subject: Holiday Inn Al Khobar [print this page] Conveniently placed to serve the needs of the commercial and industrial hubs of Al Khobar, Dhahran and Dammam, yet close to the malls, beaches and tourist attractions, we at Holiday Inn Al Khobar are the perfect choice for both leisure and conference bookings.
Just minutes away from Al Rashed Mall, Dhahran Mall and the chic Corniche promenade, we offer banqueting and conference facilities for up to 1000 delegates, in an attractive low-rise hotel with first-class dining, leisure and accommodation. With rooms boasting the latest high-tech business equipment, and WiFi throughout, were the perfect choice for international conferences.
However, we dont forget the city also has a large residential community, including a large number of second generation ex-pats. Luckily, we at Holiday Inn Al Khobar offer an equally high quality of service for private function bookings.
Why book meeting rooms at Holiday Inn Al Khobar?
Al Khobar began life as an old fishing port but the modern city, with its bustling thoroughfares, dates from the discovery of oil in 1942. Oil continues to be important to the economy, but there have been major changes in recent years, following the decision to reroute the heavy industrial port traffic to neighbouring Damman and Ras Tanura, where oil giant Saudi Aramco has its own dedicated port. Together with Dhahran, these constitute Al Khobars industrial region, leaving the city free to develop in other directions.
Al Khobar today is one of Saudi Arabias leading tourist destinations, its port reserved for passenger and light cargo traffic. The city centre is a hub for light commerce, finance, retail and tourism, complemented by the chic palm-lined tiled Corniche and clean, sandy beaches.
Attractions local to us at Holiday Inn Al Khobar
We at Holiday Inn Al Khobar are just a stones throw from the elegant Corniche, which with its avenue of street cafes and restaurants is the perfect place to relax outside the meeting room. We are also within easy reach of Dhahran and Al Rashed shopping malls, as well as traditional markets where you can shop for local crafts.
Alternatively, take a walk to the beautiful mosque on the waterfront, or drive along King Fahd Causeway, to view the waterfront from the offshore island. The best time to do this is at night, when the skyline comes alive with a billion glittering lights. Back at the hotel, you can take time out at our luxurious spa, gym or pool. The city has an eclectic range of restaurants, if you want change from our own superb dining room.
Local meetings and international conferences at Holiday Inn Al Khobar
The three main commercial districts of the city - Khobar, Subekha and Thuqba are all within easy reach of the conference facilities at our hotel, as is the residential area of Aqrabia, to whom we offer excellent private function rooms.
For delegates from further afield, we offer easy access to both King Fahd and Bahrain International Airports. Connected to the mainland by the dramatic King Fahd Causeway, the ancient island kingdom of Bahrain has shed its war-like past to become a centre for commerce, culture and tourism. A new causeway to Qatar opens soon.
We at Holiday Inn Al Khobar offer excellent conference facilities to delegates from both Saudi Arabia and overseas.
