Qasr Burqu

Pleasant stay and friendly staff

The place was very outdated but still clean. Staff were helpful. Breakfast was very limited, unappealing. Location was close to many walkable places and restaurants. Sufra Restaurant is a must.

Maybe it was just our room that made me not like this hotel. Yes, it is in a great location, with an amazing little cafe a 1 minute walk away, Shababeek Albalad Cafe. But, the room shape was weird and inconvenient. It wasn't now square or rectangular. This meant some areas were spacious, while you had to squeeze into other areas. The shower shape was the worst. Being only about 40 centimeters wide at the front, and maybe 70 centimeters at the back. This thin shower, combined with a shower curtain that hung several centimeters off the floor, combined for a awful shower where the bathroom floor gets soaked, even with towel on the floor, and the wet shower curtain keeps sticking to you as you try to shower. If other rooms have better, more functional designs, the hotel is worth staying in, if you can guarantee one of those rooms.
