Novotel Bahrain Al Dana Resort

The hotel is quite old and in need of renovation the decor is outdated, and the furniture and amenities are showing their age. Some of the facilities could definitely use a refresh. The staff were polite and helpful, which made the stay more comfortable. However, for the price, you’d expect a more modern and well-maintained property. If you’re not too concerned about the condition of the building and just need the basics with decent service, it’s an okay option.

It was a great experience right from the security door to reception with helping staff like Lucy and Babona. The music which was coming from the next hotel beach was a little too loud to be relaxing enough. Rest all was great and comfortable.

We travelled as a family and we truly enjoyed the facility. The pool and the private beach is amazing. I would say that the room furniture could use an upgrade. The sofa, bed, and the room were not the greatest, the room is a little bit old and the furniture didn’t seem clean enough. However we enjoyed our time using the pool and we will definitely be coming back.

We had a great sty with the kids. Imane was really helpful and arranged an upgrade as it was the children’s birthdays this weekend. Catered to all our needs. The hotel is nice, if dated but staff in general were approachable and helpful. Have stayed here before as the pool and beach area are good especially for the kids. Breakfast has improved from the last time I stayed which is good.

Hotel was in a great location with good facilities. We selected the half board option and the food was great both at breakfast and dinner. A few suggestions of improvement would be that the lady who worked in the kids club was asleep at times whilst I was looking after my daughter in there. Also for the half board dinner option it would be nice to be offered something to drink other than water.

The property has very dated decor - needs a fresh coat of paint, proper switches for lighting, and a USB charging point (as most modern facilities). In addition it had a very dated TVset with poor picture quality. Toilet paper and soap ran out on the 2 nd day and took some time to get replaced - not really acceptable given the rates that were charged.

I am very upset about my stay with you

Unfortunately, I book and stay with you so that I can relax all my energy while I work, but unfortunately, at exactly 7 a.m., your maintenance work began on my room. Is this consistent with the name of the Novotel hotel in the world? I am very disturbed by your poor arrangement. If you have maintenance in a building, you do not have the right to provide it. Rooms near the maintenance area, which caused me inconvenience, and I will inform everyone of this misfortune that befell me.
