Review summary
Based on recent reviews

Violet Al Shisha Hotel is favored for its cleanliness, modern rooms, and convenient free shuttle service to Al Haram available every hour, making visits to the mosque easier. The breakfast buffet is frequently praised for being extensive and delicious. A kids' playclub is available, and while some guests have found it to be somewhat dated, others appreciate the hotel's quiet location. Several shops nearby are open late, and the hotel's location is considered convenient, a short bus ride from Al Haram.

delicious foodquick service
The breakfast buffet had many options and delicious food. The hotel provided a dedicated bus service to the Haram , which saved a lot of time. I found several shops nearby where I could buy groceries. The room service responded quickly whenever I called extension 0.
The bus stop was somewhat far from the Haram.

The breakfast buffet had nice options. It was a TREAT. i found the shuttle service very convenient. the staff were friendly to requests.
my room did NOT have a window, so ventilation was poor. the soundproofing was not good, and there was a lot of noise. the location was quite far from al haram, which required a long bus ride.

Good Shuttle Service

free shuttlegood choicesslow flow
The free shuttle ran every hour to the Kaaba. It worked at all hours. Breakfast had a lot of good choices. Reception helped us quickly by providing water and toiletries. I liked the service and would use it again.
The shower tap on higher floors had slow water flow. It was hard to get a good stream. I think they should fix that soon.
