Hilton to open two properties in...

New openings will be part of an integrated destination from Saudi developer Osus

Hilton will open a Hilton Garden Inn and a Curio Collection branded residences, in the upcoming Osus Eye development in Saudi Arabia's capital Riyadh.

Osus Eye is described by Saudi real estate firm Osus as a "fully integrated tourism and hospitality destination". Once complete, it will include retail, offices, entertainment and green spaces.

The 250-key Hilton Garden Inn Riyadh Osus Eye will have multiple dining options, including a rooftop venue and a juice bar, as well as a fitness centre and swimming pool.

Curio Collection Residences by Hilton will offer 176 units from studios to two-bedroom apartments and residents will have access to a concierge and valet, a cafe, fitness centre, pool, wellness rooms, a salon and a cinema.

The developers say Opus Eye will incorporate smart city technologies and design to create a sustainable community for residents and visitors.

Carlos Khneisser, VP Development, MEA at Hilton said: "We look forward to delivering hotels and residential projects that meet the diverse demands of today’s travellers and lifestyle home buyers."

Hilton operates 21 hotels in the kingdom and is set to more than quadruple its presence here with more than 70 hotels under development, including three resorts at farm-based tourism destination Al Ahsa and the first Waldorf Astoria in Madinah.

This will add more than 18,000 keys to its growing portfolio, and create some 15,000 jobs. With these developments, Hilton is set to double its footprint in the Middle East, with a total of 130 new properties.

One of its new openings is Hyatt Place AlUla Hotel which will debut at the end of 2025, with 215 rooms, two dining venues, a pool, fitness centre and a meeting space.

Located just 25km from AlUla International Airport, this property is within easy reach of key attractions, including the 12th-century Old Town and Jabal Ikmah, a mountain surrounded by rocks filled with ancient inscriptions.

Miraval The Red Sea, a wellness-focused resort is also set to make its debut late 2025 and the Grand Hyatt The Red Sea by 2026.

In January 2025, Hilton hotel group and Saudi Tourism Authority (STA) partnered on a global campaign that celebrates Saudi Arabia’s travel offerings.
