10/10 Excellent

We have used the Gulf hotel many times over the years and always enjoyed our stays in both the hotel rooms and apartments. The staff are so friendly and helpful and cannot do enough for you. The pool is lovely and there are loads of on-site dining options. Or if you don’t want to eat in the hotel, there are plenty of other restaurants within walking distance. We love the place so much we are already looking at booking another stay next year!

Mohamad, 2-night trip

6/10 Okay

Fantastic location but the check in was extremely slow, we had to wait over 45 mins in line to receive the keys to our room. The luggage service was also slow, I asked them to allow to take my own bags to the room. Other than that, room was clean and met our needs, it’s not the first time we stay here, but we decided to provide feedback to see some improvements in the future.
Luis, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

First class hotel great value for the price.
Jacqueline, 1-night trip

6/10 Okay

Ceiling started leaking water through the lights and all they did was move rooms for a few hours and no offer of compensation or anything to make us more comfortable after a very scary event from an overflowing bath tub above us
AMANDA J, 5-night trip

8/10 Good

Nice hotel but pool area is very tired

Nice hotel close to the shopping mall and only 15 minutes from the airport. Pool area is very tired with broken tiles and faded woodwork. Sunbeds are old and not enough side tables. Nice breakfast with huge fresh selection. Lots of other nice restaurants on site too. I would recommend staying here but pool area definitely needs a massive refurbishment. Hopefully now it’s a Marriot they will make the improvements needed
Kelly, 5-night trip

10/10 Excellent

The Gulf hotel is in an excellent location for dining options. I’ve stayed many times and this time was lovely to see all the Christmas and National Day decorations. The effort they put in made our stay more special this time - magical!

Amazing time in Bahrain.

Great location and what an amazing stay at this hotel. Variety of restaurants, gym was good and the spa was amazing. Highly recommend the Iranian and Thai restaurants. Warm and very friendly staff.
Indar, 2-night trip

2/10 Terrible

Staff and the main areas of the hotel are really nice. Our room however not so. We booked a non smoking room and the first thing you smelt was stale tobacco. The air con was so cold that the bed was damp and smelt like it had been damp for quite a while. It was so cold we turned off the air con but never got any sleep. Colder than camping in Wales in the spring. The decor is very dated and there was a very strange odour in the bathroom. The swimming pool was in need of a lot of repairs too. Lots of tiles missing and the edges were very rickety and felt unsafe. Stayed in quite a few hotels and this was one of the worst. Very disappointed as it wasn't cheap either.
Karen, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

The hotel was amazingly beautiful and the staff were professional, helpful and friendly. Very comfortable stay. The room was emaculate.
