Distances are approximate walking routes

Measured from the hotel entrance to the nearest gate, not to the mataf, and rounded honestly. In Ramadan the practical walk is longer than any map suggests, because the approaches are managed and the crowds are dense — which is exactly when the difference between 120 m and 1.4 km stops being a detail. Hotel allocation is confirmed with every booking.
