Tourexpi
The hotels are part of Jeddah Historic District, a
programme which has paved the way in the regeneration of the old town of Al
Balad. Named House of Jokhdar, Kedwan and Al Rayess, each hotel has been
carefully reinvigorated with the work of historians and the knowledge of
locals, utilising local artists, carpenters and architects as well as locally
sourced products. The three properties thoughtfully reflect their original layout
and design whilst offering luxurious and effortlessly chic modernity.
House of Jokhdar
Comprising of nine light and airy rooms and suites,
including the Royal Suite, Dar Neem Suite and Deluxe Suite, the unique hotel
has been thoughtfully designed to provide a haven of tranquillity amid the
vibrant bustling streets of Al Balad. The luxury hotel has a stunning roof
terrace for guests' exclusive use, with stunning views of the historic centre.
Al Rayess
With six suites and rooms, Beit Al Rayess' grandeur
is evoked through its impressively high ceilings. Matching its surroundings,
the boutique hotel focuses on bridging the gap between old and new, tradition
and luxury. Whilst evoking tradition, the amenities and facilities provide
modern comforts for guests to feel at home during their stay.
Kedwan
A blend of heritage and contemporary, Beit Kedwan
boasts two guestrooms and can also be hired in its entirety, alongside multiple
living spaces where traditional Arabian design merges with modern comfort. Beit
Kedwan also has an exclusive rooftop terrace for guest use, offering an
enclosed space with views of the Arabian skyline where visitors can enjoy their
meals.
Each property offers a set menu for both lunch and
breakfast at one centralised restaurant for all three properties, where locals
and visitors can also enjoy the delicious local flavours.
All guests of the properties will be enveloped in
the heritage and history of the area, greeted with coffee and rose-infused tea
upon arrival and given the opportunity to personalise their visit ahead of
time. Everything from the chocolates in their airport transfer to the scent of
incense in their room is personalised, offering guests a home away from home.
All guests are also offered complimentary airport transfers on arrival and
departure.
The properties are part of a wider restoration of a
collection of heritage properties and represent the first 17 keys to open of a
further 165 keys that will belong to 34 heritage properties that will open by
2027.
Room rates begin at 2,200 SAR (approx.
£463) across all properties, excluding breakfast.
