Boudl Al Corniche

There are plenty of restaurants nearby, so finding food wasn't an issue. Just keep in mind that breakfast isn't offered here, which surprised me. Parking is available, though it can be a squeeze with a large car. It worked fine for a quick overnight stop.

The location is amazing, and the room itself was good, but the furniture felt very old and it wasn't very clean, unfortunately. There’s only one room with windows and twin beds, and that one faces the pools, so it gets really noisy.

The hotel’s sea view made the location just right for me. We were staying with family, and the place was clean, quiet, and good value. There’s a small gym and a kids’ playroom on the fifth floor. My room was spacious, nicely decorated, and had the modern amenities I needed. The beds were comfortable, I slept well, and housekeeping kept everything spotless. The lobby looked elegant, too, and check-in was quick and easy. Staff were attentive and welcoming from the moment I arrived. One thing I’d rate lower was room service: the food presentation and plastic cutlery could be better. Still, Boudl Corniche hotel gave us a comfortable stay with excellent service, and I’d return.

I’d already paid more than 550 SAR per night for a two-bedroom hotel booking for two nights. My partner then had emergency work, and I asked if the main reservation could be changed to my name so I could stay. They refused because of their policy, even though the email and cell number were mine. I lost the money, and I found that policy unprofessional.
