Anjum Hotel Makkah has been awarded the coveted Best Luxury Hotel in Makkah 2025 title by Luxury Lifestyle Awards, an accolade that underscores its refined comfort, spiritual accessibility, and guest-focused service. Strategically located on Umm Al Qura Street in the Jabal Al Kaaba, the hotel is just minutes from Al Masjid Al Haram. Guests often report reaching the mosque’s newer expansions in around five minutes. Anjum further enhances access through private escalators and an underpass leading toward the Haram boundary.
Reflecting its motto, “Where Hospitality Meets Spirituality,” Anjum Hotel Makkah has tailored an experience tailored to the needs of modern pilgrims. With 1,717 fully renovated rooms and suites, the hotel blends modern luxury with subtle Hijazi touches, including Andalusian-inspired design motifs in guest rooms and communal spaces. The renovation, completed in 2020, introduced a full spectrum of accommodations—from Classic and Deluxe to Executive, Diplomatic, and Grand Presidential Suites—each outfitted with high-end finishes, espresso machines, prayer mats with Qurans, and blackout drapes for restful stays.
Guests consistently praise the spaciousness and cleanliness of the rooms, alongside the attentiveness of the housekeeping and front-line teams. Notable mentions across online reviews commend individual staff members for going above and beyond, particularly during peak seasons like Ramadan. Expedia and Reddit users echo these sentiments, highlighting the property’s consistency in room upkeep, service delivery, and overall comfort.
One of Anjum’s standout features is its breakfast buffet, which draws praise for its variety, quality, and presentation. Guests enjoy an expansive international spread served across two main dining venues—Al Hijaz Restaurant and Um Al Qura Restaurant—featuring Turkish, Moroccan, Southeast Asian, and Middle Eastern options. For lighter fare, Al Shubaikah Café offers smoothies, snacks, and quick meals in a relaxed, casual setting.
Spiritual care remains central to the hotel’s service philosophy. Prayer areas are available, along with gender-segregated quiet zones. Anjum also provides complimentary wheelchairs, accommodates guests with limited mobility, and offers tailored assistance such as meal packing for disabled visitors and in-room tailoring services.
For suite guests, the Heraa Lounge on the 26th floor presents a peaceful escape with panoramic Haram views, a private prayer space, and complimentary refreshments.
The property also features a landscaped outdoor piazza with a café—the only one of its kind in Makkah—allowing guests to relax in a tranquil space away from the bustle.
In terms of guest convenience, Anjum delivers on every front: 24-hour room service, a multilingual concierge, valet parking, retail shops (including a dates store, an oud and bakhour boutique, and a minimarket), and the largest hotel parking facility in Makkah with 260 spaces and EV charging. The hotel also ensures effortless connectivity with complimentary high-speed Wi-Fi, 42” flat-screen TVs, USB ports, and efficient vertical access via 26 elevators.
Beyond facilities, Anjum’s atmosphere makes it particularly appealing for families, elderly travelers, and those requiring extra care. The focus is less on external entertainment and more on offering a self-contained sanctuary—a place that aligns with the purpose of pilgrimage while ensuring modern-day ease.
In summary, Anjum Hotel Makkah serves as a pilgrimage partner, merging spiritual intention with thoughtful hospitality. Its proximity to the Haram, extensive amenities, and deep cultural alignment have earned it recognition not only from award committees but also from thousands of satisfied guests. For travelers seeking a balance between value, location, and service, Anjum remains a standout choice in the heart of Makkah.
