Excellent stay
Pros:

We recently stayed at the Holiday Inn Hotel Olaya and had a wonderful experience from start to finish. The room was spotless, comfortable, and well-appointed, providing a relaxing retreat after our days of exploring the city. The staff were attentive, friendly, and genuinely committed to making our stay enjoyable.

A standout moment was the excellent service at the hotel’s restaurant. Rana, in particular, provided exceptional hospitality—greeting us with a smile, offering thoughtful recommendations, and ensuring every meal was perfectly prepared to our liking. Her attention to detail and positive attitude made meals there a highlight of our stay.

We also appreciated the efficient check-in process, the convenient location, and the overall value for the quality of service. We would gladly return to Holiday Inn Hotel Olaya and would not hesitate to book again, largely thanks to Rana’s outstanding service in the restaurant.

Thank you to the entire team for making our trip memorable. Highly recommended!

Home away from home
Pros:

I stayed at this hotel for an extended period during a business trip, and the team ensured my stay was comfortable and seamless throughout. The staff are consistently professional, warm, and welcoming.

A special mention to Mr. Muzaffar, Mr. Rana, Mr Sha Alam, the chefs, and the housekeeping team for their outstanding hospitality and attention to detail.

The rooms are spacious and well-lit, and both breakfast and dinner offer an excellent variety of options. If you’re planning a long stay in Riyadh, I would highly recommend Holiday Inn Olaya.
