Mövenpick Signs Fourth Hotel in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia

Mövenpick Hotels & Resorts has signed its fourth property in Saudi Arabia’s thriving city of Jeddah.

The 300-key Mövenpick Hotel Heraa Jeddah, which is scheduled to open in the first quarter of 2019, will take Mövenpick’s KSA offering to 14 properties strong.

Set to occupy a prime location on Prince Sultan Road, the Mövenpick Hotel Heraa Jeddah is one of five Saudi new builds being rolled out by the hospitality firm over the next four years, with two planned for Riyadh, one for Al Khobar and the 233-key Mövenpick Hotel City Star Jeddah.

“The hotel is just five minutes from Jeddah’s King Abdulaziz International Airport, which is currently undergoing a US$7.2 billion expansion to take its ultimate capacity to 80 million passengers annually. We will therefore be the first point of call for travellers stopping in Jeddah en-route to the two Holy Cities, Makkah and Madinah,” said Andreas Mattmüller, Chief Operating Officer, Mövenpick Hotels & Resorts, Middle East and Asia.

The hotel will be in close proximity to high-profile mega developments such as the Kingdom Tower and Jeddah Waterfront. It will feature several F&B outlets including two signature restaurants, plus a ballroom, seven meeting rooms, health club with gym, and seven stand-alone villas.
