Grand Plaza Al Madina

Very close to mosque and others that needed for stay like restaurants

Receptionist wasn't preventable/ crowded/ elevators are oldies/ rooms are dirty/ so overall not happy to staying that hotels anymore

Property is pretty close to Haram and plenty of dining and shopping options

Ine of the worse room ever. Everything was dirty.

My experience at the Grand Plaza Al Madina Hotel was deeply disappointing, and I believe their entire staff, especially the front desk team, would benefit greatly from client experience training. While I understand that managing a large number of guests can be overwhelming, simple gestures like a smile or a genuine effort to assist guests can make a significant difference. There were several issues during my stay: * We were a group of four sharing a room, yet only two keys were provided, which had to be reprogrammed at the front desk multiple times a day. * Room service was virtually nonexistent. Basic requests for items like toilet paper and towels were only fulfilled the following day, despite repeated follow-ups. * The shower had no hot water, and despite the need for cost-cutting, these basics should never be compromised as they directly impact guest comfort. * Upon check-in, our luggage was taken by staff with the assurance it would be delivered to our room. Over an hour later, we found it left unattended in the lobby. * Lastly, running only two out of four elevators to serve hundreds of guests created unnecessary inconvenience and frustration. These shortcomings significantly detracted from my trip to this beautiful city. Unfortunately, I cannot recommend this hotel, as there are many other options that provide a far better experience.
