Dusit unveils new hotel projects in Saudi, Qatar

BANGKOK, May 5, 2015

Dusit International, a leading hotel and resort company, has unveiled the first two projects of the newly established joint venture hotel management company in Saudi Arabia.

The Dusit Thani Jeddah and dusitD2 Salwa Doha (Qatar) were confirmed by the new firm, which is a collaboration between Dusit and local partners Dyar Hotels and Resorts, said a statement.

Scheduled to open in 2018 in the Saudi Arabia’s second largest city, the Dusit Thani Jeddah will come under Dusit’s original upper-upscale hotel brand Dusit Thani, it said.

The hotel will offer 211 guest rooms, including 38 suites and one Royal Suite, besides dining options ranging from a coffee shop to all-day dining and specialty restaurants.

It will also feature an ‘Executive Lounge’, business centre and multi-purpose hall to suit various meetings and event needs for business travellers.

Additionally, a dedicated floor for female guests, separate male and female spas and a swimming pool will ensure guests have a thoroughly comfortable stay. 

The dusitD2 Salwa is also slated to open in 2018 and will come under Dusit’s chic and contemporary ‘next generation’ dusitD2 brand, offering 240 guest rooms including 28 suites.

Operated in a shariah-compliant manner, the two specialty restaurants, an all-day dining option, two wedding halls, 10 meeting rooms, a swimming pool and spa will provide facilities and services to suit all travellers.

The dusitD2 Salwa will be located right in the heart of Doha, just minutes away from tourist attractions such as the Doha Fort, Souq Waquif and the Qatar National Museum.

Aside from these projects, a further five properties are currently under negotiation by the JV company in the holy cities of Makkah and Madinah, said the statement.

Andrew Shaw, director of development - Europe, Middle East and Africa, Dusit International, said: “We are thrilled to move ahead on these two exciting projects which set solid foundations for the JV.

“We are confident that with the support of our partners at Dyar Hotels and Resorts, who have over 30 years of local expertise, we will succeed in bringing completely unique products to the market, marrying our hallmark gracious Thai hospitality with local customs and traditions.” - TradeArabia News Service
