為什麼人們喜歡它
- Panoramic aerial views of Al Ain from 3,000 feet up
- Heated outdoor pools with genuine water slides
- Temperatures are consistently 10-15°F cooler than the city below
快速概覽： It’s the old Mercure Grand with a new name and the same aging bones—spectacular location, but don't expect brand-new furniture.
由 @aqduszahb 評論: I escaped the city noise for a weekend at Jebel Hafeet and it was pure bliss. The sunset by the pool is unmatched, and the rooms are incredibly spacious for families. Don't forget to use code MFNF—it made this luxury stay surprisingly affordable.

清潔與維護
8.2
- Housekeeping: Hit or miss. Daily service happens, but requests for extra towels or bin clearing can take hours.
- Bathroom hygiene: Generally clean grout and tiles, but fixtures often show water spots and age-related wear.
- Maintenance: The weak point. Expect scuffed furniture, peeling paint on balconies, and the occasional loose handle.
- Linens & towels: Clean but tired. Towels can be scratchy and pillowcases sometimes feel rough/old.
- Odors & scents: Mostly neutral/fresh mountain air, though some hallways have a faint lingering carpet smell.

常見問題與隱藏小貼士
預訂前您真正想知道的一切。
Is it actually called Alberni or Mercure?
It is officially 'Alberni Jabal Hafeet Hotel' now, but locals and road signs still refer to it as the Mercure Grand.
Is the pool heated?
Yes, the outdoor pools are temperature-controlled, making them usable even in cooler winter months.
Can I get food delivery up there?
Extremely difficult. Most Talabat/Deliveroo drivers will not drive up the mountain. Plan to eat on-site or bring food.
Is there a resort fee?
No hidden resort fee, but there is a standard tourism fee of AED 15 per room per night charged at check-in.
Are the water slides for adults too?
They are designed for kids/teens, but adventurous adults often use them. Just mind the aging joints (yours and the slide's).
Is it pet friendly?
No, pets are not allowed.

Visit the hot springs at Green Mubazzarah at the bottom of the mountain *before* you drive up to check in.
