RIYADH: The developer of one of 蹤獲弝け's UNESCO泭heritage泭sites, is teaming up with international luxury hotel Four Seasons to build a new hotel at the site located in Riyadh.
Proving that the old can coexist with the new, Diriyah Gate Development Authority said in a statement that the hotel will have 150 rooms and suites, expansive meeting and event spaces, a wellness spa and a fitness center.
The partnership's timing aligns with 蹤獲弝け's efforts to invest in non-oil sectors as tourism is expected to contribute 15 percent泭more to the Kingdom's GDP by 2030, which is predicted to hit $1.86 trillion.
Four Seasons is working alongside DGDA to elevate what travellers can experience within Diriyah, showcasing their timeless approach to hospitality whilst staying true to Diriyahs rich cultural past, said泭Jerry Inzerillo, Group CEO of Diriyah Gate Development Authority.泭
"We are excited to share further developments on this project in the coming months," he added.
The hotel will be located adjacent to Diriyahs culturally rooted district along the Wadi Hanifah escarpment, with incredible views towards the west and the UNESCO World Heritage Site, At-Turaif.泭
Inspired by local tradition, the hotel design will have "a unique aesthetic that is being developed by leading design architects, Aedas and Elastik interior designers," the statement added.泭
