Gardino Hotel & Residence

Stayed here a few nights. It's fine. Beds are comfortable and room is fine.. room I was in overlooks into the courtyard.. so no exterior window. Gym timings are a bit funny for me as mornings are ladies only so can only go at night or evening which is not my preference. Overall it's not bad. Breakfast is ok.. not amazing but certainly it's ok. I felt it wasn't great value for money but j think because it was Riyadh season all rates were high. It is closeby to the zone which has a bunch of restaurants. There is also this cool query weird Chinese restaurant nearby that must be tried just for the experience it's called le gourmet.. I would stay here again if needs be and is convenient for my work.

There is no word strong enough in any vocabulary as to how poor the service is at this establishment. The staff are rude and damn right out of order. To the point my colleague and I left and sought a different hotel as enough was enough. If you are a business traveller stay away. And KSA wonders why people from the west don’t want to come here. This is prime example of why to stay away. I’ve never been treated like this in Europe, the US or Asia this is simply horrendous and unacceptable.
