Radisson Hotel Group Opens Its First Hotel In Madinah

Radisson's Madinah Debut

Radisson Hotel Group has unveiled the Radisson Hotel Madinah, introducing the Radisson brand to one of Saudi Arabia’s most esteemed locations. Nestled in Madinah, this hotel provides a contemporary and refined haven for business travellers, leisure visitors, and those on spiritual journeys.

Radisson Hotel Madinah features 165 rooms, comprising 53 business units, and presents a combination of Scandinavian-inspired hospitality and contemporary elegance. The hotel’s design and colour scheme provide an escape for guests, whether relaxing after a busy day or gearing up for their Umrah pilgrimage.

Badr Abdelaziz, General Manager, Radisson Hotel Madinah said: “The hotel team and I are proud to welcome guests to the first Radisson-branded property in Madinah. We are fully committed to delivering world-class service to all our guests, whether they’re here for business, leisure, or as part of their Umrah trip.”

Various amenities, such as a lobby café, a full-service restaurant, and a poolside juice bar, are available to guests. Designed to encourage relaxation and unwinding, every detail has been crafted to inspire and delight.

The new hotel is positioned just outside the Al Haram area near key landmarks. It is only 3 km from the Prophet’s Mosque and 750m from Quba Mosque, the oldest mosque in Islamic history. Additionally, it is conveniently situated 16km from Prince Mohammed Bin Abdulaziz International Airport and 10km from Madinah train station, which offers easy connections to Jeddah and Makkah. This location ensures easy access, making it a perfect hub for business and leisure travellers.

Madinah, also known as Al Madinah Al Munawwarah (The Enlightened City), is one of Islam’s most spiritually significant cities. Renowned as the second holiest city after Makkah, it attracts millions of pilgrims annually who visit the Prophet’s Mosque, home to the resting place of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH). Rich in history and culture, Madinah offers visitors a blend of spiritual experiences, heritage landmarks, and Arabian hospitality. Notable historical sites include the Quba Mosque, the first mosque built in Islamic history, and Mount Uhud, the site of the famous Battle of Uhud. With its markets, local cuisine, and atmosphere, Madinah promises an enriching stay for visitors and pilgrims alike.

“The opening of Radisson Hotel Madinah marks a significant milestone for Radisson Hotel Group in our commitment to delivering upscale, innovative hospitality. Signed less than a year ago, this opening further demonstrates our dedication to rapidly growing our presence by successfully bringing our signed projects to life.” said Tim Cordon, COO, Middle East, Africa & Southeast Asia Pacific, Radisson Hotel Group.

Radisson Hotel Group operates over 30 hotels in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. The opening of Radisson Hotel Madinah underscores the Group’s dedication to supporting Saudi Arabia’s Vision 2030 by elevating the country’s hospitality landscape.
