Not as good as another Rotana I’ve stayed at, but clean and comfortable. Expedia list this hotel as having an airport shuttle available on request, but it doesn’t. There is a shuttle to the beach and local shopping malls, but this can be difficult to use as drop off and collection points not signed and no location on shuttle schedule..

I have stayed several times. The staff are really friendly and helpful. Breakfast service is good and they are efficient with service. I wasn’t feeling well for a few days and the hotel went out of there way to send breakfast to my room Normal taxis are generally available easily but the hotel have their own which a lady tries to make you take which are more expensive so it’s a little embarrassing to refuse. I would recommend this hotel most definitely as it gives you all you need. Spacious clean rooms, a good breakfast at a very reasonable price.
