Minor Hotels, a global hospitality group with a portfolio of over 640 properties in operation and pipeline across 60 countries, has announced the signing of Oaks Residences Riyadh, marking a significant addition to its growing portfolio in Saudi Arabia. The agreement, signed in partnership with Tabarak Holding, also includes future projects in key locations in Cairo, Egypt under the NH Collection brand.
The signing took place during the TOURISE Summit, powered by the Saudi Ministry of Tourism, and was attended by Dillip Rajakarier, CEO of Minor Hotels and Group CEO of Minor International, and by the chairman of Tabarak Holding Mr.Aly El Shorbany and Group VPs. This occasion highlights both groups' alignment with the region's rapidly evolving tourism landscape.
Located in the heart of the Saudi capital, the Oaks Residences Riyadh will feature 146 upscale residences designed for long-stay comfort, complemented by premium lifestyle amenities including a swimming pool, fitness centre, retail and leisure spaces. The property is an immediate conversion project and is expected to welcome residents in 2026.

This project represents an exciting opportunity to extend the Oaks brand into a key regional market and further support the Kingdom's ambitions for growth and diversification."
As part of the same agreement, Minor Hotels and Tabarak Holding will also introduce the NH Collection brand to Egypt. Two properties, currently in the planning and design phase, are expected to open in 2029, bringing together modern design, premium comfort, and the brand's signature European sophistication.
