AEROTEL JEDDAH is located within the transit (airport restricted) area at King Abdulaziz International Airport Terminal 1. To get to the hotel, after security check point at Transit, take the escalator up to level 2 of International Departures. The Aerotel is next to the Duty Free.

Arrival and transit passengers: Please do not clear arrival immigration, as you would not be able to re-enter the restricted area without a valid onward boarding pass. Upon arrival into Jeddah, if you do not have an onward boarding pass or if your bags are tagged to Jeddah, please approach the airline transit counters or the hotel front desk for assistance.
