We stayed in Voco for a week during the ramadaan 2024 . Very nice experience. Very neat and very clean . The shopping mall was excellent for day to day necessities.and for qauility products . 7 km from haraam. The bus shuttle service was excellent as with no delays or issues. We from Cape Town South Africa. Shukran for a pleasant stay ..
Very nice but i still preferred those hotel which are walking distance from the al haram mosque... But i like or love most of ur videos specially the one you featured all restaurants around haram... 👍👍
What's the shuttle bus like? How long do you have to wait? And is the distant to makkah and drop off point close or far? I'm looking to book between voco or Novotel
Salaam, there are frequent buses so you will be waiting 10-15 mins only. The video below shows the full journey from the hotel to masjid Al haram so this is the exact route: czcams.com/video/W7mW0p4SHHk/video.htmlsi=hJWIH5iOk0TFUQm6
If you want a cheaper option, there is a bus which takes you to Makkah Bus Station which costs 25 SAR per person. You can get it directly from the terminal.
Thank you for watching. May Allah accept your Hajj insha’Allah and safe travels. Uber is cheaper than in the Uk. A 20 minute journey costs roughly £7. There’s a different app called Careem which is a bit cheaper than Uber and has more drivers. I’m going to be making a video on Saudi taxis so make sure you subscribe so you can see that 😀
@@speakup2888 not with Uber or Careem, as their prices are fixed. You can pay by via the app directly or with Careem you can choose to pay cash as an option. I don’t think it’s a good idea to bargain with cash if the price has already been decided by Careem. You can bargain with the street taxis(the green taxis), generally price is by meter but they often quote the price before driving you so you can always haggle them down if you prefer.
If from Jeddah, you could use a taxi service Careem. Sign up to the app and book when you land. Cost for a big car (around 6 people) will be approximately 220 SAR to get to your hotel in Makkah.

Do I need to bargain with the uber/careem drivers?

It depends on which package you choose when booking. I had breakfast included.
30 to 40 min walk not for me
No gym?
There is a gym, unfortunately it was closed during my stay as it was being renovated. It's probably open now though.
