First stay in Bahrain, visiting family. Great location, food (mainly take outs) within walking distance. Rooms are fantastic! Very spacious, well equipped, clean. Everything that you could want in an appartment with kids. The facilities in the hotel are not as great as initially anticipated. The pool is extremely cold and unusable for our youngest son as he turned blue after the first swimming attempt. The sauna/steam room and jacuzzi are also not turned on/cold. The gym is fine though. Loads to do in the local area for children. We went to lost paradise water park which was excellent and all of the local malls have great places for children to play. more
