Le Royal Meridien boasts 264 deluxe rooms and suites.

Royal treatment at the Meridien en Bahrain sees itself as a hotel for both business people and resort for leisure. This means it can certainly play a role in this drive to be a family destination - we are, currently, the only beach resort on the island and we have wonderful facilities for families with the beach, pools and many water sports and other activities," says Raffaele Solferino, acting general manager of the Le Royal Meridien Bahrain, when asked about the hotel's reaction to the government's push to promote 'family tourism'.

Solferino feels that the push towards 'family tourism' would not have much of an effect on the hotel considering "the hotel has quality entertainment".

On the success of the recently concluded Bahrain Summer festival he said that according to the hotel's figures and a comparison with the 2001 summer festival, the hotel did see a slight increase - of approximately 200 room nights - over the two months of July and August.

Solferino believes that improvements to the airport and airlines would help the Economic Development Board (EDB) to further promote the festival in the future.

Although Solferino feels that Bahrain would not be able to compete with Dubai when it came to beaches, he does feel that Bahrain offers a lot more in terms of culture, history and wildlife.
