“Novotel Thakher Makkah” Hotel Gears Up for Umrah Season after a Successful Hajj Season

Novotel Thakher Makkah Hotel, the world’s largest in terms of the number of rooms, located in ‘Thakher Makkah’ project in the Holy City of Makkah, gears up for Umrah season after the impressive conclusion of this year’s Hajj season, where the hotel occupancy was 100% during the season and received more than 1800 guests of the Custodian of the Holy Mosques, and double the number of Al Rahman guests.

Eng. Abdulaziz bin Saleh Al-Aboudi, the CEO of Thakher Development Company, stated that hospitality and real estate sectors in the Holy City of Makkah witnessed a strong performance during this year’s Hajj season. The Holy City of Makkah received over two million pilgrims this year, and it is expected that the success will continue during the Umrah season.

Eng. Al-Aboudi, attributed this remarkable performance to several factors, most notably the Ministry of Hajj and Umrah latest decisions such as issuing Umrah visas in less than 24 hours, and extending the duration of Umrah visa from 30 days to 90 days, as well as enabling the guests to travel freely within the Kingdom, to explore its unique cultural diversity and enrich their religious and cultural experiences.

Eng. Al-Aboudi added: “We at Thakher Development Company, are dedicated to our work in the project, making every effort to meet the expectations of investors, pilgrims, Umrah performers, and visitors to the Holy City of Makkah.”

Among the international hotels located in Thakher Makkah project, are the Radisson Hotel and the Park Inn by Radisson Hotel.

Thakher Makkah’s project plays as a contributor to Saudi Arabia’s ambitious Vision 2030, which aims to host 30 million Umrah performers and six million pilgrims by 2030.” The project is spanning over an area of 320,000 sqm. Upon completion, it will include about 100 land plots of various uses for hotels, residential, commercial, and service-related areas. Residential and hotel apartments units will be available in various categories, and the units will be also available for ownership.
