Movenpick Hotel Al Khobar is an elegant hotel, well situated on the beautiful Corniche in Al Khobar, Saudi Arabia.

Location

The hotel is conveniently located in the heart of the city on the vibrant city’s popular Corniche, buzzing with shopping malls and restaurants. The nearest airport to the hotel is King Fahad International Airport Dammam which is just 55 km away. If you are travelling from London you can fly direct to Riyadh in just over 6 hours and then either drive to Al-Khobar in 4 hours or fly in just over an hour.

Style & Character

The twelve-story hotel is sophisticated, luxurious and contemporary. You are welcomed by a beautiful waterfall outside the hotel and inside it’s refined and comfortable.

Service & Facilities

The hotel enjoys state-of-the-art wellness and recreation facilities, including a fitness centre, steam room, sauna, indoor swimming pool and a squash court – although please be aware that sport and leisure facilities are available for men only for the time being. The hotel is suitable for leisure and business travellers alike and includes ten flexible meetings and events halls. They really pride themselves on service here, it is exemplary; professional and courteous with a personal touch.

The entry-level Deluxe Rooms are 40 m² or the Premium Rooms also offer a sitting area and king-sized bed and are 60 m², connecting Family rooms are available too. If you want to treat yourself to a suite (and I’d certainly recommend that you do, they are, of course, much more luxurious and spacious!) choose from: an Executive Suite at 107 m², the 2-bed Silver Royal Suite at 136 m² or the most exclusive and prestigious penthouse Gold Royal Suite; 160 m² of luxury with 2 bedrooms and panoramic views.
