The opening of The Jeddah EDITION on May 2, 2024, marks a
pivotal moment; reflecting Saudi Arabia's quest for economic and
societal diversification, the property is a physical representation
of the country’s pledge to empower its citizens and foster growth.
Jeddah, with its rich history as the gateway to Mecca and a
bustling hub of trade and culture, epitomizes the essence of
"Jeddah Ghair" - a city that defies convention and embraces
difference. In this dynamic metropolis, where tradition meets
modernity, EDITION's arrival signifies a new dawn.
As the world's perception of Saudi Arabia evolves, The Jeddah
EDITION stands as a symbol of the Kingdom's journey towards a
progressive future. With its multicultural ethos and innovative
approach, this new addition to the EDITION family promises to
redefine hospitality in the region, setting the stage for an era of
growth and prosperity.
The unveiling of The Jeddah EDITION represents an exceptional
collaboration between Marriott International, EDITION Hotels, and
Yabu Pushelberg, uniting under the visionary leadership of Sela and
its Managing Director, Dr. Rakan Al Harthi. The partnership
epitomizes a delicate balance, merging Jeddah’s vibrant culture and
rich traditions with the brand’s fervent spirit, sophistication,
and passion for pushing boundaries. From this fusion emerges a
singular entity, transcending the sum of its parts to seamlessly
blend the essence of the East with the innovation of the West,
creating an unparalleled hospitality experience.
Josh Fluhr, EDITION's Senior Vice President and Global Managing
Director, comments, "In this transformative time in the country's
rich history, we're thrilled to further expand the EDITION brand in
Saudi Arabia. Through our inspired partnership with Dr. Rakan Al
Harthi and his team, we're bringing EDITION's unique concept to
Jeddah, which is destined to evolve the luxury standard in the
Kingdom."
The Jeddah EDITION boosts Saudi Arabia’s exciting journey of
transformation where refined sophistication, style and a new era of
quiet luxury collide. Located on the Jeddah Corniche - a 30km
coastal resort area along the Red Sea - the urban resort is steps
from the Jeddah Art Promenade, and a short drive from destinations
like Al-Balad, a UNESCO Heritage site in the historic part of the
city, and The Red Sea Mall. Perched atop one of the most exciting
corners of the Saudi Arabian Grand Prix Circuit - the fastest
Formula 1 track – adjacent to the Jeddah Yacht Club and Marina, the
hotel settles neatly into its location within a sleek low-rise
building designed to resemble a superyacht. As night falls, the
Marina transforms into a destination of hospitality where locals
enjoy late evenings of dining and shopping along the waterside.
Amid an oasis of landscaped gardens interspersed with
eight-metre-tall palm trees, the property is creatively programmed
and concepted by EDITION, and unfolds like a four-story theatrical
piece. Designed in partnership between EDITION and international
design studio Yabu Pushelberg, the hotel remains firmly rooted in
the EDITION brand’s strong sense of refined simplicity and style.
The property showcases 52 rooms and 11 suites including two
Penthouses, a rooftop terrace with a pool, spa, gym, as well as two
lounges and a signature restaurant with meticulously curated
culinary concepts by acclaimed New York chef, Cédric
Vongerichten.
As with all EDITION properties, the Lobby areas serve as the
hotel’s lively beating heart, enveloping guests with the property’s
signature scent upon entry into the open-flow lobby. Beneath
soaring 12-metre-high ceilings, a large orange acrylic sphere by
artist Vincent Leroy takes centre stage. Inspired by Jeddah’s
famous sunrises and sunsets, the morning light radiates through the
installation, dispersing a warm spherical glow onto clean-lined,
custom-brushed white oak walls and travertine floors. The reception
area – anchored by a walnut panelled niche and sculptural solid
walnut desk – is met with upholstered wingback chairs intimately
grouped with a prized Iranian silk Persian rug as well as Christian
Liaigre console and lighting. The ground floor elevator lobby
creates a picturesque moment of its own, boasting a molded and
oxidized tinted glass mirror by artist Christopher Gaignon.
Adjacent to the lobby is the light-filled Lobby Lounge, which
seamlessly flows from one convivial space to the next. Flanked by
two large-scale golden acrylic wooden panel paintings by New York
City-based artist John Jackson, the pieces reflect the evolving
daylight, amplifying the golden yellow hues while paying homage to
both Saudi Arabian culture and Jeddah’s unforgettable sunsets. In
an elegant contrast, the space is dotted with curvilinear
Molteni&C sofas, Henge tables, and white linen Avenue Road club
chairs arranged around white marble coffee tables.
In the adjoining Lobby Bar, a black-and-white photography series
by artist Richard Phibbs, an original royal purple billiard table
by Blatt Billiards, and a custom gold leaf framed mirror above a
Nero Marquina marble counter set the stage. Oak coffee tables and
Christian Liaigre furniture in the warm and inviting space are
layered with American black walnut wood flooring, plaster walls
with moulding details, and full-height sheer white linen drapery.
From day to night, the Lobby Bar will be the social nexus of the
city, where guests will indulge in handcrafted beverages, coffee by
a local roaster, and a selection of teas served alongside a menu of
light bites and an incredible array of pastries. Outside, the
expansive alfresco terrace, which spans the entirety of the
building, provides a seamless flow of connection across the venues,
with a bocce ball court, Red Sea vistas and views of the Floating
Mosque.
Maritime, a name that reflects the spirit of culinary
exploration, is the hotel’s signature contemporary French-Asian
restaurant concepted by renowned chef Cédric Vongerichten.
Recognized by Zagat as one of the top 30 chefs under 30, chef
Cédric has honed his craft in some of the most celebrated kitchens
around the world, including three-Michelin-starred El Bulli in
Spain. His distinguished career at the most prestigious restaurants
echoes his prolific chef and restaurateur father, Jean-Georges
Vongerichten.
