The Ritz-Carlton, Riyadh
Anyone who wants to reside like royalty is well served by the Ritz Carlton anyway. But the famous hotel chain in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, almost outdoes itself: You almost have to look twice not to think you're standing in front of Buckingham Palace in London. A driveway lined with palm trees and glamorous lanterns leads straight to the impressive building, which shows itself in its full glory with its fulminant size and two towers. The fountain in front of the house underscores the princely ambience. The interior is even more pompous: high ceilings decorated with stucco, mighty columns and floors painted with patterns create an overwhelming picture. Plenty of huge and lavishly designed rooms, a wonderful garden area as well as an equally luxurious spa area give you an idea of what an exciting time awaits you at the Ritz Carlton Riyadh.
