Voco Makkah

Voco is our luxury tier: five stars, a restaurant, room service and family rooms. It sits 1,500 metres from the Haram - about twenty minutes on foot - but runs a free shuttle, and that changes the calculation entirely. The distance becomes a ride, which matters most in the summer heat and for anyone who would struggle with the walk five times a day. If you want the higher standard without paying the premium the closest hotels command, this is the trade.
