Dewan Architects + Engineers announces opening of Hilton Garden Inn Al Jubail
Project is said to be a significant milestone in the realisation of Dewan’s expansion plans in the Kingdom
The new 133-key Hilton Garden Inn Al Jubail is now open for business according to Dewan Architects + Engineers. The eight-storey project is the fourth Hilton Garden Inn property in the Kingdom and will serve as a ‘contemporary hospitality haven in the heart of Al Jubail’.
The hotel is said to feature a modern form and is billed as a new visual anchor for the city, the projects’ lead consultant and designer explained.
“The completion of Hilton Garden Inn Al Jubail marks a key moment in this district’s transformation. The hotel’s contemporary architectural expression reflects the spirit of its surroundings – a growing and constantly evolving city,” said Ammar Al Assam, executive director at Dewan Architects + Engineers.
According to the statement from Dewan, Al Jubail has transformed itself from a fishing village into the largest industrial city in the world. It is home to the region’s largest and world’s fourth largest petrochemical company, Sabic.
The location of the Hilton Garden Inn Al Jubail offers easy access to companies working on projects in the region including Sabic, Sadara, Tasnee, Petro Kemya, Maaden, Marafiq, King Fahd Industrial Port, Dow Chemicals, Exxon, Total, Schlumberger, Saipem-Snamprogetti, Halliburton and Baker Hughes, the statement said.
“We have already established a strong base in Saudi Arabia which is a market in which the firm has grown well in the last 12 years. Many of Dewan Architects + Engineers’ projects in the Kingdom serve as a benchmark for future developments in the region. We are now even more excited about Saudi Vision 2030, which we plan to be a part of as we further cement our foothold in the Kingdom as leading architects and engineers,” remarked Al Assam.
According to Al Assam, the Hilton Garden Inn Al Jubail is a significant milestone in the realisation of Dewan’s larger growth plan for Saudi Arabia with several other major projects in the region.
Aligning with Dewan Architects + Engineers’ ‘go green’ initiatives, Hilton Hotels recently announced it is partnering with Clean the World, an organisation that collects used soaps from hotels, melts them down, sanitises them and creates brand new bars of soap for people in need.
