This was my second time I stayed there. Its very clean, helpful Egyptian staff and very close to the Masjid e nabawi. It is expensive however its literally a 3 min walk to the masjid. Breakfast is average which is ok. Rooms are clean and comfortable. We got lucky and got a room over seeing the Masjid e Nabawi.

I stayed 3 nights. The hotel has have a good location. Near to Al Haram in Medina. Good breakfast, clean, and comfort room. So u can focus on your religious activities I recommend for religious traveler to stay at Elaf Taiba.

I am amazed with the some of the reviews. People don't go there to stay in the hotel . We enjoyed our stay every minute of our stay. Come out of the hotel and you are in Haram. Food was excellent. We asked for special dish at dinner and it was accommodated. Hotel is bit old but after talking to... More

Have stayed before so it was quite nice. They serve great food but I was wirh a group so our food was arranged by our agent. But hotel breakfast... More

This hotel is literally opposite the Prophet's Mosque. You could hear the Adhan and leave your room and still be at the line up for prayer before the Adhan had finished. Lots of lists, lots of room and good value for money. Better than a lot of the 5* hotels in that area and is a great place to stay.... More

We visited Madina Munawara and Masjide Nabawi during the last week of Ramadam 2012. Elaf Taiba is based right opposite gate 15 of the haram (directly opposite from Movenpick). You can see masjide Nabawi from certain rooms in the hotel, and from the entrance. Location fantastic, which was one of our key crieteria for hotel selection. Staff are english speaking,... More
