NEOM in Saudi Arabia will be home to the Kingdom's first Yotel hotel, it has been announced.

Yotel will open the doors on the NEOM property in 2025 at the Oxagon development in Saudi Arabia.

It will be the first hotel in Oxagon, which will be the home of advanced and clean industries in NEOM...

The hotel's location is at the heart of the integrated live-work-play Research and Innovation (R&I) district of Oxagon with a dedicated R&I campus.

Strategically located on NEOM's Red Sea coast, Oxagon is reimagining the traditional industrial city by developing multiple thriving residential and business communities.

Additional to the R&I district, the city will be home to a next generation port with a fully automated and integrated supply chain and logistics network...

Upon check-in, guests at the 300-room hotel will be greeted by the brand's signature robotic concierge.

Guests will also have motorised smart beds, access to Komyuniti – the brand's signature multi-functional dining and co-working space, a 24-hour fitness centre, network space and more.

The surrounding areas will be walkable and connected to nearby communities through advanced, active, micro and autonomous mobility solutions.

The partnership marks the latest hotel agreement with NEOM's Hotel Development, the division responsible for building a future-centric hospitality ecosystem in the Northwest corner of Saudi Arabia...

Oxagon will be one of several cities and destinations within the NEOM development, all set to be powered by renewable energy sources, amplifying Saudi Arabia's plan to sustainably diversify its economy, as part of its Vision 2030 strategy.

The new announcement signifies Yotel's ambition to grow both management and franchised projects in the Middle East region, as part of its larger strategy to reach 50 hotels by 2025.

I too like YOTEL. Miles better than hanging out in the business lounge.

When I think ‘vacation’ Saudi Arabia does not come to mind.

Saudi Arabia is more peaceful and safer than 99% of American big cities.
