Riyadh, Saudi Arabia (10th December 2024): As one of the world's leading hotel management companies, Palladium Hotel Group is set to charter new territories following its agreement with Hard Rock International to operate hotels under Hard Rock Hotels and Reverb Hotels in Saudi Arabia. Palladium Hotel Group will be infusing the region's hospitality market with over 50 years of expertise, following a record-breaking 2023 with an annual revenue of 1.069 billion euros. The group is actively seeking investors and real estate partners with properties that align with the Hard Rock International brand's bold, lifestyle-focused appeal.
Palladium Hotel Group's impressive portfolio spans over 40 hotels and 13,000 rooms across seven countries, managed under ten distinctive brands, including TRS Hotels, Ushuaïa Unexpected Hotels, and BLESS Collection Hotels. Renowned for delivering exceptional guest experiences and prioritising team wellbeing, the group consistently upholds the highest standards in every venture. This global expertise positions the group as a key player in introducing innovative hospitality solutions to Saudi Arabia's evolving market.
The collaboration builds on a decade-long relationship, with Palladium Hotel Group already managing three standout Hard Rock Hotels in Spain, - Ibiza, Tenerife, and Marbella. The expansion into Saudi Arabia aims to merge Hard Rock International's signature world-class entertainment and cutting-edge designs with Palladium Hotel Group's hospitality managing expertise. Together, they aspire to redefine travel experiences for modern guests seeking something fresh and exciting.
