A Modern Hotel in Al Aziziyah

The hotel was located in the Al Aziziyah area, providing a different accommodation experience to those who would stay in a hotel directly surrounding the Holy Mosque.

The Al Aziziyah location also enabled those seeking a modern and more comprehensive hotel experience to remain within easy distance of the mosque, Mina and other major Makkah destinations.

381 Rooms and Suites

The hotel was developed with a capacity of 381 rooms and suites.

The establishment accommodated individual guests, couples, families and groups of pilgrims as well as those arriving at Makkah for business purposes.

Superior King Rooms

Superior king rooms provided a comfortable arrangement for single guests or couples.

The rooms offered modern furnishings, air conditioning, private bathrooms and other essentials for a comfortable stay following a day of performing religious duties or business meetings.

Superior Triple Rooms

Superior triple accommodation included three single beds and was particularly suited to friends, family and others travelling together.

The additional sleeping capacity was useful for groups of friends or family members visiting Makkah.

Superior Quadruple Rooms

Superior quadruple rooms offered greater sleeping capacity for those travelling together, including family groups.

Families and friends could enjoy a combined room while visiting Makkah.

Family Accommodation

Family accommodation could be requested for those travelling with children.

The hotel also provided children’s facilities making the establishment more suited to families compared to a business oriented hotel.

Families should enquire regarding room allocation and family plan before requesting family accommodation at the hotel.

Modern Guest Facilities

Air conditioning, private bathrooms, television, safe storage and tea and coffee making facilities were provided in all guestrooms.

Selected rooms offered city views and extra space while family accommodation could provide a more spacious room for families.

Free Wi Fi

Free Wi Fi was provided to all guests for their convenience.

Internet access was essential for many guests to communicate with family members, arrange transport and other services, and to manage other aspects of their Makkah visit.

Restaurant and Breakfast

The hotel provided a full restaurant service for the convenience of those staying at the hotel.

The breakfast service was available to all guests, with buffets provided based on the most recent arrangements at the time of arrival.

Guests should confirm breakfast options upon arrival or at the time of booking in order to avoid disappointment.

Business Facilities

A business centre was provided for the convenience of guests.

The business centre made the hotel more appealing to both business travellers and to Umrah and Hajj pilgrims.

Fitness Facilities

Fitness centre facilities were provided for the convenience of those guests wishing to maintain their workout regime while in Makkah.

The fitness centre was an additional facility for those spending multiple days at the hotel.

Children’s Facilities

Child friendly facilities were provided at the hotel.

The children’s facilities presented an additional option for families, particularly with young children, to enjoy their stay in Makkah.

Free Private Parking

Free private parking was provided for the convenience of all guests.

The parking service benefited many Saudi residents and visitors, particularly those wishing to avoid the congestion of central Makkah.

Twenty Four Hour Reception

The hotel provided a twenty four hour front desk and concierge service for the convenience of all guests.

The round the clock reception was particularly useful for those guests arriving late at the hotel or departing early in the morning.

The twenty four hour service also catered to the specific needs of Umrah and Hajj pilgrims, particularly with regard to prayer times.

Access to Masjid Al Haram

The hotel was located approximately 7 to 8 kilometres from Masjid Al Haram, depending on the route.

Unlike many other hotels, those staying at Wirgan Hotel Al Azizyah found that they had to rely on taxis and other transport links to the central Haram district.

The distance to the Masjid Al Haram also meant that the hotel was more suited to those who wished to avoid the congestion of the central Mosque district.

A Practical Choice for Umrah

Wirgan Hotel Al Azizyah was developed to provide comfort to Umrah and business visitors.

As highlighted, the hotel provided a good balance of modern accommodation and amenities for those wishing to avoid the congestion of the central Haram district.

Guests should also bear in mind that extra time should be allocated to travelling to the central Mosque district during the month of Ramadan and during other busy periods.

Suitable for Hajj Visitors

The Al Aziziyah district provided good road access to the Mina district and other Hajj destinations.

However, all Hajj visitors should note that specific transport, entry and other requirements applied to Hajj and Umrah visitors and should always check with local authorities regarding their specific circumstances.

Suitable for Families

Families should consider the family accommodation, children’s facilities as well as the free Wi Fi, restaurant and parking services for their visit to Makkah.

Those travelling with family members or with children should also consider the triple and quadruple room options available at the hotel.

Suitable for Couples

Couples could consider the superior king room for their stay at the hotel, if available.

The modern rooms, restaurant and other facilities provided a suitable option for those travelling to Makkah as a couple.

Suitable for Business Travellers

The business centre, modern furnishings and the more accessible location compared to the central Haram district made the hotel a good choice for business visitors to Makkah.

Like Hajj and Umrah visitors, many business travellers also found that they had to contend with longer travel times in order to reach the central district during busy times of the year.

Exploring Makkah

Masjid Al Haram, the Kaaba, Abraj Al Bait, Mina, Jabal Al Nour and the Cave of Hira were among the many local attractions which could be visited by those staying at the hotel.

Mina

As one of the most important locations associated with the Hajj, Mina was well known among Umrah and Hajj visitors.

The Al Aziziyah district provided good road access to Mina although additional time should always be allocated to transport during the Hajj season.

Jabal Al Nour

Jabal Al Nour and the Cave of Hira were among Makkah’s most famous sights.

Those wishing to visit Jabal Al Nour should consider the walking and hiking opportunities on the mountain range, as well as the hot climate.

Abraj Al Bait

The Abraj Al Bait development, located close to the Haram, provided a wide range of shops, dining options and other services to residents and visitors.

Local guests could consider spending time in the development to combine their visit to the local Mosque district with an opportunity to enjoy some retail therapy.

Local Restaurants and Services

Restaurants, supermarkets, cafes, shops and other everyday services were available in the local Al Aziziyah district.

As such, day to day errands and meals did not always have to be undertaken in the central Haram district.

Difference and Other Characteristics

The former Wirgan Hotel Al Azizyah could be differentiated from other similar Makkah properties due to its 381 room capacity, modern four star hotel, family facilities, business centre, fitness centre, free Wi Fi and private parking.

The property’s main difference was its current rebranding as DoubleTree by Hilton Makkah Aziziyah, following its January 2026 rebranding. As such the former Wirgan Hotel Al Azizyah moniker mainly served historical purposes and those still searching under the old name should consider the new DoubleTree by Hilton Makkah Aziziyah property.

Ideal For

Umrah, family, couples, individual, Hajj, business, groups

Important Notes

Guests considering a stay at the former Wirgan Hotel Al Azizyah should also note that the hotel, as of January 2026, is now branded as the DoubleTree by Hilton Makkah Aziziyah. Additionally, guests should enquire regarding specific room category, breakfast service, parking, transport, and other additional requirements prior to arrival at the hotel.

During Ramadan and the Hajj season, extra travel time should always be budgeted when visiting Makkah due to restricted traffic and other local restrictions.
