In a glittering addition to Saudi Arabia's hospitality scene, The St. Regis Riyadh has opened its doors, becoming the 500th luxury property in Marriott International's global portfolio. Nestled in the prestigious Via Riyadh development, this boutique luxury hotel is a testament to modern design, bespoke service, and avant-garde architecture.

Situated at the entrance of the Diplomatic Quarter and surrounded by designer boutiques, Michelin-star restaurants, and a luxury cinema, The St. Regis Riyadh stands as the sole hotel within the Via Riyadh enclave. With its proximity to embassies and the central business district, the hotel offers a perfect blend of exclusivity and convenience.

The architectural marvel of the hotel, cast from ancient Tuwaiq mountain stone, reflects the essence of Salmani architecture, celebrating local design while exuding modernity. Guests are greeted by a grand curved staircase and a crystal chandelier in the lobby, offering a glimpse into the country's storied past and its vibrant future. Artwork curated by Kristina Zanic adorns the walls and guestrooms, seamlessly blending tradition with contemporary minimalism.

The St. Regis Riyadh, the first boutique-style luxury hotel in the capital, boasts 83 guestrooms, including 21 suites and a magnificent two-bedroom Royal Suite. Each room, designed with metallic hues of gold and copper, alongside beige and blues, reflects a sophisticated St. Regis style infused with locally inspired touches. The legendary St. Regis Butler Service ensures a personalized experience for each guest.

Dining at The St. Regis Riyadh is a culinary journey. The Drawing Room, an elegant lounge, serves coffee and artisan pastries, while Jackie, inspired by Jackie Kennedy Onassis' love of the Mediterranean, offers American Greek cuisine in a familial setting. Stella Sky, the rooftop venue, transitions from a day of poolside relaxation to a night of live entertainment, sheesha, and Saudi-spiced sushi and sashimi.

For those seeking relaxation, The St. Regis Spa is an oasis of calm, featuring domed ceilings reminiscent of Italian architectural structures. With signature treatments and luxurious amenities, it provides a rejuvenating escape. The hotel also features a rooftop pool with panoramic views, a fully equipped gym, and a versatile ballroom for grand events.

“The opening of The St. Regis Riyadh ushers in a new benchmark of luxury in Saudi Arabia offering guests a modern viewpoint on bespoke service, sophisticated dining and avant-garde design set within a new, iconic landmark in the capital,” said Jenni Benzaquen, SVP and Global Brand Leader, The Ritz-Carlton and St. Regis. 

As Saudi Arabia's dynamic landscape continues to evolve, The St. Regis Riyadh stands as a beacon of luxury, blending tradition with innovation, and offering guests an exceptional experience that reflects both the destination's history and the St. Regis brand's legacy.
