Wheelchair facilities in Kuwait are very limited. There are parking spaces for disabled people at the airport and big shopping centres, but these are invariably taken up by ignorant, able-bodied drivers who don’t like to walk too far. Facilities in Kuwait are improving, but slowly.

Hotels catering for disabled visitors include the Carlton Tower Hotel, Crowne Plaza Kuwait, Four Points by Sheraton, Hilton Kuwait Resort, JW Marriott, Kuwait Continental Hotel, Le Meridien Kuwait, Le Meridien Tower (Art + Tech), Marina Hotel, Mövenpick, Radisson SAS, Safir International Hotel and Sheraton Kuwait Hotel & Towers.

Kuwait International Airport provides a wheelchair service to passengers, and has lifts. Passengers requiring special assistance should inform their airline prior to arrival.
