Robert, 13-night trip

8/10 Very good

Nice hotel but pool area is very tired

Nice hotel close to the shopping mall and only 15 minutes from the airport. Pool area is very tired with broken tiles and faded woodwork. Sunbeds are old and not enough side tables. Nice breakfast with huge fresh selection. Lots of other nice restaurants on site too. I would recommend staying here but pool area definitely needs a massive refurbishment. Hopefully now it’s a Marriot they will make the improvements needed

Lovely Pre Christmas Stay!

We found the hotel very enjoyable, although the only couple of complaints was that we were given just one bath sized towel and a hand towel for our second day, for two people. The other issue was very poor WiFi which I've never had before in this hotel. Other than that, the stay was very good.
John, 2-night trip

Room was really nice, comfy bed with good amenities. Only downside was charging outlets, not close to bed. Otherwise lovely stay, very helpful and friendly staff and beautiful grounds.

Love this place. I travel to Bahrain 2-3 times a year for c. 1 week business trips. The gulf hotel has now become my ‘go-to’. Brilliant staff, comfortable and spacious rooms, amazing restaurants and generally a brilliant feeling to the place.
