Al Fakhama Aldahbai Al-Shohada - The Golden Martyrs Luxury Hotel

Al Fakhama Aldahbai Al-Shohada sits on Sayed Al Shohada Street in Madinah's Bani Haritha district, north of the tower hotels that ring the Prophet's Mosque. It is about 2.3 km from the Haram, and the nearest entrance is King Fahd Gate on the north side. That is too far for a comfortable walk, so plan on a car or bus to reach prayers.

This budget hotel offers twin rooms with two separate beds, plus triple, quad and five-bed rooms. Rooms come with air conditioning, a flat-screen TV with satellite channels, a fridge, an electric kettle, a wardrobe and a private bathroom with a shower and free toiletries. There is an on-site restaurant and a café, and some listings mention a continental buffet breakfast.

The quad and five-bed rooms work well for families and groups; a maximum of two children under 6 is allowed. Services include a 24-hour front desk, a lift, free Wi-Fi in rooms and public areas, luggage storage, parking and CCTV in public areas. Pets are not allowed.
