The Ritz-Carlton Riyadh, the company's first hotel in Saudi Arabia, opens today.
But not all services in the 493-room hotel are available - the Club Lounge, for example, won't open until January 14 and lounge services for Royal Suite guests will be available in their suites.
Online rates are SR1900 for Deluxe rooms, SR2100 for Superior rooms and SR4500 for one-bedroom Executive Suites.
The grand hotel, which originally targeted a summer opening, contains 50 one-bedroom Executive Suites, measuring 95sqm, and 49 two-bedroom Royal Suites, each measuring more than 425sqm.
F&B venues comprise Al Orjouan (all-day dining), Azzuro (Italian), Hong (Asian), Turquoise Cigar Lounge and Chorisia Lounge, and leisure facilities include a six-lane bowling alley.
Set in 52 acres of landscaped gardens, the hotel offers more than 5,800sqm of conference space, including two colossal ballrooms in a separate wing that are both 1,970sqm.
