Radisson Riyadh Airport set to open in late 2020

The Radisson Riyadh Airport is the newest addition to the Radisson Hotel Group portfolio. It brings the group’s portfolio to over 45 hotels, resorts and serviced apartments in operation/ under development.

Riyadh is the largest city and capital of Saudi Arabia. King Khalid International Airport is about 35 kilometres to the north of Riyadh city and home to Radisson’s newest hotel.

Elie Younes, chief development officer, Radisson Hotel Group, said: “Saudi Arabia is one of the eight key focus countries in EMEA.

“We align our plans along those of Saudi Arabia’s Vision 2030 which aims to significantly increase the contribution of tourism to the country’s economy.

“We thank our partners for their trust and look forward to opening the hotel later this year and to an exciting and rewarding journey.”

Opening late 2020, the hotel will complement Radisson Hotel Group’s array of city and leisure hotels across Riyadh.
