Fairmont Makkah Clock Royal Tower is the hotel inside the famous Makkah Clock Tower, the tallest building of the Abraj Al Bait complex directly south of the Masjid al-Haram. Its position makes it a favourite for pilgrims who want to reach the Haram in minutes and pray in the rooms with a view of the Kaaba.

Kaaba-view rooms and suites are the hotel's best-known categories, and they are the first to sell out in Ramadan. Lower categories face the city but share the same short walk to the King Abdulaziz Gate and the same mall, food court and services downstairs.

Frequently asked questions

Is the Fairmont Makkah inside the Clock Tower?

Yes. Fairmont Makkah Clock Royal Tower occupies the Clock Tower itself, part of the Abraj Al Bait complex facing the Masjid al-Haram.

When should I book a Kaaba view room at the Fairmont?

As early as possible — for Ramadan, several months ahead. Outside Ramadan and school holidays, Kaaba view rooms are easier to find and cost much less.

When is Umrah not possible?

Saudi Arabia pauses Umrah for international pilgrims during the Hajj season — roughly from 1 Shawwal until 15 Dhul Hijjah on the Islamic calendar. Our forms only offer dates outside this pause, for the current month and the next three months; we confirm final dates with you.
