Juffair hotels - About Juffair Juffair is in Manama, Bahrain located in an area that used to be sea, but has been extensivley reclaimed since 1970. It is now home to many hotels and restaurants, flats and villas. In fact, Juffair is built on a massive land reclamation scheme which has extended Bahrain's coastline by two kilometers to the east.
The area is the site of frenetic building activity, with new apartment buildings and hotels constructed each year. Most of those who live in the area are established foreigners or upwardly mobile young Bahrainis. It is also the site of Bahrain's largest mosque, the huge domed Al Fateh Mosque, which houses the new National Library. All Bahrain road calculations are made from the Grand Mosque - Zero Point.
The name originally comes from the British naval installation known as HMS JUFFAIR, established on April 13, 1935 in the area where ASU-SWA is located today. In 1950, the United States Navy leased office space aboard HMS JUFFAIR from the British. In 1971, after their treaty expired, the British left Bahrain, granting the island total independence. The United States, through agreement with the Bahraini government, took over part of HMS JUFFAIR, renaming it Administrative Support Unit Bahrain, consequently Naval Support Activity Bahrain.
