Words by Panos Loupasis, Market Managing Director Türkiye, Middle East & Africa, Wyndham
As we look back on recent celebrations of the National Day of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, it is a momentous occasion to reflect on the rich cultural heritage of this great nation. In doing so, we recognise that hospitality and culture share a unique symbiosis, and it is through the fusion of these elements that we can truly celebrate and immerse ourselves in the essence of Kingdom’s culture.
As such, the hospitality sector plays a pivotal role in fostering a deeper connection between travelers and the cultural tapestry of Saudi Arabia. It is through genuine interactions, experiences, and a commitment to preserving and sharing the Kingdom’s traditions that we can make every visit to Saudi Arabia truly memorable.
One of the greatest strengths of Saudi Arabia is its cultural diversity. From the bustling souks of Riyadh to the serene deserts of the Empty Quarter, each region has its own unique charm. Hospitality providers must embrace this diversity by showcasing local traditions, cuisine, and artistry. By doing so, they enable visitors to experience the rich mosaic of Saudi culture first hand.
The recent opening of Ramada Encore by Wyndham, in Al Khobar Corniche, is a testament to our commitment to this cause. This stunning addition to our hospitality family is not just a place to stay; it is a platform for cultural immersion.
In order to truly bridge the gap between hotel stays and cultural immersion region-wide, it is crucial for the hospitality sector to engage with local communities. By collaborating with local artisans, supporting cultural festivals, and providing training and employment opportunities, we can build a stronger bridge between our guests and the cultural wealth of Saudi Arabia.
In conclusion, the fusion of hospitality and culture is the key to unlocking the true magic of Saudi Arabia. By promoting cultural experiences, embracing diversity, engaging with local communities, and preserving traditions, we can create a meaningful connection between our guests and the Kingdom’s captivating culture.
Together, we can make every visit to Saudi Arabia a journey of cultural immersion and celebration.
