grateful to the team for allowing early check in at 10am which was super helpful considering the inconvenient Wizz air London to Medina schedule. Rooms were comfortable. Mount Uhud view was appreciated. as well as the hotel no delays with lifts etc. Excellent convenience with food street which was a great help. Honestly location is a key benefit for the hotel. Breakfast was good but a slight let down . Hash browns were not great tasting likewise for the pancakes. The omelette line was a bit too long straight after Fajr but if you wait to have breakfast till about 8am the queue is more reasonable. Cheese on the omelette station wasn’t nice I’d recommend changing it as it was way too bland and looked awfully plasticky. There needs to be a greater variety of juices and fresh fruit. for the Honestly for the price we paid for was really good value I’d definitely book again if prices make sense for it regardless off the breakfast let down as the variety of foods meant you can still leave the breakfast hall full. The Karak chai in the breakfast hall was enjoyable no doubt. Overall it’s more of a very good 4* hotel by Madina hotel standards

Service is excellent, all the staff from reception to door man is very helpful, clean and spotless room, but the amenities is not too satisfying compare to other hotel with the same price Location is perfect, near by gate 310 (men’s gate), and if you walk a little towards buggy cart to Quba, there are a lot of gift shops for shopping free with more affordable price than gift shops near Nabawi women’s gate

The InterContinental Dar Al Iman Madinah is an excellent choice for anyone travelling to Madinah with worship in mind, who values being as close as possible to Masjid al-Nabawi, wants full service, and is willing to pay a premium for convenience and comfort. The rooms are comfortable and well-equipped, the staff are strong, and the location is hard to beat. If, however, your stay is more about casual tourism or you’re budget-sensitive and willing to be a little further from the Haram, you might find better value elsewhere. But if proximity and spiritual atmosphere matter to you — this hotel definitely delivers.

I was really impressed with the hotel, location and the friendliness of the staff. The hotel was very clean and always had a pleasant smell all the time. Rooms were very spacious, even the bathroom was very big. Room had a safe, ironing board and tge complementary tea, coffee and water bottles, which I thought was a nice touch. Staff were very friendly, both the housekeeping and on reception. Always made you feel welcome and always offering to help. There are 4 lifts, which are quite fast but during peak times can take a while to get in and out of them. But to work around that, you just leave earier for prayers, Masjid Nabawi is less than 5 minutes away, so location was excellent and you have all eatery close by.

The hotel was magnificent, very close to Masjid Nabawi. The room was very spacious, the bedding was comfortable, and the staff were very kind and attentive. The Boustane Al Safia museum is right next to the hotel, with restaurants for all tastes. I highly recommend it and will gladly return.

We had originally booked another hotel but upon arrival there we immediately canceled our reservation and were looking for another hotel in the area ASAP, something clean, close to Masjid Nabawi and fairly priced.  We knew the name and brand; however, we saw two Intercontinental hotels and went with the one we felt had a slight edge or advantage. The hotel was built many years ago and we were informed that it is in the planning process of a renovation so we knew ahead of time what to expect. It has signature blue carpet and a 1950’s/1960’s vibe that I personally adored (almost out of a James Bond movie with Sean Connery).   Everyday we stayed at the hotel, it grew on us.  The view outside was heavenly mashAla.  Remember you can open the window haha some people I imagine think they can’t.  It such an experience and you have to do it.  Most importantly, however, the sweatheart staff and how accommodating they were, you forget you’re staying at the Intercontinental and imagine you’re at your friends house.  Again, We had an amazing window view and could see in the direction of Uhud.  All The cafe’s are right outside of the hotel, the mosque is literally right outside the hotel and down the walking path, maybe a 5 minute walk.  Plenty of pigeons to feed, affordable Ubers/ Taxi right outside, you can walk to Uhud you can walk to Quba, you can do it all.  And the best part, the check-in/help desk are right in front of you when you walk in to the lobby.   Side note: if you enjoy peoppe watching , you get a great view from your hotel room to the outside.  They have a coffee bar in the Lobby with free dates and Arabic coffee (world class) and this hotel served the best Breakfast and room service food I’ve ever had and I’ve been to 51 countries, aged 44.  It was even at par or better maybe than the Jabal Omar in Mecca we stayed at.  You absolutely cannot lose out by staying at this hotel.  If you have any issues pick up your room phone and dial any one of the prompts and someone will alleviate any issues you have.   The hotel executive management were world class and again treated me like a friend/family.  Based off our repertoire I’d come back to this hotel because Sister Khadijah and staff were so amazing mashAla.

We had a very difficult and unexpected stay in Madinah, as I had to extend our booking several times while travelling back and forth to the hospital to care for my father. The service from the team was truly excellent. Every time we needed to extend our stay, I requested to remain in the same room so that we would not have to keep packing and moving our belongings during such a stressful time. The hotel staff did their best to make it happen for us, and that meant more than they probably realised. When my father was discharged from the hospital, they were also kind enough to offer us a more accessible room that was easier for a wheelchair. It made things much more manageable for our family. Thank you to the Front Desk team and everyone involved for being patient, understanding and accommodating throughout our stay. Your kindness made a very difficult period a little easier for us.

Overall, I had a pleasant stay. I did find some hair on the bed sheet on the first day, but aside from that, everything was fine. The room has an amazing view of the Haram and the staff are great, especially Mr Muotaz and Mr Mumin. They’re very friendly and easy to talk to. Some staff may take a bit of time to understand requests, so you might need to be patient and follow up. If the room cleaning could be improved, I’d definitely give it a 5. Overall, I had a great stay in Madinah.
