The Jeddah Corniche Circuit is a dramatic street circuit along the Red Sea waterfront, one of the fastest and most challenging tracks on the Formula 1 calendar with average speeds exceeding 250 km/h. The circuit debuted in 2021 and has already produced some of the most exciting racing of the modern F1 era. Hotels in Jeddah provide circuit access and the opportunity to explore the UNESCO-listed Al-Balad historic district, the Red Sea coastline, and the extraordinary transformation of Saudi Arabia under Vision 2030.
Our Picks — Jeddah
North Corniche
The crown jewel of Jeddah's hotel scene, the Four Seasons occupies a prime Corniche position with suites that look out over the Red Sea and the famous King Fahd Fountain. The infinity pool appears to float above the sea, the restaurants consistently rank among the best in the city, and the beach club is the most exclusive in Jeddah.
North Corniche
The Rosewood brand's first Saudi property brings its signature sense of residential luxury to Jeddah's premium north Corniche, with interiors that reference the carved coral architecture of Al-Balad in a contemporary register. The Sense spa, the rooftop pool terrace, and the all-day dining restaurant are all exceptional.
Sharm Obhur Marina
Jeddah's most glamorous waterfront hotel sits at the mouth of the Sharm Obhur creek with marina access, a beach club, and a spa that is the city's most comprehensive. The location north of the city centre means it attracts a Red Sea-focused clientele: divers, sailors, and those who come primarily for the water.
Corniche
A Jeddah institution since 1977, the Hilton Corniche remains one of the city's most popular business hotels thanks to its central position, comprehensive conference facilities, and the sheer scale of its pool and beach operations. The Corniche-facing rooms have views of the fountain display that remain spectacular regardless of how many times you've seen it.
Medina Road
A comprehensive five-star in the heart of Jeddah's business and commercial district, the Marriott delivers the brand's trademark reliability with particularly strong conference and event facilities that make it the top choice for large corporate gatherings. The indoor and outdoor pools, the spa, and the multiple dining options cover every need.
City Centre
Marriott's Autograph Collection brings a more characterful luxury experience to downtown Jeddah, with lobby galleries showcasing contemporary Saudi art, rooms designed by prominent Arab architects, and a rooftop pool with city views. It's the most culturally engaged hotel in Jeddah and the best base for exploring Al-Balad.
