Where to stay: The region’s original convention centre hotel - the Gulf Hotel Bahrain - has been around for 40 years, while the adjoining Gulf International Convention and Exhibition Centre was added in 1997. The hotel offers 4,780 square metres of space for conferences and exhibitions, plus the Al Dana hall which can accommodate 2,500 for cocktails and 1,260 for a banquet.
Best Feature: The hotel is attached directly to the convention centre, which means guests have the freedom to walk to the halls in air-conditioned comfort.
Why choose it: Aside from its convenient location, the rooms have been recently renovated and there are 14 restaurants and bars to pick from.
