Al Ahsa InterContinental named MICE Hotel of the Year – Saudi Arabia at TDM Travel Trade Excellence Awards 2024 – Middle East

With its expertise in providing impeccable service, Al Ahsa InterContinental was honoured with the MICE Hotel of the Year – Saudi Arabia award at the TDM Travel Trade Excellence Awards 2024 – Middle East.

Elegance, style and exceptional service
Being committed to maintaining its stature as an unrivalled hospitality institution, the hotel recently renovated its largest ballroom, the Qaser Al Moua’tamarat Conference and Convention Centre. This was in an effort to be able to offer a versatile space of 2,400 square metres that can be divided into smaller sections to accommodate a range of events.

With six additional meeting spaces, the venue provides flexibility for both intimate gatherings and large-scale conferences. From considering every decor detail to providing thoughtful gestures and private events, Al Ahsa InterContinental sets the stage for unforgettable celebrations.

The Qaser Al Moua’tamarat Conference and Convention Centre is a cornerstone of Al Ahsa InterContinental’s event capabilities. As the only large convention centre attached to a hotel, this expansive ballroom can be reconfigured into four soundproof sections and can accommodate up to 4,000 guests. Additionally, it features outdoor access suitable for heavy vehicles and equipment.

The renovation has already attracted high-profile events, including large investment conferences and key industry gatherings. These events have contributed significantly to the MICE budget and have played a key role in strengthening the region’s position as a hub for global business and tourism.

Over the past year, Al Ahsa InterContinental has also celebrated several important milestones, including hosting prestigious weddings, private high-profile events, and organising grand outdoor events in scenic locations. Additionally, the hotel welcomed international groups for bleisure travel, offering specially tailored experiences to cater to their preferences.

The hotel has integrated advanced technology into its offerings, ensuring a customised and enhanced experience whilst maintaining its esteemed reputation. This approach is part of a broader strategy to elevate guests’ experiences amidst the changing landscape of travel and hospitality.

Furthermore, Al Ahsa InterContinental takes pride in its luxurious accommodations, which include six opulent villas, newly renovated sophisticated suites, and exclusive clubrooms. In addition to these, the IHG Business Rewards programme further enhances the appeal of hosting events at the hotel, ensuring that every event is executed with the utmost precision and success. For customers, the allure of the IHG Business Rewards programme lies in its ability to offer valuable incentives and rewards, making each event not only successful but also highly rewarding for organisers and attendees alike.
