AccorHotels opened the 88-key Suite Novotel Riyadh Dyar, the French operator’s 15th property in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, this week.
The property has 88 suites with floor-to-ceiling windows and is located in the city centre.
The launch also marks its fifth Riyadh property and takes the number of rooms it has in the Saudi capital up to almost 2000, with more than 12,500 across the Kingdom.
Commenting on the opening, Christophe Landais, chief operating officer of AccorHotels Middle East, said: “This successful opening underscores the strong opportunity for hospitality in Saudi Arabia, especially in the midscale range which continues to be undersupplied.
“Our second Suite Novotel in Riyadh – following Suite Novotel Riyadh Olaya – also serves to demonstrate our commitment to this important, fast-growing market.
