Directions

Getting to the Velvet Hotel from the King Abdulaziz International Airport (JED) is best done by car; the route is direct and usually takes 20-30 min, subject to traffic. Taxis are easy to find at the official stands in the airport. In Jeddah, one much recommended modern mode frequently cheaper than traditional taxi fares is to book a car through an app like Uber or Careem. These apps are much in vogue throughout Jeddah and offer a dependable, fixed-rate ride right to the hotel.

For people coming by their own car or a hired one the hotel is highly accessible. Situated on King Fahd Branch Road, which runs north to south along the city, it has got great connectivity with the rest of the road network in the city. What adds to the convenience of staying at Velvet Hotel is that they offer free private parking which includes both outdoor surface parking, and an indoor parking lot along with valet services – this is a really big plus point in such a crowded city like Jeddah.

Jet-on public transportation in Jeddah is not much developed for tourists; there is no direct bus or train from the airport to the hotel and vice versa making the property inaccessible. Hence, any form of a vehicle – taxi, ride-hailing service, or rental – will be the only practical means of reaching the property. For enormous charges, the hotel can as well organize an airport shuttle if travelers inform them on time.
