Lovely, clean and spacious rooms. Wonderfully helpful staff, amazing breakfast spread with an incredibly large seating area. Two separate routes to the haram, one internal via the clock tower building or one via the external main road. Great location.. only negative is that not all lifts go to the ground floor so occasionally you get a lift which takes you to P4 and you need another lift to take you to the ground floor but that's a minor issue.

My stay at Swissôtel Makkah was excellent overall. The check-in experience was smooth and impressive, and I am truly grateful to the hotel management for upgrading me to a beautiful room with a Haram view, this made my stay extremely memorable. The breakfast was outstanding, with a huge dining space, a dedicated kids’ area, and an exceptional variety of high-quality food. There were plenty of options including beverages, fruits, salads, desserts, bakery items, and more. The atmosphere, service, and organization were all excellent. I did order in-room dining on two nights, and although the food quality was good, both orders arrived with mistakes. The first night, the pasta was delivered with black pepper despite my clear request that it was for my kids and shouldn't be spicy. The second night, I received chicken biryani instead of mutton biryani. The staff tried their best to compensate, sending coffee with a fruit platter the first night and lovely desserts the second night, which I appreciated, but unfortunately it did consume a lot of my time. Overall, the clean room, incredible view, excellent breakfast, and very polite staff made the stay highly enjoyable. I look forward to staying again, in shā’Allāh.
