Zaha Al Munawara Hotel

The location is a 12-15m brisk walk to the Haram, during the day you need a car to get there as it is extremely hot around noon time and for the afternoon prayer 🧎‍♂️. Uber is the best choice as it’s roughly 13SR and takes 5m. If you’re in good health and shape, the walk to the Haram is pleasant with views of the vicinity and also other pilgrims descending towards the Haram. The staff of the hotel are pleasant and have a welcoming atmosphere. The hotel itself is on the main road and easily accessible, the rooms are spacious and the beds provided were reasonable, after a day of heightened activity it provided a good night sleep. Within close proximity there local shops offering groceries etc at reasonable prices & also there are a few Asian restaurants & one of the restaurant “Peshawari Moatam” has amazing food and it is very very reasonably priced. The variety of food they offer is amazing and delicious especially their signature “Chapli Kebabs” the breakfast at the hotel is nice and of a good local standard, at 9am it gets quite crowded so be in after Fajar prayer🧎‍♂️ you’ll have a seat. There is a decent coffee shop in the foyer at reasonable prices a great facility. If you’re looking for a quiet hotel with good amenities and a little bit away from the noise and hustle bustle on a budget this ticks all the boxes. We downloaded the hunger station app and used Monzo to pay for food, this was so convenient as everywhere we went there were queues of people ordering food, at one point we waited nearly an hour for our KFC order. The app is great, you can order almost anything & the best not is food gets delivered within 30-45m and it’s cheaper as well!! It is a 3 star hotel so be mindful and don’t expect more. Overall we had little issues and would recommend this as a family friendly hotel as well as suitable for all.

Arabic breakfast, Staff Courtesy

It was a great stay at Zaha al munawara, room was excellent very spacy and clean, stuff are doing a great job , excellent customer service. Thanks to the stuff especially Rayan Al harbi for his excellent customer service, and his amazing help and also thanks to the restaurant stuff, they are amazing and especially the chef of the restaurant Mr. Mahamoud Al Saaydi who is taking care of customers and their needs with a nice smile. I recommend this hotel to everyone, it is near to Masjid and also very clean and people are very helpful and nice. this is the second stay for me at this Hotel ( 8days) and I will go back all the time to this hotel. the elevator is always available and all the hotel smell good, very clean. the breakfast is excellent and various. This is the best hotel I seen in terms of cleanness, customer services, location and value of the money. I recommend it to everyone. Thanks again to all of the stuff.

We had a nice stay and can’t really complain of anything. The staff is helpful and courteous. The hotel is about 8-12min walk from Haram (depending on your walking speed) but a straight and enjoyable walk. Plenty of shops and restaurants around to shop around of you like. They make up the room nicely but you have to tell them to do it. A buffet style breakfast was included in the package and I must say it was amazing. You can easily split the breakfast in starter, main course and dessert. We didn’t have to eat lunch after the breakfast and it is value for money. Overall, great restaurant. Rooms are big. Bathrooms are big as well. Definitely would come back.

The location is convenient—neither too close nor too far from the Haram. However, I found the room size to be smaller compared to my previous stay, and the quality of the breakfast has noticeably declined since my last visit.
