I am the type of traveler that likes to pay for luxury if it is worth it. Today I felt as if Ingot ripped off and I didn't appreciate it. I stayed at another 5* luxury hotel in the city and decided t go have a look at the ritz carlton. I took a hotel car and got charged 70... More

Excellent hotel, with beautiful architecture, huge gardens, lovely fountains, and lots of choice for restaurants. Buffet dinners in the main restaurant is of good quality and variety, and certainly unexpectedly relatively reasonably priced given the Ritz name. One of the most impressive entrances, approaches to the main door, lobbies, and decor. Rooms very reasonably priced. Close to the diplomatic quarter,... More

No doubt, it is palatial and sumptuous. The architecture is a mix of German palaces and Roman ones. Gardens are nice, lobby, etc. as described by other reviewers, luxury at its maximum. Service was very good and quick (check-in, requests for ironing machine, etc.) However, breakfast is too expensive (180 SAR) and has nothing more special than what you find... More

The RC Riyadh is a landmark and without a question the best hotel in town. Nevertheless, there are some areas for improvements. The room seems to be out of sync with the hotel being not matching in level of sophistication a luxury. A wall-mount hair dryer is something you see in holiday inns and motel 6 not a Ritz Carlton!!... More

Went to Riyadh on a business trip. This hotel is magnificent. Great service. Great food. The rooms are spacious and there is even a beautiful garden with a 600 years old Olive tree. The Arabic coffee, served with local dates, is delicious ... I was truly amazed ...

I usually use modest hotels, but if you are going to splurge, why not stay in a palace. Well situated next to the diplomatic quarter, usual Ritz customer service and incredible food. The whole stay was a pleasure.

Top-notch hotel! For me, the only drawback was that there weren't many choices around in the local area for dining. While the on-site restaurants are very good, they are extremely expensive and have limited menu options. My favorite amenity was the gym and while I didn't actually bowl, the bowling alley was the nicest I'd seen. Overall a stellar experience... More

Very luxurious, excellent service, probably the best hotel in Saudi Arabia. Comfortable rooms with many amenities, there is even an espresso machine in the room. Room service and valet service were prompt and efficient.
