The opening of Liwa Executive Suites is part of HMH's strategic expansion plan that includes adding more than 2000 rooms to its existing supply before the end of the year.
Mr Noblet said, "With a strong presence in key markets such as Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Lebanon, we have successfully made our mark in the region. Our rapid expansion highlights the success of our distinctive positioning in the highly challenging economic scenario."
