About Rosewood Jeddah

Rosewood Jeddah is a window into the culture of Saudi Arabia. Set along the Corniche, the city’s most celebrated waterfront, the stay sits between shore and sky, opening onto unobstructed views of the Red Sea. The sculptural façade of vertical fins, inspired by intricately carved mashrabiya screens, rises high above the coastline. Inside, the 127 rooms and suites blend modern comfort with elegant Arabic design. Gastronomy at three distinct destinations is equally rooted in the Hejaz region: from hibiscus-infused drinks with panoramic vistas at Soleil to seafood grilled over an open flame at Al Malaki Lounge. Guests are invited to experience modern Jeddah from new perspectives, whether through a historic walking tour, Arabic calligraphy class or serene swim in the rooftop pool.
