JEDDAH, Saudi Arabia<\/span>, March 19, 2024<\/span> \/PRNewswire\/ — Jeddah Historic District today launches the restoration and regeneration of three historic properties in Al Balad into luxury hotels, an area of great historical and cultural significance on the West Coast of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia<\/span>, with UNESCO heritage protection.

All guests of the properties will be enveloped in the heritage and history of the area, greeted with coffee and rose-infused tea upon arrival and given the opportunity to personalise their visit ahead of time. Everything from the chocolates in their airport transfer to the scent of incense in their room is personalised, offering guests a home away from home. All guests are also offered complimentary airport transfers on arrival and departure.<\/p>\n

The properties are part of a wider restoration of a collection of heritage properties and represent the first 17 keys to open of a further 165 keys that will belong to 34 heritage properties that will open by 2027.<\/p>\n
