IHG Hotels and Resorts has announced the opening of its second Staybridge Suites hotel in Saudi Arabia. Located in Alkhobar’s Olaya District and in the heart of the corporate and shopping hub of the city, Staybridge Suites Alkhobar City is the only IHG hotel to offer long-term accommodation, making it the ideal place for corporate visitors to the Eastern Province.
With its extensive expertise in hospitality, constant quest to satisfy experienced travelers, as well as its signature suites, Staybridge Suites offers premium accommodation experiences to guests, allowing them to feel comfortable, connected, and at home at all times.
The hotel provides easy access to the city’s most happening places, enabling guests to enjoy exceptional shopping experiences, such as at Al-Rashid Mall and Dhahran Mall, both of which are located only a few steps away from the hotel.
The hotel is also close to Alkhobar’s corporate district, which is only five minutes away, and Saudi Aramco — only 15 minutes from the hotel. Moreover, its proximity to King Abdulaziz Air Base makes it an ideal choice for Aramco visitors, armed forces officials, and entrepreneurs on short or long visits to the region, at attractive daily rates.
The hotel offers 68 spacious suites, which come in three types — studio, one-bedroom and two-bedroom — all of which are equipped with fully fitted kitchenettes, a comfortable living space, modern facilities, a well-lit workplace, free high-speed internet, luxurious bed furnishings, a velvet sofa and plenty of storage spaces. The rooms, further enhanced with panoramic views of Alkhobar, have been designed in a manner to offer unrivaled comfort, making them the perfect place for both long and short stays.
Staybridge Suites Alkhobar City offers high-end amenities for guests. As soon as they arrive at the hotel lobby, they are welcomed with snacks, drinks, and personal care items from The Pantry, which is open 24/7. The Pantry gives guests access to everything they need without having to leave the hotel.
In the morning, guests can start their day with a healthy and sumptuous breakfast — free of cost — along with their preferred choice of tea or coffee — available throughout the day.
The Social, a restaurant that serves meticulously curated international cuisines to cater to different tastes, is the ideal spot for guests to hang out at in the evenings with friends and others. Free drinks and snacks are available as well.
Wellness and fitness enthusiasts can work out at the health club or take a walk in the evening at the corniche. A seafront shopping promenade is only a 10-minute drive away.
Mark A. Allaf, regional general manager of IHG Hotels and Resorts, said: “Alkhobar is one of the main markets of IHG Hotels and Resorts, and Saudi Arabia is of strategic importance to our growth in the region.”
Allaf invited guests to experience the suites and studios of Staybridge Suites Alkhobar City, where “more space and a greater sense of comfort and community is created to provide a one-of-a-kind stay experience that breaks down the walls of monotonous, restrictive travel.”
“Our goal is to give our guests a sense of belonging to a larger community and to provide a relaxing atmosphere that helps them to focus their efforts on important things,” he added.
