This is the most amazng, magical and luxurious hotel we have ever stayed in. If you want to be treated like a King or a Princess then stay here!! The staff are so so helpful and your own butler will do anything for you within seconds. We are well travelled but no other accomodation can beat this - it really... more

I was so excited about staying here after reading the reviews and looking at the pictures on-line. Despite what would amount to almost 1,000 a night I thought it would be a wonderful treat. Boy was I wrong...My husband, son and I arrived early at 6am and I did have hopes that we might get our room ahead of time,... more

This is a beautiful hotel marred by shambolic service. I stayed here twice in one week - with a night in between at a hotel in the desert. First check-in we arrived off a flight from UK at around 9 pm to be told room would not be ready until 2 pm. Fair enough. We asked our bags to be... more

I stayed at this hotel on a work trip for 6 nights. Our group took up several villas at Dar Al Masyaf and everyone was most impressed with everything! All the rooms are large with huge bathrooms.

We were greeted with a wet towel and some juice. My mobile number was taken so that we could feel free to wonder... more

Different people have different expectations to levels of accomodation, sevice and location. One should have one own's point of view and anyone else's is just a very very rough... more

My mum and dad took me to the Dar Al Masyaf in November 2007. The place is absolutely fabulous.I am amazed to see in a couple of other reviews that someone has found anything negative to say. I am returning in April for 10 days and i am so so so exited!!!!!!!!! i cant wait to sit and sip my... more

Stayed for 5 nights in a suite at the Dar Al Masyaf (Villa 25). The earlier reviews have captured a lot of my thoughts on this hotel but I would add the following: 1. The hotel arranges for express clearance through immigration at the airport. This is very valuable - the queue looked terrible (and don't believe the advertising -... more
