What guests think

Across reviews of Crowne Plaza Madinah by IHG, travellers consistently praise the excellent location near Masjid Nabawi and generally friendly, helpful staff, while noting dated interiors, some small rooms, and inconsistent upkeep with occasional maintenance issues.

Many guests highlight very short walks to men's entrances, with a hotel shuttle assisting women for farther gates. Breakfast often gets high marks, though some find dinner options expensive or underwhelming. Overall cleanliness ranges from spotless to subpar, with smoke smells and worn carpets reported in some areas. Good for a straightforward stay focused on pilgrimage, in an older hotel.

I have not stayed in that many Crown Plazas, but have spent too many nights at Marriott properties. So this Crown Plaza is five minutes walk from Masjid Nabawi (South Gates, #305) and extremely convenient from that perspective. It is like a mainline Marriott. Very clean and comfortable beds. Well soundproofed. The breakfast was good. Negatives were that some of the physical infrastructure was not that well maintained. The electric teapot was leaking. The bathroom faucet should be replaced and the shower stall had a backup of water. The only way to fix this is probably to go through the rooms periodically. Given the almost full capacity throughout the year, these rooms probably need more maintenance.

The hotel is terrible. The interior design of the room needs a full review. We arrived 7PM and one reception is available as it is call for Magrib and fast breaking so he rushed our check in. Went up to the room and shocked with two single beds squeezed in a less than four meter square even though our booking is two twin beds. I went down complained to the same gentleman but he is hopeless cuz his peers and supervisors are away for fast breaking. He asked us to come after one hour and half and he will TRY to solve the problem. We were exhausted after a long drive but no one bother. Came after two hours and one supervisor came to help us and the surprisingly she has no idea about the complain so we have to start explain to her again - the surprise is she does not know anything about the set up of her hotel room and has to make some phone calls to understand the set up of the hotel room. She suggested to give us a handicap room and ask the bell room to show us the room. we agreed after seeing the room even it is tribble. They put beds in an empty area and block the cabinet and fridge, the fridge was overheated because the bed blocked the air pass and the funny thing the TV is above the bed so imagine how you can watch. Anyhow; we spent the night safely. The funny thing is all staff believe they have walked an extra step to help their customer but reality is not even Hospitality101 yet. This is not IHG members standards at all. Management is bad and staff needs a real training.

Terrible experience. They make absolutely no effort to make their guests comfortable. They know they will always be booked because of their good location (close to Haram) so they dont care if their guests are happy or if their needs are met. They had a buffet every night for about $38 per person but the food is horrible. Super expensive for that kind of such a low quality food. The food they give you on the streets was probably better. And the staff is rude. Especially if you try to ask them to make any kind of special arrangements or exceptions such as asking a refund for un-used buffet. I will probably never come here again.

Great location, incredible beautiful view of the Green Dome few 100 meters from the hotel, very busy and popular hotel, great amenities, staff was responsive and accommodating. For women staying at the hotel, know that women’s entrance to the Mosque is a bit of a walk (gate 30-28) take the hotel shuttle saves you the hassle. Fast food restaurants are on the other side of the hotel. So plan accordingly. And oh, don’t get conned like I did when taking a taxi from the Medinah train station to the hotel ( paid 150 SAR) when it should be 40-60 SAR. And to the Airport is more from 50-75SAR.

The overall experience is average considering the cost for the stay. The property is outdated and smells like smoke when we have specifically asked for a non smoking room for allergy reason. We had to request for the room to be cleaned on a daily basis even though we used the available option at the door asking for house keeping. The shower curtain is ripped and water was seeping out. The towels are old and some had rust on them. Bath towels are weird sizes. The sink was clogged and we had to request 3 times for them to send some one to fix. Thanks to the concierge manager, his name was Mohammad, a very friendly gentleman that spoke English well and some Arabic; he was very helpful, social and wanted to offer help. He was one of the good experience we had at the hotel. The food option at the hotel is expensive. We did not eat at the hotel so I can't comment on the quality. One good thing about the hotel, it is few steps away from Al Masjid Alnabawiyy Alshareef which made us over look so many other negatives and enjoyed to be that close.
