"Saudi Arabia is a key focus country for our group. We already operate six hotels with over 1,200 rooms in the Kingdom and have further nine hotels with 1,700 rooms under development – we see a considerable potential for further projects in the country which shows positive economic growth", said Wolfgang M. Neumann, President & CEO at Rezidor.
The Park Inn by Radisson Riyadh has an excellent location on Al Ahsa Street, in the heart of Riyadh's established business district.

Riyadh's King Khaled International Airport, Saudi Arabia's largest air facility, lies to the north of the hotel site. .
The new Radisson Blu Hotel, Jeddah Al Salamah is located on Quraysh Road in the Al Salamah district just 9km from the city's expanding King Abdulaziz International Airport to the north. The Al Salamah area surrounding the hotel site comprises office space, a public ballroom and residential areas, all located between the Corniche and the main Madinah Road. The upper upscale hotel will include 142 rooms and serviced apartments, a 400m² all-day dining restaurant, a 250m² lobby cafe, more than 1,200m² of meeting and event facilities, as well as 370m² of wellness facilities with gym and an outdoor pool. Located on the coast of the Red Sea and with a population of 3.5 million, Jeddah features one of the world's largest seaport and the third largest industrial district in Saudi Arabia.
