Hotels in Medina, Saudi Arabia

Medina is home to the SAPTCO—the Saudi Arabian Public Transportation Company—which offers bus services. However, as the system is limited and presents few centralized options for visitors, you may prefer hailing a taxi or ride-share services to help you get around. There are several hotels in Medina in neighborhoods like Bada’ah and Bani Khidrah that are centrally located and provide easier access to transportation. We suggest the Rua Al Madinah Hotel where you can easily grab a cab. The King Faisal Rd/Abdul Mushin Ibn Abdul Aziz bus stop is also just a few blocks away.

If you are traveling to Media to visit cultural sites, we recommend staying in neighborhoods that are central to the activity, such as Bada’ah or Bani Khidrah. In Bada’ah you may want to stay at the Intercontinental Madinah - Dar Al Iman, which is close to the bus stop on King Fahd Rd. Alternatively, in Bani Khidrah, you may opt for a room at the Madinah Movenpick Hotel near the King Faisal Rd/Abdul Mushin Ibn Abdul Aziz bus stop. If you and your partner have come to the area intrigued by pre-Islamic Arabian rock art, we recommend that you find cheap hotels in Medina, like the Le Méridien Medina in the Al Jamiah neighborhood.

You’ll need to grab a private or shared taxi and should plan the excursion as a day trip.
