About The Biltmore Al Madinah

Millennium Hotels and Resorts runs this 330-room property on Abizar Road, which booking sites place in the North Al Markaziya district. Millennium announced the Biltmore debut in Saudi Arabia on 9 March 2026, after The Oberoi, Madina ceased operations on 1 January 2026. Booking sites now connect that earlier name with this hotel. The hotel's website and Booking.com give four places to eat: Al Ansar Restaurant, the Indian Moghul Room, the Japanese Kyoto and The Tea House. Some room types, up to two-bedroom suites, are sold with a view of the Haram. The hotel's website names fitness facilities. Listings also show free Wi-Fi, a 24-hour front desk, a concierge, 24-hour room service, laundry, shops, an ATM and currency exchange. Booking.com guests score it 9.0 out of 10 from 217 reviews, some of which may date from the Oberoi years. Booking.com gives its Arabic name as بيلتمور المدينة.

Check before you book

  • Check the name on your confirmation. Searches for The Oberoi, Madina can lead to this hotel, because some booking sites still use the older name. Neither hotel company says directly that the two are the same property.
  • Confirm your check-out time with the hotel. Booking.com and HotelsCombined say 12:00, while HalalBooking says before 14:00.
  • Ask the hotel about the spa if it matters to you. Booking.com and Rumbo list one, but the hotel's website names only fitness facilities, and HalalBooking shows no separate spa for ladies.
  • Ask the hotel if you need a swimming pool, a prayer room or a shuttle to the Haram, because none of these is confirmed. Some listing details and reviews may date from the Oberoi years, so check any facility you rely on.
