Mena Red Sea Palace Jeddah

I know I am only giving it a rating of Average but I would stay there again and would recommend it. The hotel is...fine. It's not charming or fancy but it is nice and clean and not at all dingy or disappointing. My room was good. Comfortable with all the usual amenities. Great wifi and hot water, which are the two things I care about. The staff were helpful and nice. Helping me get this and print boarding passes and whatnot. Unfortunately when I stayed the restaurant and cafe were not operating but there are lots of places nearby. The best thing about this hotel is the location. It is steps from the historical centre and near tons of eateries and cafes and shopping places. Lots to do. (Other areas I visited in Jeddah were not so pedestrian friendly.) It isn't cheap, but I don't think much in Jeddah is and I think the price was good for the area. I would recommend it and would stay again.

The Red Sea Palace is a hotel that's a bit past its prime but quite serviceable, and it is less extravagantly priced than the glittering luxury hotels that line the corniche road far from the city center. Its biggest asset is that it is one of the few comfortable accommodations close to the UNESCO-listed World Heritage "Old City." The room was spacious, with good Wi-Fi, and the bathroom facilities were up to snuff, though I must mention two demerits. There was no toilet paper in the room when I arrived at night, but fortunately there was not an urgent need for it till the next day, by which time I had pleaded with a room attendant down the hall for a roll. Also, one of the rolling wheels on the desk chair was not properly attached, and the chair overturned on me. When I pointed this out to the room staff, he immediately switched the faulty chair with one in another guest room, which solved my problem.... Some hotel staffers were warm and welcoming. Some behind the front desk seemed chilly and unhappy to be there. I should add it was not a bustling lobby -- but then again, I did not see many obvious tourists around the Old City till my third day in Jeddah, when I began to see actual European tour groups. I wondered where they were lodged, since I saw no such people at the Red Sea Palace.

Use to be good before, but not great, breakfast is not in a pack bag, not buffet, stay wise ok, service wise not ok

A lovely hotel with arabian hospitality, excellent frontline and housekeeping staff, ramadan protocols were followed. Special requests for suhoor were well delivered. Location is quite convenient, in the sense that you can visit the complete stretch of historic jeddah. There are nearby restaurants, grocery shops (also known as baqala) and mosque. Overall extremely satisfied as i had received a good discount from make my trip. Thanks to all.

Minimally staffed with the least capables where reception won’t pick your call, airconditioning system very noisy since it’s old. Hardly anything in the name of service. Though rooms are large, beds too. Just an average place but with least services!

It was a pleasant stay. I would like to come back
