Staff was exceptional front desk housekeeping and restaurants
The luxury details from lobby to restaurant/bar and my room were 10/10. The city views from both floor to ceiling glass windows in my suite were incredible. I had a great evening in the ballroom and would visit again. Probably should valet because fitting a large truck in the parking garage was stressful.
We have used the Gulf hotel many times over the years and always enjoyed our stays in both the hotel rooms and apartments.
The staff are so friendly and helpful and cannot do enough for you.
The pool is lovely and there are loads of on-site dining options. Or if you don’t want to eat in the hotel, there are plenty of other restaurants within walking distance.
We love the place so much we are already looking at booking another stay next year!
Great location and what an amazing stay at this hotel. Variety of restaurants, gym was good and the spa was amazing. Highly recommend the Iranian and Thai restaurants. Warm and very friendly staff.
The Gulf hotel is in an excellent location for dining options. I’ve stayed many times and this time was lovely to see all the Christmas and National Day decorations. The effort they put in made our stay more special this time - magical!
Great Hotel in a perfect location, lots of good restaurants in the Hotel itself and in the surrounding area. Staff at the hotel were marvellous and the rooms were to a good standard and very clean. We had a really good stay and will stay there again.
Stayed here a few times when over from Saudi Arabia on a trip with colleagues. Always great service, responsive to requests .

I’ve stayed here many times over the years, and it will always be my go to whenever I’m in Bahrain. The hotel is centrally located, making it very convenient whether you’re here for business or leisure. There’s a great selection of restaurants on-site, my favorite is the Japanese, followed closely by the Mexican.
The highlight of my stay was spending the whole day at the pool, where Sunday and David took excellent care of me. They truly went above and beyond to make the experience memorable.
Yes, this is an older hotel, and you notice it as soon as you walk in. But that’s never been an issue for me. I actually appreciate well maintained classic hotels, as long as they’re clean and have everything I need.
Thank you, Gulf Hotel!
