Riyadh’s ultra luxurious hotel, Al Faisaliah Hotel, A Rosewood Hotel, re-affirmed its leadership position in the regions’ hospitality industry, after the hotel was recognised as “Best Hotel for Saudi Arabia” at the prestigious Arabian Hotel Awards 2012.
The Arabian Hotel Awards are part of the International Property Awards, which have been running for 18 years, and have been created because of the increasing number of entries received from the hospitality industry for its commercial categories.
