Radisson Hotel Group (RHG) is continuing its expansion plan with the opening of its 28th hotel in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA).
The new property, Radisson Hotel & Residence Riyadh Olaya, is located in the northern Al Yasmin suburb. It is the group’s ninth hotel in the city of Riyadh.
Featuring 201 guest rooms and apartments, the hotel is equipped with a full-service restaurant, a lobby lounge, and extensive meeting and event facilities that span 500m².
Radisson Hotel & Residence Riyadh Olaya also offers indoor fitness centres, a pool, a spa, and a kids club for leisure activities.
The RBG Restaurant at the hotel provides a variety of à la carte and buffet breakfast options.
Radisson Hotel & Residence Riyadh Olaya general manager Mohamad Saade said: "We've focused on creating a team that brings both personality and experience to the forefront to ensure our guests receive a distinctive and delightful service aligned with Radisson’s signature service."
The opening of Radisson Hotel & Residence Riyadh Olaya is a significant step for the group as it is in line with the KSA’s Vision 2030, which aims to enhance the country’s economic and tourism landscape.
Radisson Hotel Group MEA and SEAP COO Tim Cordon said: "The Kingdom's economic diversification plans and its burgeoning role as a tourist destination are in perfect synergy with our growth objectives. We see tremendous potential in contributing to and benefiting from the Kingdom's growth in the tourism and hospitality sectors.”
In May 2023, RHG announced plans to expand its portfolio to 150 properties in operation and under development in the Middle East by the end of this decade.
