Movenpick Hotel City Star Jeddah opens its doors
Mövenpick Hotels & Resorts has opened the doors to the Mövenpick Hotel City Star Jeddah.
The new 228-room Mövenpick Hotel City Star Jeddah, which marks the Swiss hospitality firm’s third hotel in Jeddah and 11th in the Kingdom, blends a classical interior design with a contemporary façade, according to a company statement.
Located near to both the Al Harthy Exhibition Centre and Mall of Arabia, and just a 15-minute drive from King Abdulaziz International Airport, the five-star hotel caters to business, leisure and MICE-related travellers.
Mövenpick Hotels & Resorts group chief executive officer Abdullah Aldawood said Mövenpick Hotels & Resorts had been selected to operate the property due to its “strong track record operating successful properties across Jeddah and Saudi Arabia”.
“We are therefore confident that our new project, Mövenpick Hotel City Star Jeddah, will set new hospitality standards in this area of the city, catering well to its thriving business and leisure tourism industry,” he added.
Hotel facilities include eight meeting rooms, a Palladian-style ballroom capable of accommodating up to 600 guests, the Al Maha Health Club & Spa and a rooftop swimming pool.
Mövenpick Hotel City Star Jeddah has three restaurants, including all-day dining outlet Al Deira, the Al Moltaqa Café, and Al Zohoor Garden located next to the rooftop pool.
The deal to manage Mövenpick Hotel City Star Jeddah has been signed with AlTayyar Travel Group, the only publicly-listed travel group in Saudi Arabia.
