Pullman Zamzam Madina
Pullman Zamzam Madina is a hotel in Medina, Saudi Arabia, situated a short walk from the Prophet's Mosque. The property rises as a tall tower within the cluster of large hotels that surround the mosque complex on its northern and western sides.
Medina has been central to Islam since the 7th century, when the Prophet Muhammad settled there and the mosque bearing his name was first built. The area around the mosque was heavily transformed in the late 20th and early 21st centuries to make room for large hotels and expanded pilgrimage facilities.
The hotel stands directly beside the Prophet's Mosque, one of the holiest sites in Islam, drawing worshippers from every part of the world. Stepping outside the front entrance places a visitor immediately among pilgrims moving toward the mosque for daily prayers.
Booking well in advance is strongly recommended, as the hotel fills up quickly during the Hajj season and Ramadan. The area around the Prophet's Mosque is heavily used at prayer times, so moving on foot between the hotel and the mosque can take longer than expected.
The name Zamzam refers to the sacred well located in Mecca, not in Medina where the hotel stands. Giving a Medina property a name tied to Mecca links the two holiest cities in Islam under a single roof, at least symbolically.
