classy five star hotel, comfortable rooms, restaurant with the most complete menu in Shofwa Tower, hygienic clean, monitor screen available to see the cleanliness of the hotel kitchen. The distance to the Grand Mosque is only three escalators directly to the Grand Mosque yard. friendly, polite, quality service. I highly recommend staying at Ghufran while in Makkah.

Room for four pax, spacious, enough space for prayers and to open big bags. There is a carton bottle zam zam water provided, truly appreciated it. We can hear in the room the call for Azan, the prayer itself because there is speaker in the room. The room is completed with bath amenities, kettle, iron, sachets of tea and nescafe. the restaurant served great selection Asia food, even sambal in every meals. Near to the masjidil haram, take the lift down and just walk a bit to the main gate.

They are distinguished in everything: luxury, cleanliness, organization, and sound insulation in the rooms and other services provided by them, and also the items provided by the restaurant in breakfast and in room service are delicious and distinctive, and the morals of the employees are excellent in the reception and workers department and they have good cooperation. We only suffered from the smell of cigarettes emanating from the rooms of one of the guests, may God guide him. The reception was informed and they cooperated, may God reward them well.

If you’re looking for a restaurant that caters to every craving and preference, this is the place to visit. With an extensive menu spanning global cuisines, there’s something here for everyone. From Italian pasta and wood-fired pizzas to sizzling Asian stir-fries and hearty American burgers, the variety is truly impressive. They even offer vegan, vegetarian, and gluten-free options, ensuring no diner feels left out.
The ambiance is inviting, with a modern yet cozy vibe that makes it perfect for both casual outings and special occasions. The staff are attentive and knowledgeable, often making excellent recommendations for pairing dishes with drinks from their well-stocked bar.
One of the highlights is their live cooking stations, where chefs prepare dishes right in front of you, adding a touch of theater to your meal. The dessert selection is equally expansive, with decadent cakes, refreshing sorbets, and artisanal pastries that cater to all sweet tooths.
While the prices are slightly above average, the quality, portion sizes, and diversity justify the cost. It’s a culinary haven for adventurous eaters and comfort food lovers alike. Highly recommended for anyone looking to explore a world of flavors under one roof.

The service is very special, the cleanliness is excellent and special The room service and the restaurant are also very clean, and the staff are very respectful, especially the one called Ammar. I stay there every year and I am very happy with you. The reception staff were very respectful to me, as the rooms were changed as soon as I asked them to do so, as the room was small.

The quality of the pillows is nice, the rooms are quiet, and I do not hear what is happening in the neighboring rooms unless the sound is very loud, such as an alarm clock. This is the opposite of what happens in other hotels.
Their customer service is also very good
Safwat Al Ghufran is my favorite hotel and this is not the first time I have stayed there.
In order to avoid any inconvenience in the event of early check-in to the hotel, I wished there was guidance regarding the lack of vacancies upon arrival or a recommendation to book a night before the actual stay in order to avoid any inconvenience.

Al-Ghufran Hotel is frankly one of the most beautiful hotels that can be visited in terms of distance to the sanctuary, cleanliness, good treatment, and the morals of the staff. The restaurant and the arrangement of the items are distinctive and suitable for most of those present and the reception.
I would like to thank Mr. Ammar at the cashier, Mr. Youssef at the reception, the restaurant manager Ayman, and all the distinguished employees at the hotel
