About Shangri-La Jeddah
- Interior designer AB Concept, the Hong Kong studio, gave the 220 guestrooms nautical accents of light wood panelling and blue-patterned carpets to root an Asian-heritage brand in a Red Sea address.
- The hotel's 960 m² Grand Ballroom is cantilevered with floor-to-ceiling windows directly overlooking the Red Sea, one of the largest hotel ballrooms in Jeddah with an unobstructed sea view.
- Entry-level rooms start at 560 sq ft (52 m²).
History
Shangri-La Jeddah opened in 2022 as the brand's first property in Saudi Arabia, in the 64-story Burj Assila tower, Jeddah's tallest building, along the Jeddah Waterfront. Floor-to-ceiling windows frame panoramic views of the Red Sea coast and the Jeddah Corniche Circuit.
The setting
Shangri-La Jeddah occupies the upper floors of Burj Assila, a 264-metre, 65-storey tower completed in 2021 and one of the most recognisable landmarks on the Jeddah skyline, rising above Al Kurnaysh Branch Road in Ash Shati overlooking the Red Sea. The tower's prominence along the North Corniche, a 12-kilometre seafront promenade, puts the hotel in the city's Vision 2030 waterfront belt. Floor-to-ceiling windows deliver panoramic Red Sea views, while the Ash Shati address offers immediate access to the waterfront parkway, entertainment venues, and the shopping corridors that define the corniche. 5 km from Alrahmah Mosque.
