My Evaluation Of The Jumeirah Jabal Omar Makkah Resort
I used to be so excited to go to the Jabal Omar Makkah Resort and evaluation the property, which is the final one within the entrance row of the event. I had seen the indicators for years prior, so I used to be so excited once they requested me to evaluation the property.
I used to be supplied three nights to strive the resort; nevertheless, MuslimTravelGirl paid for all flights and incidentals within the resort and spent cash whereas there. The evaluation is my trustworthy opinion of the property with none interference from the resort.
That is the final resort within the entrance row of the Jabal Omar growth in Makkah. Since I’ve reviewed all the opposite lodges within the entrance row, I used to be so excited to have the chance to evaluation the Jumeirah Jabal Omar Makkah as nicely. I really feel it’s a welcome addition to the competitors of five-star lodges in Makkah.
The query – Which is one of the best resort in Makkah? Is without doubt one of the hottest on this web site, in addition to on my YouTube channel.
The resort is situated simply after Conrad Makkah and occupies the entire block of 4 towers, with 1100 rooms obtainable at complete capability. In the course of the off-season, they don’t function all 4 towers, solely two. They stated they function at full capability throughout Ramadan and Hajj.
As anticipated, Jumeirah’s customer support could be felt all through the resort. Contemplating that a few of the nicest lodges in Dubai are in Jumeirah, together with Burj Al Arab, you’ll be able to’t ship something much less.
This Umrah journey was a ladies’ journey solely. I made a decision to take my greatest buddy and our daughters, and I’m so glad we did this. We had a lot enjoyable and created superb recollections.
Verify-in
The check-in course of was environment friendly and quick. Hanan, the woman who checked us in, was fast and really skilled.
They’ve a number of check-in desks, so I don’t assume there can be delays except it’s peak time. We checked in at 1 pm, and even check-out was environment friendly at midday once we left.
One factor I really like concerning the Center East is that we needed to stroll for a bit between Conrad and Jumeirah because of the taxi, and the safety guard noticed us and requested if we have been going to Jumeirah. He then took a few of the suitcases to assist us out.
That is the customer support I might count on. He didn’t even know I used to be reviewing the resort.
Suite at Jumeirah Jabal Omar Makkah
The event is analogous by way of room structure and design to the remainder of Jabal Omar, particularly Conrad and Hyatt, that are the opposite two direct opponents.
The furnishings and decor are all Jumeirah, so they’re of fine high quality and really feel stress-free and splendid with out being excessive. I really feel that is the place the lodges can differentiate and emphasize the distinctive type of every model.
We got a Deluxe one-bedroom suite with a Haram view with twin-size beds. I wasn’t conscious of what they might provide once we agreed on the evaluation, however the suite was large enough to accommodate all 4 of us.
The dual beds simply accommodate an grownup and a toddler, which is the place I slept with my daughter. We pushed the mattress in the direction of the wall, and it was protected and really comfy.
The lounge was a nook with floor-to-ceiling home windows and a Haram view. Like a lot of the growth, the property doesn’t have Kabah views, however they do have Haram views.
Our suite had a sitting room with a settee and an armchair, which have been comfy and good place to have meals and chill out, particularly in case you have youngsters who sleep sooner than you.
They positioned our two rollaway beds subsequent to the window, which was nice since I slept after Fajr with Haram views. Plus, their rollaway beds have been very comfy.
The bed room was windowless, and though it was slightly darkish within the day with out the sunshine on, the women loved their room. They principally kicked us out of the room and allotted us the rollaway beds.
The bed room additionally had a desk and a chair, and there was sufficient area for an additional rollaway or suitcases if wanted.
Like all of the others, the room had espresso and tea-making amenities. Subsequent to the entrance door, there’s a wardrobe, and you’ll match garments there for per week.
Toilet Jumeirah Makkah Resort Evaluation
This Jumeirah Jabal Omar Makkah suite had just one lavatory on the entrance, which was spacious and splendid. The toiletries have been from Amouage, a high-end model within the Center East. I didn’t use the shampoo and conditioner, however the physique lotion smelled good and felt good.
