Al Qimmah Hospitality and Amwaj Real Estate Company, both subsidiaries of BinDawood Trading, have announced a strategic partnership with Marriott International to open the world’s largest Courtyard by Marriott hotel in Mecca, Saudi Arabia.

This partnership marks a significant milestone in the development of Saudi Arabia’s tourism sector, addressing the growing demand for accommodation. The flagship project, the Courtyard by Marriott Makkah Al Naseem, is a testament to this ambition.

This future hospitality giant, boasting 2,179 rooms spread across seven interconnected towers, will be the largest of its kind. Scheduled to open in 2026, it will offer a range of amenities, including a restaurant seating over 1,800 guests, a spacious lounge, and a “Grab n’ Go” market.

By developing world-class hospitality infrastructure, Al Qimmah Hospitality is fully aligned with the Kingdom’s Vision 2030, which aims to attract 30 million religious tourists by 2030. With its expertise in hotel management and real estate development, the group is actively contributing to the growth of Saudi Arabia’s tourism sector, undertaking large-scale projects that drive the development of the tourism industry.

In December 2024, Marriott signed an agreement with Knowledge Economic City (KEC) to open three hotels in Madinah, the holy city. These projects, which will add over 1,200 rooms, are part of the KEC development and will be spread across three of the company’s brands: Courtyard by Marriott, Four Points by Sheraton, and Residence Inn by Marriott.

“The signing of the agreement reflects the the Kingdom’s Vision 2030 framework which aims to position the country as a global hub for religious and cultural tourism and continues to promote cultured real estate development. We are constructing high-quality towers within the Al Naseem District, as part of our ongoing commitment to serve guests and travelers to the Holy Mosque. This will be one of our largest developments to date and continuation of our strategic collaboration with Marriott International.” – Dr. Abdul Razzaq BinDawood, Chairman of Al Qimmah

“We are pleased to build on our relationship with Al Qimmah Hospitality and BinDawood Trading with this landmark agreement to open the world’s largest Courtyard by Marriott in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. This agreement underscores Marriott International’s commitment to supporting the growth of the Kingdom’s tourism sector and reinforces the continued demand we are seeing for our portfolio of brands in the Holy City of Makkah.” – Chadi Hauch, Regional Vice President, Lodging Development, Middle East, Marriott International
