AI Overview

Hotel Makarem Almahboube is in Al Naqa, west to southwest of Al-Masjid an-Nabawi, in a zone commonly used for budget pilgrim accommodation.
Public package listings repeatedly place it near Gate 6, which aligns reasonably well with the provided coordinates and the straight-line distance of about 751 meters.
For most able-bodied pilgrims, the mosque is realistically walkable.
A conservative real-world estimate is about 900 meters and 11 minutes to the nearest men's side approach, while women should allow around 1100 meters and 14 minutes because the dedicated women's access is farther around the mosque perimeter.
This does not look like a luxury stay; it looks like a functional group hotel chosen for value and acceptable access.
Verified public details point to 24 hour reception, Wi-Fi, a restaurant, 10 floors, 4 lifts, and roughly 130 rooms, which is suitable for group turnover but does not by itself indicate high-end comfort.
The main uncertainty is review depth.
I found evidence that the property is active and used by pilgrim operators, but strong cross-verified Booking.com, Google, and TripAdvisor sentiment was not available under this exact hotel name, so the review-derived scoring here is intentionally conservative.

What guests say

This appears to be a basic budget pilgrim hotel in Al Naqa used by Umrah and Hajj groups. Verified public review data is sparse, but the recurring picture is a simple 3 star stay valued mainly for proximity to the Prophet's Mosque rather than for upscale comfort.

Walkable to Al-Masjid an-Nabawi
Used by organized pilgrim groups
24 hour front desk
Wi-Fi and restaurant are listed
Multiple lifts in a mid-rise building
Very limited major booking-site review coverage found
No strong evidence of premium amenities
Likely functional rather than modern rooms
Shuttle service not clearly verified

Pilgrim tips

  • 1.For men, this hotel is most often marketed as being convenient for Gate 6, so that is the simplest mosque approach to test first on arrival.
  • 2.For women, expect a longer walk than the men's side because the dedicated women's access is on the mosque's eastern side.
  • 3.Leave 10 to 15 minutes earlier around Maghrib, Isha, and Jumuah because the pavements and crossings around the mosque become much slower than map distance suggests.
  • 4.If traveling with elderly pilgrims or wheelchairs, use a taxi for at least one daily round trip during peak crowd periods even though the mosque is walkable.
  • 5.Because review coverage is thin, confirm room location, lift access, and bathroom setup directly with the hotel or your agent before booking group elders here.

Worship & getting around

🚗 ~25 min from the airport

I could verify 24 hour reception, Wi-Fi, restaurant, 10 floors, 4 lifts, and about 130 rooms from Umrah package listings, but I could not verify an in-hotel musalla or Haram-view rooms from reliable public sources.

Taxis and app-based cars should be easy to obtain because the hotel is in the central Madinah pilgrim zone.
