U Memon
January 3, 2026
Anjum is a fantastic hotel for umrah. First of all they upgraded to a masjid haram view room for free. Second, they let us check out just after zuhr out of kindness to let us pray before leaving (other option is they hold onto the luggage). Third, they have a free breakfast buffet for guests (there are 2, go to floor B1 for the better bigger one) which had great food - fresh waffles, pancakes, falafels, eggs omelette or boiled and a few rotating warm dishes like french toast, some mince meat arab dishes, scrambled eggs, daal. They had a really good variety of breads, and also houmous and other bits.
The location is great. Literally at the outside of the hotel is an escalator that goes down, and you walk out and in 5 minutes you are at the back side of the masjid. Make sure you use this escalator - dont go crossing the roads and roundabout and walk by the hilton, thats a long way around.
Only downside is that the hotel leads to the backside of the mosque - the umrah gates 74 are a further walk around and take more time, maybe like 15 minutes (but with sore feet and slower pace can be longer). For the price i think the location is still worth it and hotel is absolutely amazing in all ways. Staff also very friendly
If you will seriously struggle with mobility then the best is probably clocktower hotels that are literally in front of the umrah gates, not sure of their quality or else as they arent as new as anjum and nearby hotels, and anjum was cheaper and included an amazing breakfast and amenities. Would come again. I came from the UK..
