The new Riyadh hotel has 191 rooms including serviced apartments and duplex villas. Whether you’re after a short city break, or a longer term stay, Mansard Riyadh aims to cater to all kinds of guests. The duplex villas are spread out over 230 square metres on two floors and feature a fully equipped kitchen, a dining room with a table for six, living room and powder room. The second floor has three bedrooms with en suite bathrooms.

Wondering about the name? Mansard Riyadh, A Radisson Collection Hotel draws inspiration from the incredible squares of Paris, including Concorde, Opéra and Vendôme, and the signature Mansard roofline of Paris in the mid-1800s. Mansard roofs feature two slopes on every side, with the lower slope being considerably steeper than the upper. The architectural design has become a defining part of the Paris skyline. Now, we get it in Riyadh. Bonjour.

Mansard Riyadh opens with a range of amenities including six meeting rooms overlooking the hotel’s outdoor plaza. Additionally, there is free Wi-Fi, customisable meeting rooms and The Lounge, where guests can enjoy Arabic and international dishes throughout the day.

And there’s even more to come. Later this year, New York City’s famed American-Italian eatery Carbone will open at Mansard Riyadh along with SoHo’s popular brunch spot Sadelle’s. 

This is the second Radisson Collection hotel in Riyadh, following Nofa Resort. Besides Mansard Riyadh, there are many new hotels coming to Riyadh and the rest of the Kingdom. Rosewood Riyadh is opening in 2025, Anantara is expanding into Diriyah Gate and an Armani hotel is coming to Diriyah, too.
