Extended stay hotel with apartment-style suites featuring kitchenettes. Perfect for longer visits with separate living areas, complimentary breakfast, and home-like comfort combined with hotel services.
Residence Inn by Marriott Kuwait City occupies a residential-style tower on Al Shuhada Street in central Kuwait City, designed as an extended-stay property that blends apartment-style independence with full hotel services. The brand, part of Marriott International's portfolio, targets professionals on multi-week corporate assignments, families relocating to Kuwait, and leisure travelers who prefer the space and self-catering flexibility of a serviced apartment over a standard hotel room.
Each suite features a fully equipped kitchenette with refrigerator, microwave, and cooking facilities alongside a separate living and sleeping area. Studio, one-bedroom, and two-bedroom configurations are available, accommodating solo travelers through to families of four or more. Furnishings are practical and durable, with full-size work desks, high-speed Wi-Fi, and access to laundry facilities within the building — essentials for long-stay residents.
A complimentary hot breakfast is served daily, an uncommon inclusion among Kuwait City hotels that represents genuine value for guests staying a week or longer. The hotel does not operate a full-service restaurant but light evening refreshments are available several nights per week as part of the brand's social hour concept. A grocery delivery arrangement allows guests to stock their in-suite kitchens without navigating unfamiliar markets, a particularly useful feature for new arrivals to Kuwait.
The outdoor swimming pool and fitness centre provide exercise options for active guests. Meeting and co-working space caters to business guests conducting work from the property. Complimentary parking is a meaningful benefit in Kuwait City, where parking in commercial zones can be congested and costly at nearby buildings.
Al Shuhada Street's central position puts the hotel within a short drive of Kuwait City's principal shopping centers, business districts, and government offices. Kuwait International Airport is approximately 20–25 minutes away by taxi. Marriott Bonvoy members earn points on stays redeemable across the global portfolio.
