Fairmont Hotels & Resorts reports that it will be opening three new properties in Saudi Arabia over the course of the next four years.
The expansion, which aligns with the Kingdom’s Saudi Vision 2030, will see Fairmont Red Sea open by the end of 2025, Fairmont Ajdan Al Khobar in 2027, and Fairmont Rua Madinah in 2028.
“At Fairmont, we pursue growth with intention, selecting destinations that reflect our commitment to timeless hospitality and cultural resonance. Saudi Arabia is one of the world’s most dynamic tourist destinations, offering untold opportunities for growth, and we are proud to play a role in shaping its hospitality landscape,” said Maarten Den Nieuwenhuijsen, senior vice-president, Openings and Guest Experiences, Fairmont Hotels & Resorts. “I am confident that our upcoming openings will not only contribute to the Kingdom’s luxury hospitality offering but also foster meaningful connections with guests and communities. These projects are a testament to the strength of our development pipeline and our long-term commitment to the region.”
