Crowne Plaza Al Jubail opens in the Eastern Province
Perfect for business, a family getaway, or a weekend escape
Travelling to the Eastern Province? Crowne Plaza Al Jubail has officially opened its doors, offering a sleek new accommodation choice in one of Saudi Arabia’s busiest industrial cities.
Located close to Al Jubail’s main commercial districts, the hotel is ideally located for business travellers, yet it’s also within easy reach of some of the city’s finest leisure spots.
Think sunset walks along Al Nakheel Beach, breezy evenings at Fanateer Corniche, or a leisurely stroll through Deffi Park when you finally step away from emails.
Inside, the hotel features 190 guest rooms and suites, all designed for the modern traveller. The layouts follow Crowne Plaza’s signature style, with clearly defined areas for working, relaxing, and sleeping. In other words, there’s space to take a call, reply to a few messages, and still properly switch off afterwards.
Food is a big part of the experience, too. Al Basatin Restaurant handles all-day dining with a mix of international and local favourites, while Le Monde Café is the kind of spot you’ll want to pop by for coffee, pastries, or a quick, informal meeting.
For a more refined experience, La Palma Restaurant overlooks the pool and offers international fusion dishes with a touch of classic upscale dining flair. If leaving your room feels like too much hassle, there’s always 24-hour in-room dining.
When it’s time to reset, guests can enjoy an outdoor swimming pool and a fully equipped fitness centre, making it easy to keep routines going while travelling. Here with the family? There’s even a separate pool area for the kids.
The opening of Crowne Plaza Al Jubail also taps into a growing travel trend: blending work and leisure. According to Crowne Plaza’s latest research on “blended travel”, more travellers are looking for hotels that make it easy to switch between productivity and downtime – and that’s exactly the balance this new Jubail property is aiming to deliver, which is backed by the IHG One Rewards loyalty programme.
For travellers passing through Al Jubail, it adds another solid stay to the mix.
IHG currently operates 46 hotels in Saudi Arabia under seven brands: Six Senses, InterContinental, Kimpton, Crowne Plaza, Holiday Inn, Staybridge Suites, and voco.
