Gloria Inn

The receptionist treated me with disrespect, as I'm going in, they asked me about my room No. and when I asked why they said it's for my own safety, meaning they suspect I'm not a resident, why would I go in if I'm not a resident ! So, I complained, and no aplogy, no explanation .. Other than that and the slow wifi, everything is ok, and other than the receptionists ( of today), everyone is kind, smiling, still I wouldn't recommend it ..

-Good sized room, clean, comfortable, and nicely decorated with a lot of drawer space. Nice flat screen TV with some international channels, bed and pillows are very comfortable. However, there are few things that need maintenance in the room, such as the security door chain being broken, windows not being able to lock, and there is no mosquito screen. -Front desk staff and housekeepers are nice and polite. But having a terrible restaurant with rude staff, the pizza is awful, and it's just a frozen pizza! -Location is okay, right next to a busy road and highway, and traffic noise is noticeable depending on the location of the room. Walking distance to Al Masmak Palace Museum and the Souk. There are Lulu and Nesto Hypermarkets nearby, but no any fast-food chains like McDonald's nearby (or at least 2kms away). -Very bad traffic every day around the hotel, not a nice neighborhood for pedestrians, busy and quite dirty, but you are in the right spot to experience typical local traffic, cars, and people everywhere! -The gym is small but nice, equipments are new. -Very good WIFI!

Nice, clean and tidy room. I had the junior suite and was a good size with additional sofa area, fridge and tea making facilities and very large bathroom. Nice gym, Starbucks on site (although I didn't use it) and small shop for snacks. Good location for the "old town" around 15 minutes walk from Masmat Palace but it's a cab/Uber/bolt ride away for anything else including airport, freedom bridge, boulevard city.

I booked this hotel as a layover point to Makkah from UAE as it was not too far from highway and its in the city area too, rooms were spacious, good customer service, I forgot my personal items there and I informed the staff and they kept it safe for a week and I picked them on our return to UAE

This hotel is in a very crowded area and it’s not close to the boulevard world. It’s about a 40 minute drive if take bolt it’s between 57-77 SAR to get there. My room was average size and clean. I believe the price doesn’t match location and comfort it was high for no reason. There are better hotels in better areas for less money. They do offer parking and it’s free. There are a lot of different shops in the area
