History
Jumeirah announced in 2017 that it would operate its first hotel in Saudi Arabia in Makkah, with opening targeted for early 2019. The property is part of the Jabal Omar development near Masjid al-Haram and was planned as a large four-tower, multi-use luxury hotel complex with 1,033 rooms and suites plus apartments and residences. Jumeirah’s own property pages describe it as one of the brand’s largest hotels, spread across four towers and offering direct views toward Masjid Al Haram. The hotel is notable for serving pilgrims seeking luxury accommodations in one of Islam’s most significant settings.
The setting
Jumeirah Jabal Omar Makkah stands in the Al Shubaikah quarter of the Jabal Omar district, on Ibrahim Al-Khalil Road to the west of Al Masjid al-Haram. Jabal Omar was redeveloped from 2008 onward, replacing a dense, unplanned settlement with a contemporary Islamic architectural ensemble of high-rise hotels, residences, and retail podiums that serve the city's vast pilgrim population. The Holy Kaaba lies five minutes on foot, while the Abraj Al-Bait Clock Towers complex is reachable in eleven minutes. The hotel sits within an acclaimed cluster of luxury brands along this sacred corridor, offering guests both immediate spiritual access and the refined infrastructure of a world-class pilgrimage destination. 5 km from Alhokair Time family amusement park.
