About The Project

This 62-storey tower in the heart of Riyadh, will be one of only three tall towers in the city and contain the first Kempinski hotel in Saudi Arabia. The tower- which will be the tallest in the Saudi Arabian capital- will include 260 luxury apartments, a 297-room hotel, and up to 6,000 sqm of retail and a 2,000 sqm ballroom in an attached podium. The tower has a glass façade, while the podium utilises local Riyadh stone. The 19,315 sqm site is located on King Fahd Road near the rapidly developing King Abdullah Financial Center. The site will contain a total of 96,575 sqm of residential, hospitality, retail and offices. The Burj Rafal Kempinski Hotel will boast an upscale commercial tower with more than 300 luxury guest rooms and suites.
