Liked: Cleanliness
Overall, the Hotel is a bit tired and could do with renovating. Room was fine, internet is terrible and by the main road where drag races happened every night between 12 and 3 am. Gym facilities excellent and good selection of foods.
Everything was nice , the room was spacious, clean and comfortable.
The WiFi was the only letdown as it was quite poor.
Over all enjoyed the stay
The neighborhood was fine to walk

Solid stay in Riyadh
Decent enough stay in heart of Riyadh. Perhaps a lower standard than some other global hotel chains but adequate for a couple of nights.
Close by to plenty of restaurants and lounges
Staff in the property are friendly and approachable, the are outside of the hotel is good and there are plenty of eateries if you know where to look.
My only negative was the wifi in the hotel, if you are there for work, the wifi signal is very poor meaning that connectivity is very limited. Overall my stay was a pleasant one and would go back again.
Really superb hotel from which to enjoy Riyadh. Room had everything you need. Pool, sauna and gym excellent, clean and modern. Everyone speaks very good english. Nice breakfast beffet. Great local area to explore. Go right out of hotel to Olaya mall a short distance away. Go left and there's a multitude of coffee shops. Had 2 nice dinners at Allo Beirut in same direction on hotel side of road. Don't be intimidated by culture if from West. Embrace Saudi Arabia and it will embrace you. From Canada and loved the vibrant and welcoming city and this lovely hotel.

Nice place, too bad the WiFi is unusable.
This is an older hotel with really nice rooms and although a bit dated, luxurious. The location is great, the staff friendly, and the breakfast good.
It could use some better maintenance and a remodel.
The one thing that just is awful about it is the WiFi. The Internet is effectively unusable. Cell coverage is also not good. I talked to their IT guy, but he did not understand concepts like WiFI channel spacing and interference, which are a big part of their coverage problem, along with obsolete Aruba access points.
For a business hotel, not having functioning WiFi is disqualifying. Avoid until it is fixed.
Dispite of the location the hotel is fairy old and not clean..

Good Business Hotel
This is a good business hotel and is reasonably priced compared to some of the larger hotel chains in the Olaya area. I was given an upgrade to a suite which made my overall stay very enjoyable.
The only downside is the inconsistent wifi, it did not work at all in the restaurant area and was sporadic in my room.
The front office staff advised me that this would be addressed in the near future as many guests complained of this problem.
