The hotel is very clean and truly amazing. One of the best lobbies I’ve seen, with excellent facilities that really stand out. Overall, the common areas are impressive and well maintained. The only downside was that the room felt a bit used and could benefit from some updates. Still, a great stay overall.

The Ritz-Carlton in Riyadh is a dreamingly beautiful hotel that elevates hospitality to a whole new level—one we have never experienced anywhere else in the world. The staff make every moment unforgettable, and as a guest you truly feel like part of the family. Our heartfelt thanks go especially to Makin, as well as to Najla and Aysha from Guest Relations, as well as to Ahmed at the check-in desk and Kareem from the Bowling Area.

Amazing hotel - MUST stay here!
We LOVED this palatial property. The lobby florals were stunning and changed daily. We got a room overlooking the front fountains which I recommend. The swimming pool is the largest & fanciest I’ve ever seen. The service was incredible. Alesia in the lobby was very helpful and kind. Fascial the butler was equally attentive and funny. Shukran for a fabulous stay.

The entrance of the room was dirty.
The welcome was very poor although the hotel wasn’t crowded + my check in was after rush hour time.
No one was there to take the luggage! Until I had to ask for one!!
NOT A RITZ EXPERIENCE AT ALL!

Is a Palace!!! Beautiful, stunning and the service is very exceptional and exclusive attention, you realize that the Saudi people are very happy that you are visiting their country and explain with detail their culture, and history. Me and my family were so satisfied with their friendship and respectful interaction. Saudi Arabia is very safe and friendly country and we will be back next time for a different town and keep appreciating their culture!!!!

Unfortunately lacking customer understanding
Made a mistake and reserved the Ritz-Carlton in Riyadh instead of Jeddah. I arrived only 2 min later at the reception in Jeddah - they contacted the Riyadh hotel, but they showed zero support or flexibility. No cancellation possible. I asked if I could at least change the date and come another time - they also refused.
I would have expected a more customer friendly approach from the Ritz-Carlton.
