What a fantastic property in an excellent location. Walking distance to major attractions and the tram, which is cheap to use! A lovely clean property and fantastic helpful, polite and professional staff. Great buffet breakfast! Would happily stay there again. Had a wonderful time made all the better because of the hotel stay and staff. Thank you Carina!

We went in January and did not realize the Mosque was under heavy restoration efforts. The bulk of the work was internal so we missed out on the beautiful tile work inside.

3/5 - Okay

Verified traveler

Currently under restoration limited view of the inside ceilings. but still worth a trip

2/5 - Disappointing

Verified traveler

this place is over crowded and under construction, looks good from the outside but pointless from the inside.

3/5 - Okay

Verified traveler

It is under construction and you can only see a little of the inside.

3/5 - Okay

Rusty

Undergoing a major renovation. There was almost no line to enter and there was no cost, so I think it was worth the visit, but prepare to be underwhelmed once inside. Don't forget about prayer times. Visitors are not allowed inside during these times. If you can find the times, they are posted outside the mosque.

3/5 - Okay

Verified traveler

Almost entirely under reconstruction interiorly- some exterior work being done as well. I recommend waiting 5 years to come.
