Rotana progresses 2020 vision with 14 openings

Rotana Hotel Management Corporation, one of the major hospitality management groups in the MEA, South Asia and Eastern Europe, is set to continue its expansion with the opening of 14 properties across the remainder of 2015 and 2016.
With flourishing development being made in its growth strategy, Rotana is further strengthening its presence in Turkey and Bahrain, while 2016 will also see the opening of the group’s first property in the capital of the Democratic Republic of Congo, marking Rotana’s increasing footprint in Africa. The hotels add 3,769 rooms to Rotana’s existing 13,875 strong room count across its global property portfolio.
Omer Kaddouri, president and CEO of Rotana, comments: “Rotana has a very robust development pipeline for 2016. By extending the Rotana brand into new cities while also reinforcing our market leadership in the Middle East, we have come closer to realizing our ambitious vision of operating 100 hotels by 2020. With a carefully considered international development strategy in place, we are constantly looking for growth opportunities and all of these markets presented opportunities for Rotana to extend our award-winning hospitality offering.”
In particular, a breakthrough into Kinshasa in the Democratic Republic of Congo is a significant landmark for Rotana as this is a new territory for us in which we will be addressing the needs of a rapidly developing market. We are confident that the hotel will offer world-class standards in hospitality and we look forward to expanding our offering for travelers across Africa."
Al-Marwa Rayhaan by Rotana welcomes guests to Makkah to enjoy the comfort through more than 480 deluxe rooms, a number of which feature a spectacular view over the holy mosque.
Rotana made sure all rooms are fully equipped with the necessities required to make them feel at home and many offer additional luxury options.
