THE Park Hyatt Jeddah Marina Club and Spa opened last month, marking its entry into the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.
Set among landscaped gardens on the Corniche of Jeddah, the new Hyatt is a five star hotel offering contemporary luxury, good service and views of the Red Sea and King Fahd fountain with its more than 312 metre high plume of water.
The hotel is in the heart of the city, within the Al Hamra District at the Equestrian Club of Jeddah, and minutes away from the central business district.
The 34.5 acre resort is an engineering feat, formed from reclaimed prime waterfront land from the Red Sea. It will feature 10,000 sq m of spa and wellness facilities, the Lazurde Meetings & Events Centre, a yacht marina, as well as a variety of restaurants and lounges.
There are 142 guestrooms, including 15 suites, featuring exclusive home comforts combined with business and entertainment gadgetry. The bathrooms offer indulgences such as deep soaking baths and rain showers.
Opening soon is the Lazurde Meetings & Events Centre adjacent to Park Hyatt Jeddah. It is accessible by a dedicated entrance for total discretion and convenience, and will be ideal for wedding parties, product launches, corporate meetings and conferences for up to 800 guests. The 756 sq m ballroom can be divided into three separate spaces, and additionally, the exclusive Palm Courtyard is able to accommodate up to 900 guests for outdoor events by the Red Sea.
The central Lobby Lounge includes the Cigar Room, which will serve a variety of high quality cigars from around the world. Nafoura Restaurant offers Mediterranean cuisine and an additional four food and beverage outlets will open soon.
