This is such a depressing place. While security barricades make one feel somewhat secure, the lobby is as quiet as a morgue, except for a bunch of old men sitting around smoking. I have stayed a many Marriotts around the world, and find this one to be seriously in need of a facelift. The rooms are quiet, and the bed... more

Spent two nights in the Marriott due to a business trip to Riyadh. I was very satisfied with the hotel, and wished I could have spent some more time in the comfortable bed, instead of attending meetings all day (and night) long. To start with, the entrance is well protected against violence. i.e. there is security screening and cars cannot... more

Good Mariott hotel but not well located. Far from downtown (cab necessary - not walking distance) more

Stayed here for a few days this March. The hotel is clean and quiet. It is not really near anything and requires a taxi to get anywhere. The hotel staff was very helpful and courteous. We ate at the Mosaic a few times. The salad buffet was very nice. It was expensive but had a nice assortment of food including... more

I have stayed with the Marriott on many occasions around the world. I have to say that this Marriott is probably one of the oldest. The decor was ancient but it was clean. From the lobby you wouldn't know how drab the rooms look. They are a good size and the bed is comfortable but the room itself is almost... more

Service I am currently staying in the Mariott Hotel, Riyadh. It was booked through the company where I am working. The 'at your service' option in the Hotel is quite bad and leaves a lot to be desired. In the first few days, I requested for a longer DSL cable for Internet. Someone came back with a electricity plug instead.... more

I stayed at the Riyadh Marriott from July 15-18, thinking it would be standard Marriott quality- certainly not. First, the location. There isn't anything close by/within walking distance, except to say the airport is only ~25-30 minutes by car. To get downtown, it's a 15-25 minute taxi, depending on traffic. The interior of the hotel seems like it's out of... more

This hotel is horrible, it is very old and not worth the price we paid. The room is dull with a very little window and old cupboards and bathroom- think 20 years old. This is not Marriott standard. Tried the breakfast 1out of the 3 days i stayed and it wasn't great plus it cost an extra 80SR!! more

Excellent hotel, I stayed here for 5 months this year. The rooms are good. You can always get a good nights sleep. The hotel is clean and well looked after. The breakfast is the best I've ever seen in a hotel. The only negative thing about the hotel might be that it's a bit old, so it has an older... more

Its a Marriott! Hard to know what else to say, really. Clean, comfortable, good bedroom, comfortable bed. I had a good nights sleep in a quiet room. Reception and staff are all good. A nice atrium style central area, lifts that look down onto the inner atrium. I had 2 dinners in the Restaurant, which was quiet, but had a... more
