11/07/2019 Argaam

 

InterContinental Hotels Group (IHG) signed an agreement with Maad International to open the world’s largest voco hotel in Makkah.

 

Operational in early 2020, the 4,200-room hotel will cater to the growing number of religious tourists in Saudi Arabia.

 

voco Makkah will occupy a location within the greater Maad Hospitality Towers Development, a mega mixed-used development that includes restaurants, lounge areas, event halls and separate male and female prayer halls. 

 

“We look forward to catering to the influx of pilgrims at voco Makkah, which will provide a welcoming, comfortable and a reliably different experience during the Hajj and Umrah seasons,” Pascal Gauvin, managing director, India, Middle East & Africa at IHG said.

 

After the signing of voco Al Khobar earlier this year, voco Makkah will be the second voco branded hotel in Saudi Arabia. voco Makkah will also be IHG’s fourth hotel in Makkah.
