Mövenpick Hotel Makkah Hajar Tower

This hotel did not have the decency to call me and let me know that they were cancelling my reservation- with less than one week left in my trip to umrah. I was sent into a panic. I booked through ALL Accor months in advance. I put my credit card information down for booking and noticed they never charged my card but they did confirm the reservation. When booking the hotel the website said $0 due at arrival so I assumed I should be charged soon. I called them twice and they said they will send a payment link or charge on arrival. They sent me a link several days after I made my booking that I did not see. They gave me only 24 hrs to complete the payment. I never saw this email and they proceeded to cancel my reservation. This could’ve happened to anyone. I then see that my reservation is cancelled so I called them and they said due to no payment they cancelled reservation. It’s absurd that they had my card info and did not charge it to begin with but then only give me 24 hrs to pay and that too days after my booking is already confirmed. They couldn’t even offer me a room for new booking and I was forced to spend $500 more in finding a new hotel less than one week from the day I was due in Makkah. What’s worse is they didn’t even call…they don’t care about their guests being stranded. It’s all about making money. What kind of business is this. Hotels run on hospitality…not Movenpick Makkah though.

The hotel is very niiice the food is very nice as well. Nothing to xomplain at all I have the best stay at makkah The hotel is 5 mun to haram i cam with group nice and smooth entrance from hotel to harama which is the best place you can choose ever thankyou

It was a great stay The hotel was near to haram The hotel located in the clock tower nice view , the furniture in the hotel is New and i have been in the hotel before but this time was better and better The welcoming of the staff is outstanding specially Bakur the Door man

It took 20 minutes for the reception to do the check in process although we had requested for two suites on the same floor and there beds - the property needs renovation, especially the washroom loos very shabby and don’t look like of five star

This hotel met my basic expectations, but its pricing was excessive for the quality of accommodations provided. Notably, the hotel failed to accommodate guests with disabilities effectively. The staff’s demeanor could be perceived as unfriendly, which may have been influenced by cultural differences. I am British Pakistani if that helps?! The breakfast options were limited and of poor quality. On several occasions, the menu lacked items that I typically enjoy. The presentation of the food as high-quality was misleading, as it appeared less appetizing than the breakfast served at another establishment. The restaurant staff were courteous and deserving of better compensation. The primary advantage of this hotel is its location, which is crucial for those planning to perform Umrah or Hajj. However, for a five-star establishment, significant improvements are necessary to enhance the overall guest experience. The bed was comfortable, but the room’s layout resembled a compact apartment in London. The presence of an unexpected stove and a kettle on top of it created a cramped and uncomfortable atmosphere. It appeared as if the hotel had maximized the number of rooms in the building. The hotel’s elevator system was confusing, which was more attributable to the surrounding mall than to the hotel itself.
