IHG® (InterContinental Hotels Group), one of the world's leading hotel companies, has signed a Management Agreement with leading hospitality supplier, The Arabian Hospitality Company, to open Holiday Inn Madinah West in 2022. The new property will cater to the influx of religious tourists expected as part of Vision 2030 and reinforces IHG's commitment to expand its presence and diversify its portfolio across the Kingdom.

Once completed, the 700-key property will be IHG's fourth hotel in Madinah, joining InterContinental Dar Al Hijra, InterContinental Dar Al Iman, and Crowne Plaza Madinah. Conveniently located in one of the most frequented pilgrimage areas in Saudi Arabia, Holiday Inn Madinah West will be in close proximity to Prince Mohammed bin Abdul Aziz International Airport in Madinah, making it a great base for religious tourists.
