10 Best Makkah Hotels with Free Shuttle to Haram (2026 Reviews)

Published: December 12, 2025

Staying at the Clock Tower (Fairmont/Swissotel) is a dream, but it costs SAR 1000+ per night. The smart money is on Aziziyah or Kudai hotels—luxury 5-star hotels for SAR 300, provided they have a good shuttle.

We reviewed the top hotels that offer 24/7 distinct shuttle services to the Haram in 2026.

⚠️ The Shuttle Trap

Hotels say "Free Shuttle", but they don't tell you:

1. Prayer Times: Shuttles stop running 30 mins before and after prayer due to road closures. You must walk or wait.
2. Crowds: After Isha, fighting to get on the bus is chaos.
3. Drop-off: Some shuttles drop you 1km away.

The Solution: Book these cheaper hotels to save money, but rent a private car for Ziyarat or heavy luggage movements. Relying on the shuttle for airport transfers is a mistake (they don't do it).
