Manazil Al Mukhtara Hotels in Madinah

Friendly staff. Decent hotel. Breakfast is pretty good with decent options. Very close to the Masjid un Nabawi. It is about 6 to 8 minutes walk from the Haram.

I stayed at Odst Al Madinah Hotel from April 7 to April 10, 2025, and paid 1,078 AED for three nights, booked online through Trip.com. For the location, the price is quite affordable — still not super cheap, but definitely worth it for what you get. I booked it just one day before arriving, and it was one of the cheapest options available in that area at the time. I paid online, and there was no extra deposit required, which made the whole check-in process really smooth. When I arrived, there was a long queue at reception, but one of the staff members noticed and opened a new counter, calling me over and helping me check in quickly. That made a good first impression. The staff were generally kind and helpful, except for one staff member at the small bakery shop in the lobby — he seemed to be always in a hurry and a bit rude, but it wasn’t a big issue. The location is definitely one of the best things about this hotel. It’s around a 10-minute walk to Masjid Nabawi, or even less if you walk fast. The hotel is located near Fahad Road, where you’ll find the Madinah Frame and many well-known hotels. It’s also near the main entrance of the mosque, so if you’re walking with women, it’s very convenient — you can enter directly without needing to take the long detour to the women’s gate. The surrounding area is vibrant and full of life, with shops, groceries, shopping centers, and a very spiritual atmosphere. During prayer times, it’s beautiful to walk together with crowds heading to the mosque. I didn’t book the room with breakfast, but the hotel does offer Indonesian food. If you’re in your room, you can dial 1518 to connect to the next hotel — I think it’s called Zowar Hotel — and place an order. I tried calling them a few times, but either no one picked up or they told me the kitchen was closed (probably because I called late at night), so I didn’t get to try their food. However, there’s a great nearby Indonesian restaurant called Sunda Restaurant that I recommend for anyone looking for familiar flavors. In the hotel lobby, there’s a small bakery-style shop that sells cakes, bread, coffee, and tea — convenient for a quick bite or drink, although the staff there weren’t the friendliest. The room itself was excellent — very clean, comfortable, with consistently hot water, and I had no issues with anything inside. However, the hallway outside the room was a bit noisy, so if you’re a light sleeper, that’s something to keep in mind. One thing to be aware of is that housekeeping tends to knock and open the door with their key if there’s no answer — this happened to me once, so I recommend always responding right away if someone knocks. In conclusion, I highly recommend Odst Al Madinah Hotel for those who want to stay close to Masjid Nabawi but are also looking for a budget-friendly option. It offers great value for its location, comfort, and service, especially compared to other hotels in the same area.

Nettes Personal, gute Lage, in der Nähe der Nabawi-Moschee, in der Nähe des Food Court und des Souvenirladens, empfehlenswertes Hotel

Die Moschee liegt ganz in der Nähe des Haram (ca. 5–7 Gehminuten) auf einer ebenen Straße. Das Frauentor ist ebenfalls ganz in der Nähe. Sie befindet sich auf der anderen Seite des Haram. Wenn Sie also eine Reservierung für den Eintritt in die Rawdah haben, kommen Sie bitte frühzeitig, um pünktlich zu sein. Die Rezeptionisten waren sehr hilfsbereit und der Service war schnell. Ein Wasserkocher und ein Kühlschrank sind vorhanden. Eine Mikrowelle gibt es nicht. Ich durfte aufgrund der Zimmerverfügbarkeit vor der Check-in-Zeit (ca. 9–10 Uhr) eintreten (es gab einige nicht gebuchte Betten, aber ich hatte keine Einwände). Empfohlen. Besonders für junge Leute.

Ich habe gebucht und glaube, es ist in der Nähe von Haram, aber es ist ziemlich weit weg. Sie müssen etwa 4 bis 5 km zu Fuß nach Haram und Janatul Baqi gehen. Buchen Sie nicht, wenn Sie nicht gerne laufen oder ältere Leute sind.

Der Service ist sehr gut, aber selbst wenn es sich um ein Zimmer mit drei Personen handelt, gibt es wenig Toilettenpapier, und ich wurde gesagt, dass die Zeit für den Austritt nicht so früh wie die Zeit ist.
