Four-star hotel on Shuwaikh Bay in the Free Trade Zone, about 10 minutes from the airport, with an outdoor pool, garden and playground; it operated as Mövenpick Hotel Kuwait before its rebranding.
Montrose Hotel Kuwait, formerly operated as Mövenpick Hotel Kuwait, is a four-star hotel on Ghazali Street in the Kuwait Free Trade Zone, Shuwaikh, Kuwait City, Kuwait. It faces Shuwaikh Bay and is about 10 minutes from Kuwait International Airport, which makes it one of the most practical choices for early or late flights and for business around the port and free trade zone. Shuwaikh is an industrial and commercial district rather than a tourist area, so the surroundings are working docks and warehouses, and the older downtown sights such as Souq Al-Mubarakiya and Kuwait Towers are a 15 to 25 minute drive away. The building is a low-rise waterfront property with a calm, resort-influenced layout that includes a garden. Rooms are offered as classic twin rooms, deluxe king rooms, superior king rooms and deluxe twin rooms, giving choice between double and twin bedding for colleagues travelling together. Dining includes a restaurant, a lobby lounge and room service, and halal meals are served. Facilities include an outdoor swimming pool, a garden, a free playground for children, a conference room and business centre, free parking and a 24-hour front desk. Airport pick-up is available for a surcharge. The service character mixes business and family use: the playground and pool help with children, while the conference room and parking suit corporate travellers who have a car. Rates start from about KWD 61 (roughly $199) per night and vary with season, weekday and event dates. Guests rate the hotel 8.4 out of 10 on Trip.com from 29 reviews. Visitors without a car should plan on taxis or ride-hailing apps for sightseeing, but the airport proximity, free parking and green space are the main draws.
