The room was cozy and comfortable. The only issues that I had were the shower did not have hot water and there was a urine smell that just would not go away. Overall, I really enjoyed myself. I will be back again.

The luxury details from lobby to restaurant/bar and my room were 10/10. The city views from both floor to ceiling glass windows in my suite were incredible. I had a great evening in the ballroom and would visit again. Probably should valet because fitting a large truck in the parking garage was stressful.

The Gulf Hotel is legendary in Bahrain and I appreciate its number of restaurants and access to Manama, but it is really too old and too worn down to be a 5 star hotel.
