I stayed here for two nights during a short visit to Bahrain, mainly looking for an affordable option as many hotels were quite expensive. To my surprise, this hotel turned out to be a very good choice for the price. The room was huge, with a big king bed, a nice lobby, and helpful staff. The room itself was clean and comfortable.
The only downsides were the bathroom, which didn’t feel as clean as the rest of the room, and the shower door had gaps that made the floor wet. The location isn’t the best, but in Bahrain it’s manageable since taxis are easy to get and distances are short.
Overall, great value for money if you’re looking for a comfortable stay without high expectations.
The hotel's location is excellent and the services are well-organized. I always stay here, but this time they gave me a room on the second floor where the water heater wasn't working – only the switch light was on, and the shower water was cold. Unfortunately, there was also a lot of noise from the people staying above us, so the soundproofing is poor. The bed pillows were dirty too, and I believe I should be compensated for this.
The room is large and there are many choices of restaurants and cafes nearby, making it suitable for business trips. The hotel is equipped with a gym and an outdoor swimming pool.
The Juffair Grand Hotel is a solid choice for travelers seeking convenience, nightlife, and decent amenities in Manama. It’s not perfect but it’s a good value for the price.
The room was very spacious. I requested a smoking room, which was great for lighting incense. If you want a good view, definitely ask for a higher floor. Make sure to ask the front desk for toiletries, otherwise, there won't be toothbrushes or anything. The staff on the first floor were also very kind, and the restaurant on the 28th floor offered an all-you-can-eat meat feast.
Room was spotless, everything was perfectly arranged, nice view, great layout, good parking, and professional, friendly staff. Only minor distraction was a slight ”funk” just as you walked in. Could have been an overused mop, not sure, but the rest of the place was more than fine.
We stayed here for the 3rd Asian Youth Games. We booked a room with breakfast, and it was awesome. Room is made everyday, in general, excellent service. Though we have not tried it, they have a gym with a small pool. They also have a massage and spa on site. It would be nice if they have a shuttle that operated to/from airport though uber service is easy to use.
This was in Juffair which is a party district, but I was on the 12th floor so luckily couldn't hear the noise from the various night clubs in the hotel.
The mall next doors doesn't have much in it , but the location is pretty close to most places and convenient.
I wouldn't really stay here with family, but it's perfect for a 1 night transit.
It is a very nice hotel, a bit pricey though.
They service is impeccable and their team is very courteous
The apartments looks similar to photos and clean.
A special thank you to Avinash from house keeping team. I was sick and he noticed that while doing the regular housekeeping and he brought a blanket and kept checking on me and offered to get me any thing from outside. That goes beyond his job and I'm very thankful for that. Thanks again
I arrived earlier than the official check-in time and requested an early check-in. Since rooms were available, my request was kindly granted, which I really appreciated.
The location is not crowded, and not noisy at all. I took the A1 bus from the airport and got off at Palace Ave 2 Stop, which is about a 650 meters walk to the hotel. There’s also another bus stop just 280 meters away that I used to go to Bab Al Bahrain, Manama Terminal, Seef, City Center, Bahrain Bay, and The Avenues.
All the staff were very nice and accommodating.. from security and reception to housekeeping and restaurant staffs. The breakfast is good too, with decent options to choose from.
Overall, my short weekend trip to Bahrain was wonderful, and my stay at Ibis Styles Diplomatic Area made it even better.

AAmir wangAn excellent new hotel that exceeded my expectations. Although the lobby is quite small, the room itself is incredibly spacious with expansive views. The high ceilings and large windows offer a fantastic perspective of Bahrain's famous landmarks. The bedding was superb, and the service was top-notch. While the sushi bar for dinner was a bit pricey, the food was absolutely delicious.
LLady KwenadiOriental Palace Hotel, Manama – Central but Dated
Oriental Palace Hotel in Manama is centrally located, making it convenient for travelers who want easy access to Manama Souq, nearby restaurants, shops, and main transport routes. The location is the hotel’s strongest advantage.
However, despite the convenience, the rooms are very old and not clean, and the furnishings are clearly outdated. Maintenance and cleanliness do not meet acceptable standards, which significantly affects comfort. The hotel has an old-school character, but unfortunately this comes across more as neglect than charm.
Staff members are polite and generally helpful, and check-in and check-out are straightforward. Service is acceptable, but it does not compensate for the condition of the rooms.
Overall, while the hotel may appeal to travelers on a tight budget who prioritize location over comfort, it is important to note that hotels in Manama are generally very expensive, and for the price paid, the quality here does not offer good value. Travelers seeking cleanliness, modern facilities, or comfort may want to explore other options.

GGuest UserThe room was big and clean. With the hot weather, it’s multiple carpark was great! It’s basic that provided in the room but they responded fast to our request whenever we needed. Two downsides were the aircon was noisy, and the mattress wasn’t comfortable. Overall its value for money.

GGuest UserService was excellent. We arrived early and were able to check into our room right away. Rooms weren't overly fancy but all that was needed. Traffic noise was relatively significant so I recommend bringing ear plugs!
