Radisson Blu Opens in Riyadh’s Up-and-Coming Sahafa District
Think 171 sleek rooms with skyline views, rooftop sunsets at The Terrace, international eats at Al Diwan, a Kids’ Club, gym & spa on the way.
Radisson Blu has officially opened its latest outpost in Saudi Arabia—this time in Riyadh’s fast-growing Sahafa District.
Just moments from Riyadh Boulevard, Al Nakheel Mall, and King Salman Park, the new Radisson Blu Hotel, Riyadh Al Sahafa places guests in one of the capital’s most vibrant corners.
Design-wise, the hotel mirrors the energy of the city itself. Clean lines, floor-to-ceiling windows, and a palette of contemporary textures invite natural light in, while subtle nods to Riyadh’s evolving skyline add a sense of local character. The surrounding Sahafa District brings a breath of greenery to the urban rush.
The hotel’s 171 rooms and suites are sleek and spacious, each tailored with custom layouts and skyline views that stretch toward the King Abdullah Financial District. Whether you're in for a quick city break or a longer stay, the interiors balance modern comfort with natural light and clever functionality.
Guests can refuel at Al Diwan’s international buffet, savour Mediterranean flavours and sunset views at The Terrace, or unwind with fresh coffee and handmade pastries at Al Multaqa Café under soft lobby lighting.
As for the facilities, they speak to both families and business travellers: there’s a Kids’ Club, a fully equipped fitness centre, and a spa on the way. For events, five naturally lit meeting rooms and a grand 560-sqm ballroom—designed for up to 400 guests—make it easy to host at scale.
With this launch, Radisson Blu’s footprint in Saudi Arabia now includes more than 50 hotels in operation or development.
