2D1N Travel And Staycation Experience At Grand Barakah Hotel Ampang

Dear Readers, 

 

Grand Barakah Hotel Ampang Offers An Affordable, Convenient And Muslim-Friendly Staycation 

My 2D1N Staycation Experience At Grand Barakah Hotel

 

Last weekend, I had the opportunity to stay and experience the hospitality provided by a rebranded hotel located in the bustling city of Ampang. The hotel that I stayed for 2 Days 1 Night over the weekend is the Grand Barakah Hotel Ampang where this hotel is formerly known as De Palma Hotel Ampang. 

The current Grand Barakah Hotel management team has took over the management and mandate to run this hotel since October 2021, and in short period of time, this hotel has successfully introduced a brand new image of a Muslim-friendly hotel into the community in this district.

With the majority population in Ampang district coming from the Malay community, Grand Barakah Hotel is of course the first choice of many, not only from the local but also a famous hotel for guests from the neighboring states. 

 

Grand Barakah Hotel is strategically located just a stone's throw away from the busy business centre like Ampang Point Shopping Centre on Jalan Selaman off Jalan Ampang and other important amenities like Ampang Puteri Specialist Hospital.

Dining Experience At Grand Barakah Hotel Ampang

Dining is no longer an issue when you stay here at Grand Barakah Hotel as there are in-house cafe houses available, not one, not two but three at the moment that are ready to serve the hotel's guests. 

Before check-in, I had a wonderful hi-tea session at Warisan Bonda. With the theme of "Hari Hari, Hari Raya", Warisan Bonda will be serving a variety of Eid dishes such as ketupat palas, nasi impit, lemang, burasak, lepat lui, rendang and many more dishes to recreate the nostalgic memory, especially when we had missed two years memorable Raya celebration at hometown. 

This hi-tea session will be made available daily from 10.00 A.M. to 6.00 P.M. and followed by Nasi Lemak Buffet starting from 6.00 P.M. to 11.00 P.M. The "Hari Hari, Hari Raya" Hi-Tea and Nasi Lemak Buffet is priced at RM 30 per person only which is very affordable too.

However, if you are craving for some international cuisine during your stay, no worries at all as you can just proceed to Level 3 where you can have the Turkish and Arabic Cuisine at Al Azzraf. 

Al Azzraf serves a wide variety of food from various countries in the Middle East like Mandi Lamb Shank Rice, Kabsa, Biryani, Maqluba and many more. They operate daily from 11.00 A.M. to 12.00 midnight. 

 

I personally loved the dining environment here in Al Azzraf as the interior of this restaurant really resembles and provides the vibes as if we are actually dining somewhere in the Middle East countries.

Other Facilities Available At Grand Barakah Hotel Ampang

 

Besides the comfortable room and in-house coffee houses, another unique facility available in the hotel premise is the Surau Nurul Hikmah. Based on my personal staycation experience, this is the first and only hotel in Malaysia that has a surau with in-house Imam to offer Friday prayers. The surau is led by three in-house Imam; Ustaz Mohd Haziq, Ustaz Sabaruddin and Ustaz Mohd Reduwan. 

 

It is so convenient as well that you can fulfill the five obligatory prayers every day while traveling at the surau together with the guests.