“Maritime is inspired by my love of Asian flavours, which began
during my years living in Bangkok, in harmony with my passion for
French cooking techniques. I’ve created a menu that reflects
diverse cultures and features the aromatic spices of the region
alongside the finest local ingredients” says chef Cédric
Vongerichten.
Maritime, open from sunrise to late evening, serves perfectly
executed dishes designed to be shared. Spice is at the forefront,
adding depth, flavour and aroma while merging Asian and Arabian
sensibilities. Explore exquisite culinary creations like local
shrimp dumplings accompanied by lemongrass beurre blanc and caviar,
complemented by innovative non-alcoholic beverages such as the
Saffron Spritz, featuring ginger honey and fresh saffron to
tantalize your taste buds. The space holds two private dining rooms
and an open show-kitchen; the design mirrors the cultural abundance
of the culinary offerings. The interior reveals curved light plum
velvet banquettes, walnut dining tables, and Thonet chairs with
natural caning. Rich details such as distressed glass mirrors,
potted banana leaf plants, blue and white Chinese pottery, and a
prized Iranian silk Persian rug beneath the communal dining table
complete the lively space. Overlooking the Red Sea, the
restaurant’s terrace is ensconced by potted plants and over
150-year-old olive trees, while pink bougainvillea-covered pergolas
provide protection from the blazing sun as long lunches
effortlessly flow into golden hour drinks and dreamy dinners.
Follow the oak-panelled corridor to a partition of teal blue
velvet drapes leading to The Den, a secluded haven for cigar
aficionados to unwind. Unique to the EDITION portfolio, the
intimate, low-lit lounge is dressed in custom tufted teal blue
velvet banquettes and outfitted with rich brown armchairs and
stools. The walls are adorned with whimsical photographs by artist
Christian Vieler encased in classical ornate frames that depict the
unbridled joy of dogs catching treats, adding a quaint layer to the
space. From the lacquered rosewood countertop, bespoke coffees and
non-alcoholic beverages, such as The Den Sour, are best enjoyed
with light bites from chef Cédric Vongerichten, followed by a hand
rolled cigar underneath the stars on the private terrace, creating
a dream escape for cigar lovers near and far.
Nestled between the hotel’s third and fourth floors lie the 52
rooms and 11 suites, making for the ultimate urban retreat. Rooms
are an understated haven that spotlights the artistry and
craftmanship of EDITION’s signature design approach, with
travertine bathrooms seamlessly leading to bright, white oak spaces
and terraces boasting vista views to take in either the Red Sea or
the F1 track. Each room is masterfully designed to be a calming
space. Layered with travertine flooring, white oiled oak wall
panelling embellished with black-and-white photographs of old
Jeddah, and custom furnishings such as the inset leather
headboards, accommodations are a vision of muted luxury.
Freestanding bathtubs and signature EDITION Le Labo toiletries
complete the serene enclave.
The Penthouse and Royal Penthouse set The Jeddah EDITION apart,
providing a truly indulgent experience like no other. Spread over
240 sqm, the two-bedroom Penthouse encompasses two ensuite
bathrooms and features a bright, spacious living room with a
Christophe Delcourt sofa, Nienkemper metal coffee table and Liaigre
bronze armchair and side stools. The exquisite dining room includes
a 10-seat white marble table, and an additional seating area is
equipped with Liaigre black wood lounge chairs, white linen
upholstery, and a Holly Hunt Tudor coffee table. An expansive and
lushly landscaped wrap-around terrace overlooking the Red Sea,
Jeddah Yacht Club, and Formula 1 racetrack features two separate
lounge areas perfect for private dining. There is also direct
access to a private staircase to the pool deck and The Roof.
At the other end of the property, also offering front-row seats
to the Grand Prix as well as views of the Red Sea and revered
Floating Mosque, Al Rahmah, sits the Royal Penthouse, a spectacular
600 sqm duplex set over the third and fourth floors. Curated to
cater to your every need, the Royal Penthouse features an elegantly
landscaped terrace with an eating area and arrangement of living
spaces along with private elevator access, an in-suite pantry, and
a lower-level room for private security. Bright interiors unfurl to
include a casual and formal sitting room, dining room, and two
bedrooms with their own living rooms, extensive walk-in wardrobes,
indulgent bathrooms, and blissful views of the Red Sea. In true
EDITION fashion, the Penthouses are elegant and refined in neutral
tones elevated with curated artwork and furnishings by Christophe
Delcourt and Christian Liaigre. Floor-to-ceiling shelves with
l’objets d’art and an array of books covering everything from
fashion to architecture and art polish the space, giving a
residential feel.
On the fourth floor, The Roof is a dreamy Mediterranean beach
club-inspired escape. Perfect for locals and travellers alike, it
features a series of private nooks and lounges ensconced by
greenery against panoramic views of the vibrant Marina, Jeddah
Yacht Club and F1 track. A sleek 14-metre pool is lined with
sunbeds, bougainvillea-shaded cabanas, and dotted with
Mediterranean-style potted plants. The menu features a variety of
wood-fire cooked a la carte and sharing dishes, such as the grilled
octopus served with fingerling potatoes topped with labneh, to be
enjoyed after a day spent drinking frozen pressed juices or iced
frappés poolside. The fourth floor is also home to a gym and The
Spa where its warm walnut panelling and soft lighting beckons. An
intimate and lowkey space with three treatment rooms - each with
its own changing areas - the entrance is decorated with paintings
by Copenhagen-based Anne Nowak while the menu comprises everything
from facials to massages, using Natura Bissé products from
Barcelona.
As The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia enters a progressive new era, The
Jeddah EDITION is a one-of-a-kind hotel supporting Saudi Arabia’s
