Featuring a seasonal outdoor swimming pool, shared lounge, garden and free WiFi, The Lofts Kuwait Fintas is set in Kuwait, 17 km from Kuwait International Fairground and 20 km from City Centre Salmiya. The accommodation offers a 24-hour front desk, a concierge service and currency exchange for guests. The property also offer free parking on site.

The staff (I worked with Mr. Zed, Mr. Thomas, and Ms. Manju) were very professional and friendly. Check-in and check-out was very fast and easy. My room was very quiet and clean, and the curtains blocked the sun well so we could sleep later into the morning. The location is good with shops, restaurants, and a mall nearby. Everything is above what I expected for the price I paid. Definitely recommend.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    The hotel is very well kept , safe and clean . Appears to be a newly built property . A/C Work wonderfully . Everyone from the front desk staff ( Rahul) and the restaurant staff ( Michelle and Alaa) were extremely attentive and kind . The breakfast buffet was excellent with plenty of choices . I travel around the world and this Hotel is where I would stay again when I travel back to Kuwait.

    Great location, amazing view from the rooftop. Very friendly and helpful staff. The mattress is nice and comfortable. The restaurant isn't cheap, but the food tastes good and the portions are big.

    So the hostel is the only one in Kuweit. It's perfect for short term stay. It is also very budget way to sleep there. The host is really helpful. Big adventage - two bedrooms for one room - it's very boutique hostel.

    The rooms are really huge and as spacious as advertised. It’s a great location and price is on the cheaper end for Kuwait. The staff were nice and hospitable. I also like the view they have from the roof. Overall it’s a good value.
