VIA Riyadh! Here’s Everything You’ve Got To Know About Riyadh’s Newest Luxury Destination That Everyone’s Been Raving About
Riyadh’s got a new luxe shopping address in the form of Via Riyadh, which already has everyone buzzing. And guess what? It hasn’t even officially opened yet; expect that sometime in the middle of February.
It’s been a while since a new place of this scale has opened in the city (okay, a month to be precise). Yup, Riyadh has set the bar so high. So anyway, here’s what the place is all about:
First up, it will be home to the kingdom’s first St. Regis Hotel. The 83-room hotel is expected to open in the second half of this year.
The place also houses close to two dozen high-fashion boutiques. This is retail therapy in overdrive.

If that isn’t enough, there’s also a swanky cinema where you can unwind after a day of shopping and feasting.

Riyadh’s all about great food, and how can that be missing out here? There will be 17 restaurants, including some of the world’s top fine-dining establishments.

But VIA Riyadh isn’t just about luxury and shopping. It also holds significant cultural significance as the birthplace of the Second Saudi State during the 1820s. Get ready to experience a little bit of Saudi history while you revel in luxury at VIA Riyadh!
