Accor, a global leader in hospitality, is pleased to announce the signing of Sofitel Jabal Omar Makkah, a landmark property located in the heart of makkah, within walking distance of the holy mosque. Set to open in 2026, this hotel will be the largest sofitel property in the world, with 1,141 rooms and suites.
Sofitel Jabal Omar Makkah will occupy a prime location within the prestigious Jabal Omar master development, providing direct pedestrian access to the Haram, Islam’s holiest site. The hotel will feature 1,141 elegant rooms and suites across two towers – Sofitel Jabal Omar Makkah North and Sofitel Jabal Omar Makkah South – each offering breathtaking views of the Holy Mosque and the surrounding cityscape.
Designed to blend French art de vivre with Saudi cultural heritage, the hotel will feature a collection of refined restaurants and lounges, executive meeting facilities and fitness centers.
Across the towers, guests will discover six distinctive dining venues — including elegant all-day dining restaurants, a signature fine-dining destination celebrating French and Middle Eastern fusion cuisine, and intimate lobby lounges perfect for gatherings and reflection. A Club Millésime executive lounge will provide exclusive experiences for distinguished guests, combining culinary craftsmanship with personalized service.
Beyond dining, Sofitel Jabal Omar Makkah will offer curated sensory experiences that celebrate both French refinement and the spiritual essence of Makkah — from thoughtful wellness rituals and locally inspired teas to bespoke amenities crafted by Saudi artisans. Every detail, from fragrance to flavor, will be designed to honor Sofitel’s philosophy of Heartfelt and Committed Luxury with a French Zest.
The project is being developed in partnership with Jabal Omar Development Company (JODC), one of the largest publicly listed real estate firms in the Middle East and a key player in Makkah’s urban transformation. Renowned for its vision of creating world-class mixed-use developments that complement the spiritual essence of the Holy City, JODC is responsible for some of Makkah’s most prestigious hospitality, retail, and residential projects within the Jabal Omar masterplan.
This collaboration reflects a shared commitment between Accor and JODC to deliver an exceptional hospitality experience rooted in cultural respect, design excellence, and sustainable development.
With its scale and strategic location, Sofitel Makkah Jabal Omar represents one of the largest single-hotel developments under the Sofitel brand in the Middle East, underscoring Accor’s strong commitment to the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia’s Vision 2030 — driving economic diversification and enhancing the country’s global tourism appeal.
