Service was absolutely awful. The management and staff do not help you in regards to rooms and stay. I was lied to by staff members in regards to a date change I had requested, they stated that the dates would be changed and on arrival this was not the case. The shower head of my room fell off mid shower, which then I had to wait four to five hours for a replacement, which took away half of my day. Please avoid this hotel, it is not a 5 star hotel, Trust me !

Communicational skills , Reception was not customer friendly , exception of one who spoke good English and Urdu, The roads get blocked for prayers and the security didnt let us get through even we had reservation for the hotel , we wasted 3 hrs to get to the hotel and check in so we could perform umrah , since thd hotel is near Haram there has to be a better way to get to the hotel , we paid extra to taxi for circling around the Makkah tower couple of times, bathroom was ok needs maintenance, what i really liked Kabah view was amazing, room was clean , haram was 2 min walk , lobby had prayer arrangements , mall was 2 min away the staff was wonderfully who took care of our daily needs and maintained our rooms , Breakfast was very good

Lack of Coordination by Hotel Staff

I had booked my stay at Swissotel for 3 adults and had asked for 3 beds but was allocated a room with 4 beds and accordingly charged extra . The Front Desk service was painfully slow. There was no response to any calls to the Front Desk did hours and to e mails I sent 2-3 days earlier regarding intimidation of my arrival plan .
