    We spent, both my partner and myself, one night in Bab-Alshams hotel. We were very much attracted by the desert/charming nature of this hotel. Apart from the nice architecture (arabic/mauresque typical style) and the nice room, we hated almost everything! If you are looking for a small/boutique charming hotel, avoid this one. Despite the style, the service is closer to large volume based hotels rather than to small/boutique, personnalised high quality hotels. Service is far below what you may expect from a 5 stars hotel. Few examples: - the hostess that took us to the room was lost (!). We did the tour of the building to get there. - the hotel makes you paying 2 euros for international newspapers (which they print from the Internet aga

    Being away from the city and having not to walk or travel to far to get anywhere

    Having stayed at the hotel on a few occasions previoulsy, I would am a little disappointed by the fact that they have changed the levels in the pool and that they seem to be making it more family orientated

    Tle luxurious surroundings and the friendliness of the staff, the fact that even though the hotel was fully booked at no time we felt it was crowded

    The huge coackroach we saw on the floor just outside Al Forsam (?)restaurant and the number of mosquitos inside our room at night

    Breakfast was great, lots of varieties, good quality, room is ok but not a five star , tv is old model , house keeping is below standard

    Room is ok but not a five star , tv is old model , house keeping is below standard , no proper welcome drink, just cheap small glass of karkadet after such long drive in the desert, no cold towel , staff were busy chatting, obviously there is a lose control, for such price another desert experience could be much better.generally the place needs renovation to be able to sustain it's reputation.
