Olayan Financing Company CEO Nabeel Al-Amudi said: “We are delighted to team up with Ennismore for this exciting project, which will bring one of the world’s most sought-after hospitality brands to the Kingdom.

“Our partnerships with leading global players come as part of OFC’s long-term strategy to meet the evolving needs of residents and tourists in Saudi Arabia and support the Kingdom’s journey toward achieving the goals of Vision 2030, the wise leadership’s roadmap to sustainable prosperity.”

Ennismore co-CEO Gaurav Bhushan said: “We are excited to be partnering with Olayan Financing Company to bring the first Mondrian Hotel and Residence to Saudi Arabia and the first Ennismore property to the country’s capital, Riyadh.

“Mondrian Riyadh Al Malga will bring the city a unique lifestyle and hospitality experience. We look forward to raising the bar as a cultural and gastronomic destination for discerning travellers and locals alike.”
