Hotels near Mosque Baraka in Medina

Firstly I would like to make very clear that there are two Movenpick hotels in Madinah which some reviewers seem to be mixing up! This one is part of the Accor group and the Movenpick Madina that we stayed in. It is BEHIND the Pullman Zamzam Madinah, which faces one side of the Masjid al Nabawi haram. So it is a couple of roads walk away from the haram on the opposite side to the female entrances to the haram. This is nowhere near five star standard. Due to the poor condition of the bathrooms and room decor I would say three is being generous. Despite its attractive entrance and reception this is a rundown hotel in need of refurbishment, in particular the disgusting bathrooms. The bath, sinks and tiles were old, stained and mouldy. This was made worse by the fact that the housekeeping was very poor. The rooms weren’t cleaned and towels not changed unless we requested this. The actual rooms were ok despite the tired looking furnishings and lack of cleaning. The receptionist who checked us in apologised for not giving us adjacent rooms, but we discovered we did have adjacent rooms, and both were triple rooms. The rooms were quite spacious with comfortable generous sized beds but the TVs had very poor reception and the wifi was appalling, regularly dropping out. The fridges in the rooms were tiny and barely cold. In fact they and the lights turned off whenever we took the key cards out! Because of the hotel location the view out of the window was depressing, a view of the main road. A nice touch though was that as well as a Quran there was a nice prayer mat in each room. On our first morning we went down to breakfast to discover that the female staff had already let some guests have breakfast for our rooms. The head of staff quickly resolved this apologising profusely. In fact apart from this confusion on the first day we found the restaurant staff to be very nice people. They always had a smile for us and the waiters always ready to assist. We were very very disappointed with the very limited cooked breakfast items - there was barely any variety and apart from on one day only vegetarian options. The pancakes were disgusting and tasted like long life ones from packets rather than freshly made. Very very disappointing. But the worst was that there was no fresh coffee!! Only sachets of instant coffee. How is this possible in a so called five star restaurant? There was a big unhealthy selection of pastries though. And the strawberry juice when available was nice. We tried to order room service in the evening on one occasion- the staff member (chef?) who answered the call was rude and told us some of the items were either unavailable or incorrectly described on the menu! On the whole staying at this hotel was a major inconvenience due to its location and at best it is a three star hotel. I would not stay here again.

Good, clean and spacious suites with very well mannered staff. They have a cafeteria in the lobby where breakfast is served, not in the form of buffet but one can order a breakfast dish, with a drink and water (one for each). 5-10 minutes drive to Masjid-e-Nabawi by taxi, cost totally upto your negotiation skills. Al Rashed Mega Mall is just across the road but the road is so busy, please don’t even think of crossing it straight on foot. Either take a taxi (sounds weird) or walk down the lane till a crossing and then come back all the way up. During my stay of 3 nights, I couldn’t go there even once. On the lane behind, 10 mins walk away, you will be able to find all restaurants like tazaj, dominos, mcdonalds etc. Overall, a pleasant stay, 20-30 mins from Airport and Harmain Train Station.

This is an astonishing hotel. The food cooked by chef zanati is fabulous. It is quite a convenient hotel because it is quite close to the blessed masjid Al nabawi. The room service is really good at they fulfill your requirements. I would 100% recommend this hotel. If I am ever in medina again I would love to come here

Amazing experience at the Oberoi, Madina. The room was spacious and comfortable, and it is conveniently located next Masjid Nabawi. Special thanks to the restaurant staff - Leon, Tarek, Salam, Iqbal, Abdelsattar and manager Mohamed Abdul Monem. Would definitely recommend others to stay here the next time they are staying at Madina.

Not recommended Stay in another CLEAN hotel. The baby cot is extremely dirty and not to be used by kids. Room type Junior Suite not a regular room The rate includes Full board (buffet) however they sever room service instead and have limited options only 5 4 main course. So if you are staying for 2 or 3 nights You have to eat the same dish 2 times a day for your entire stay. The other 5 stars hotel here server open buffet. Just choose another hotel . Zero value for money Zero service You have to call three times to get the order/service (and it will arrive wrong after an hour at least)

The environment is very good, just outside the square

Great hotel to stay, just behind the Masjid Nabawi. So many eateries nearby. Rate found on Trip.com was the cheapest. Even hilton.com can’t beat the rate offered by Trip.com

Warm welcome by Staff, perfect attitude, Asked me to inspect room before finish check in process, Room big, clean Restaurants & Grocery store v near Regarding Alharam Alnabawi, hotel very near but there are a huge construction around the hotel that leaded to close the direct road to Almasjid Alnabawi, you will need to use alternative way around 10mins walk الاستقبال رائع وبابتسامه جميله ، الفندق جميل ، الغرفه نظيفه ومهيئه الفندق في الاصل قريب جدا من المسجد النبوي ولكن لان هنالك انشائات وعمليات حفر قريبه ستستخدم طريق بديل حوالي 10 دقائق مشيا على الاقدام

Thank you for FAHAD in the restaurant for the excellent service On a été très content de séjourner dans cet établissement, proche de la mosquée Service de haute qualité Le personnel est à l'écoute
