Hayah Plaza Hotel

Hayah Plaza Hotel is a budget hotel on Saad Bin Ubadah Street (also called Abu Ayyub Al-Ansari Street) in the Bani Khidrah district of central Madinah, Saudi Arabia, about 350 m in a straight line from Masjid an-Nabawi. It is one of the cheapest options in the close walking ring, with guest scores around 8 out of 10, which makes it popular with visitors who want to be near the Prophet's Mosque without paying for brand-name services. Bani Khidrah lies on the south-eastern side of the mosque, near the direction of the Al-Baqi cemetery, and the surrounding streets are dense with hotels, shops, cafes and money changers. The Haramain high-speed rail station and Prince Mohammad bin Abdulaziz International Airport are several kilometres away and are reached by taxi, ride-hailing or arranged transfer. The building is a modest hotel in the central belt with a practical, pilgrim-oriented character rather than a resort atmosphere. Rooms are air-conditioned and served by lifts. Typical categories include double or twin rooms, family rooms and suites, with availability to be confirmed at booking. Breakfast is listed as an option to confirm at booking, so guests should check whether it is included in the rate and what time it starts, particularly for pre-dawn prayers. The surrounding streets hold many small restaurants, bakeries and cafes serving inexpensive Arabic, South Asian and Turkish food, which suits travellers on a tight budget. No spa, pool or fitness facilities are confirmed in the available listings. Service is practical, covering luggage, transport and prayer-time logistics, and the hotel suits families, groups and independent travellers who value proximity and price over extra amenities. October 2026 listings put rates at roughly SAR 155 to 415 per night, rising sharply in Ramadan, the Hajj season and school holidays. Hotel stays are open to all visitors with a valid visa, while the mosque precinct is restricted to Muslims.
