Swissôtel Al Maqam Makkah stands in the Abraj Al Bait complex beside the Clock Tower, opposite the Masjid al-Haram. Its name comes from the Maqam Ibrahim, and some of its rooms look out over the Haram and the Kaaba.
Pilgrims choose it for the short walk to the King Abdulaziz Gate, the large rooms and the easy access to the mall and food court below. It is a good alternative when the Fairmont or Pullman ZamZam are full.
