Family-friendly Hotels in Block 257

Gosh it’s been over a fortnight since we returned from our fantastic stay at The Art Hotel. Unfortunately we’ve been so busy on our return we are only now finding time to write a review… but what a positive and upbeat review we can write! We stayed with you from 3rd - 13th September 2024 on a fully inclusive ( including drinks/alcoholic and otherwise) package - and everything about our holiday was superb. The hotel and its facilities are modern, clean and very impressive. Our Grand Room with sea view was large, well furnished and well equipped. The restaurants available to us (as well as the excellent In Room Dining service) were first class. Even so called ‘snacks’ (available at the Bar, Pool-side and Beach etc,) were a veritable meal in themselves! The service provided by ALL the staff team (Front Desk, Room, Room Service, Beach, Pool, Restaurant etc) was excellent - they all simply couldn’t do enough to help guests - so in that sense it seems a little unfair to single out any individual. We would like however to give a big SHOUT for Grace (Front Desk Assistant Manager). We were so grateful for her help, advice and close attention to our needs - she really went the extra mile to help us. Constructive suggestions..??..not too many at all…but we did wonder whether you were ‘missing a trick’ in that the two ‘All Inclusive’ restaurants available to us (Rosso and Wu) - although serving excellent fayre - might benefit from offering a DIFFERENT lunchtime menu to the one they offered each evening? Overall, however, we are happy to record a thoroughly 5* endorsement on Trip Advisor - with many thanks to all at The Art Hotel for such a memorable and enjoyable stay! N.B. We really did wonder whether some recent negative reviewers had made a mistake & posted about the wrong ART hotel?…. Even some of the FACTUAL content in their description’s are incorrect …. & their evaluations so wide of the mark we really can’t believe they are describing the Art Hotel in Anwaj island in Manama Bahrain!

Really enjoyed the stay. Was suitable for children and families. Was quiet during the week we went and calm which we liked. Nice pool and nice small beach. The resturant edam was good. Jenny was so helpful and kind and catered to all our needs. Nothing was too much for her. Also John was very friendly and happy guy serving shisha. The man at the reception was very welcoming. All staff were respectful and kind. The room was very large, 2 bedrooms and very big lounge open space. Very clean and tidy. Comfy and clean bed and sheets. Really good stay in room 9811

The price is very high, the room is better than expected, clean, and the facilities do not lose five stars. The service is great, the hotel is just a few minutes walk from a business centre and some places to eat. very convenient.
