Artal International Hotel (also referred to as Artal Al Alami Hotel) is located in Medina (Al-Madīnah), Saudi Arabia, on King Faisal Road, near the 1st Ring Road.  Its key appeal is its proximity to Al-Masjid an-Nabawi, making it a preferred choice for pilgrims seeking easy access to the mosque. 

Guests entering the hotel arrive at the main entrance lobby which leads into reception. From reception, there are lifts (elevators) that access the various guest floors. Rooms are typically modest to mid-level in amenities—comfortable beds, basic furniture, air conditioning, and standard fixtures. 

Because the hotel is somewhat older, some areas (especially bathrooms, corridors) show signs of wear; some guests mention aging plumbing, leaks, weak water pressure, or outdated fixtures.  Noise, cleanliness, and elevator delays are among recurring criticisms in guest reviews. 

On the positive side, the staff is often praised for being friendly, helpful, and responsive.  The hotel’s location near food outlets, shops, and the mosque is seen as a major advantage.
