Park Inn by Radisson opens in Najran, Saudi Arabia

Upper midscale hotel brand Park Inn by Radisson has announced the opening of its first hotel in Najran, Saudi Arabia.

The 113-room Park Inn by Radisson Hotel Najran is located on King Saud Road in the Al Fahad District, a few minutes away from the ministries, Aramco, and the industrial zone.

This opening takes the group’s Saudi portfolio to 38 hotels, and over 10,000 rooms in operation and under development.

Tim Cordon, area senior vice president, Middle East, Turkey and Africa, Carlson Rezidor Hotel Group, said: “We are very pleased to announce the opening of Park Inn by Radisson Najran in Saudi Arabia.

“We have seen the market within the Kingdom grow through increased domestic travel, a short supply of midscale hotels especially for corporate travellers and the sustained growth of religious tourism.

“The upper midscale Park Inn by Radisson brand will continue to gain momentum as we launch new hotels in key cities and secondary locations across the Middle East, Turkey & Africa.”

Park Inn by Radisson Hotel Najran is situated on King Saud Road, the main highway that connects Najran to the Kingdom’s primary cities. The hotel overlooks Najran Football Stadium and is close to the city’s shopping centres, while a number of historic attractions surround the city such as Turki Al Madi Palace, Raoum Castle and Najran Valley Dam.

The hotel features a range of guest rooms and executive suites with individual climate control, mood lighting system and free high-speed wireless internet access.

For dining and relaxation, the hotel’s “Live-inn room” concept offers a common social space where guests can enjoy breakfast, while the RBG restaurant provides a modern, international dining experience for lunch and dinner. The Shisha Lounge Café offers relaxing space to enjoy a selection of beverages and snacks.

The hotel’s meetings and events space include five modern meeting rooms spanning 180 square metres. The event space accommodates 50 attendees and is ideal for corporate or social occasions.

Qayum Minhas, hotel manager, Park Inn by Radisson Najran, said: “We are delighted to launch the Park Inn by Radisson brand in Najran, one of the fastest growing cities in the Kingdom.

“The hotel is an ideal choice for business travellers visiting the nearby ministries, chamber of commerce and corporate offices, while we also look forward to welcoming leisure guests and families visiting Najran.”
