The Baron Hotel - Karbala

Food especially for people who likes Indian Pakistani style dishes is really good. Rooms are comfortable and room service is really good. Our stay at baron hotel was peaceful and comfortable. Shuttle bus service from hotel to haram and haram back to hotel was really helpful and on time. I would highly rate my stay at baron hotel

The best Hotel in Karbala At the onset, I would like to thank Mr. Tufeyl for organising our ziyarat trip with such perfection and in such a short time, looking after all our needs and making us feel very comfortable The rooms were spacious and comfortable with all amenities The meals were tasty with a good variety, special mention to chef Husain who was always ready to serve us, whatever we asked for? Sarfaraz was good at his services The shuttle service to the Haram was the plus point, it was very punctual and at frequent intervals Our stay at Baron hotel was a memorable one, and would love to return again for ziyarat

This is the best hotel in Karbala. Pros: Very clean, modern, and excellent customer care and hospitality. Breakfast is perfect. Rooms are super clean. Hot shower is the best. Far from the hustle and bustle of the city. Cons: The minibuses to the holy shrine are not very suitable for elderly people. The first step is very tall, and it is difficult for old people to get on the minibus I hope they resolve this problem.

A pleasant surprise staying at the Baron in Karbala. Clean, comfortable with excellent service. The rooms were spacious and very well appointed. There is a shuttle running to and from the shrines every thirty minutes with a five minute drive time to the ziarat. The breakfast was good with a wide array of options. The hotel arranged all our sightseeing tours to Baghdad, Babylon and the trip to Najaf. The staff, from the reception desk to the drivers that would take us around, everyone was super helpful and would go the extra mile to ensure we had a great trip. I would definitely recommend this hotel for anyone visiting Karbala.

I stayed in the Baron in December 2023, the room was spacious, very large and nicely decorated lobby, the service was exceptional, and everyone went above and beyond, the buffet had all varieties of food and was very good quality, highly recommend.

Starting Point: We, as a family of 4 (two adults and two minors, 8 yrs / 11 yrs) from NY, returned from Karbala (Ziarat on Dec 31, 2023). I am happy to share my experience without any delay. To get things in perspective, I am a frequent traveler to Karbala but without children. This was the first time I decided to take family during Christmas Break. I want my kids to have good first-time memories, which I was worried about in the first place due to the lack of Quality, Hygiene, and Standards I noticed in accommodations near Haram during my past stays. I am glad we contacted Tufel Akbar (Baron) via the website, who patiently listened to our needs and crafted the perfect Ziarat Package with Maulana, including a stay in Kazmain, Najaf, and a first-class experience at Karbala. Note we were offered the standard transportation part of the package, but we upgraded our transport by selecting a full-size GMC SUV with extra charges totally up to you. Experience: What an experience, especially when traveling with children from the US with totally different expectations. I was a little worried as I want to build good memories for the kids and want them to be happy and ready to return to Karbala without any hesitation in the future. We were offered an airport meet and greet before the immigration counter at the airport. Baron Rep handled visa formalities, which was an excellent first experience without worrying about filling out any paperwork for visa processing at crowded Iraq airports without any discipline. Hotel Checkin: Breeze with Jr Suite, as we want our kids to stay with us. Excellent bedding food choices for eight and 11-year-old, 24 hrs in the room Dining service, which you can not get throughout Karbala in any other accommodation. Note this is a full-service hotel that offers kids entertainment with a Gaming room and VR games, so you can focus on your Ziarat with kids at the hotel without worrying about security. I do not recommend leaving kids in the gaming room un supervise when you have minors. Final Note: Please do not consider this a note to encourage luxury when going for Ziarat. We also have a 5-star hotel In front of Kaba and Madina; too, it's all about building a lasting image for yours and your family to cherish in the future with the desire to meet imam every year. Thank you, Tufel Akbar, Waqar, and Baron Team.
