Review by hotel critic
My stay at Shaden Resort was a mix of luxury and value, reflecting the contrasting landscapes of Saudi Arabia. The unique glamping setup blended seamlessly with the stunning rock formations surrounding the property, making it an attractive stay for those seeking a cultural experience. The staff, particularly Ms. Ghadeer, added a personal touch to the service, enhancing the overall stay.However, the property seemed underdeveloped, with ongoing construction and unfinished buildings detracting from the overall experience. The high price tag did not quite match the lack of entertainment and limited dining options, although the buffet offered a decent variety.In terms of amenities, the cozy rooms were well-appointed, and the proximity to historical sites was a definite plus. For those seeking a more refined experience, the resort fell slightly short in terms of overall value proposition.
