The St. Regis Riyadh is a small luxury hotel with 83 rooms at the entrance of the Diplomatic Quarter in the Via Riyadh complex, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. It opened in November 2023 as the first St. Regis in the kingdom. Via Riyadh is a lifestyle destination with boutiques and restaurants, and the neighbouring Diplomatic Quarter offers green streets and embassies. The location lies west of central Olaya, roughly 20 to 30 minutes by car from Kingdom Centre, and King Khalid International Airport is around 40 kilometres away.
The hotel's compact size gives it an intimate, residential character that contrasts with Riyadh's larger tower hotels. It targets luxury leisure travellers, senior business visitors and diplomats who value privacy and personal service. Rooms are offered as Deluxe rooms, Executive suites and Suites, with indicative rates between SAR 1,500 and SAR 3,750 per night, placing it at the top of the city's price range.
Amenities include a spa, a fitness centre, restaurants and the brand's signature butler service, along with access to the boutiques and restaurants of Via Riyadh. Dining on site is aimed at a high-end clientele, with refined international and regional cooking and a quality breakfast. Alcohol is not served, in keeping with Saudi law, so beverage menus emphasise mocktails, coffee and tea.
Service is personalised, with butlers assigned to help with unpacking, reservations and special requests. The Via Riyadh setting means that dining and shopping are available on foot within the complex, which is useful in a city where walking is otherwise limited. Visitors entering the Diplomatic Quarter should carry identification, as security checks apply. Rates vary by season and by major events, so booking early is advisable.
