Shangri-La has made its brand debut in Saudi Arabia with a 220-key property, complete with three exceptional restaurants, extensive wellness facilities, and a dedicated kids’ club.
Situated in the exclusive Burj Assila – a 64-storey architectural icon and Jeddah’s tallest building at an impressive 260m high – the hotel forms part of the two-billion Saudi Riyal, 60,015 square metre mixed-use development project.
The 220 world-class accommodations, including 148 deluxe guestrooms and 55 suites, as well as 17 serviced apartments, feature views over the Red Sea and the Jeddah skyline from floor-to-ceiling windows which illuminate the light colour palette, with blue and beige accents awaiting guests.
Guaranteed to become one of the city’s most exciting dining addresses, Shangri-La Jeddah’s restaurants blend traditional flavours with local influences and modern techniques for a one-of-a-kind experience. The new outpost of award-winning restaurant Shang Palace, a new home in Jeddah for soulful modern Chinese cuisine, infuses traditional Chinese motifs and Arabesque patterns, creating a see-and-be-seen space inspired by traditional courtyard siheyuan houses where the service and ambience are as exciting as the food.
Additionally, guests can experience a truly interactive culinary experience at The Waterfront Kitchen, a yacht-inspired all-day-dining restaurant with vibrant live cooking stations and a range of global delicacies, or gather and relax at exquisite boutique patisserie COPA, where the fine art of coffee and chocolate pairing meet.
The Wellness Club at Shangri-La will offer extensive health and wellness facilities for men and women across two floors, including a full range of state-of-the-art Technogym cardio machines and weights. The facility is also home to The Spa at Shangri-La, featuring a bespoke menu by award-winning experts Natura Bissé, a sauna and Jacuzzi, as well as a Hammam with a range of treatment rooms.
A serene 25-metre outdoor swimming pool with spectacular sea-view is located on the seventh floor alongside extensive recreational facilities.
