The Radiant City
Honored by Al-Masjid Al-Nabawi, one of the holiest mosques in Islam, Medina is the 2nd most important Islamic pilgrimage site after Mecca. Surrounded by hills that have seen hundreds of people seek refuge in its oasis, this city has developed a range of modern facilities to host the pilgrims from all over the world.
Formerly named Yathrib, Medina is affectionately known as both the "Prophet’s City" and the "Radiant City". The Prophet Muhammad came to the city in the 7th century, seeking refuge from his opponents. According to Muslim theology, the last chapters of the Quran were revealed to him here.
The site where the Prophet lived is now occupied by the Al-Masjid Al-Nabawi or "Prophet’s Mosque". Although the mosque has changed and expanded over the years, the green dome is part of the original sanctuary.
Places like the Masjid Quba mosque, the Masjid Al-Qiblatain mosque and the Al-Baqi Cemetery also represent important holy sites in Medina.

The hotel was so bad I don't recommend it. It was below the rating and the cost is expensive according to services. I the quality of food was bad in Ramadan; no place to sit did refill the buffet & it was not enough. In addition The room was not clean at all & old furniture and damaged!!??! Bad smell.

I enjoyed spending the last 5 days of Ramadaan, Eid al Fitr including first 5 days of Shawwaal in Madinah. I enjoyed the City Sightseeing Hop on Hop off bus. Highly recommended ... cost effective too.
“Totally different as shown in pictures. All images posted seems really old. The cleaning was not at par as a 4 star rated hotel.
The AC was not working in first room. I requested to change the room, it was same issue
I requested for refund and I commended the role of booking.com customer service role in this bad situation. They really helped to get my money refunded for the rest of the trip ”
“The hotel is located closest to Almasjid Alnabawi ladies' gates which was a big plus having my mother with me. All staff are supportive and friendly with big smile. I enjoyed the check in process which was smooth and I was accommodated for an early check in. I would like to send a special thanks for Ahmad from the reception for his hospitality and being so respectful. The hotel offers daily Arabic coffee and offers wheel chairs when needed.
Overall the hotel is worth 5 stars. ”
