About Hospitality MEA

Hospitality MEA is built around one market: Saudi Arabia, where more hospitality development is happening than anywhere else in the region. We cover the GCC as the natural extension of that story, and the wider Middle East and Africa where it’s directly relevant to what’s happening in the Kingdom.

We were founded on a simple observation: Saudi Arabia is home to more hotel development than anywhere else in the region, yet no publication treats it as the main story rather than one section among many. We do.

Hospitality MEA started in Beirut and is reported today from Riyadh, at the centre of the market it covers.

What we cover

• Development: projects, pipelines, signings, investment
• Hotels: openings, operations, brands, resorts
• F&B: restaurants, chefs, concepts
• People: appointments, interviews, leadership
• Saudi Arabia: the market at the centre of everything we do

How we work

We report stories rather than republish them. Every piece carries a byline, and where we cover a signing, an opening, or an appointment, we aim to add something beyond the press release, a number, a source, context.
