Most of Jeddah's midrange hotels are in Al-Balad. Jeddah's budget hotels rarely accept
bookings from Westerners.

;
North Corniche; s/d SR520/650, bungalow SR950; )
Situated
halfway between the airport and downtown, the Bilad is much loved for its 'escape the
crowds' feel and cosy atmosphere. Facilities include a bakery, a lovely covered verandah
(with air-con in summer) and landscaped gardens with sea glimpses and birdsong.
Red Sea Palace Hotel$$
HOTEL
( 642 8555;

;
King Abdul Aziz St; d/ste SR600/1100; )
Large, comfortable
rooms, albeit with slightly tired decor, at reasonable prices makes this a viable alternative
to the luxurious options elsewhere in town. The hotel has two restaurants.
