False advertising.
Booked a club lounge room for drinks and snacks in the evening as my 3 previous visits. On check in was told the times for breakfast, lunch and evening snacks in the club lounge. When entering the club lounge in the evening I was told I had to book and pay extra for food and drinks due to Ramadan. The hotel said a message should have been sent but I received nothing. Had to take room service as the only option. I pointed out on their website that they still advertise club room access at a higher price.

Uncomfortable Stay
I stayed at the hotel for four nights. Upon arrival, I was initially assigned a smoking room despite requesting a non-smoking room. The receptionist thankfully addressed this issue promptly and relocated me to a suitable room the following day.
However, during my stay, I encountered two significant problems:
Noise Disturbance: The soundproofing between rooms was inadequate. I could clearly hear conversations from the adjoining room, which continued late into the night, disrupting my sleep on several occasions (e.g., until 3 AM).
Shower Drainage Issue: There was a blockage in the shower drain, which resulted in poor water drainage. Although the receptionist assured me that the issue had been resolved, it unfortunately persisted throughout my stay.

Horrible stay(s)!!
Unfortunately it will be my last stay in this hotel. Although the staff is trying to be helpful, the service and quality of the room is not up to the standard you should expect.
- last time i was charged twice the room after they insisted that my booking (already paid in advance by the company) was not paid and i had to pay a 2nd time.
- upon check-in the system was down (as often) so it took a lot of time just to get the room key.
- no hot shower in the morning unless you let the water run 20mn before you need it!!! And these days the weather is cold!! Not a pleasant feeling to wake up.
- no invoice available upon check-out (had to insist to have it sent by email later on)
- last but not least, my window in my room opens on its own due to the strong wind!! Came back at night, it was freezing!! And then in the middle of the night, it happened again!! Best part?? No handle to lock the window!!! I’ve never seen this before.
كانت رائعه ونشكر موظفي الاستقبال لتعاونهم الكبير معنا خاصة في الدخول مبكرا تقديرا منهم لظروف العمل فشكرا لهم والغرف كانت جيده جدا من حيث النظافه والنت كان ممتاز

Amazing hotel in a good location. The service provided by the staff is first class and the facilities are as you would expect for an Intercontinental Hotel. 5*
