Opening
A 23 story hight rise 5-star luxury hotel in Jeddah will be completed shortly. The hotel has five-star facilities and also have motel facilities for foreigners. The owner/design team sought to question established anti-public hotel tropes — the grand entry… the “hotel” restaurant… the empty lobby. Instead, the team chose to minimize the hotel identity and create something that is not so much a hotel with supporting amenities beneath than a collection of public-oriented food and drinks establishments that happen to have hotel rooms above.
