I was visiting Makkah with my mother and my younger brother for Umrah purposes. After looking at reviews online, I decided to go to Swissôtel. I am very relieved and happy that I made this decision. This hotel was very clean, luxurious, great customer service and the staff were very helpful. We felt at home in this hotel. Plus it was a short distance away from Al-Haram mosque. This hotel is connected to the clock tower where you will find restaurants and a mall for shopping which was great for my mother since she could not walk long distances. I highly recommend this hotel to anyone including families with children. Would definitely book this hotel again. Oh, almost forgot to mention, the "included breakfast" can simply be described as a BUFFET. It had endless options with food tasting delicious and was fulfilling.

Review of Swissotel Makkah
I recently stayed at Swissotel Makkah, and unfortunately, my experience did not meet the expectations set by its five-star rating. Here are some of the issues I encountered during my stay: 1. Room Cleanliness: Upon entering my room, I was disappointed to find it dirty. The floors had not been cleaned properly, and the linens were not fresh. 2. Unpleasant Odors: The pillows in the room had a noticeable and unpleasant smell, which made it difficult for me to get a good night's sleep. 3. Shower Temperature Control: I struggled to control the temperature of the shower, resulting in an uncomfortable bathing experience. 4. Concierge Service: After checking in, I had to wait about 15 minutes for the concierge to assist me with my luggage. I ended up having to chase them down three times before receiving help. Overall, my experience at Swissotel Makkah was far from satisfactory, and I believe improvements are necessary to ensure that future guests receive the quality of service they expect. I hope the management addresses these concerns, as I was truly looking forward to a memorable stay. Rating: ★★☆☆☆ (2/5)
