AI Overview

Sharouq Al Safwa Dana sits on Ibrahim Al Khalil Road in Ash Shubaikah, on the western side of Masjid al-Haram.
That places it in a commonly used pilgrim corridor where many hotels rely on direct foot access toward the Shubaikah and King Fahd side of the mosque rather than long feeder transport.
Based on the supplied straight-line distance of about 1073 meters, a realistic walking route is longer, roughly 1373 meters to a practical men's entrance and about 1449 meters to a likely women-used entrance zone.
For most healthy adults this is still a manageable walk of about 17 to 18 minutes, so the property qualifies as genuinely walkable for Umrah purposes.
The main limitation is not distance but uncertainty of verified hotel-specific detail.
Publicly accessible sources confirmed the listing, address, and nearby Haram landmarks, but review coverage was sparse and did not provide strong evidence on shuttle service, musalla availability, Haram-view rooms, or consistent room-quality patterns.
For pilgrims, this means the hotel looks more suitable as a functional location choice than as a fully documented comfort-led stay.
If price is attractive, the key pre-booking checks should be lift reliability, room size, bathroom cleanliness, shuttle policy if any, and whether the specific room faces inward, roadway, or a partial Haram-side view.

What guests say

Verified review coverage appears very thin. Major booking aggregators surfaced the property listing, but Trip.com showed no posted reviews, while a map listing showed a small sample rating only. Because review volume is low, sentiment should be treated cautiously: the main usable signal is that the hotel is on Ibrahim Al Khalil in Ash Shubaikah, a generally practical pilgrim corridor west of the Haram, but there is not enough verified review text to confidently summarize repeated room-level positives or negatives.

Location on Ibrahim Al Khalil / Ash Shubaikah pilgrim corridor
Close enough to walk to the Haram for many pilgrims
Small map-listing sample suggests broadly acceptable stay experience
Very limited verified review volume found
No reliable cross-platform review text found to confirm repeated complaints
Amenities, shuttle, musalla, and Haram-view claims were not clearly documented in accessible sources

Pilgrim tips

  • 1.For this west-side Ash Shubaikah location, King Fahd Gate 79 is the most practical men's landmark entrance.
  • 2.Women should re-check current women-only access management on arrival, because Haram gate allocations can change seasonally, especially in Ramadan and peak Umrah periods.
  • 3.Although the hotel is walkable, allow extra time after Isha and around Friday prayer because crowd density on the final approach can slow walking materially.
  • 4.If traveling with elderly pilgrims or wheelchairs, a short taxi may be easier than walking back uphill or through dense foot traffic after prayers.
  • 5.Use the hotel address on Ibrahim Al Khalil when booking taxis, as nearby hotels and towers in Ash Shubaikah can sound similar.
  • 6.Buy light snacks or essentials before peak prayer times so you are not delayed in the denser Clock Tower/Haram retail zone.

Worship & getting around

🚗 ~53 min from the airport

No reliable source found confirming an in-house musalla or Haram-view room category. Treat both as unverified and confirm directly with the hotel before booking.

Taxis should be readily available on Ibrahim Al Khalil Road because it is a major hotel-and-pilgrim corridor; ride-hailing and street taxis are both commonly used in this area.
