Riyadh continues its hotel boom with the latest addition to its hospitality scene – Radisson Blu Hotel, Riyadh Al Sahafa. Located in the capital’s growing Sahafa District, the hotel is just 20 minutes from King Khalid International Airport, offering easy access for business and leisure travellers alike.
It’s also within close reach of Riyadh Boulevard, King Salman Social Centre Park, and the King Abdullah Financial District (KAFD) – making it a practical base whether you’re in town for meetings or a weekend break.

The hotel features 171 rooms and suites, with many offering skyline views through floor-to-ceiling windows. Rooms are designed with a clean, modern look that blends contemporary comfort with Saudi cultural touches.
While it’s set in an urban neighbourhood, the property is surrounded by greenery, adding a relaxed atmosphere without losing connection to the city’s energy.
Radisson Blu Hotel, Riyadh Al Sahafa isn’t just about a good night’s sleep. It also hosts several dining options:
- Al Diwan Restaurant
- The Terrace Restaurant and Lounge
- Al Multaqa Café

There’s also a Kids’ Club for families, a fully equipped gym, and business-friendly facilities including a Sidra Grand Ballroom (capacity: up to 400 guests) and five meeting rooms.
Whether you’re travelling for work or bringing the family, the hotel is designed to accommodate different types of guests.
This isn’t the only new hotel worth noting in Riyadh. The Red Palace, a historic landmark in the city, is also set to open soon as a hotel – giving travellers another unique option when planning their stay in the capital.
