A signing ceremony took place in Munich at the Kempinski Group offices, in the presence of senior officials from both organizations, including Yasser Abuateek, CEO of Umm Al Qura for Development & Construction and Barbara Muckermann, CEO, Kempinski Group, reflecting the increasing presence of major international brands destined for the Masar development.
The Kempinski Residences at Masar, Makkah, is regarded as an iconic address that offers spiritual connectivity, investment security, and long-term value appreciation. When complete, the development will provide an unparalleled blend of luxury, exclusivity, and world-class hospitality for discerning residents. Facilities will include premium five-star amenities such as private executive lounges, a Boulevard Café, a high-end wellness centre, and signature dining, as well as dedicated concierge and valet services, all delivered to Kempinski’s impeccable standards.
The branded residences will be further distinguished by the quality of the interiors, which will include hand-selected materials, bespoke finishes, and refined aesthetics, as well as a wide array of smart home features and modern conveniences. With 302 serviced residential units of varying sizes and flexible ownership options, the project represents a significant addition to the high-end residential offerings within the Masar destination. The residences will be part of a wider mixed-use development that will include a Kempinski hotel and a retail component, standing as the epitome of refined urban living in the sought-after district.
Kempinski Group was founded on the simple but enduring belief: that hospitality should enable guests to experience ‘The Good Life.’ Since its origin, Kempinski has defined luxury not as status or formality, but as generosity and joy, qualities that will add significantly to the experience of visitors and residents in the new destination, which will support spiritual connectivity and cultural appreciation.
The project further expands the presence of prestigious hotel brands within the Masar destination and makes a significant contribution to diversifying the accommodation and service options in the Holy City.
