What guests think

At Elaf Taiba Hotel, travellers consistently praise the outstanding location steps from Al-Masjid an-Nabawi and the generally friendly, helpful staff, making prayer visits straightforward and creating a welcoming experience for many guests throughout their stay.

Feedback on cleanliness varies, with numerous reports of spotless rooms but also serious complaints about pests, odors, and worn furnishings. Rooms and facilities feel mixed overall: some areas look newly refurbished with spacious layouts and Haram views, while others seem dated, with maintenance issues, occasional slow check-in, and paid on-site parking that can be full. Expect an exceptionally convenient stay near the mosque with warm service, but quality and upkeep can vary by room.

Location is awesome as the access to haram is good for both genders. Staff was good respective and cooperative. Parking was paid per night SAR50 but was full and I parked in haram parking. Junior suite was spacious but different from the given pictures, and was very dirty, the carpet, cabinet, drawers, walls, most of the furniture was too old.

I usually never leave reviews, however my stay was unpleasant enough to persuade me to leave one. Here are several complaints about the place: 1)It is not baby friendly 2) Mold in bathroom 3) Bathroom floor floods from shower 3) Dust behind bed 4) Old and dirty furniture 5) Broken mirror 6) Although there is a no smoke policy, the smell of smoke is present almost every hour. At points it would be so strong that the fire alarms would go off causing the elevators to stop working. Which was a great inconvenience especially during prayer times. 7) The hotel reception desk is not concerned by the smoking. 8) Vacuuming at 9:00pm While I was there I complained about the smoking several times as I have asthma and my baby was with me. However they would give such a hard time just to get their attention at the desk. Finally after mentioning it for the seventh time we were given a different room.

This hotel should be shut down by the authorities! It was that BAD! From check-in to check-out we had a horrible experience! At check-in front desk staff was not available for 10 minutes. When he came, he was not able to speak or understand any English. The building and corridors were in a very bad condition. Our room was the most disgusting of all!!! At least 20 years old, uneven, dirty, worn-out carpet. Broken chairs. Very uncomfortable and extra small beds. Barely clean but worn-out sheets and pillows. Bathroom was also in very poor condition. We asked for extra blanket and the staff refused! The fire alarm was going off every hour, all night, every night! On the last day of my stay power was shut down and there was no one to explain why? I was really concerned about our safety due to the poor condition of this building. Exterior of the building was not very pleasant. The ramp for wheelchair was dangerously crooked and twisted!!

I had an excellent and truly exceptional stay at Elaf Taiba Hotel. The location is outstanding, just a few steps from Al-Masjid Al-Nabawi, making it extremely convenient for prayers. The rooms were spotlessly clean, comfortable, and well maintained, providing a calm and relaxing environment. The service was exceptional, with staff who were polite, welcoming, and always ready to help. Everything was well organised, and the overall atmosphere of the hotel was peaceful and pleasant. An excellent choice for anyone visiting Madinah. I would highly recommend this hotel and would happily stay here again.

This was my first stay in Al Madinah and I am very impressed and happy with Elaf Taiba! They are very detailed oriented and go above and beyond to help you. Pros: - Luxurious feel, warm welcoming at checking with Hibscus tea - Rooms are extremely clean, carpeted, fresh bathrooms, no bad toilet smell, sanitized, and they have thought every single toiletry detail a traveller needs in Madinah - Haramian view, Walking distance to the Masjid and excellent view. Cons: None I stayed in the Family suite and it was a lot of beds. I wish it had a seating area. Otherwise, it was very luxurious. This is 5+ Star ⭐ hotel, not 4.

Before arriving at the hotel i received an email from hotels.com asking me how was my checkin!!!! And When i arrived at the hotel the front staff told me that i don't have a reservation and they dont see any reservation under my name… i showed them the confirmation number but they said it doesn't have my name!!!! The front deak sent me to the manager who keep reviewing my email confirmation and checking there system … and then the manager said i found you in the system and you are already checked in and in your room!!! I said i just arrived and the manager said that Looks like they have given my room to somebody else thinking its me !!!!!!! That explained why i received email that how was my checkin !!!!!!! They gave me another room with 2 hour late checkout but no it was scary that they didn't check and gave my room under my name to Some else

Hotels are nice - except that when we arrived around 4:30-5 both of ours were not checked in till around 6pm as ours rooms weren’t ready - but they were only allocating once we arrived - not ideal after long drive and if the times clash with salah times makes it difficult to leave stuff and go pray.
