Not a 5 star hotel
I had booked the hotel and paid for online. Arrived at the hotel late in the evening to find the hotel staff not speaking much English and not very helpful. The receptionist said that the room had been booked but no payment was received and that we had to pay again. Even though we produced proof of payment he still demanded another payment. It was a problem with their bank I found out later. I did get a refund but it caused quite a bit of inconvenience. The room needed updating and the shower was dirty. The restaurant floor was not swept regularly during the buffet breakfast, there were bits of food etc on the floor. The lobby however is spacious and very good.

Standard has gone down, not a five star
I have stayed in Al Shohada hotel twice prior to this visit and i can clearly see the standard has gone down and it is certainly not a five start hotel. The positives: -The hotel staff quickly came to pick up the luggage on our arrival and safely took to our room -The reception staff looked nice and gentle, although had to bring in a translater on one occasion to explain one problem - The two issues related to shower/toilet were responded and fixed in quick time (within 30 mins) by the housekeeping staff who were humble and polite The negatives: - We booked a twin bed room for x2 adults, x2 kids through expedia and what we got is one king size bed. On multiple complaints, we were told sorry this is what we have to bear with, as hotel is full - We booked a non-smoking room through expedia and what we got was a room in a corridor full of smoking guests and bad smell all around. Again this was complained to reception but to no avail - The toilet flush wasn't working on first use and the shower drain was blocked. These were fixed on reporting but what i find disappointing is that these should be checked prior to room allocated to new guests - The housekeeping is TERRIBLE, of our 5 nights stay only once did the room service came to change towels/bed sheets and clean room (despite calling them 3 times and every time they acknowledge to come but won't). This room service bloke was a rude person and the hotel needs to teach him how to speak to guests.

Just a little better hotel
It was a good hotel but off course, not a Five Star as claimed.Furniture was very old and dirty, looking never replace, once installed. WIFI was not available at all. only available at Lobby, with cahrges of 25 SAR/day. Location is little far from Masjid al-Haram, take at least 10-15 minutes. Breakfast was good.

Disappointed by staff, housekeeping, smoking
I had stayed in this hotel 5 years ago on a work trip, and immensely enjoyed my stay. So I decided to book this hotel for my personal trip. I was very disappointed by the degradation of service over the years. There's a lot of potential for improvement. Housekeeping never showed up...in my 4 day stay, my wasn't cleaned once! There was a time when housekeeping knocked my door at 10pm and asked whether I wanted my room cleaned. Other than that I had to plead with the front desk/concierge,to ask for fresh towels, which fell on deaf ears all the time. People would smoke in corridors, and form groups there and make noise through the night. The corridors should be made non-smoking! And people should be barred from making excessive noise there after 9pm. There were sofas in front of my room where a group of men would sit all day, talk loudly, and smoke all day. Not the experience I'd expect in a 5-star hotel. The front desk could be more prompt too. I needed an iron for my clothes, and had to call 3 times over several hours to finally get it. Similarly, when I asked the concierge/bell man some questions about shuttle buses to Haram, he started advertising some local services for 'ziyarah' (historical sightseeing). The shuttle bus was quick,but not very helpful, since the road to Haram was closed off from quite far. The hotel was very clean and comfortable, and the main lobby is very well decorated and scented. The breakfast was phenomenal, and I really enjoyed it.

Hotel is losing its rating
earlier years consider to be one of the best hotels but now it is no longer. Employee at the reception were not trained well and a lot of mistakes with reservation center. Hotel service is not offered on the level you expect. actually nobody cares including their management. smell is every where on the floor i am in due to cleaning and it was stinking. Room service after the order and it reaches your room, they ask for cash only and as usual they forget to bring other items like bread to be part of the order. Housekeeping do not care or listen. we have asked for iron and table, we had left the hotel and it was not provided. in addition, you ask them to clean the room, they do not do it. you must phone them 2 or 3 times to do it. in regards to complaining, i complained many times and unfortunate, they promise to convey it to the manager but no reply or even a message to me. I promised my self and family will not book again in this really bad hotel.

Nice hotel close to Haram
This is a nice hotel. I had a little gotcha with respect to my booking. I had booked and Executive room with a King Bed but turns out ( documented by the hotel) the hotel had received a booking for a room with two twin beds, and the hotel did not respect my reservation and asked me to call Expedia. The hotel is pretty nice, it is a good 10 to 15 minute walk to Haram, but they also have a 24 hour shuttle which is only available sparingly.
