Radisson Hotels to double Saudi portfolio by 2030

Global hospitality group Radisson Hotels is accelerating its expansion across Saudi Arabia, targeting 100 operational and pipeline properties in the kingdom by 2030. 

 

The growth has been driven by a series of new agreements signed throughout 2025 and into 2026, representing more than 1,500 planned keys. The expansion has been supported by owner confidence and growing demand across key Saudi cities from business, religious and leisure travellers.

 

As of 2026, Radisson has reached around half of its 2030 target, with nearly 50 open and under-development properties. The group expects to add further 1,000 more rooms in H2 2026 alone, making the kingdom one of Radisson’s key growth regions within the Middle East. 

 

Elie Milky, Regional Chief Development Officer for the Middle East, Northeast Africa, Greece and Cyprus, said: "Saudi Arabia is one of our top five markets globally and one of the strongest growth opportunities for Radisson Hotel Group."

Recent openings have added more than 1,200 rooms across Riyadh, Jeddah and Madinah, with a diversified portfolio spanning extended-stay hotels and serviced residences. 

 

New properties include the 170-apartment Radisson Collection Residence Riyadh, the Radisson Hotel Jeddah Tahlia in the city’s commercial district and the Radisson Hotel Madinah, located near the Quba Mosque.

 

Among the upcoming openings is a Park Inn by Radisson within Knowledge Economic City in Madinah, featuring 587 rooms and 146 apartments.

 

The expansion aligns with Saudi Vision 2030 as infrastructure investment across the kingdom accelerates. Other hotel groups are also expanding in Saudi, with Marriott International planning 10 new hotels over the next four years in partnership with Blacksand.
