Emaar to launch first Address Hotel in Makkah

The Jabal Omar Address Makkah, scheduled to open in 2019, is located just steps away from the Grand Mosque. With two elegantly designed identical towers, Jabal Omar Address Makkah is centrally located and forms the tallest towers within the master development. An interconnecting bridge linking the two towers serves as a visual landmark of the project. The hotel will have 1,490 rooms and suites.

Mohamed Alabbar, Chairman of Emaar Properties, said: “We are honored to mark the expansion of Address Hotels + Resorts, the premium luxury hotel brand under Emaar Hospitality Group, to Saudi Arabia with the signing of this important management contract with Jabal Omar Development Company.”

Olivier Harnisch, Chief Executive Officer of Emaar Hospitality Group, added: “Saudi Arabia is one of our focal destinations to expand the footprint of our hotel brands. Jabal Omar development stands out for its unique design features and amenities, and will appeal to religious visitors as well as investors.”

Jabal Omar Address Makkah will also have easy connectivity for visitors with the opening of the Haramain High Speed Rail that links the Holy City with Madinah via Jeddah and King Abdullah Economic City.
