Best Western Plus The Olive

The area and hotel is not ok for women to travel alone …I chose it for affordable price and nice pictures+ spa on site just to stay one day to visit the visa center in Bahrain , came with hijab and abaya , however I was mistakenly considered as night worker which was extremely disrespectful and disappointing , moreover at the lobby they were trying to keep my passport to pass it to some “agent” which is completely illegal and leads to idea that Hotel is involved in some dark businesses …. The hotel also has club inside that makes it more shady and at night you can feel vibration from the music , In addition the spa center they have inside also doesn’t look like a regular massage center , “ Therapists” mostly provide some other services than massage . Definitely not recommend for women or for families . The whole area was super shady and unpleasant.

The hotel is located in the prime Juffair area, surrounded by beaches, shopping malls, music clubs, etc. The hotel amenities are one of the best available in the area. Also, a shoutout to the hotel manager, Mr. Aman, who manages the hotel staff and all on-going activities pretty brilliantly.

Without a doubt, one of the worst hotels I've ever had the misfortune to stay in. During my stay the kitchen was closed down, I heard that half the cooks had covid. The IT man who came to my room to witness the dire internet was apparently taken away the next day by the authorities, with covid. Thankfully my agent moved about 50 of us out en mass to a much better hotel. A truly horrible place. The buck must surely stop with the duty manager. He needs a good shafting, and then firing.
