The only really uncomfortable issue with the hotel is that it is pretty old/dated the carpet smells and the air conditioning is good enough except that there is so much humidity that the bedding always feels damp - get a dehumidifier installed and it won't be so smelly or damp.

I enjoyed my stay, the room was great.
Travelling for work, I though the room and room faclilities were excellent. The pool was lovely and I had it all to myself.
The breakfast was ok. It took a long time to get a tea or coffee, spoons had run out and staff seemed generally overwhelmed.
Some parts of the hotel seemed run down. Some of the reception staff were good but some were rude. Some of the bar and breakfast staff were good and some didn't seem to know what they were doing.
There were a lot of poeple begging in the hotel lobby. It would be better for the hotel to donate to community projects and not allow beggars in the hotel.

I stayed there with my toddler. The staff is very friendly and helpful, taxi service outside the hotel at my convenience was great. The property is huge, but there is so much room for potential, for eg. The kiddies' pool, needs to be reconstructed, (it wasn't clean, and tiles are lifting around it) my son loves the water (ocean/pool) and he didn't want to get into the pool. Didn't ask to go to the pool for the duration of our stay.
There is a supermarket within walking distance from the hotel, perfect for grabbing snacks/water etc.
The club (kids play area), needs to be demolished and reconstructed (not safe at all). Our room was nice, we got the newly renovated rooms. The food- not many options ( we had breakfast daily, and dinner twice)
Overall: such a huge property, there is so much that can be done to uplift certain areas.

The King Fahd Palace offers a visually appealing beachfront location, but practical beach access is limited due to pollution and rocky terrain. The ocean view and sunbathing opportunities are the primary benefits of this location. The hotel boasts a wide range of on-site activities, but be aware that the property is not fully renovated and shows its age.
While the service staff is generally friendly, the front desk experience may be less consistent. Rooms are clean, but a noticeable dampness can be present. This is not an all-inclusive resort, and pool towels are available for a fee, which some guests find excessive for the overall value.
In essence:
Location with Caveats: The ocean view is a plus, but the beach is not suitable for swimming or typical beach activities.
Amenities vs. Reality: While the hotel lists many amenities, the actual experience may be impacted by the property's age and maintenance.
Service Inconsistencies: Expect varying levels of service, particularly at the front desk.
Value Considerations: The added costs, such as pool towel fees, may not align with the perceived value of the stay.
Therefore, potential guests should carefully weigh the importance of the ocean view against the limitations of the beach and the overall condition of the property. Those seeking a modern, luxurious beach resort experience may be disappointed.

It was a decent hotel but I was expecting a bit more for the amount we paid. There was only a refrigerator and a coffee maker I was also hoping for our room to have a microwave especially since we booked the double executive room. I somewhat expected it since I feel like it’s common for travelers to stay for weeks to months. Staff was very friendly however we did have a miscommunication. We called and asked for fruit and ice but we were brought fruit and three bowls of ice cream. After explaining that it was not what we ordered, they later brought up the ice but we still ended up paying for the ice cream even though we did not end up eating it. Most likely will not be back.
