My stay was excellent. Check-in was fast and easy and my room was very comfortable with excellent shower and a/c. The breakfast buffet was plentiful and varied with fresh fruit and salads as well as an array of hot veg and non-veg dishes and freshly made omelettes. The staff were wonderful and always ready to help. The hotel has a gym, an unheated rooftop swimming pool and a free underground carpark. Within easy walking are supermarkets, shops and restaurants as well as the local bus station with direct cheap connections to the airport and to Muttrah port and Souq. Reception, restaurant and cleaning staff are wonderful and I would not hesitate to return to this hotel.

“Great location near the bus station 🚉. The place is mostly quiet, but on our second night the guest next door was very loud and kept banging doors 🚪😣. I told the reception in the morning and they fixed it right away 👍. After that, we had a peaceful last night 😊.
The food was excellent with different options every day 🍽️😋.
I also liked the gym, it was complete and had everything I needed 🏋️♀️💪.
The only downside was the pool, it wasn’t well-maintained and there was no heater 🏊♂️”

“The best budget hotel in Ruwi town. They have good services overall but there are somethings needed to be seen and checked. The TV does not have any kind of OTT platforms ( Netflix, amazon prime etc.) so make sure you have it in your phone. The hair dryer kept in bathroom is of low and cheap quality as when you use it stops after 10 seconds due to heating up and does not provide enough heat to dry. The toilet flush water release button was very hard which gets stuck when you push hardly and does not revert back. The temperature control in shower and wash basin is not up to the mark. If you wanna get warm water it gets too warm and for cold it gets too cold freezing. There is no normal water option.”
Your hotel is very nice. I have come and stayed before. And again I'm trying to come. Make a booking for a room and y
