About the Establishment

A reliable opening year for the Plaza Inn Ohud Hotel could not be reliably found for this establishment. A separate year of establishment for the business could also not be reliably found. As such, both figures are recorded as not reliably available instead of approximating an opening / establishment year.

This practice is in place to avoid conflating hotel rebranding, management changes, booking platform openings, and other similar occurrences with a hotel’s actual establishment or opening year.

Great Central Location Within Walking Distance of the Prophet’s Mosque

Plaza Inn Ohud Hotel’s greatest strength is its central location within Madinah. The hotel is 250 metres from Al Masjid an Nabawi, making it reasonably close to the Prophet’s Mosque. A walk to both Al Masjid an Nabawi and other commercial districts is feasible.

Visiting Al Masjid an Nabawi several times per day, as many pilgrims do, will significantly cut down on the time needed for transportation between the hotel and the Mosque.

Convenient Proximity to Al Masjid an Nabawi

Plaza Inn Ohud Hotel is ideally located near the Western Central District and right outside of Al Salam Gate to the Prophet’s Mosque. This is an unexpectedly strong feature in Madinah, where most hotels are located at a significant distance from the Mosque.

As such, this hotel is a great choice for those looking to base themselves near Al Masjid an Nabawi and are considering spending more time at the Mosque.

It should also be noted that, during Ramadan and busy seasons, the pedestrian streets near Al Masjid an Nabawi have a tendency to get incredibly busy. It is advised to allocate extra time for walks to and from the Mosque even when the hotel is 250 metres away.

Rooms and Accommodation

Plaza Inn Ohud offers around 150 rooms and suites to accommodate individual guests, friends, family, and small groups of pilgrims. All rooms and suites feature air conditioning, television, wardrobe, mini bar, and private bathrooms.

Twin Rooms

Twin beds can be used by single guests, and two people can share a room. This is a great value option for groups of friends and family.

Triple Rooms

Triple rooms offer three single beds, which is perfect for small groups of friends and family.

Three people can share a single room without anyone having to give up their own beds.

Quadruple rooms offer four single beds, making them great for larger groups and families.

Four people can share a single room.

Suites

If more space is desired for a stay, suites are a great option. They are the best value option for larger groups and pilgrims staying for extended periods of time.

Suites can accommodate multiple guests and are available for those who want to spend more time inside the hotel room.

Air conditioning

AC is available in all of the hotel’s rooms, ensuring a cool temperature in all guest accommodations.

It can be especially hot in the summer, and it is a good idea to take a break inside the room or at the hotel after long walks to Al Masjid an Nabawi or other mosques.

Private Bathrooms With Showers

All rooms and suites feature private bathrooms with showers, which is another great convenience that reduces the need for additional infrastructure.

Hotels rarely feature such an option due to the complexities of such a design, but private bathrooms are incredibly convenient for guests.

Many important sights around Madinah can be visited by walking or taking a local taxi from the hotel, including Al Masjid an Nabawi, Al Baqi Cemetery, Quba Mosque, Qiblatain Mosque, Mount Uhud, the Hejaz Railway, and many other important sights.

Al Masjid an Nabawi

Most visitors to Madinah will centre their experiences around Al Masjid an Nabawi due to its religious significance. It is the most important mosque in Islam, and millions of Muslims visit it every year.

The Prophet’s Mosque, as it is sometimes referred to, is the main attraction in Madinah and the reason why most people visit the city. Staying at a hotel located only 250 metres from the Mosque is incredibly convenient for Umrah, ziyarah, and family guests.

The distance also makes it ideal for people who wish to pray at Al Masjid an Nabawi multiple times per day.

Al Baqi Cemetery

Al Baqi Cemetery is a historically significant burial ground located near Al Masjid an Nabawi.

Many famous Islamic scholars and personalities are buried within Al Baqi Cemetery. It is considered one of the most important mosques and religious sites in Madinah. It should also be noted that Al Baqi Cemetery is currently closed to the public.

It is another important religious site that should be visited by anyone spending time in Madinah. This mosque is also located near Mount Uhud, which is one of the most important landmarks in the region.

Mount Uhud

Mount Uhud is a local landmark in Madinah that is historically linked with the Prophet Muhammad and early Islam. The Qiblatain Mosque is located on this mountain, which makes it possible to visit both of these sights in one trip.

It should be noted that Mount Uhud is a few miles away from the hotel. Transportation to the mountain would need to be arranged in advance.

Hejaz Railway

The Hejaz Railway is yet another important historic railway system located in Madinah. It is possible to take a train along this rail route, which spans many miles and connects numerous local landmarks.

This is another great activity for those visiting Madinah and looking to get more acquainted with the region’s landmarks, sights, and attractions.

Shopping And Dining

It is always a good idea to eat well and maintain a healthy diet when visiting another country.

Airports

Prince Mohammad Bin Abdulaziz International Airport is approximately 15 minutes’ drive away from the hotel. This estimate does not include traffic jams, which can occur during peak seasons and severely impact local traffic.
