Taif Sheraton Hotel: Not worth the drive
  • Satisfaction:
  • Typical Sheraton accommodations. Clean and pleasant restaurant. We met Mohammed Ali there in the restaurant during one of his trips to the Taif/Meccah area. If you're going to Taif, the Sheraton is as good a place as any. I would not recommend the drive from Jeddah to Taif up the escarpment unless absolutely necessary though. A very dangerous and winding mountain road with suicidal drivers around every turn. Don't stop along the way to take photos. The police appeared out of nowhere and confiscated our film.

    Airport Rd hotel: Family Room
  • Satisfaction:
  • I arrived in Taif very late at night and went to the intercontinental with a friend who had a booking there (480 SAR !).
    Not enjoying same budget level, I return to Taif and not far from the Intercon, there are along the road a lot of "house" with 4X4 parked in front. I decided that there were hotels and I was .... right.
    There are organised to cater family. Nevertheless, one accept me and I got a family room as they only have this kind of "room".
    Paid 200 SAR

    None, not even very clean !
    I would say not so noisy despite the fact that they are close to the highway.

    Airport Rd hotel: Family Room II
  • Satisfaction:
  • It was like an appartment but pretty ugly.
    There was one meeting room with a TV, one bathroom, one kitchen and one bedroom. Additional mattrasses can be asked at the reception.
    No towel available !
    200 SAR

    Not much but seems to always have one or two free room.
    Meet the travelling saudi families including women (all veiled of course but can sometime partially see the face).
