Umrah Guide / Accessibility

Accessibility

Elderly and mobility-restricted travellers

For elderly travellers, the lowest price is not what matters most; the shortest and most accessible route to the Haram gate is. Shuttle service, lift and distance are checked separately.

Checks

  • Actual walking distance and gradient between the hotel and the Haram.
  • Lift, ramp and wheelchair access.
  • If shuttle service is available: stop, time and final walking distance.
  • Distance and luggage assistance at the HHR station.
  • Emergency and proximity to a hospital.

Frequently asked questions

Is a hotel close to the Haram always better?

Yes for accessibility; the price can rise up to 5-6 times. For budget reasons, moving to a nearby hotel for the last two nights may be an alternative.
