Beautiful hotel

Pros: Stunning lobby, pool and view
Cons: At breakfast, soy milk was on request. I was hungry, ready to eat, and then all of a sudden had to stop everything and wait for the soy milk.
Location: 20 minutes to Grand Mosque and 5 minutes to Marina Mall.
The hotel lobby and pool were stunning. The view from the room was stunning, both night and day. The room itself was good but did not feel as stunning as the rest. Thoroughly enjoyed breakfast with great selection of Middle Eastern food (along with other food of course).

Dear Expedia Member, Thank you for taking the time to write your feedback on Expedia. We are happy to read that you were very pleased with our swimming pool facility, our variety of food selection, lobby and the view outside from your room where you stay. With regard to your comment about your dining experience in Horizon, as it is the hotel's main restaurant, guests may come all together at a certain time hence, they may have to wait for few minutes to be seated. Therefore, we would like to ask for your understanding if you experienced a delayed of getting your soy milk. It would always be our pleasure to welcome you back to Khalidiya Palace Rayhaan by Rotana, assuring you of our personalized service and best attention at all times. Yours sincerely, Eleni Tsolakou General Manager
