Hilton Worldwide has added three more hotels to the development pipeline for its midscale Hilton Garden Inn brand, with new properties lined up in Dubai and Saudi Arabia.
Hilton Garden Inn Dubai Al Jadaf, owned by AIG Investments, is expected to open in early 2017, while Hilton Garden Inn Al Ahsa and Hilton Garden Inn Al Khobar King Fahd Causeway, both owned by Al Jazeera Group, will open in 2016.
Rudi Jagersbacher, president, Middle East and Africa for Hilton Worldwide, said: “Hilton Garden Inn is an exciting proposition for investors in the Middle East as Hilton Worldwide continues to grow its presence in the value segment across the region.
“With significant focus on the development of mid-market accommodation in Dubai and clear opportunity in locations across Saudi and the wider GCC, we are delighted to be adding to this momentum with the signing of agreements to open three new properties.”