There’s a shelf within the lavatory the place you’ll be able to put your individual toiletries. I simply want there was slightly extra space for placing your individual issues and toiletry bag as a girl. However this can be a basic resort factor relatively than Jumeirah Makkah’s drawback solely.
General, the toilet is akin to the remainder of the 5-star lodges within the Makkah Jabal Omar growth.
Meals at Jumeirah Jabal Omar Makkah
Since my daughter was born, I normally select lodges with lounge entry or eating places as we eat there more often than not. In case you are doing an Umrah through the summer season, it’s also extra handy, realizing we’ll discover one thing she is going to eat.
So, I really feel I’ve understanding of the remainder of the five-star resort eating places within the Jabal Omar growth.
I’ve to say the Jumeirah Makkah Jabal Omar restaurant Patras, the place we ate most of our dinners, affords some scrumptious meals, and the employees made the expertise even higher.
They have been attentive not solely to us but additionally to all of the company, and several other occasions, they helped a girl subsequent to us who was alone together with her little one.
I at all times really feel {that a} five-star resort is greater than furnishings; it’s made by the employees, and I might not count on much less from Jumeirah Makkah.
We had most of our meals there, and each night time, they supplied one thing totally different, so there was loads of selection.
One of many youngsters’ winners was the youngsters’ nook. They arrange a nook with savory and candy snacks for the youngsters with youngsters’ tables.
The youngsters liked it and talked day by day about it. The primary day, my daughter was upset that they solely opened within the night.
I actually assume it’s an superior thought, and I really feel the remainder of the lodges are lacking a degree there. It’s nothing tremendous troublesome to do; there are such a lot of youngsters and households on Umrah that it’s going to simply make it extra entertaining for them. So it’s a nice thought.
We additionally had lunch there sooner or later, and it was a la carte service solely. Value-wise, the Patras restaurant was good worth for cash, contemplating you’re in a five-star resort in Makkah. I discovered it just like costs in UK eating places.
Their pizza, youngsters’ pasta, butter rooster, and blended grill have been all scrumptious, and I might advocate them.
Laundry and Room Service at Jumeirah Jabal Omar Makkah Evaluation
We had just a few room service deliveries and laundry, they usually have been environment friendly and quick.
They gave us our laundry again in just a few hours, which is superb as a result of I used the laundry within the Hyatt and Conrad, which positively took longer.
Costs are additionally akin to UK lodges. My abaya laundry was 45 SAR. Contemplating I journey to Umrah with 2 abayas and carry-on baggage, I at all times do laundry in lodges only for comfort, and I issue on this value. I do have a masterclass the place I discuss how I get monetary savings for touring and people incidentals.
The room service we ordered was additionally quick and good. Our ginger tea was with actual ginger and a giant flask, so it was well worth the 30 SAR we paid for.
Location
The Jumeirah Jabal Omar Makkah Resort is without doubt one of the final 4 towers of the Jabal Omar growth, simply after Conrad. You possibly can both stroll to the walkways subsequent to the Intercontinental or go straight from C1 and stroll up the escalator behind the bathrooms.
Since it’s a front-row location, it took us 10 minutes to stroll from our room to the Kabah space throughout Asr.
Like the remainder of the lodges, C1 has a small mall, however since it’s nonetheless new, there are solely 2 outlets.
Bin Dawoud grocery store and the remainder of the lodges and meals areas could be reached inside minutes, both from contained in the mall or by strolling outdoors on the road.
General, the placement could be very akin to the Conrad and Hyatt lodges. I’ve a full YouTube video of the Umrah coming quickly, and I took movies of the placement for many who are extra visible, like myself.
General
The Jumeirah Makkah Resort is a superb addition to the Jabal Omar lodges. It’s a five-star resort with good customer support, which is to be anticipated from the Jumeirah model. Count on these costs, however if you’re a Westerner coming for Umrah and have a selection between the remainder of the lodges within the growth, positively think about staying.
We didn’t have any complaints, and I’ll fortunately pay money to remain there once more.
