Fabulous hotel

Fabulous 3 night stay. Staff in all areas of the hotel are extremely polite and cannot do enough for their guests. The communal areas are spotlessly clean and water and coffee are available all day in reception. The choice of food is excellent at breakfast and the waitors very attentive. The pool area is also extremely clean and well maintained. I would definitely recommend.

We came to the Radisson Blu for our anniversary, and we had the most amazing 24 hours. From the efficiency of the front desk to the amazing service in the lounge, the staff made our special day memorable. We also spent time at the pool which was clean and at a comfortable temperature. We also dined in the restaurant, Bo Sabi. The rolls and appetizers were delicious. It was a wonderful day.

Disappointing experience overall

Room was fine, except footprints in the shower and bathroom. After asking for this to be re-cleaned the hotel left a fruit basket in the room which could have been for 5 people, very wasteful. Breakfast was ruined by the front desk informing breakfast was open until 1130. Upon arriving at 1100 it was shut, no ownership taken by the front desk who didn’t seem to understand our annoyance. This could be a really good hotel but it’s let down by the small details

My family and I appreciate the two nights we spent at this hotel. Check in and check out were smooth and the food we had was great. We noticed that some parts of the hotel were under renovation and that had no impact on our stay. Our kids also enjoyed the time they spent at the playcare and crafts they made. The gym was a bit outdated but spacious and with plenty of equipment. My wife didn’t like that women weren’t allowed in the jacuzzi and that there was no time for women only to enjoy it. Regardless, we will stay at this hotel again.

We loved our stay. Family friendly hotel. The staff was very polite and friendly. Our room was spacious, and clean. The only thing is that smoking is allowed everywhere in the pool area, even infront of the kids pool! I guess that is more of a cultural thing but I find it very disappointing that adults dont care about kids well-being. Other than that I would highly recommend it and we will definitely stay here again.

Upon arriving at the hotel at 10:30 PM after a long journey, I was shocked when the receptionist informed me that the hotel was fully booked and only had a single-bed room available, with no extra beds because it was Eid al-Adha. I told him we had booked a room for three adults, all over 25 years old, and asked how a small single bed could possibly suffice. He responded that this was the hotel’s policy and apologized, saying it was all they had. This prompted me to speak with another receptionist, who dismissed the issue and repeated the same thing, claiming the hotel’s capacity policy allowed for three people in that room. I have photos showing the bed is barely enough for two people, let alone three. We were then told there was one additional room available, but it would cost 167 Bahraini Dinars, approximately 445 USD. Exhausted, I tried searching for another hotel, but unfortunately, the time wasn’t ideal for online booking as it was past midnight, marking the start of a new day. This meant that even if we booked another hotel, check-in would be between 12 PM and 3 PM, leaving us without a place to sleep for over 12 hours, especially since we were already exhausted from travel. We took a car and visited other hotels but couldn’t find a suitable booking. After an hour and a half, we returned to our hotel, and to our surprise, the receptionist informed us that, fortunately, someone had checked out, and a room with an extra bed was now available. Very bad experience!!!

The location of this hotel is great and so is the food and service. The rooms/suites are very spacious and were recently renovated nicely. The 3 pools are a good size for our kids and the lifeguards in site are very vigilant. Our kids also like the kid club and the activities they do. The gym is pretty big and never busy. Breakfast has a good selection and is worth including. Also, the restaurants at this hotel offer good food options and have a nice vibe.
