The Radisson Collection Hotel in Riyadh is now welcoming guests. Located only 98km’s from Riyadh’s City, the Nofa Resort Riyadh, A Radisson Collection Hotel is nestled in a landscape of golden sand dunes. The resort features 57 secluded luxury villas and bungalows designed in an elegant African style, with premium amenities including a private swimming pool and garden.While the hotel was previously operated as a members-only resort, Radisson Hotel Group is excited to announce that it is now publicly bookable exclusively through their website Radissonhotels.com

Known as a premium lifestyle collection, boasting unique locations in great destinations, Radisson Collection Hotels offer the ultimate template for contemporary living – united by modern design and exceptional experiences. While customers are looking to gain new experiences and develop themselves, these hotels aim to serve the guest’s lifestyle and attitude to life, to create a more emotional experience.

“The Nofa Resort Riyadh, A Radisson Collection Hotel, is an iconic and exceptionally exclusive product which we previously operated as a private members-only resort. We have received numerous requests from individual guests wanting to experience the beauty of this Safari jewel in the Saudi desert and we are excited that the hotel is now publicly bookable and accessible to everyone,” said Tim Cordon, Area Senior Vice President, Middle East & Africa.

“The international travel ban in Saudi Arabia has also been a driving force for the local demand with many searching for a peaceful sanctuary to escape to, while feeling completely free and safeguarded from the contraction and spread of COVID-19,” he added. 

The resort overlooks Nofa Wildlife Park, where guests can experience a unique African safari that’s home to more than 700 animals – including zebras, sables, giraffes, cheetahs and many other wild animals. Other exciting leisure activities include the impressive equestrian resort that features a show jumping arena, a specialized racetrack, a polo field and an extensive stable complex. Its extensive leisure facilities include the Nofa Spa & Health Club, which offers a range of specialized treatments for massages and facials. The resort also has two outdoor swimming pools, including a separate swimming pool for female guests. Families are well catered for with the special Kids’ Club area and spacious grounds.

Guests can even test themselves with a round of golf at one of the top courses in Saudi Arabia. The 18-hole course makes use of the natural desert landscape to set a challenge for even the most experienced golfers.
