Friendly staff - all of them, security, front of house, housekeeping. Large comfortable rooms with balconies. Leisure facilities available, I haven’t used yet but they are there. Location, Ankawa is the Christian sector of Erbil which is important for me.

Maybe the breakfast isn’t Westernised enough for me but that’s my personal taste.

We stayed as a group for 3 nights and had a perfect stay. The rooms are large and comfortable and clean. The breakfast is good and has a wide range of continental and Arab food. There are two bars and they serve alcoholic drinks. The Spa is perfectly for a rest. Big thanks to friendly Oday and Alaa for their support for our group. We felt very much welcome. See you again.

I was in Kurdistan for a total knee replacement and the hotel was ideally situated for the Hospital. That said if you were to be visiting here on a leisure break then you wine hard pushed to find a more suitable hotel Ideally situated in the Christian district and close to local bars restaurants etc.

The only criticism is that the decor could probably do with a bit of a liven up

The room was super clean, the breakfast buffet had many options, we had a chance to dine at the hotel’s restaurant and the food was delicious. My daughter forgot he gold necklace in the room and while we were waiting for the taxi to take us to the airport, the room service person came to us and gave us the necklace back.

The pool was closed for maintenance.

We were lucky to find Ankawa Hotel on booking.com back in 2018. Ever since, it became our go-to hotel because of the spacious well-equipped rooms, delicious assorted breakfast, strategic location and reasonable price.

So far, so good.

Same high quality of service over and over. as this is the 4th time that I am staying at Ankawa Royal hotel. I have a business to North region of Iraq. I had to stay in Erbil for one night only then next day to travel to Sulymania and of course I will stay in my favorite hotel ever Ankawa royal. It is my home away from home. The lovely welcoming from the reception team. The perfect selection of food at the breakfast buffet, the comfort bed and the most important is the location all the previous make you come again and again. I will be back defiantly the coming week to finish my business trip and I will stay again in my second home. Thank you all and keep up the good job.
