Best Hotels in Taif

Taif is the Hijaz's mountain resort at 1,700 m, famous for its roses, the Al-Hada and Al-Shafa terraces, and cable cars over the Sarawat mountains. Mild summers and proximity to Makkah (about an hour) make its hotels a favourite for families and pilgrims seeking a highland break.

Rose season in April and the summer festivals fill hotels fast — book early. Al-Hada properties offer the mountain views, while the town centre is closer to the souqs and Souk Okaz.
