The Venue Resident
Kuwait Hotel

The Venue Resident offers a modern, self-catering stay in Kuwait City’s coastal Mahboula district. Tucked into a residential neighborhood dotted with restaurants, markets, and salons, this adult-only aparthotel appeals to long-stay guests and travelers seeking more autonomy than a traditional hotel can offer.

The design is understated and functional. Each apartment features tiled floors, full kitchenettes, and a private bath—some with walk-in showers, others with tubs or bidets. The in-room laundry setups and ironing gear hint at the property’s focus on comfort over flash. Units come equipped with satellite flat-screen TVs, individual climate control, and complimentary Wi-Fi. Most spaces are open-plan, with a living area and sleeping quarters flowing into one another.

Public amenities include an indoor pool with a kids’ section, a modest fitness area, and a shared lounge with billiards. There’s a quiet, almost residential rhythm to the place—ideal for anyone who doesn’t need concierge theatrics to enjoy a stay. Housekeeping is available, but not intrusive. Parking is free but first-come, first-served. For those flying in, the hotel offers a paid airport shuttle service.

Dining is mostly a DIY affair, though nearby options include casual Kuwaiti grills, international chains, and walkable takeout spots. Al Kout Mall is just a short drive away, and Mahboula Beach is within strolling distance.

While not central to Kuwait’s business districts, The Venue Resident suits travelers who prize space, privacy, and convenience. It’s a solid pick for extended work assignments, remote workers, or anyone who wants a low-fuss home base in the city’s quieter southern edge.
