Jeddah, 4 November 2014 - The 2014 Hajj season was expected to achieve positive results across the Holy Cities of Makkah and Madina. The latest statistics from the Saudi Arabia’s hospitality industry reveal a successful season across all hotels where a record number of pilgrims were hosted by key industry players in both cities. During this year’s Hajj season, Anjum Hotel not only welcomed over 50,000 pilgrims from 23 different nationalities, but also provided them with the highest level of service, thus exceeding their expectations. By extending its working hours, the hotel management successfully and efficiently catered to a significantly large volume of guests, ensuring their comfort and satisfaction during their stay. Anjum’s staff ensured quick and smooth delivery of hotel’s five star services even at peak times, reflecting hotel’s commitment to make their guests’ stay pleasant and enjoyable. Elaborating on the transportation services, Ahmad Sabry, General Manager of Anjum Hotel, said: “Anjum Hotel enjoys a prime location within the complex of the Holy Mosque. Since a number of roads were closed around the hotel, we revised the bus schedules and altered travel routes as well as informed tour operators accordingly in order to avoid any delays for the guests. Our hotel offers a vast parking space and can easily accommodate almost 40 buses at the same time within its premises which assured of a swift and easy arrival and departure of pilgrims.” “We planned months ahead to ensure a comfortable Hajj season for our guests. All departments were well equipped and prepared with all necessary supplies at all times and in compliance with safety and hygiene requirements.” Sabry added. “To cope with the additional demand and ensure a calm and peaceful Hajj experience for our guests, we liaised with the local authorities regarding adequate water and electricity supply and get some heads-up notification beforehand in case of any planned supply interruptions.” “With the help of the Red Crescent, we had set up a centre for their operation within our hotel to respond to any medical emergencies 24 hours a day. We also increased the availability of medical care to be at par with the number of guests, with a doctor-on-call round-the-clock and direct contact with nearby hospitals and medical centres,” Sabry concluded. The Anjum Hotel Makkah is an ideal location for Hajj pilgrims, as it provides guests with breath taking views of the Holy Haram and an air-conditioned private direct access through the new King Abdullah gate to the Ancient House. The hotel boasts of a beautifully landscaped piazza, extending a warm welcome to guests along with express check-in and check-out services. The piazza and reception desk has an easy access to all guest rooms through 26 direct elevators designed to attend to guests during peak times. The hotel property offers a total of 3,000 square meters of public areas, including lounges and restaurants, situated either in the lobby or mezzanine floors. The four restaurants and lounges, serving a wide variety of international and authentic cuisine prepared by a team of multinational chefs, can cater to 3,500 guests. Joud, all-day dining restaurant alone has a capacity of 1500 pax even during busy Hajj season. Posted on www.godubai.com
