Varaa tämä, jos You want a brand-new, spotless business hotel near the airport that feels like a quiet sanctuary despite being on Jeddah's busiest road.
Miksi ihmiset rakastuvat sitä
- Sparkling clean, modern interiors (opened ~2022)
- Soundproofing that actually silences Madinah Road
- Olive Terrace for evening shisha and poolside mocktails
Pikakatsaus: It's a shiny, reliable glass box perfect for business or layovers, but you'll need an Uber to see any actual culture.
Arvioinut @AsongDefang8507711: I’ve stayed at a lot of Marriotts, but this one really impressed me. Walking in to see my name on the TV was such a nice touch. The room in the New Tower is huge and those beds are incredibly comfortable. Definitely ask for the new wing when you book!

FAQ & Piilotut vinkit
Kaikki mitä haluat todella tietää ennen varaamista.
Is there alcohol served at the Sky Lounge?
No. Like all hotels in Saudi Arabia, it is strictly dry. The 'bar' serves mocktails, coffee, and tea.
How far is the airport?
Very close. It's about a 10-15 minute drive to King Abdulaziz International Airport (JED).
Is the pool mixed gender?
Yes, it is a family-friendly outdoor pool, but modest swimwear is expected.
Can I walk to restaurants nearby?
Not really. You are on a highway service road. There are a few spots in the Al Bawadi district behind the hotel, but crossing the road is dangerous. Take a car.
Is there a shuttle to the airport?
No dedicated free shuttle, but the hotel can arrange a transfer for a fee (usually pricier than Uber).
Is breakfast included?
Depends on your rate. If not, the buffet at Olive Tree is around 100-120 SAR per person.
Sisäpiirin vinkit
- ✨
The 'Sky View' cafe in the lobby has a glass roof and is great for photos, but the real evening vibe is at 'Olive Terrace' by the pool for shisha.
- ✨
Ask for a 'quiet side' room; the hotel is U-shaped and the inner rooms face the pool/terrace.
- ✨
The gym is 24/7 and surprisingly well-equipped with Technogym gear — usually empty in the mornings.
5 asiaa, jotka sinun pitää tietää ennen matkaasi
💡The 'City View' is euphemism for 'Highway View' — it's dynamic but not scenic.
💡The AC is incredibly powerful; you might actually get cold at night.
💡There is a separate kids' pool, which keeps the main pool relatively peaceful for adults.
💡Room service portions are massive — one main course can easily feed two light eaters.
💡The lobby scent is a signature Marriott white tea fragrance that is pumped in quite heavily.
